A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Give learners page 1 and keep page 2 to hand for feedback and sample clues.
- Check why the soup smells like garlic but the lemons taste sour.
- Have learners build the four sentences and compare the verb endings for clouds and cake.
- In pairs, take turns describing a choice from the box using two different senses.
Support and extension
Let a hesitant speaker rehearse both clues before the guessing round. Extend the task by having learners choose an object outside the box.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
