Common misconception

Pupils might find it difficult to work out which word fills each gap in Task C, question 9 as more than one option can work in some of the sentences.

Encourage pupils to leave one out if there is more than one option that could work and return to it when there are less options to choose from.

Start the lesson by asking the pupils to think of all the most delicious things they have ever tasted.
