Practice
New words
• Show the pictures of the new words on the the interactive
white board. Point to the items, one at a time, and say the
corresponding words. The pupils repeat, chorally and/or
individually. Point to each item in random order. Ask
individual pupils to name them
.
Ask students
to open their books at page 13.
• Show that the animal
pictured in the example is a mixture of a tiger and a polar
bear.
Ask students to name
this invented animal,
e.g.
a polar
tiger, a tiger bear.
• Students work in pairs
to identify the rest of the animals. Tell them one of the words
(horse) will be used
twice.
• Play the
recording.
• Students listen to it,
check their answers and repeat the
words.
• Elicit names for the
invented animals and write them on the
board.
Pair
work
• Read out the
instructions. Make sure that students know what they have to
do.
• Put students in pairs
to copy and complete the chart. Ask students to do this in two
stages: first complete the chart with pets / farm animals
/ wild animals and then
with land /water animals.
• Check
answers.
• To
extend the work on the animals
vocabulary, you could ask students to turn to the
Vocabulary bank on page 117 and do
the Jog your memory! exercises.
• Write a few words on
the board which students can use in their descriptions,
e.g. wing, tail, fur, feather, trunk, claw,
beak. Teach the meaning of
these words by drawing basic pictures of animals and labelling the
relevant part of the animal, e.g. draw an elephant and label its
trunk.
• While students are
writing their descriptions, monitor and help with
vocabulary.
• Put students in pairs
to describe their invented animals to each
other.
• Ask some students to
tell the class about their partner’s
animal.
• You could put the
pictures up on the wall and do a vote to find out the class’s
favourite.
