Key
1. Cinema words
Ask students questions using the vocabulary, e.g. "Do you usually buy popcorn when you watch a film?", "Can you
buy cheap tickets at your local cinema?", "Do you prefer the seats at the front or at the back?", etc.
2. Film genres
Elicit film genres, e.g. gangster, epic/historical, horror, musical, science fiction, war, western. In a small class, you
can go around the class eliciting one film for each genre. In a larger class, students can complete the exercise in
small groups or pairs.

Monitor the activity. Make a note of mistakes and write them on the board. For a more ambitious class, encourage
