As the lesson is sports themed we are going to do lots of fun sports activities. Make sure all of the desks and chairs are moved to the side of the classroom

Teacher: What sport do you think he is playing?

• Teacher: What sport do you think he is playing?
• Students: Tennis?
• Teacher: Let's see (turns over page) ... Yes, tennis! What is he hitting?
• Students: A tennis ball!
• Teacher: I play (or don't play tennis). How about you Marta?
• Student (Marta): I play tennis (or I don't play tennis).

Get the students really involved in the reader by asking lots of questions (e.g. eliciting colors, clothes, body features with adjectives (e.g. the alien playing golf has a big eye) and other objects) and getting them to guess each sport. Encourage everyone to say which sports they do and don't play.

• After reading the story, give out a reader worksheet to each student and read through the story one more time (without stopping for questions, etc.) as students match up the aliens to the sports. Then go through the answers as a class.
