Personal Possessions
Elementary level

Description

In this lesson, students learn about how to use "have / has got " yes/ no questions and short answers. The lesson starts with a listening exercise aiming to review the positive and negative forms of "have/has to" which they have been previously taught and it aims to expose them to "have/ has got" yes/no questions for the first time as well. Students then complete an open class practice activity of the TL by asking questions about a series of pictures of personal possession items. Finally, students complete a controlled practice and another freer practice for the purpose of providing a practice of the target language.
