Unit all about me Lesson I can speak English Forms: Date

Activity 1b Write in order. 10 min

Objective: to enable pupils to put the months in order

STEP 1: Check the pupils’ knowledge of the order of the months by asking if there is anybody who can say the months in order in their mother tongue. Ask a pupil to say them. When s/he finishes, ask some more pupils to do the same.

STEP 2: Ask the pupils to open their Workbooks and look at

the jumbled months. explain that the order of the months in English is just the same as in the mother tongue: it also begins with

January and ends with December. Then ask them to choose the month February among the jumbled ones and write the number 2 on it. explain that this because February is the second month of the year. When you see everything is clear to everybody, say that they should go on in this manner until they have numbered all the months.
