I talked to them about how to greet in the morning and how they can answer the question “How are you?”. I worked again with the charts I did for kindergarten and they really liked them.

Then I made them watch a video and they did a simple task in relation to that video. The video was about numbers but in relation to animals which was the previous theme. The idea was articulated the previous topic with the actual one. 

I also showed them pictures of different kind of animals with different colors and numbers. For example “three red snakes” and finally they did some course book tasks.

-          I started the lesson with a “Hello song” Now they got more vocabulary to answer the question “How are you today?” They remembered the pictures from the previous class. In my lesson plan I designed a very theoretical activity for the warm up stage but in the end I decided to change it for another activity more like a game. In groups boys and girls found numbers 5 and words five and created a poster they hanged on the class wall. 

-          They also watched a video and sang the song and they worked in groups to create different small posters with different numbers. Some of them had to paint, and others had to cut and paste color papers to create the poster with different numbers. They really liked that activity.

They also learn very useful vocabulary for instance how to greet. I showed them different moods (sad, happy, ungry etc) and the meaning of words such as “silence”, “be quiet”, “listen”, “repeat after me”, “excellent work”, “well done”, “wonderful” etc. 

In addition I also expanded their vocabulary making an interactive and colored poster that they could turn around and point the weather. They had options and draws exemplifying the different weather chances. This activity was very fun for them because it took some time to get an agreement about “What the weather like today” issue.
