🏃 Action Words!
In this active lesson, young learners will discover English verbs — the words that describe what we do. Students will learn 16 action words split into body actions and everyday actions, use 'I can' and 'I can't' to talk about abilities, follow classroom instructions like 'Stand up!' and 'Sit down!', and ask 'Can you swim?'. The lesson includes a Simon Says game, interactive quiz, vocabulary exercises, and a creative action poster task.
