Numbers and words

TEACHERS NOTES:
Aim: to practise and consolidate key vocabulary; my life and
numbers. This warmer is designed to be used in conjunction
with unit 2.
Time: 40 minutes
Materials: copy of the worksheet for each student

Ask students to fill in the gaps using the words from the box. Elicit
answers from the class.
Answers: a) sister b) accountant c) surname d) spell e) father f) best
g) number h) great i)engineer j) doctor k) email address

Students play a counting game. They work in pairs and take it in turns to
choose a number in the grid and say it, then cross it out until all the
numbers are crossed out. You could make this into a competition and
make the first pair to finish the winner. Monitor as students talk to check
on pronunciation. At the end of the activity ask students to call out some
of the numbers, giving you an opportunity to correct any pronunciation.
