   • Write the words on the whiteboard and discuss their meanings.
3. Vocabulary Practice (10 minutes):
   • Divide the class into pairs or small groups.
   • Give each group a set of flashcards.
   • In turns, students should pick a card and say the word out loud. Their partner/group members should respond appropriately.
