Warm up

• Take out the photos you've brought of your family members. Hold them up, point to each family member and introduce him/her to Ss. Include each family member's name. Say, This is my father, Tom. This is my mother, Kim. etc.

• Alternatively, you could draw your family members on the board and introduce them to Ss.

Vocabulary

• Have Ss open their books to pages 32-33 and point out Ron's family members in the vocabulary section. Play the CD a few times and have Ss point to the family members and repeat.

• Say the family members again in random order and have Ss repeat and point.

• Then, say the family members in random order and have Ss point to Ron's family members in the presentation.

Listen and sing. Послухай та заспівай.

• Ask Ss (in L1) what they see in the picture. (Ron is introducing the members of his family to Betty.) Tell Ss that they're going to listen to a song. Ask them to guess what it's going to be about.

• Play the song once and have Ss listen. • Play the song a second time and have Ss point to the corresponding family members as they listen. Play the song again if necessary.

• When Ss feel comfortable, invite them to sing the song.

Transcript Track 34

My family This is my mother. This is my father.

How are you? Fine thank you. This is my sister. This is my brother.

How are you? Fine thank you. How are you? Fine and you?

• Draw Ss' attention to the pictures.

Tell Ss that this is Ron's family and that each picture depicts one member of his family.

• Explain to Ss that they should point to each picture and say each family member aloud.

• Draw Ss' attention to the photo and ask them to guess what is happening. (The teacher says a family member aloud (father) and the Ss who have drawn that family member, say the word and show their drawing.)

Point and say.

Покажи та скажи.

Let's play! Зіграймо!

• Tell Ss that each one should draw one of their family members (father, mother, brother, sister).

• Explain that you are going to call out family members in random order and the Ss who have drawn the family member you call out each time, should show their drawing and say the word.

OPTIONAL

Say if it's true!

• Stick the family flashcards on the board using Blu-tack.

Explain to Ss that when you point to a flashcard and say the word depicted on it, they have to repeat the word, whereas when you say the wrong word for a flashcard you're pointing to, Ss will have to fold their arms and stay silent.

• For example, if you're pointing to the mother flashcard and you say, mother, Ss will have to repeat the word. But if you're pointing to the father flashcard and say, brother, Ss will have to fold their arms in front of them and remain silent.

Workbook (OPTIONAL)

1. Tell Ss that they will listen to Ron introducing his family members and that they will have to match each number to a family member in the order in which they hear him/her being mentioned.

• Play the CD and have Ss do the activity.

• Play the CD twice if necessary.
