The class will play a “sentence making game”. At the first stage, the teacher will select a word and make a sentence himself. Then one student will make a sentence using the last word of the sentence made by the teacher. Thus the whole class will make 31 sentences during the class time. The teacher will write down the sentences produced by the students. Moreover, if the students make any mistake in the produced sentence, the teacher will repeat the corrected form and write it down on the white board.
