WARM-UP

An all-star football team

- T draws this table on the board:

Name Position

Captain

Goalkeeper

Defender

Midfielder

Forwards

- Then T asks Ss to guess the meaning of the words in column 2. Teach

them how to guess, for example, "goalkeeper" is formed with two words

"goal" and "keeper". It refers to the footballer who keeps the goal, etc. T

checks Ss' understanding by getting them to translate these words into

Vietnamese. T may also want to tell Ss that another word for "captain" is

"skipper", another word for "goalkeeper" is "goalie" and other words. for

"forward" are "striker" and "attacker". T might also want to provide Ss

with some I. other expressions such as "central midfielder", "right

midfielder", "left midfielder", "sweeper/ libero", "winger", etc.

- Now T divides the class in small groups of 3 or 4 and introduces the

games: Supposed that Ss need to build an all-star team to play in a

friendship match with a national team of a certain country, say Vietnam.

Now they need to work together to propose a list of the world's football

stars that can fit in the positions described in the table above. When a

group finish, they can clap their hands to let T know. The winner will be

the group to finish first.

Note: T might want to provide Ss with the map so that they can visualize

the positions more easily.

- T goes around to check that Ss speak English while working together. T

calls on the winning group to present their proposal and asks the whole
