Lesson Plan.
1. Greetings.
Hello, everyone! Today we are going to do some research work on how to be a star or an ideal friend. Isn't it excited? Of course it is. And what do you think I mean speaking about stars? Who are they? (Possible answers: famous people - pop stars, actors, artists, scientists, politicians etc.; people we are proud of, people who contribute to the fame and prosperity of the country, etc.) On the whole: stars are people who distinguish themselves as individuals. And can you be a star? What should be done for it?

First of all, at the lesson you should act like a star and it means the following:
S - start
T - to be
A - active to achieve a
R - result
Everyone on the Earth has his/her own identity which starts, of course, with the Name. The next task is to name yourself and sign your worksheets. Here's how to pick your Friendship Name. Try to think something in Friendship that starts with the same letter or sound of your first name, like Sasha Serious , Anton Understanding, etc. Or think of something that rhymes with your first name like Yura Humour or Kolya Loyal. Lastly, you can just pick a unique name like Alyona Kind, Sveta Playful and so on. Most of all make sure that you like your Friendship Name and it seems to fit you.
