A. Review
Letting the students do the activity “Pass the ball” to check what they have learned during the
past discussion. In this activity, the teacher will pass a ball to a person and that person has to say
one concept he/she remember from the discussion. If that student can state a concept, he or she
will pass the ball to another student who has to now define the concept. Then that student passes
it to another student who gives a new concept, and so on.
