Unit my Family Lesson Let’s play! Objectives

Optional Activity 5 Play “What season is it?”
Objectives: to consolidate the new vocabulary and the structure
During the group work, each pupil worked only with his/her season. This task tests all the pupils’ knowledge of all the seasons.
Tell the children that you want to check if everybody remembers the seasons. Collect all the cut pieces of pictures again. Put them in a bag and mix. The bag should be opaque.
Then pull out of the bag one of the fragments of a flashcard, show it to the children and ask “What season is it?” The children should determine the season according to the colour and say “It’s winter”, etc.


Homework:
Explain to the pupils that at home they should draw and colour the picture on the right hand page. Ask them to remember how to say a season they learnt during the last lesson.

Activity 2 Play “What Colour is Winter?”
Objective: to introduce the question “What colour is winter?” and the answer “Winter is white”.
First, repeat the material of the previous lesson on the seasons and the question “What season is it?” Show the pictures of all the seasons, ask questions about them and get answers like “It’s winter”.
Then say that you will now ask a new question about the song “Spring is green”, and ask “What colour is winter?”. Explain that the word “colour” denotes “rang/цвет” and the question “What colour is winter?” means “Qish qanday rangda?/Какого цвета зима?” in Uzbek/Russian. Ask the pupils whether they remember what colour the winter is. Surely, their answer will be “oq/белая”. Clarify that “oq/белая” is “white” in English. After that, together with the children practise the answer “Winter is white”.
Further, explain that the children need to be careful because they will have to say the colour of the season which is said in the question. So ask “What colour is spring?” and have the pupils translate the question into their native language. Then ask pupils to answer the question. Listen to the answers and select the right one. Praise the children and say that the answer is correct because “spring” is “bahor/весна”, and the spring is green. So the correct answer is “Spring is green”. After that, work on the sentence in chorus. Further, work on the rest seasons of the year.
The children must be taught to give an answer as it sounds in the song.
