Procedure (35-45 minutes)
Show pictures of some famous superhero and give them the chance to speak about there favorite superhero.
I will present the picture of the superhero which is in the unit and have the ss describe it. I will pre-teach new vocabulary and write them on the board. Ss will work in group to guess what is superhero doing and why is he wearing a mask. Then I will play the tape and ss scan listening to check if their guessing were right.
The ss work in pairs and listen intensively to the recording to find out which information was mentioned in the listening, after they finish they compare their answers in groups.. I will play the recording a sufficient number of time, my aim is to get the ss to agree together without my help, I will be using verbal prodding, raise my eyebrows, nods, hints, until they agree.
Ss work in group or in pairs to discuss why the man is hiding his identity, and what do they think he does when he is not dressed as a superhero. Teacher will be moving around the class monitoring to make sure all the ss are engaged to the discussion.
