Students can discuss in their groups and share their ideas . After one or two minutes ask them to share their thoughts with the class because the lesson is planned to be communicative .
The teacher gives students six pictures and six adjectives about feelings and asks them to match them in groups based on their assumptions. Since each learner is from a different culture so they might have different assumptions regarding each picture therefore there is no correct answer. Make sure that students clearly know what to do . Monitor students by observing them in order they need any helps.
