Optional activity
Game “Repeat if it’s true”
Stick a set of flashcards on the blackboard. Point to one of the flashcards and say a season or a month. If you have said the correct name, children repeat it. If not, they stay silent. This activity can be made more challenging if you say sentences e. g. “It’s yellow autumn”.
Practice
3. Choose and complete (p. 101, ex. 2).
Ask pupils to read the words in the box.
Pair work: Ask pupils to complete the sentences using the words from the box. Tell pupils to remember they can use the same words more than once.
Pupils fill the gaps in the text, using the words from the box to make true statements about autumn.
If you have some time, you can ask pupils to write the sentences down in their exercise books.
Ask a bright pupil to write the sentences on the board too.
Then ask pupils to describe autumn.
Optional activity
Game “Disappearing cards”
Stick from five to seven flashcards “Activities in winter/summer” on the board. Do choral repetition of the words. Then remove one of the flashcards in the sequence. Pupils chant the whole sequence of the words, including the missing one. Repeat removing another flashcard. Continue until there are no flashcards on the board and pupils are saying the whole sequence from memory. You can also play the game by writing seven words on the board, then rubbing them out one at a time.
