Teacher
T: 'Hello, class! Let's play a guessing game. Look at the picture. Guess what it is.' T shows a foot flashcard slowly from behind a card.
Pupils
Ss look at the picture and listen carefully to the teacher.
Teacher
T asks: 'What is it?' T models the answer: 'It's a foot.' Then T shows a father flashcard and asks: 'Who is this? Say: That's my father.'
Pupils
Ss answer in chorus: 'It's a foot.' / 'That's my father.' Ss then guess the other flashcards in pairs (e.g., mother, hand).
