Work through the sentences checking meaning and giving sample sentences. Ask the students to complete the sentences in their notebooks, reminding them to be as creative as possible.
When the students have finished, ask them to come to the front individually and read out their sentences. Their classmates have to listen carefully to the information and you have to note down the information of each dog.
When all the students have read out their sentences, explain to the students that you are going to read 10 sentences about the dogs and that in their notebooks, they should write the name of the person who imagined that dog.
You read…
1. This dog is brown.
2. This dog doesn’t like cats.
The students write…
1. Lucia
2.Miguel
Remind the students that it’s a competiton and that they shouldn’t shout out the answer, especially when you read out a sentence about their dog! Check the answers as a class and award points for each correct answer.
