Elicit the difference between Home and House Gap filling exercise to practice and the feedback is on the whitboard T shows Ss visuals for the words, elicits, models, concept checks, drills and then writes them on the board with stress mark, part of speech and pronunciation difficulties. In case, Ss need more focus on vocab and the teacher sees they need more help to get them, a matching exercise will help at this moment.
