Activity 4 Look, listen and say.  
Objective: to introduce the new structure “I can ski.”
STEP 1: Ask the pupils who can skate or ski in real life. Re-
ceiving the answers, offer the pupils to learn how to talk about 
it using the structure “i can ...”. here you can use gestures to 
explain the structure. To do it, at first, show yourself (i) and 
then throw your fist up (as if you are proving “i can”). explain 
that it does not matter whether the pupils are able to ski or not. 
They can imagine that they can do. 
next show the pictures of the commands “ski!”, etc. and work 
on their pronunciation in chorus. 
i can ski.
i can skate.
i can play hockey.
i can play snowballs.
STEP 2: Then ask volunteers to go to the board and show off 
what they can do. explain that it is possible to use both the old 
and new commands but it is necessary for them to show an ac-
tion. For example, the volunteer says “i can run” and runs in 
his/her resting place. or he/she says “i can fly” and flaps his/
her arms like wings.
