Study (10 mins):

 Introduce the target language for describing personality traits. Write some
sample sentences on the board such as "He's very outgoing" or "She's quite shy".
 Elicit the form of the target language from the students, i.e. the use of the "be"
verb and adjectives to describe personality traits.
 Provide the students with controlled practice by giving them sentence
completion exercises to complete with the correct form of the target language.
For example, "She is very _____" (outgoing, shy, etc.).
 Monitor the students as they complete the exercises and provide feedback as
necessary.

Controlled Practice (4 mins):

 Have the students work in pairs to ask and answer questions about personality
traits using the target language. For example, "Is your favorite celebrity outgoing
or shy?"
 Provide feedback on the students' use of the target language.

Semi-controlled Practice (8 mins):

 Provide the students with a set of role-play cards with descriptions of different
celebrities and their personality traits.

using the target language to describe their personality traits to their partner.
 Monitor the students as they complete the activity and provide feedback as
necessary.

Freer Practice (2 mins):

 Instruct the students to imagine they are at a party with their favorite celebrities
