Activity 1 Look, listen and tick.
Objectives: to develop listening and oral abilities
to recycle the toys
Before the test, hang the flashcards with toys on the blackboard. Have the pupils repeat their names and colours in chorus. Use the structure “This is a balloon. It’s pink.” Ask “What’s this?” pointing to the flashcard, and then ask the pupils how they can say “Mening koptogim bor / У меня есть мяч” in English. After getting the answer “I’ve got a ball” have the pupils repeat it in chorus. After practising all the words and structures, you may ask the pupils to open the books.
Ask the pupils to look at the picture number 1 closely. Discuss the picture 1 with the pupils and find out what they are and what colour they are in mother tongue. They are a blue ball, a red ball and a blue balloon. Then ask the pupils if they remember the names of these things and their colours in English. After that, explain the task: you will describe an object, and they have to guess what object you are describing. When the pupils find the right object, they put a tick under a corresponding picture. After you make sure that all the pupils have understood the task correctly, read the task 1 and repeat it 2-3 times.
When the pupils have finished, ask all of them to pick up their books and show in pencil what picture they have ticked. You must monitor how many pupils have coped and how many have not coped with the task. Then read your description of an object again and have the pupils translate it into their mother tongue: “Mening koptogim bor / У меня есть мяч”. There are 2 balls in the pictures of the first task. But which one is correct? It’s blue. So the correct answer is the blue ball. Ask again if everybody have understood how to perform the task. If you are asked questions, answer them.
Next, ask the pupils to look at the drawings of the second task. There is a car and two kites. Ask the pupils to recall their names, “a kite, a car”, and then their colours, “yellow, green”. Tell the pupils again that they have to listen carefully and choose the right picture. Say that every task will be repeated 3 times, and read the text number 2 three times. When the pupils have finished, ask all of them to pick up their books and show in pencil what picture they have ticked. Select one of the pupils who has finished the task correctly, and ask him/her to tell you why s/he has chosen this picture. Ask the class if they agree with him/her or not, and what they have chosen. You can read the text again and check the task with the class. It’s a yellow kite.
Similarly, read the task 3 and check it.
