🦸 Explorers: Six More Heroes

A fully interactive A2 Kids lesson that extends the Irregular Heroes unit with six more irregular past verbs — make→made, take→took, give→gave, run→ran, say→said, write→wrote — and mixes them with the first six from the previous lesson for a full team of twelve. Students warm up by recalling old heroes and priming the new ones, then meet the language in two grammar blocks — 'New Rule-Breakers' (these verbs change shape, no -ed, with formula chips, three examples including the 'said' pronunciation tip and a past signal-words panel) and 'Your Twelve Heroes' (a base→past reference table for the new six). Ten key items (the six new verbs plus card, photo, goal, present) appear in a scrollable vocabulary table, and the six new heroes get review flashcards. The reading is a magazine-style Hero Report about Mia's birthday that weaves the new verbs together with old heroes (ate, had, got, came, went) in natural past context with hover-tooltip vocabulary. Practice offers eight contextualised fill-in-the-blank items mixing new and old irregular past forms with live green/red validation, hints and a running score; speaking gives five prompts and a five-line Team Compass dialogue for building a twelve-hero story about last weekend; the writing task is a guided 25–45 word 'My New Heroes' paragraph requiring at least two new heroes with a four-point checklist and a live word counter with auto-save; and an eight-question quiz mixes irregular past forms with two comprehension questions about the reading, featuring a progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle and localStorage persistence.
