STEP 1: Say: ‘Open your books.’ Point to the pictures. Ask: ‘What can you see?’ Accept anything reasonable and praise pupils. Say: ‘In England people celebrate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.’ And ask: ‘Do we celebrate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day?’ Elicit some answers and conclude: ‘We celebrate Mother’s Day and we call it Women’s Day. But we don’t celebrate Father’s Day.’
