3^rd stage: Practise new vocabulary, recycle familiar vocabulary & structures. These activities are designed to allow pupils to practice the new language in context. The pupils should be encouraged to use the new language as much as possible. a) Chant: Family members: I use it to present the new language in context. Pupils find it easy to remember and are often willing to practise it over and over again and do the actions at the same time. It is also good for working on pronunciation without realising it pupils naturally improve suprasegmental features by clapping and using the appropriate stress, rhythm and intonation b) Tongue Twister: https://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/es/tongue-twisters/quick-kiss

7^th stage: Free production of new language in creative activity. Pupils practice the four skills with this activity. Do a survey: I give them a survey with different questions about the family members. The pupils have to ask this to different partners in the class. Classroom display: when all the pupils have finish they discuss the information and they do a classroom display showing how are the families of the class, for example: 5 pupils have got sisters or brothers. Draw and describe your teacher.

8^th stage: Check your progress, self-evaluation. Check yourself worksheet: pupils complete a mixture of short evaluation activities, similar to those done in class. I give them a worksheet in which they have to read and complete a text about different family members and their descriptions. Portfolio: The pupils draw and write about the teacher using the vocabulary they have learnt and the recycled vocabulary. After, this sheet is added to their portfolio of personalized work. Self-evaluation: pupils complete a chart which shows different aspects such as the four skills, pair works or sharing. They draw a green start if they have done excellent, they colour it yellow if they have done good and they colour it red if they think they have done ok but they could do it better.

PROJECT: Look at my world! Pupils change information with pupils from an English school about the topic of the unit and compare the differences and similarities of different families in other cultures.
