- T walks around classroom and uses examples of "this" and "that'. - T walk next to a students and says this is "abdulah", this is my cell phone - T points to an object and persons farther away in the class room. That is Ayham, That is a computer. - T then asks Ss "what this questions" "whose this questions". Points to students and object close to the student to elicit "this". T makes sure students are using this in complete sentences. - T then asks Ss "what is that questions"/ "who is that question". Points to an object far away in the class room and has Ss use "that" in a complete sentence. T points to student far away in the class room and has Ss use "that" in a complete sentence.
- T presents on the WB 'this" and "that" - T draws 2 pictures of him self. and an object in this case a laptop - First laptop is close to him (this represents this) - Second laptop is far away from me (That) - T asks Ss if they use either "this" or "that" in the first picture - T asks Ss if they use either "this" or "that" in the 2nd picture.
