Friday 6th - The Definition of Beauty

Class: 07- Working on the idea of beauty.
1) Game of the day: Last Man Standing
This is a game which gives students the time to think and encourage peer learning. As they hear other students speaking, they will pick up on some words.  Have all the students form a circle and stand at the center with a ball. All you have to do is name a category (food, places, hobbies, etc.) and pass the ball to one student. Let them toss it to another student as they name a word related to the theme. If they repeat a word or can’t say any more words, they need to sit down. The last man/student standing wins the game.
