Use finger to trace a path from the house to the school.Ask students, How do you get to school? Do you walk? Do you ride a bicycle?

(For example, if you ask , How do you get to school? and a student replies, Bike, say , Oh , you ride your bike. Class, repeat. I ride my bike. The class repeats.)

Say, Today we’re talking abot how you go from one place to another.
