Five-Minute Activities for Young Learners

Procedure
1 Tell the children that the school principal is going to read out an
important announcement about an excursion and they will have to note
some specific details.
2 Ask the children, in pairs, to copy the note-taking grid from the board.
3 Slowly and carefully, read out the announcement. Make your voice
sound authoritative, so that the children get the sense that the school
principal is delivering the message.
4 Ask the pairs to check their answers and make changes if they think they
need to.
5 Call on the children to give their answers, and complete the note-taking
grid on the board.
