• Draw Ss’ attention to the pictures shown in activity 2, and ask them what they can see (two children playing in the snow, two children planting a tree, two children playing in the park and two children swimming).

• Ask Ss what season it is in each picture (a. winter, b. spring, c. autumn, d. summer).

• Read the title of the song, and ask Ss to say what they think it is about. (It is about the four seasons.)

• Explain to Ss that they are going to listen to a song, and that they have to follow along in their books and match the lines of the song with the pictures a-d Direct Ss’ attention to the presentation and ask them where the children are. (They are in the game.)

Presentation Grammar.

• Explain to Ss that we use the Present Simple for habitual actions.

• Point out that we usually add an -s to the verb in the third person singular (he/she/it). Say, I play in the park on Saturday - He plays in the park on Saturday and have Ss repeat after you.

• Write, I go to school at eight o’clock on the board, and draw Ss’ attention to the verb go. Explain that verbs ending in -s, -ss, -sh, -ch, -x and -o, take an -es in the third person singular.

Activity 3. Listen and number.

• Draw Ss’ attention to the pictures and ask them to tell you what they can see in each one.

• Explain that they have to listen to the recording and put the pictures in the correct order (1-4), according to what they hear.

• Play the recording twice and have Ss do the activity.

• Have Ss compare their answers in pairs first, then check as a class.

Formative Assessment. Speak and discuss. Role-play.

• Students are divided into pairs and are given 1 card with the word or a picture – from the set of cards LP 5 (sunny weather, cold, rainy, hot, snowy).
