Hi, I am a fairly new teacher and I have to give a demo class on Friday to a group of 35 seven year olds. This is the biggest group I have taught and also the youngest I have taught.
I have to teach them to use can and can't in a 30 minute lesson.
My initial idea is to use flashcards for various activities in case they don't know the activities and conduct a class survey, who can do this and who can't. I have also designed a worksheet for them to work in pairs asking each other questions also about what they can and can't do.
I just wondered if anyone has any more or any better ideas, I really want this to go well.
Many, many thanks in advance.
demo class

Your idea of using the flashcards is good for presenting the new vocabulary. Keep the cards later for other games like flyswatting and I-spy. But above all do not forget miming guessing games. Let the students do the miming.
