Can anyone guess what this unit is about? Students: This unit is about making animals our friends. Teacher: Correct. What does it mean to make animals our friends? Students: It means we treat animals nicely. Teacher: Excellent. Animals are living things that should be treated with respect, care and kindness.

Teacher: Look at the picture for Unit 3. What do you see? Students: A boy holding a cat and a girl petting a dog. Teacher: Right. People often have cats and dogs as pets. People love their pets and take care of them. Does it look like the boy and the girl are nice to their pets? Students: Yes. Teacher: I agree. Now before we get into today's lesson, I'd like to see what you remember from the last unit. Review Review the theme from Unit 2. Teacher: In the last unit we talked about our plants, gardening and agriculture. Why are trees and forests important?/What can you tell me about how a plant grows?/What are three steps for planting a tree seedling?/What role does each part of the flower play(i.e. flower head, stem, leaves, roots)? Ask several students to respond. Teacher: Good work, everyone. KEY CONCEPTS FOCUS STRUCTURES: Her family went on a vacation and she asked me to take care of Zoe. Don't be afraid of me. STEP 1: Present CLASS WORK: Think About It Introduce Lesson 13 and discuss the Think About It questions as a class. Teacher: Now let's look at Lesson 13. Does anyone in our class have any pets? If yes, what kind of pet do you have? What's your pet's name? How old is he or she?/If not, would you like to have a pet? What kind of pet would you like and why? What would you name it? Talk to the students about the pets they have or would like to have. Students: I have a dog. His name is Ralph. He is six years old./I don't have any pets, but I would like to have a bird because they are beautiful. I would name my bird Song. Teacher: Good work. Now who can read the title of Lesson 13? Students: I can, it's "Danny's Big Scare". Teacher: Right. How do you say the word"scare"in Chinese? Students:害怕。 Teacher: Very good. Look at the pictures in this lesson. Can you guess what scares Danny? Students: A cat. A cat scares Danny. Teacher: I think you're right. Let's read and find out. STEP 2: Read INDEPENDENT WORK: Let's Do It! No. I 1)Instruct the students to read Lesson 13 and complete the exercise independently. 2)Students should check their answers in groups. 3)Check and discuss the answers as a class. 4)Show the class some pictures of different pet animals and ask them to write some sentences to describe each one. STEP 3: Explain CLASS WORK: Explain 1)Explain indefinite pronouns. An indefinite pronoun does not refer to any specific person, place or thing. It is very vague and "not definite". Some common indefinite pronouns include: all, another, any, anybody/anyone, anything, each, everybody/ everyone, everything, few, many, nobody, none, one, several, some, somebody/someone. In this unit we will focus on the use of the indefinite pronouns "some"and "any". Define these pronouns for the class and encourage the students to use them in a sentence. indefinite pronoun meaning example any no matter how much or how many Is there any cake left? Are there any people coming? some an unspecified Here is some paper. Some people have arrived. quantity of something; an unspecified number of people or things 2) Differentiate between regular pronouns and indefinite pronouns. A definite pronoun or just pronoun refers to something or someone specific. They include: personal pronouns (I, you, he, she, it), demonstrative pronouns (this, that, these, those), possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers)and more. STEP 4: Role-Play PAIR WORK: Role-play the lesson 1)Instruct the students to role-play the lesson with a partner. 2)If time allows, select some pairs to present their role-play in front of the class. STEP 5: Discuss GROUP WORK: Discussion and Let's Do It! No. 3 1)Divide the class into groups to discuss why people have pets and complete the exercise. 2)Check and discuss the answers as a class. Write a list of reasons on the board. STEP 6: Task GROUP WORK: Let's Do It! No. 4 1)Instruct the students to work in groups and interview their group members about pets. 2)Each student should write out their own survey where they can record their group members' responses. 3)Ask each group to share their completed surveys with the class. CLASS CLOSING 1)Complete Let's Do It! No. 2. Students do the exercise independently. Then check and correct their answers in groups. 2)Assign homework: My Pet: Bring a photo or draw a picture of your pet or the pet you would like to have. Write a short passage about your pet and consider the following questions: o What kind of animal is your pet? o What's his or her name? o Is this your first pet? o When did you get your pet? o Where did you get your pet? o Who takes care of your pet the most? o What makes your pet happy/sad? o Do you like having a pet? Why or why not? EXTENSION PAIR WORK: Draw Me Play Draw Me to review vocabulary for describing appearances. 1)Each student writes a description for a pet. The description should make use of the words "some" and "any". Write a list of characteristics you want the students to cover on the board. The list could include questions such as: What animal is it? How old is he/she? How big/small is he/she? Is he/she fat or thin? What colour is he/she? Does he/she have fur/feathers/hair? How many legs does he/she have? 2)Each student draws a picture to match his or her written description. 3)Each student then trades his or her written description (but not the picture)with a partner. 4)Each student then tries to draw his or her partner's character from the written description. Does it match what his or her partner drew? ** See the "Games"section at the back of this guide for further instructions on how to play. LANGUAGE NOTES 1.
