Description
The lesson invites learners to approach the topic step by step. They describe a stadium image, build football-related vocabulary, and compare jerseys in terms of colors and design. A reading text about the 2026 World Cup provides key facts and encourages deeper engagement. Students also work with country flags and match them with descriptions. A special focus is placed on “migration backgrounds in football”: using a player biography, learners explore how international identities shape the sport. A creative task completes the unit: students design their own team, create jerseys, or decide which country they would represent. This makes the topic not only linguistically accessible, but also personal, creative, and relevant.
