Unit 1 Greetings

Activity 3 Play “Touch Your Nose”.

Objective: to consolidate the new vocabulary

STEP 1: Say that it is necessary to remember one little word “touch” in order to play the game. Then explain that you will now begin to give commands to yourself, and the pupils have to guess the commands you are giving.

STEP 2: Say slowly: ‘Touch your nose!’ and touch your nose. Then give the other commands with other parts of the head and do them. The pupils should guess that you are giving commands to touch a part of the head.

STEP 3: Now say that the pupils have to listen your command and do it themselves. Say it very slowly. The pupils perform the command. Then start saying commands a bit faster.

STEP 4: When the pupils begin to show the parts of the head confidently, explain that the purpose of the game is cheating them. You will say the command but do not perform it properly, i.e. you should not show what they hear. For example, say: ‘Touch your head’, but point to your ear. This game is for consolidation, and mostly for relieving stress, for proving that almost everybody makes mistakes. Therefore, you can say that this is a fun game and it does not matter if they make mistakes. The main thing is trying.
