TEACHER MATERIALS · ELEMENTARY (A1-A2)
COUNTRIES AND NATIONALITIES
Key
1. Countries and nationalities
Read out the nations and nationalities. Have the students repeat, underlining the stressed syllable. It might be a
good idea to bring a map into the classroom.
2. Where are you from?
Draw the students’ attention to the dialogue, then demonstrate with one of the students, using the student’s
real nationality and home town/city or nation. Have the students continue the activity around the class. Practice
asking questions with ‘he’ and ‘she’, e.g. ‘Maria, where is Tomek from?’ ’He’s Polish. He’s from Warsaw.’
If you are teaching one-to-one, ask ‘he/she’ questions with the names of famous people, e.g. ‘Where is Barack
Obama from?’ Alternatively, bring some photos of celebrities to the lesson and ask ‘Where is he/she from?’
3. Is it British?
In this exercise, students review positive, negative, and short answer forms of the verb ‘be’. Weak students can
use the table in Ex4 to help them. Monitor the activity.
4. Verb ‘be’
Go through the present forms of the verb ‘be’ with a weak class. Stronger students should cover up the table
during Ex3.
