Unit 1 Greetings

Activity 2 Play “I’ve got a balloon”.

Objectives: to introduce the new words “kite” and “balloon”

to practise the pronunciation of the sound [].

STEP 1: Ask the pupils whether they like balloons. Receiving an affirmative answer, say that the balloon in English is called “balloon”. After that, practice its pronunciation in the sentence “I’ve got a balloon”.

Further, say that there are balloons that fly high in the sky. They can also fly “a kite” high in the sky. After that, work on the pronunciation of the sound [] in the word and the sentence “I’ve got a kite”.

STEP 2: Next, say that we also love balloons because they are colourful and offer the pupils to learn to talk about the balloons of different colours as follows:

Say ‘This is a balloon’ and add ‘It’s red’.

Then say ‘This is a balloon. It’s green’.

First, work on the pronunciation in chorus and individually according to the pictures. Then invite the pupils to choose a coloured balloon and speak about it like ‘This is a balloon. It’s pink.’

Then work on the sentences with kites: ‘This is a kite. It’s purple’, etc.
