Fill the gaps

•       The aim of this activity is  check the vocabulary seen in the previous lessons and improve their listening skills in a different way, playing a song.

•       At the beggining of the class, we will explain how is going to work the activity and what is the main aim of it.

•       We have to remember that we are going to check all together the vocabulary words worked in the unit and all the steps that they have to follow to complete the “Fill the gaps” properly.

•       After this, we will say the title of the song and we will play just once that song to familiarise it.

•       Once they finished, we will play the song twice. They have to learn that the first time that they listen something, they have to pay extremely attention and just focus on the lyrics and the rest of times, the have to fill the gaps or complete the activity that the teacher says.

•       When the song stop the last time, they are going to check it the content in two different ways, first individually and then with the classmate next to him or her.

•       Just in case they have some doubts, we will write on the board the correct anwers and as teachers we have to try that everyone has to participate in the 45 minutes class.

•       If we have some spare time and our/their aim is done and this behaviour has been the proper one, we can song the song all together.
