"Is it like a holiday?" (Yes) - " I have a question for you: What activity do you like to do on vacation?" - T demos what Ss should do and shows her sticky note (with her name) and puts it on pic.3. She explains that this is her favorite activity to do on vacation. - T asks Ss to create their sticky note a write their names on it. - T shares the Jamboard link and students create their sticky notes. - Then, she asks them to put their sticky note on one of the pictures 1-5. "Which one is YOUR favorite activity to do on vacation? 1,2,3,4,5?" - Ss create their sticky notes and T asks quick follow up questions to individual Ss ("What is your favorite book? Do you have a bicycle? Which city do you want to visit?") *In case the group is large, T puts Ss into pairs in BOR and asks them to talk about which picture (1-5) they like the most and which activity they like to do on vacation. In OCFB she -nominates some Ss to share their answers

Each word in the colocations is color-coded to show Ss a pattern - All 4 collocations are color-coded and T asks Ss what do they notice about the colors. "Is this red word also a noun?"
