10mins: Introduction - Beginner questions 'What's your name, how old are you, where are you from, have you got any brothers or sisters? What's your favourite day of the week? What do you usually do on this day? What's one thing you like? One thing you don't like?

• Extension: Have students write two questions using 'wh' question words. Then, students trade papers with a classmate and write the responses to their questions.

05mins: Review: Superlatives - Have each student say one superlative sentence regarding the students in the class. (Nice sentences only).

10mins: Review: Have students stand in a circle. Use two different colored bean bags. Indicate that one colour means the 'comparative' and the other colour means the 'superlative'. Say an adjective, and toss the bean bags to two different students. They must say either the comparative or superlative of the adjective you've said, depending on the colour of the bean bag. If a student is incorrect, they are eliminated.

10mins: Pre-teach: Family words. Draw and label a picture of your family on the whiteboard. Have students quickly sketch their own families, and write some sentences describing them. (E.g. I've got an older sister, I've got a younger brother, etc.)

10mins: Worksheet: page 28 - The Simpson Family

10mins: Guess who - Have students write all their family members on a piece of paper (older sister, younger brother, mum dad). Ask students to keep the information a secret. Then, collect the papers. The teacher will choose one randomly and read the information. Students have to guess who it belongs to!

05mins: Warm Down: Goodbye + points. Pack up supplies, help students prepare to leave and straighten out the classroom.
