15. Tom and Jerry Elicit the characters Tom and Jerry using pictures and paste them a small distance apart on the walls. Explain to the class that if they are well behaved and speak English Jerry will move away from Tom. But if they speak too much BM or misbehave Tom will move closer to Jerry. If Tom catches Jerry at any point in the lesson then the students will be given extra homework or given a task which they don’t like. If Jerry escapes by the end of the lesson then the students win a reward e.g. they can play their favourite game, sing a song etc. This should also be played in your TPD sessions with teachers to help monitor BM, mobile phones, late arrivals etc.
