Default Re: yes/no questions(verb to be)short answers

I just replied to someone about this on another forum
the verb 'to be'

there are a couple game and activity ideas there.

What are you planning to use as your vocabulary? feelings?

first:
- Introduce your vocabulary
- Do an activity to solidify the vocabulary

second:
- Verify students understanding of 'he', 'she', 'I', and 'you'
- Introduce the target language - "He is hungry." - "Are you hungry?"
- Verify the students understand of the target structure via flashcards and questioning
- a small speaking exchange to check accuracy

third:
- practice the target language in a larger activity to practice fluency

How big is your group? What's your time frame?
