Warm-up: Mystery bag and Hello song
Aims
To get Ss ready for the lesson, review the words from the previous lesson and arouse their interest in the topic 'things I have'.
Content
Ss sing the Hello song and then guess the object in the mystery bag by saying: 'I have a …' (T gives an example first: 'I have a cup.'). Ss look at the objects and say the names of the objects.
Expected outcomes
Ss can greet the teacher in English, name at least two objects in the mystery bag and use the pattern I have a + noun with help from the teacher.
Procedure
Teacher's activities
Pupils' activities
Teacher
T greets the class: 'Hello, everyone! How are you?' T sings the Hello song with actions and asks Ss to join in. T puts a cup, a ball and a book into the mystery bag and says: 'Let's play a game! Guess what I have in the bag.'
Pupils
Ss greet the teacher and sing the song with actions. Ss listen to the game rules and watch the teacher.
Teacher
T takes out one object at a time and models the sentence: 'I have a cup.' T asks: 'What do I have?' and gives Ss time to answer. T repeats the pattern with the other objects.
Pupils
Ss answer the question 'What do you have?' with 'I have a cup.' Expected answer: 'I have a ball.' / 'I have a book.' Ss repeat the sentences after T.
Teacher
T asks a few Ss to come to the front, take a guess from the bag and say the sentence: 'I have a …'. T gives feedback on the pronunciation.
Pupils
Some Ss come to the front, touch an object in the bag and say 'I have a …'. Other Ss listen and clap if the sentence is correct.
Teacher
T praises the class and introduces the topic of the lesson: 'Today we will learn how to say I have a cat, I have a car, I have a cake.'
Pupils
Ss write the title of the lesson in their notebook and say 'Yes, teacher!'
