Teaching practice 4
Elementary A1 level

Description

This lesson continues with the same context as the previous lessons, but moves to practice of the vocabulary and grammar presented in these lesson. It also allows for speaking practice and personalisation of the target language. The teacher doesn't specifically need to cover MFP, but needs to check Ss are clear about how to make questions, etc. It would also be a good idea to drill some of these before Ss move into the main speaking activity.
