Put flashcards around the room. Say a body part. Learners run to the correct flashcard. Repeat for every body part. Now nominate a learner to say a body part. Other learners run to the correct flashcard. They nominate the next learner, and so on. Learners stand up. Simon says: pat your head, touch your toes, move your fingers, wave your hands, stamp your feet, bend your knees, touch your nose. (Remember to miss out 'Simon says' a few times.) Give learners the worksheet. They work alone to label the picture with body parts, and then check with a partner. Check the answers with the whole class. |

Learners work in pairs. Each pair draws a monster. They should use all body parts – be creative. Collect in the pictures. Put learners in pairs – one behind the other. Give learner 1 (behind) a monster from another pair. Ask learner 1 to describe the monster to their partner. Learner 2 (in front) draws the monster. Make a gallery at the end – who drew the best copy? |
