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.
