Activity 4 Play "Mr Crocodile, can I cross the river?". 10 min Objectives: to reinforce the new words, to have fun
STEP 1: Say that the pupils will play a game which they played in class 2. Ask the pupils to revise the words they will need to "cross the river": rooms, objects in the rooms. Ask them to look at activity 2a on page 16.
STEP 2: Demonstrate with one pupil. Help him/her to say: Mr Crocodile, can I cross the river? You say: Yes. Name 5 rooms. The pupil must jump on 'stones' and name 5 rooms. Let two or three pupils do the same. Then change the task. Name 5 things in the bedroom. If any pupil fails s/he must go back and try again.

Note: you can divide the class into groups and ask the groups to "cross the river" one by one. If necessary the group members can help each other.
