Freer Practice10 min

Students use animals vocabulary more freely in a pair or small-group speaking or writing task — e.g. a short dialogue, role-play, or personalised exchange of information — with the teacher monitoring and noting errors for later feedback, not interrupting.

Wrap-up & Feedback5 min

Review the lesson objective, elicit 2-3 example sentences from students to check retention, give brief feedback on common errors noticed during freer practice, and set a related task (e.g. a LexFizz exercise) for further practice.
