Unit 8
Socio-cultural:
– to raise awareness of the
seasons and the ways of say-
ing
weather and activities
one can do, etc.
Activity 1 Listen and guess.
Objective: to consolidate the learnt material
A game, where a leader shows a kind of weather with his
hands and the rest of the class name the weather. it might be
vise versa. When somebody in the class names the weather and
the leader shows it.
It’s sunny. It’s cloudy. It’s rainy. It’s windy. It’s snowy.
Activity 2 Play “
What season is it?”
Objective: to consolidate the previously learnt vocabulary and
structures
STEP 1: Divide the class into four groups. each group is given
a picture of a season which they must keep a secret. The task for
each team is to ask questions from other teams and to guess the
teams’ seasons in accordance with their responses.
explain that the pupils need to ask questions at first about
the weather. each team is asked one question. The teams ask
clockwise:
Is it sunny? Is it cloudy? Is it rainy? Is it windy? Is it snowy?
The teams’ answers can be “Yes.” or “no.”
You can help with gestures (as in the game “forecasters”) and
stick the flashcards on the blackboard.
The pupils will see there
what questions to ask.
At first, it is better to work out all the questions in chorus
and individually. Draw the pupils’ attention to the intonation of
questions. Also ask the children to memorise the answers of each
team.
STEP 2: When all the teams have finished asking each other
questions, they will start guessing the season of each team. how-
ever, you should say that the pupils still have to ask questions
about what they can do in their season (What can you do?).
Again, everybody repeats the question all together in chorus.
Then the representatives of each team say what they can do, but
they do not name their season. The children
can give one or two
responses at will.
I can swim. I can run.
I can play football. I can jump a rope.

Unit 8
I can ski. I can play snowballs.
I can fly a kite. I can jump.
Ask the children not to say another team’s season until they
are completely sure, because if they make mistakes, they will
lose. Therefore, recommend that they should ask the last ques-
tion about colour.
Is it red? Is it yellow? Is it green? Is it white?
The teams’ answers can be “Yes.” or “no.” if the answer is
“no”, the question about the colour can be asked more than once.
