Hi, everybody!

Where’s Carlota?

This week we continued talking about sports.

Depending on the sport we use the verbs, Go, Do or Play.

GO	PLAY	DO
windsurfing	rugby	karate
climbing	ice hockey	aerobics
scuba diving	table tennis	gymnastics
swimming	badminton	judo
cycling	squash	yoga

Yes, we got the right rule all together!

We use Go + ing, except fencing and boxing. We don’t go fencing or go boxing

How do you get the name of the person who practises the sport? What’s the name of the sport?

 Look at this chart:

• In some sports you hit the ball.

           What do you hit the ball with? A bat, a stick, a club, your hand?

• In other sports you kick the ball (you use your feet). Can you think of  any examples?
• In other sports you throw the ball, as in handball.

We have learnt a lot about sports.

Name the places, equipment and clothes you use for the sports below:

Playing golf- skiing – ice hockey- aerobics- basketball- tennis- football- diving – boxing

And we played: Guess who is it? Reviewing appearance vocabulary.

Don’t forget to do homework!

For two reasons: it’ll help you to remember what we studied and also you’ll get 2 points for the Games!!

For homework you are going to tell the class about a sport. It could be your favourite or not. You can’t talk about football; choose a different one, Please!!

Write a little composition on a piece of paper, saying how you play the game, number of teams, place, equipment and clothes. Don’t forget to draw a picture or stick a photo.

Game 2 Listening : guessing the name of the sport and gap filling.

Player 1	10

Congratulations Carlos!  You did your homework so you got two more points!
