Structuring

Materials: Cartoon characters pictures, strips of which are written sentences.

After the first activity, teacher divides the class into four groups. Teacher gives them one of the characters. Each group prepares a short paragraph about their characters. Then, they choose a leader. Group leaders come in front of the class. They share their ideas. Afterwards, teacher asks them to hang on their pictures on the board. While they are hanging on the pictures, teacher hangs some papers on the wall. Each leader takes one of the sentences and asks his friends ‘Who is it’.  He chooses a friend to answer. If a student gives right answer, each leader hangs it near the picture of the character on the board. It continues until the papers are finished.

Aims:
