transport is very good for this age.

A good point to focus on would be 'how do they get to various places.'

car - drive
bike - ride
rocket - fly
train - take

You could
1. introduce the vocabulary
2. elicit transport they use, parents use, they can find in their city
3. Make some fictional characters and have them go different places using the appropriate verbs for the transport
4. Have the students make sentences for how they go several places around town.
  • I walk to school.
    I ride my bike to Jon's house.
    I take the bus to the mall.
    My mother drives me to the movies. (a little difficult)
    I fly to Europe on vacation.

5. work in a game or activity
6. a follow up worksheet having the students use or select the correct verbs for the transportation involved

If you have another lesson to plan you'll just need to add more to the sentences.
I ride my bike to church on Tuesdays
I walk to school with my friend.

Or practice more in the third person and getting the third person singular correct.
