INSTRUCTIONS Review the use of comparatives with adjectives using slides 1 to 5. Hand-in slips with adjectives to students. They have to work in pairs. Slides 6 to 14 will move automatically after 45 seconds (that’s the time the pairs have to form a comparative sentence using one of the adjectives provided in the slips.) And because of that you don’t have to stand next to the computer to change the slides; you can walk around the class and monitor your students’ production. Review the use of comparatives with nouns and verbs using slides 16 to 18. Then give your students the dice with sentences to be complete with this type of adjectives. By Lilian Marchesoni
