Session plan: Tutor brings a photograph or book to the session that shows the “thrill of victory” or “agony of defeat” type emotion.

After discussing the subject of the photograph – what emotions is the person feeling, what questions would they like to ask them etc., make an aluminum foil microphone or something similar and have the student interview you as the subject of the photo or you can reverse roles.

Discuss the sports equipment noted in the photo. There are four books listed that can be used as adjuncts to the session, perhaps using one to read together.
