Walking around while the students are working and see if they understood or not

Reflection
In this lesson giving instructions for the activities went well. I gave the
students clear instruction then I asked one student to repeat the
instructions which lead to understand the activity well. If I have chance
to teach this lesson again, I will use the same way to give instructions
and Ill let the students who give wrong synonym another chance to
answer.
The children learn how to predict synonyms for words. I knew that
because I saw the paper that they wrote on it more than one synonym
for each word.
Next time I will try to use an online game of synonym to engage the
students and make the lesson more active.
