UNIT - DAILY LIFE

In this unit students learned to recognize the characteristics of their families, the roles of family members and friends in their daily lives, as well as the features of their daily lives (with an emphasis of the sequence of the days and their school schedules). We worked with “What have you got (on)…” and “I have got…” sentence structures.
We began the unit with the story “Goldilocks and the three bears” and reviewed the members of the family: granddad, granny, mum, dad, sister, and brother. Students then made their own family trees using family pictures which they pasted in the appropriate boxes.

Students then classified activities such as sleeping, learning, eating, showering, playing, reading, cleaning, washing the dishes, watering the plants etc depending on if they are done at school or at home. At school, students have a variety of subjects. After seeing the difference between weekends and school days in a month, students learned about the subjects they have at school: language, maths, religion, English, computers, science, P.E., music and art. They decided which subjects they liked and disliked, and which ones were their favorite.
For the end of the unit activity, the students wrote an imaginary letter describing what classes they have every day, their age and where they live.
