• What’s the name of Maria’s role model? (present simple)
• What does she say when they have a bad game? (present simple)
• What is she doing at the moment? (present continuous)
• Elicit the answers from the ‘A’ cards.

• Tell learners to write about their role models. Make sure they are including all the information
necessary to answer the questions on the ‘Q’ card.
