Plan of the lesson
Warm up activity
Teacher starts the lesson with questions "Where are you from?", "What nationality are you?".
Than the teacher corrects the answers and explains whats the difference between the name of the country and nationality.
(This activity is suitable if all students are from one country, so to show the example and to correct them much more easier. E. g. to show the difference between "Russia" - a country, where the students live, and "Russian" - their nationality. )
Now students are able to describe themselves and they are ready to learn new vocabulary to describe others.
