							Hi Folks,
   
Tomorrow I need to teach possessive adjectives to my 10 years old students - beginner level.  
Do you have any funny idea of how to present this subject??? 
  
Thanks in advance,

							May be it can be useful :  At the beginning of the lesson you can collect some materials from children and can ask anyone Whose pencil? The answer will be  �his pencil  � showing the owner. You can practice all the possessive adj like that. |

You can start by holding a pencil and saying "this  is my pencil".Ask them to  hold their pencil, rubber etc and urge them to say the same.Next, take a kid �s pencil and give it to him or her saying "this is your pencil".Ask them to do the same taking their partner �s.After that take a boy �s pencil point to him and say "This is his pencil".Do the same for the girls.Repeat it in chorus and then point to someone �s bag for example and the children say either individually or chorally "This is/It �s his/her bag �. Continue likewise  �this is our classroom/school, this is your desk, this is their book".Meanwhile you can teach them some words eg rubber, ruler , sharpener etc if they haven �t learnt them yet. Have a nice week! Dora

							yes, those ideas are good and well thought out....
   
If you want chaos in your classroom , (and who doesn �t) then do what I did and throw a ball at the kids. When a kid grabs it they say  �mine � and everyone else cried  �theirs / hers  and his �. 
  
I also did  �here / there � in this way.  |
