Activity 6 Look, listen and repeat.
Objective: to practise saying the colours
From this lesson on the pupils are gradually familiarised with colours.
At this lesson you will start to introduce the main colours to the pupils; they are red, yellow and green. These colours will be repeated at the subsequent lessons where one more colour will simultaneously be introduced in addition to them. The work on colours should be carried out in parallel with the main theme. In such a way colours will gradually be entered into the basic structures. Colours will appear in structures for the first time in the second quarter, in Unit 5. By this time the pupils will step by step memorise many colours and the pupils will have chance to build more difficult structures of type “I’ve got a red ball” easier.
It is possible to use colour flashcards, crayons or other subjects for introducing these colours. At first one colour, red is introduced. The pupils study this colour in chorus and say it individually. In this way other colours are also introduced. Then you may show multi-coloured flashcards randomly and the pupils repeat them again in chorus.
You can also teach the colours by using the DVD animation for the current activity in the same way. When the streetlight flashes colours, say them and ask the pupils to repeat them between the pauses. After that, the pupils will have to say the colours between the pauses of the streetlight themselves.


Optional Activity 7 Look, listen and point.
Objective: to practise more saying the colours
Explain to the pupils that now you want to check how much they have remembered these colours. Say that now you will name a colour but not show a flashcard. The pupils should understand the colour on hearing, find an object of this colour and point to it. It can be clothes, a picture in the class, etc. It is clear that the pupils should stand up and move around during this game.

IV. Consolidation. To ask questions, work in pairs, watch interesting cartoons.
