Based on the previous exposure the teacher chooses three sentences from the students' answers (two are wrong and one is correct) or he may provide them himself then gets students in pairs to discuss which sentence is correct. after choosing the right sentence the teacher tries to elicit each adjective's family (big/small/.....refers to size) he tries to elicit as many adjectives as he can and writes them in category. adds some other nous then gets students in pairs/or groups to write as many sentences as they can using the different adjectives
