Why do you like horses?

Everybody must answer this question, because I am sure you like horses. Myself:

I like horses because they are beautiful, elegant and fast.

Last Monday we started a new unit. We looked at a picture of a bedroom and reviewed the prepositions of place. Students had to say where everything was. Under the bed, next to the bed, on the wall, etc.

Important words students have to study are:

wall, floor, ceiling, window, door, shelf, bed, bedside table.

But we spend most of the lesson preparing our TV contest or Guess Game. Of course, our topic is animals, because now students can say a lot of things about animals.

We have 2 teams: 

Team A: Sergio, David and Marta.

Team B: Pablo, Daniel and Isma.

Host: Nene.

We are going to play 2 games. The first one is the clue game. Students wrote clues for the game. What is a clue? Check this game and you'll know. http://www.uptoten.com/kids/kidsgames-mixedbag-guesswhichanimal.html

The second game is a bit more difficult because students have to ask questions and score for each question they get right. the host answers the questions and the other team has to guess the animal as quick as they can so the other contestant do not ask many questions.

These are the type of questions students must ask:

Questions about animals

Group of animals:

 Is it a wild animal? Is it a farm animal? Is it a pet?
