Mr. Peabody & Sherman: Modal for Ability CAN

This is a lovely movie. Mr. Peabody’s kind heart is amazing and the plot is just fantastic. It is great to teach children a bit about history as well. I truly recommend it.
I. Work in small groups. Watch the movie segment. You can’t write anything. After the segment is over, make a list of everything Mr. Peabody can do.

II. GAME
Each group takes turns and say one sentence about what Mr. Peabody can do (Ex: GROUP 1 – He can speak English). Then the next group has to say a different sentence. The group that says more sentences is the winner.
Answer key:
Students may come up with more sentences than the ones in the answer key. Here are the activities I managed to see.
He can do yoga.
He can turn somersaults.
He can speak English.
He can read.
He can use the computer.
He can make sculptures.
He can play basketball.
He can write.
He can make creative inventions.
He can solve political problems around the world.
He can sing.
He can skate.
He can dance.
