girl. Looking at these pictures, discuss what you think some of the amazing things she can do might be.

Слайд 6Write Your Own Bragging Speech
Make a list of some things that

you are good at, or wish you were good at.

Tell us about it, just like Sally Ann would:

BAD: “I am good at talking, running and swimming”.
GOOD: “I can out-talk, out-grin, out-scream, out-swim, and out-run any baby in Kentucky!”

BAD: “I can run fast.”
GOOD: “I can run like a cheetah!”

BAD: “I have a nice smile.”
GOOD: “My smile is as bright as a flash of lightning.”

BAD: “I play football well.”
GOOD: “I am the best football player in SPb. I score the most goals of any player, ever.”




Слайд 7Reminders:


Use similes: (“run like a cheetah”)
superlative adjectives (fastest, strongest, smartest, bravest)
comparison words

such as most and best,
prefix out- as in the word outrun or other prefixes that show how amazing and talented you are.
EXCLAMATION POINTS EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The idea is to convince others that you are a person of many talents. You should use good examples that prove a point.


It should be lighthearted and funny!
