20 free time activities shown with still photos, from painting to putting a puzzle together.
Activity suggestions:
Students write down # 1-20 (or 1-10) in their notebooks.
  1. Students watch without sound, and write down the activity for each number, while they watch
  2. Same, but students watch with sound (easier for high beginners)
