This lesson is simple and a wonderful way to celebrate X-mas.Get more resources/ideas on EFL Classroom’s Xmas resource page.

 

1. Watch The Great Toy Robbery. Put students in pairs and have one watch the screen, the other look away. Partner A describes what he is watching to Partner B who can’t see. Switch part way through.

 

2. Watch again and pause, noting vocabulary (or make a worksheet). Discuss and point it out in context.

 

3. Students retell the story or retell as a writing exercise. Lots of other creative extension ideas possible too!
