Target language:Present continuous

Target vocabulary: Telling the time: one o’clock, quarter past one, half past one, quarter to twoVerbs: eat, drink, work, drive, teach, help, go, make

Song 1Aim This song practises asking about time, telling the time and using the present continuous. It puts the present continuous in a context where it is clearly used to talk about something happening at a specific time.

Before • Use the class poster for unit four to revise telling the time. Ask What’s the time? And point to the different clocks.• Practise more by drawing clocks with different times on the board and asking pupils to call out the times.• Make sure pupils understand the word clock. • Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind the class of the tune. • Ask pupils to stand. Play the song through again and encourage pupils to sing along as the words to the song pop up at the bottom of the screen. Do any movements and sing with the pupils. (Move fingers from side to side like a metronome for tick tock.)

Song tapescriptTick tock, tick tockLook at the clock.What’s the time?It’s one o’clock.

Tick tock, tick tockIt’s quarter past one.Tick tock, tick tockIt’s half past one.

Tick tock, tick tockIt’s quarter to two.Hurry up!I’m waiting for you!

After • Ask individual pupils to draw their own clocks on pieces of paper. Then ask them to hold up their clocks and ask What’s the time? It doesn’t matter if pupils draw times that aren’t taught because they know

numbers and telling the time follows the same logic. If this happens, encourage pupils in a learning task. Song 2AimThis song exploits the verbs from this unit, using them either in an imperative or a present continuous form.

Before• Use flashcards to review the different verbs. Hold up the flashcards. Ask What is he/she doing? Help pupils to use the present continuous by prompting them.• It isn’t necessary to pre-teach all of the new vocabulary, much of it is illustrated in the actual DVD. Remind pupils of the words breakfast, tea and go home.• Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up on screen. • Play the song one last time separating the class into three groups and assigning a section to each pupil.

Song tapescriptGet up and Eat your breakfast Drink your tea It’s half past eight.

Drive the bus to school Work hard all dayGo home at fiveNow I want to play.

Teacher’s …teaching Maths todayMum is …making ice cream cakeDad is … helping in the gardenI’m hungry now. It’s half past seven.

After• Stick the flashcards up on the board, so that they are visible. Ask pupils to come to the front of the class and mime one of the verbs. This can also include any other verbs from the song. For example, get up. Ask What is he/she doing? and encourage pupils to guess.

After • Ask individual pupils which musical instrument is their favourite and if they are learning to play a musical instrument. Ask the class What can you play … ?

Song 2AimThis song consolidates lexis for the months of the year.

Before• In order to teach this vocabulary, it would be useful to have a flip over calendar with pictures illustrating the different months. Alternatively, drill the months as a chant, starting from January. Explain to pupils that they are going to practise the months of the year. Say the months and encourage pupils to repeat. • Once pupils seem to be able to repeat the months, write some of the months on the board and elicit the missing months. Write them in so that a complete set is written on the board. • Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up on screen.

Target language:Present simple; always, sometimes, never

Target vocabulary: Jobs: teacher, doctor, singer, taxi driver, pilot, waiter, vet, builderSchool subjects: maths, history, geography, art, music, PE, French, English

Song 1Aim This song provides a vehicle for practising and consolidating the lexis for jobs. It also reintroduces and reminds pupils of the present simple, especially using third person –s.

Before • Use the class poster for unit six to revise the target lexis. Point to the different characters and allow pupils to call out the job words. Use the actual character names in the song to bring the characters to life. Say What does Suzy do? Or What’s Suzy’s job? She’s a singer. Encourage pupils to answer your questions in a similar fashion. Point to the characters as you ask.• Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind the class of the tune. Demonstrate movements where appropriate to illustrate meaning. For example, teaches (point to the board), sings (hold up a microphone), drives (moving a steering wheel), flies (up and down movements with arms out as wings), brings food (pretend to balance a tray on your palm), helps (put arms around yourself), looks after (stroking motion), fix (hammer action). • Ask pupils to stand. Play the song through again. Encourage pupils to sing along and do the movements as the words to the song pop up at the bottom of the screen. • Play the song one last time. Separate the class into four groups and assign a verse to each group. Sing along with the pupils for encouragement.

Vicky vet, Vicky vet She looks after your poor pet.Bill the builder, Bill the builderFix the roof my feet are wet!

After • Ask questions about the different characters using the verbs from the song. For example, ask Who sings songs? Who teaches in a school?• To round off, ask pupils if they know any people who do these jobs.

Song 2AimThis is more of a chant than a song. It merely helps pupils vocalise lexis for school subjects.

Before• Use the flashcards to remind pupils of the vocabulary for school subjects. Hold up the flashcards and ask What school subject is this? Let pupils call out. • Elicit the different subjects that pupils cover themselves at school or private language schools. Ask What subjects do you do at school? • Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up at the bottom of the screen.

After• Ask individual pupils What is your favourite subject? Work your way round the class asking different pupils. • Round off by asking pupils to draw one thing from their favourite lesson. Pupils will then hold up their pictures so that the class can guess what their favourite lesson is. Go round giving pupils ideas for objects to draw, for example, a paint brush for art, musical notes for music, a football for PE etc.

Target language:Must / Mustn’t; Can … ? (permission)

Target vocabulary: Imperatives: be careful, listen, don’t talk, be quiet, hurry, don’t runParties: party, invitation, present, balloons, food, soft drinks, music, games

Song 1Aim This song provides a vehicle for practising simple imperatives. It also introduces the word rules in preparation for presentation of must and mustn’t. The song sets up a useful context of rules versus desire to play.

Before • Use the class poster for unit seven to revise the target lexis. • First in order to set the scene for using these imperative commands elicit from pupils what is happening in each picture. Use the verbs already learnt and the present continuous. • Then point to each situation and say, for example, She’s cooking. The food is hot. Then call out Be careful. Go through the poster like this to help pupils remember. Then, point and allow pupils to call out the phrases. Say Look at the picture. What do we say? / What does he / she say?• Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind the class of the tune. Demonstrate any movements that are a natural accompaniment to the words. For example, wagging your finger for be careful, hand to ear action for listen etc. • Ask pupils to stand. Play the song through again. Encourage pupils to sing along and do the movements as the words to the song pop up at the bottom of the screen.

Song tapescriptBe careful!Be quiet!Don’t talk!Don’t run!

These are the rulesThey’re not fun!

Hurry! Listen!Do what I say!

Oh no, oh noI just want to play!

Be careful! Be quiet!Don’t talk! Don’t run!Hurry! Listen!Do what I say!

Oh no, oh noI just want to play!

After • Write Classroom rules on the board, and write down a variety of imperatives down the side, for example, Don’t listen, Listen, Run, Don’t run, Play, Be quiet, Don’t talk, Talk.• Ask pupils to tell you the rules for their classroom choosing from this list.

Song 2AimThis is quite a fast paced song. It helps pupils practise lexis for parties.

Before• Elicit from pupils all the things that they need for a good party and write these words on the board.• Clean the board and play a simple memory game. Go round the class asking pupils to remember one thing that is necessary for parties. Move round the class asking for a new word, but each pupil asked must remember the previous words said. Keep count of the words said so that the game stops once the eight party words from unit seven have been said. Pupils may prompt each other so that remembering all the previous words said becomes more of a chant.• Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up at the bottom of the screen.

Song tapescriptA party! A party!Let’s have fun!A party! A party!Here I come!

Repeat the different items of vocabulary. Then encourage pupils to describe the different films. • Because there is a big overlap in meaning of some of the adjectives, make sure that pupils are aware of the words which have positive meaning, negative meaning, or are neutral. Draw three columns on the board. Put a tick and a cross at the top of the outer columns and a tick and a cross at the top of the middle column.• Ask pupils Which are good adjectives? Which are bad etc. Fill in the chart and leave it on the board.

✔ ✔ ✘ ✘

After • Write the word bumble-bee on the board. Make a bee noise and ask pupils to guess what it is.• Ask pupils if they watch films or sometimes go to the cinema with their parents. If they do, try and encourage pupils to use one of the adjectives to describe a film that they have seen. Equally you could do this with reference to a book or a game.

Song 2AimThis song helps pupils practise the lexis for family.

Before• First do a quick review of the family lexis that pupils should already know. Ask Have you got any brothers and sisters? Write only child on the board and explain that an only child doesn’t have brothers or sisters. Then write twins on the board and explain the meaning. Ask if there are any twins in the class. Then ask whether pupils mothers and fathers have brothers and sisters and write aunt, uncle and subsequently cousin on the board. Ask How many cousins have you got?• Say Now, listen to the song. Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up at the bottom of the screen. • Play the song once more and separate the class into three groups. Ask each group to sing one verse.

After• Ask pupils to draw a very simple family tree. Explain to pupils that they should draw themselves in the middle of the tree, then draw lines or branches to all the different people in their family (brothers, sisters, aunts, cousins etc).

Target language:Past simple irregular verbs

Target vocabulary: Travel and transport: ferry, coach, van, helmet, seat belt, motorbike, ticket, bus stopOrdinal numbers: first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth

Song 1Aim This song provides a context for practice and consolidation of travel and transport words, linking these words to going away on holiday.

Before • Use the class poster for unit eleven to revise the travel and transport lexis. • Point to the different items on the poster and let pupils call out the lexis. • Write the phrase get on on the board. Explain to pupils that all these people are getting on the ferry. Ask Where are these people going? Elicit the word holiday.• Say Now, let’s listen to the song. Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind the class of the tune. • Ask pupils to stand. Play the song through again.

Where’s your ticket?Find it, man!Find it now!Yes, you can.

Hurry, hurry!Don’t be late!It’s holiday timeIt’s really great!

After • Ask pupils what time the ferry leaves, and what time the coach leaves. (Eight o’clock and half past eight).

Song 2AimThis song helps pupils use ordinal numbers. It also introduces additional countries. This lexis is not intended to be taught but is merely there for added interest and context. Most of these countries are similar enough to the Greek word to be understandable, but there is no need to draw too much attention to this.

Before• Pupils should be sufficiently familiar with numbers one to ten, but you could do a general review of teens using the flashcards. • Write multiples of ten on the board to review higher numbers. Let pupils call out the numbers until you get a chant going.• Wipe the board and then write up ordinal numbers in figures. Encourage pupils to repeat the ordinals after you without actually writing down the word.• Say Now, listen to the song. Play the song once through without stopping the DVD to remind pupils of the tune. • Play the song again. Encourage pupils to sing along when the words pop up at the bottom of the screen. Encourage pupils to hold up the right number of fingers as they sing along. Don’t worry too much if pupils cannot say all the different countries.

Song tapescriptListen to me, boys!Listen to me, girls!These are the biggest Countries in the world!

Russia is first,Canada is second,America is third,China is fourth,Brazil is fifth,Australia is sixth,India is seventh,Argentina is eighth,Kazakhstan is ninth,Sudan is tenth.
