2. First activity: To begin with the class we are going to introduce personal pronouns (He and She)
and verb To Be in the present simple form. We will use pink and blue flashcards with the pronouns
“she” and “he” written on them, another flashcard with the verb to be written on it, and the
flashcards about adjectives from the previous class. Then we are going to form ‘human sentences’
standing in the right order, showing them how sentences work. For example, “She is old”, “He is
young”.
Second Activity: Then, we are going to work with the book, they will have to solve activities
completing with the pronouns ‘he’ and ‘she’.
Third Activity: Afterwards, we are going to work with a reading activity. We will read a short text
in which there is a description of a boy’s family. As we read we will ask the children for the
meaning of each sentence and this will help them to understand and to describe their own
families then in the next activity.
Fourth activity: For the next activity we will use photos from the children’s families (We will ask
them to bring them in the previous class) and they will have to describe a member of the family,
saying which family member is and which is her or his name using ‘this is’ and ‘she/he’. (Example:
This is John, he is my father). They will use the previous short text as a model.
Fifth activity: Put words in order Game
This game consists in that we will divide the class into two groups who will have to form a queue
then at the back of the classroom. There will be pictures of different people stuck on the
blackboard and there will also be some flashcards on two tables near the blackboard. With these
flashcards which will have words such as pronouns, adjectives and verb to be, children of both
groups will have to pick and stick the suitable one near the picture to form a short sentence
describing such pictures.
The first group to complete the four sentences describing the photos will win.
