Provide students with school and teacher supply catalogues and help them find pictures of school supplies they use. Assist students as they cut and paste their pictures to make collages and then make a list of the objects in their collage. Display collages on the bulletin board. For another display, have class members count the number of a specific school supply in the classroom each day, such as erasers or jars of glue. Have volunteers draw pictures of the item, such as ten rulers, in the form of a bar graph on a piece of chart paper. Students can then write a sentence to go with the picture. Family Connection School and Work Supplies Invite students to ask a family member to help them count different school supplies they have at home. Have children draw a picture of each item and write the number next to each picture. You may wish to have students discuss which supplies they use at school that family members also use at work. Encourage children to share what they learn with the class. Unit 1 T1B

Draw and count. 1. Direct students attention to the project title, Backpack Book. Relate the project to the rest of the unit by pointing out that the class has already talked about and counted a variety of classroom objects and supplies in pictures, stories, and in the classroom itself. 2. Explain that each student will now make a book about items inside his or her backpack. 3. Use the pictures to show that students will make one page of their book for each kind of classroom object. Point out that they will draw and label each object. When they are finished, help them make covers and put the books together. 4. Read the dialogue. Then choose two students to say the dialogue for the class. Put students in pairs and have them take turns showing each page and asking each other How many (notebooks) are there? 5. You may want to invite each student to read his or her book to the class, to another class, or to a group of parents. Enrichment Pass the books. Pass students books around. Have students open the books and take turns saying what they see on each page: There are (ten pencils). Then pass the books again and repeat. Pick it up! On two separate tables, place duplicate objects up to twenty. For example, have two sets of pencils, two sets of crayons, two sets of rulers, two sets of bottles of glue, and so on. Have students stand in two lines away from the table. Say Pick up eleven pencils! The first student in each line runs and picks up the correct number of pencils. The first one to hold them up gets a point. Continue this with other items. You may also play this with number cards. T11

25 Values Work Together Look and read. Role-play. Share markers and crayons. Take turns on the playground. How do you work together? Talk and write. 12 Character education

26 Application Objectives to talk about working together in school to become aware of sharing and taking turns as part of working together to role-play to write sentences Vocabulary nouns: crayons, markers, paper, playground, slide, table pronouns: I, you verbs: draw, share, slide, take (turns), work adverb: together Get Ready Sing a song. Play the audio of the Unit 1 song Time for School! (Class CD track A3) and invite students to sing along. The text for the audio is on Student Book page 2. Picture pass. Pass pictures or Picture Cards of classroom objects around the classroom. Ask students to hold up their pictures as you walk around. Ask a student What s this? The student answers It s a (pen). Repeat until all students have participated. Values: Work Together Look and read. Role-play. 1. As you work through the page, encourage students to apply the language they ve learned in this unit. To begin, however, you might want to have a discussion in your native language. Ask students what working together means. Is it important to work together? Why? Where do children need to work together? What are some examples of working together in school? 2. Draw students attention to page 12. Ask them to describe the pictures using the English they know. If necessary, provide words they need in English. Then read the sentences aloud and have students repeat. Point to the pictures to clarify meaning. 3. Review with students language they know that they can use during the role-play activity such as I need (a yellow crayon). Who has (one)? and I have (a yellow crayon). Here. Remind students to say thank you when someone shares something with them. Have students rehearse and then present their role-plays. 5. You may want to extend your students writing practice in paragraph form. On paper, have them indent and copy the sentence I work together with others in school as the first sentence of the paragraph. Then have them write detail sentences showing how they work together. Students can conclude with It s important to work with others. The social-emotional intelligence connection. Two elements of social-emotional intelligence can be focused on in relation to working together. (1) Self-awareness. Encourage students to think about the kind of students they are. Are they cooperative? Do they work well with others? (2) Self-management. Encourage students to think of ways additional ways they can work well together in school. Family connection. Have students ask their families how families can work together. Do family members share? Take turns? How? Have students report back to the class. How do you work together? Talk and write. 4. Help students with the language they need to describe their own ways of working together. This is the perfect opportunity for students to use the cumulative English they ve acquired in a natural and meaningful context. Unit 1 T12

27 Review Outcomes can identify classroom objects can talk about school-related actions can use contractions Vocabulary nouns: backpack, bottle, eraser, glue, notebook, scissors, tape verbs: color, count, cut, erase, glue, listen, play, read, talk, use, write Materials scissors picture cards on page 127 Performance Assessment Both activities on page 13 may be used as opportunities for performance assessment and review. See pages v vi, xiii xv of the Assessment Package for more information on this type of informal assessment. Know It? Show It! Look at the pictures. Write the words. 1. Direct students attention to the pictures and crossword puzzle at the top half of the page. Explain that students will use the pictures to help them identify the words in the puzzle. Point out that some words go across and others go down. 2. Have pairs of students work on the puzzle together. As they work, walk around the room and monitor their understanding of the vocabulary. Answers: Across: 1. scissors 2. eraser 3. backpack Down: 4. notebook 5. glue 6. tape Cut out the picture cards on page 127. Match the pictures. 1. Have students cut out the picture cards on page 127. Say the dialogue. Then choose two students to repeat the conversation. Make sure students understand that they will use this pattern as they play the game. 2. Students play the game in pairs. Have partners combine their cards, mix them up, and spread them on the table facedown. 3. Partners take turns picking up one card and then trying to find a matching picture. As they pick up each card, students must describe the picture. Students continue until all the cards have been matched. The student with the most matching pairs wins. 4. As students play the game, walk around the room and monitor their ability to use the language and vocabulary. Note errors to review after the game is finished. WB Assign pages 8 9 now. Answers are on page T128. I can do it! Once students have demonstrated success through the activities on this page, discuss with them how much they ve learned and what they can do now that they re finishing the unit. (See the Assessment Package, pages vii viii.) Invite students to mark their growth by checking the I can do it! star. Completion Certificate Students have now completed Unit 1.
