Brief Outline: Students interview one another about Japanese pop stars using irregular comparative sentences.

 

Materials Needed:

 

Teaching Suggestions:

  • Use this game for students who are interested in Japanese pop stars, otherwise it will just be another speaking/writing activity.

 

Detailed Explanation:

  1. Give students the worksheet and ask them to think of one adjective to write in box #5.
  2. Let’s Interview: With the JTE, do a demonstration for students. The ALT will ask the JTE, “Who is the most beautiful star?” and JTE will choose a Japanese pop star from the pictures. Note that during the interview, it is not necessary for students to write in complete sentences. Encourage students to practice speaking rather than dwelling over how to spell certain words.
  3. Let’s Write: Have students either use the answers they got from the interview or their own opinions and make 5 sentences.
