Discussion Starters: Superstitions
Are you superstitious? What are some superstitions in your country? This week’s podcast is all about superstitions. This is a fun topic to talk about in multicultural classes! We’ve had many requests from subscribers for a lesson plan on this topic. Visit ESL-Library to print out the NEW Superstitions lesson plan that goes with today’s podcast. This lesson comes with vocabulary review, a reading, comprehension questions, and discussion questions. We also invite you to challenge your students to guess why 13 is an unlucky number. After they guess, they can do some research. Share your students’ guesses and findings with ESL-Library, and we’ll post them on our blog! Preview all of ESL-Library’s Discussion Starters lessons here. If you have any suggestions for topics, please get in touch.
Coming later this month: Adverbs of Time
Please introduce your students to our FREE podcasts. These can act as a preview to our Mini-Biography, Discussion Starter, Grammar Story, Holiday or Health lessons. They can also serve as extra listening homework to help your learners develop an understanding of the rhythm of English. Some teachers use our weekly podcast (posted every Wednesday) as a warm up for an online tutoring session.
Introduce your students to iTunes today! This is our 110th episode.
