Activity 1 Listen and sing.

Objective: to sing the song

Look at Unit 1, Lesson 1, Activity 2 for the instructions.

Activity 2 Play “His Name Is”.

Objectives: to introduce the possessive pronouns “her/his”

to practise the pronunciation of the sound []

STEP 1: Explain to the pupils that they will remember two small words and then they can play a game. Therefore, they should listen and understand the meaning of these two words.

At first have the pupils repeat the word “his” after you and then the word “her” paying a particular attention to the sound []. Have the pupils repeat the sound [] in chorus and individually.

STEP 2: Further you need to show a puppet or flashcard Zumrad and say ‘Her name is Zumrad’. Then show Jasur and say ‘His name is Jasur’. Further show a girl and a boy from the class and say ‘Her name is ...’ or ‘His name is...’ accordingly.

Then you should clarify what these two words mean in the pupils’ mother tongue. For consolidation suggest the pupils say the word ‘his’ when you will name a boy from the class or the word ‘her’ when you name a girl. At first slowly and then quickly name the pupils from the class, the pupils should say ‘his’ or ‘her’. It is especially important for the Uzbek children because in Uzbek grammar there is no gender category in the 3rd person singular.

STEP 3: Further suggest the pupils tell ‘His name is ...’ or ‘Her name is ...’ about the pupils when you point to a pupil silently. S/he stands up and all the pupils repeat his/her name in chorus after you: ‘His name is Ruslan’. ‘Her name is Guzal’.
