We read and practiced a short conversation to review « Can » and vocabulary.
Then we did a listening comprehension on that by matching the right picture to each dialogue.
We tried to ask and answer questions by « Can ». On page 50 and 51 we answered the questions about the grammar and vocabulary of the last units. It was so useful and it was a chance to check.
At the end of the class we made posters. We had the images of a park and some toys to color, cut, and stick.
Today, we talked about a day to spend at the beach. We learned some new words like sea, shell, crab, sand, etc.
We sang a new song and tried to repeat them.
Then we talked about E and T and the pronunciation of /et/. We tried to find examples like pet and net. Also we asked and answered questions about animals and pets. Do you have a pet? Do you like it?
Looking at a page with the image of plants and flowers, we talked about colors. Red, green, blue, etc. We practiced by asking and answering some questions. What color is your pencil case? What color is her shirt? Is it pink?
On the next page we started counting from the beginning to review the numbers and then we wrote new numbers. We tried to count different things in the photo.
At the end of the class we talked about a new form of question; How many…….?
For example:
How many books are there in the class? How many books are there? How many doors are there? The children asked and answered question. There are 4 girls in the class.
