8. Conclusion These activities have been planned thinking of a 5th grade class with approximately 15/20 students. In this grade, students are supposed to be learning verb to be, so, this could be an opportunity to practice sentences with this verb, and at the same time, to know other verbs, adjectives and nouns.
9. With respect to time, at the beginning of the class, we will need about 10 minutes for an introduction and explanation of the activities. then, there will be necessary more time for children to choose their toy(5 min), to write the description(10 min.) and finally, some more minutes to share their information(15 min). In total, we have 40 minutes.
10. We consider this activity a fun way to encourage speaking in small children. Toys are things they enjoy and they have a lot of ideas about them. It will be easy to make them think of their favourite ones and share it with their classmates. Gisela BermudezJacqueline Bozo
