Learning objectives

Instructions to set up the activity

First the students are asked to create a "move" for their own superpowers. For example: ”invisible” could be represented by a gesture of crossing their hands in front of their chest.

After that the students will together do a series of actions with the teacher: A clap on the laps - a clap with the hands - a student shouting out his own name and do his own move - a clap on the laps - a clap with the hands - the student shouting a name of another student while doing the move of their counterparts’ superpowers. This should be repeated. 

If the game is working the teacher can  slowly speed up the game to make it more challenging.

Since the students are now familiar with all the moves and superpowers, the teacher can then create different scenes and ask the students to utilize their superpower in these scenes. For example, the forest is on fire, how can the students use their superpowers to put out the fire, save the animals and plant the trees again?

If the children are advanced, one could allow them to create their own scenes. If the children are confused about the language, the teacher can let other students help with the explanation.
