Tips on substitute teaching

Hi all, I am new to this Forum. I will be substitute teaching for 2 days next week in an adult ESL class (I believe they are high beginners) for the first time and I would love some advice! I don't know anything about the class except most of them are Arab and possibly women (not sure). They have finished all their testing and it's close to the end of the year. Please help

Thanks

If I were you... I'd dig out some roleplays, games, discussion activities and have a good time with it. My aim would be to get them talking talking talking to improve fluency and not worry about grammar. It sounds like they've done all the work and testing and they'll certainly enjoy an opportunity to have fun with their new language.
