							| Hello everybody 
 |  
							| Hello! Could you help me?   I am designing a unit on animals for 9-10 years and I am a bit blocked right now. Could you suggest some interesting ideas?   I haven �t made the division between farm, jungle...animals, I don �t like it. I have covered where they live (sea, land, air), what can they do (swim, jump, fly), adjectives and prepositions of place. I dont know what else to do, what types of activities...? I am completely blocked!! It would be very kind of you if you helped me.    By the way, could you suggest a final project for this unit?       |  19 Apr 2009

							| Hi, You could also show them weird exotic animals... it could rouse their curiosity or it could be their final project..so they would have to do a little research by themselves and then present their "weird" animal to the class. |  19 Apr 2009

							| Hi!   What about using the song  �Old Mc Donald had a farm � as an introduction to your unit? I have tested it with younger children, but I guess that would make an entertaining starter...It �s excellent for spelling and intonation as well. Good luck for your lesson!   |  19 Apr 2009

							| You can also include "have / has got" to describe the animals... |  19 Apr 2009
