소개
This 94-node mind map template, designed for an English as a Second Language (ESL) classroom, explores the concept of heroism through vocabulary, discussion prompts, and linguistic tools. Organized into six main branches—Pictures, your ideas, which words are (not) connected?, TOOLBOX, CAPACITY, and Documents—the template guides learners to define a hero by examining qualities like 'generous', 'bravery', and 'selfless', and to distinguish between 'fictive / fictitious / fictional heroes' and 'real (life) heroes'. It includes a dedicated TOOLBOX with sentence frames such as 'A hero is characterized by + N' and 'Being a hero is all about + Ving', plus a CAPACITY section covering expressions like 'be able to' and 'succeed in'. The 'which words are (not) connected?' branch prompts critical thinking about terms like 'honour', 'myth(s)', and 'celebrity'. This template serves as a complete lesson plan for discussing moral values, societal expectations, and language structures around heroism.
