Suggest some well-known superstitions, defining them through conditional sentences. If you walk under a ladder you will have bad luck. If a girl catches the bride’s bouquet after a wedding she will be the next to marry. Students are then invited to suggest further superstitions they know, which may be written on the board. (If you break a mirror you will have seven years’ bad luck. If you talk of the Devil he will appear. If you see a small spider you will get a lot of money. If a witch points at you, you will die. If you scratch your left hand you will give money away. If you touch wood your good luck will continue. If you hear an owl in the night a friend will die. If a black cat crosses your path you will have bad luck.)
