The purpose of this activity was that the find their other classmate that had the correct picture or word, but hey did not do that, and teachers helped them to find their partner.After, T Nicole repeated the word of the vocabulary while she was showing them a flashcards with the picture of each member. T gave them a flashcard without the name of the family member, and when she mentioned the family member they had to hold it up. Then, T Nicol started to sing a chant adapted that said, Who has grandfather?
