Show Slide 4. T says, "Here are some words we often use when we talk about superstitions. Superstition is a noun." (T reads example sentence.) T says, "Superstitious is an adjective." (T reads example sentence.) T says, "Good luck, or lucky. These mean the same thing." (T reads example sentence, and shows how "good luck" and "lucky" can be substituted for each other and have the same meaning. T says, "Bad luck, or unlucky. These mean the same thing." (T reads example sentence, and shows how "bad luck" and "unlucky" can be substituted for each other and have the same meaning. T circles "good luck charm" and asks Ss, "what does 'good luck charm' mean?" T explains and provides examples of a good luck charm if Ss don't know. (e.g. A good luck charm is an item that you keep close to you, or put up in your home to protect from evil, and to bring good luck. For example, a rabbit's foot, or evil eye.") T circles "bad omen, good omen," and asks Ss, "What does 'omen' mean?" If Ss don't know, T explains: "An omen is a sign that something is about to happen. A good omen means that something good is going to happen- for example, if you see a shooting star, that means there will be good luck. Or, if you see a black cat outside, some people say that you will soon have bad luck.") T asks Ss if they know the meaning of jinx and curse. If Ss don't know, T explains that jinx or curse means for bad luck, or a bad spell to be cast on you. For example, "The evil witch put a curse on the princess." T asks Ss if they know the meaning of fortune. If Ss don't know, T explains that fortune is a synonym for luck. If you have good fortune, it means the same thing as having good luck. If you are fortunate, that's the same thing as being lucky. T asks Ss, "Can you think of any other words we can use to talk about superstition?"
