Activity 2 Play “On a Farm”.
Objectives: to recycle the animals and their sounds
First, repeat the names of the animals and their sounds. Then explain that they will play a game on the farm.
Divide the class into two teams. Explain that each team is on the farm. There are many animals on the farm and, therefore, it is very noisy. Each pupil from the first team gets a flashcard with an animal. They should not show them to the members of the second team. Before you start the game, check whether all the pupils remember their sounds. If not, whisper to prompt. Then you can start the game. Explain that all the “animals” on the farm will produce sounds at your signal. The task of the second team is to sort out this noise and find out which animals are on the farm.
Then the whole class check the answer.
The game is then repeated with another team.

1. 
   team: a cow, a dog, a sheep, a duck
   
2. 
   team: a horse, a cat, a goat, a rooster
