· Camila will try to move around the classroom and interact more with the
students at the back.
Materials:
· Photocopies.
· Animal images.
· Beamer
Anticipated problems:
· Students may find it difficult to produce on their own small texts because
they may not remember vocabulary or language structures.
Possible Solutions:
· We guide their productions by correcting their mistakes, and also give them
an outline of what they should produce. Besides, they will have at hand
photocopies we have worked with that contain parts of the body, habitats
and the use of can/can’t, have got/ haven’t got.

PROCEDURES
1) Warm-up activities:
a) We will correct the last activity worked during the previous class:
We will show all of the animals in a powerpoint presentation so that everyone
can see them (this is because in the previous class each pair had a different
animal and they did not see the others). We will correct the questions and
add some little details that might be of interest as the animals are rare and
children do not know them.
2) Main Activity:
a) In pairs, students have to choose an animal from Argentina and write
a short description about it using all the content we have worked in the
unit. For this, we will provide them with these guidelines:
