    • Teach vocabulary and grammar in context.
    • Use themes relevant to students’ lives (family, school, festivals, seasons, animals, etc.).
  4. Four-Skill Integration

    • Quiz competitions, drama activities, and language treasure hunts.
  6. Formative Assessment
    • Oral checks, written work, and interactive activities to assess progress.
