In the woods
I can see
So many animals
Looking at me.
Activity 2 Look, listen and say.
Objective: to introduce the new vocabulary about wild animals
STEP 1: Tell the pupils that they have already met the word “animals” in the previous topic which was about domestic animals. Explain that now they will start learning about wild animals which live only in the woods. Then ask the pupils to look at the picture.
Say that in fact, all these animals are not found together in the same forest but our forest is magical. Then ask the pupils to say the animals which they can find in the picture. Explain that even though the forest is magical, the beasts like to hide from people.
As soon as the pupils find the animals and say them, you should hang the flashcards with these animals (crocodile, frog, parrot, bear, hare, monkey, tiger, elephant) on the blackboard and practise their pronunciation in chorus and individually.
STEP 2: Now invite the pupils to play miming. Explain that a leader goes to the blackboard and silently mimes an animal. The other pupils watch and guess which animal it is. If they guessed, they ask ‘Crocodile?’, ‘Elephant?’, etc. The leader answers ‘Yes. / No.’
