Unit 1 Greetings

Activity 4 Play “Interview”.

Objective: to consolidate the questions and answers learnt in Unit 1 and this lesson.

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

This time add the question “How old are you? ” and its answer.
Suggestion: If you feel your pupils are tired or bored, you can do an energising activity with the numbers 1-10, 10-1 as you did in Unit 2, Lesson 1, Activity 3.

Activity 5 Look, listen and repeat.

Objectives: to recycle the learnt structure

to introduce more vocabulary (ruler, crayon)

STEP 1: When you first use the pictures of objects and then real objects, it makes the tasks interesting, as a result the children feel less tired. You should avoid long monotonous tasks. For a change and increasing motivation, you can ask the objects of various pupils. This can be done with the purpose of encouraging the pupils. You can come up a pupil and say that this pupil is trying very hard, and then take his/her pen or pencil and show it to the class and have the class name it: This is a pen. This is a pencil. This is a book. This is a bag. This is a copybook. This method is sure to encourage your pupils to try more.

STEP 2: Offer the pupils to learn two more things: a ruler and a crayon, and ask the pupils whether they are necessary for them. Confirm yourself that they are. Without a ruler they cannot draw a straight line or without the crayons they cannot colour the pictures.

Next, offer the pupils to learn to pronounce them correctly with the new structure “This is a ...”. Have them practise in chorus and individually. Then mix old and new pictures and repeat them together with the class.
