🦒 Describing Animals: Adjectives like Big, Small, Fast and Slow

A fully interactive A1 Teens vocabulary-and-speaking lesson built around describing animals. Students begin with four reflection warm-up questions, then study the language in four clear blocks: an adjective-opposites grid with paired emojis (big/small, fast/slow, tall/short, heavy/light, strong/weak, friendly/dangerous), a picture grid of twelve common animals (elephant, lion, giraffe, cheetah, turtle, mouse, dog, cat, rabbit, bear, penguin, snake), a word-order block teaching that the adjective comes before the noun or after is/are (with the is vs are singular/plural contrast), and a 'can' block for abilities (a bird can fly, a penguin can't fly). Ten everyday words (big, small, fast, slow, tall, strong, friendly, animal, can, favourite) appear in a horizontally scrollable table with simple A1 definitions and example sentences, and six receive detailed review flashcards. The reading is a magazine-style feature with four first-person mini-stories from teens in the Czech Republic (cheetah), the UAE (camel), China (giant panda), and Argentina (penguin), with key vocabulary highlighted on hover and adjectives used in natural context. Practice includes 8 contextualised fill-in-the-blank questions (adjectives, is/are, can) with live green/red validation, hints, and a running score; a speaking section with five interview prompts and a model dialogue; a guided 30–50 word writing task with a four-point checklist and live word counter; and a full 8-question multiple-choice quiz featuring a progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle with tiered motivational feedback, and localStorage persistence.
