The steps of applying Clumsy Pictures (CPs):
• First make the students guess the word while drawing the CPs on the board so they can get used to CPs and be familiar with them.
• After guessing the whole page the learners can write the CPs text from the board and by this way they can internalize the text easily.
• Begin to present the text by the help of CPs one by one with acting and using gestures.
• The learners can draw after finishing the subject using drama and CPs.
• The responsible student of the day write the transcription of the new word and while guessing you can write the new word with shaky letters to arouse curiosity.
• Make students repeat the page and do not forget to make the students ´work in pairs´ at the end of each lesson.
• Want the learners to redraw the CPs at home to prevent to copy the pages.
