Unit 1 Greetings

Activity 4 Look and say.

Objectives: to consolidate the new words

to practice pronouncing the sound []

At first have the pupils practise the sound [] in the words “father”, “mother” and “brother” after you in chorus and individually.

Then, in order to consolidate the new material you can ask the pupils to say the words on pictures or on fingers randomly. Show a number of pictures, the pupils say the word on it at first in chorus and then individually. The pupils are not required to give a full answer at this stage as “This is my mother”. It is enough to say one word, for example “mother”.

Then again repeat the entire poem. During the activity tell the pupils the meaning of the word “family”. After practising the pronunciation of the new words and consolidating them, ask the pupils to help Zumrad to name her family.

Now you can practise the pronunciation of all sentences line by line, at first in chorus, then individually.

This is a father.

This is a mother.

This is a brother.

This is a sister.

If there are strong pupils in the class, you can suggest them play Zumrad’s role and name the members of their family.
