Activity 3 Play “Look and guess”.  
Objective: to introduce the new vocabulary
STEP 1: say that the new Year is approaching; therefore, 
many people will have a decorated new Year tree at home. Then 
offer the pupils to start preparing for the new Year right now!
Ask the children to imitate a new Year tree. For this, the 
child stands straight. he/she keeps his/her one hand or two 
hands up over himself/herself. it is a star. here teach the word 
“new Year tree”.
Further, say that a true snowman must wear a hat (pretend 
that you are holding a hat on your head) and have a broom stick 
(your one hand to the side, as if you are holding a broom). Re-
peat the word “snowman”, finally, “Father Frost”. show him 
as in the rhyme, as if he is carrying a big bag with gifts on his 
back.
STEP 2: Together with the pupils once more repeat all the 
words: new Year tree, snowman, Father Frost. invite 3-4 volun-
teers to the blackboard. You will say one of the three words and 
they will imitate or they will imitate one of the three new Year 
elements and the rest will guess.
