• Turn and Face<br />
Basic Listening<br />
Mount the vocabulary illustrations on the walls and chalkboard.<br />
Group the stu dents together in the center of the classroom. Say<br />
one of the vo cabulary words and the students should turn to face<br />
the illustration for the word you said. Depending upon the size of<br />
your class, this ac tivity may be done in small groups. This activity<br />
may also be done in team form. In this case, have a player from<br />
each team stand in the center of the classroom. When a player<br />
faces the wrong di rection (i.e., the wrong il lustration), he/she is<br />
"out" until a later round of the ac tivity. Repeat until all players have<br />
had an opportunity to participate.<br />

versions of the vocabulary illustrations. Provide each student with<br />
a copy of the stencil. The students should cut the illustrations from<br />
their copies of the stencil. When the students' illustrations are cut<br />
out, say a vocabulary word. Each student should then hold up the<br />
il lustration for the vocabulary word that you said. Repeat this<br />
process until all of the illustrations/vocabulary words have been<br />
used in this way.<br />
• Matching Halves<br />
Cut each of the vocabulary illustrations in half. Mix all of the halves<br />
together and distribute them to the students. Say a vocabu lary<br />
word. The two stu dents who have the halves for the illustration that<br />
