Unit 1 Greetings

Optional Activity 5 Play “What Can You Do?”

Objective: to introduce the question “What can you do?”

STEP 1: Introduce the question “What can you do?” and explain what it means. Further, say that it must be asked together in chorus before the performance of each team. So you should practise the question in chorus and individually.

STEP 2: When all the groups have chosen the flashcards for their teams, ask the team “Winter” to get prepared. And then have the whole class repeat the question “What can you do?” after you. The team must say sentences like “It’s winter. I can ski. I can play snowballs.”

Next, have the whole class repeat the question “What can you do?” in chorus for the team “Spring”. The team must say sentences like “It’s spring. I can fly a kite. I can jump.”

Do the same with the team “Summer”. When the class ask the question “What can you do?”, the team must answer like “It’s summer. I can swim. I can run.”

The team “Autumn” answer the same question as “It’s autumn. I can play football. I can jump a rope.”

STEP 3: As the pupils spoke only about their seasons, it is recommended to ask all the questions about the seasons individually. For example, “It’s winter. What can you do?”

Homework:

Explain to the pupils that at home they should draw and colour the pictures on the right hand page. Ask them to remember the sentences like “It’s winter. I can ski”, etc.
