Activity 1 Listen and say.
Objective: to warm up and revise colours
Ask the pupils to listen to the poem and then sing the song all together.
Tapescript:
Spring is green
Summer is red
Autumn is yellow
Winter is white
Ask the pupils what the song they have just sung was about. After receiving some answers, summarise them and say that we have four seasons and each season has its own colour.


Activity 2 Look, listen and say.
Objectives: to introduce the new words “winter, spring, summer, autumn” and the structure “It’s winter.”;
to practise the pronunciation of the sound []
STEP 1: After the explanation in Activity 1, take the first line of the song “Spring is green” and ask the pupils to translate it into their native language. Accepting the answers, say that it is correct. Further, explain that in spring green leaves and grasses appear, therefore, it is green. Here put a picture of spring on the blackboard. Then ask what other colours are in the song. Summer - red, autumn - yellow and winter - white. Put their pictures on the blackboard and then work on the pronunciation of all the seasons, especially the sound [] in “spring” in chorus and individually. First, show the pictures in order, and then randomly.
STEP 2: After consolidating the individual words, introduce the structure “It’s winter”. Tell the pupils that you will now ask the question “What time of the year is it?” or “What season is it?” (in mother tongue). Explain that the word “fasl/сезон” means a certain time of the year, and in English this word is “season”. Then say the question “What season is it?”, and explain that it is necessary to answer this question as “It’s winter”, “It’s spring”, “It’s summer” and “It’s autumn”. After that, work on the pronunciation of the phrases in chorus and individually. Then ask questions about the pictures, the pupils respond. First, all together in chorus, and then individually, pictures in a row and at random.
