Practice

15 minutes
Watch for:
- Review = diagnostico, nao prova. O objetivo e IDENTIFICAR gaps, nao dar nota.
- MC <6/8 → dedicar tempo extra a pratica antes de seguir para L14.
- Possessive 's vs 'is': 'He's = He IS' vs 'Maria's = de Maria'. Se aluno confundir, reforcar com contexto.
- Speaking (Ex4): se o aluno mostrar foto no celular, excelente — pratica com contexto real.
- Irregular plurals (bonus oral apos Ex2): women, children, men, people — so esses 4 nesta fase.
- Rafael + Priya: perfis com vocab de familia + adjetivos + possessivos. Explorar "his/her" (his son, her husband).
