listening. Write on the board: man woman boy girl. Point
to people in the pictures in the family tree and ask Is she
a woman? Is he a boy? Students can answer yes or no.
After students listen twice, ask Howmany syllables are in
each word? Say each word again and have students say
the number of syllables.
Write the words on the board and drawdots above
each syllable (see page 16 of the Students Book for an
example). Drawa larger dot above the rst syllable of
all the multi-syllabic words. Say The rst syllable has
more stress; for example, GRANDmother GRANDfather
MOTHer FATHer.
Have students chorally practice each word with the
proper stress.
To check comprehension, ask Is a grandson a boy or girl?
(A boy.) Is a daughter a boy or a girl? (A girl.) Is a brother a
boy or girl? (A boy.) Is a grandmother a man or a woman?
(A woman.) Is a husband a man or a woman? (A man.) Is
a wife a man or a woman? (A woman.) Is a grandfather

girl.) Is a father a man or a woman? (A man.) Is a son a
boy or a girl? (A boy) Is a mother a man or a woman? (A
woman.) Is a granddaughter a boy or a girl? (A girl.)
Option: [+5 minutes] To reviewsubject pronouns and
the verb be, have students work in pairs to say or
write sentences about the people in the pictures; for
example, Shes a grandmother. Hes a grandfather. Theyre
grandparents.
Language and culture
In spoken informal English, these words are often
used, especially within a family: (grandmother) Grandma;
(grandfather) Grandpa, Granddad; (mother) Mom, Ma,
Mommy (by young children); (father) Dad, Daddy (by
young children). In informal English, many people use the
expressions my baby sister or my baby brother for a younger
sister or brother and my big sister or my big brother for an
older sister or brother.
In British English, Mum or Mummy (by young children) are
often used for mother and Dad is often used for father.

Your actual
teaching time:

minutes
Model the activity. Point to the mother on the family tree
and then point to the daughter. Say She is her daughter.
Point to the grandmother and then point to the
daughter. Say She is her granddaughter. Say the following
sentences and have students point to the pictures of the
people in the relationship.
Shes his sister.
Hes her brother.
Shes their granddaughter.
Hes her husband.
Theyre their children.
FYI: Some students may struggle with a feminine
possessive adjective before a masculine word (for
example, his sister) or a masculine possessive adjective
before a feminine word (for example, her brother). In
English, the possessive adjective is determined by the
possessor (she or he), not the person possessed. To clarify
this point for students, point to the picture of the mother
[5] and say her and then point to the picture of the son [9]
and say son. Repeat with a few other combinations (his
wife, his daughter, her brother, his sister, his granddaughter,
her father, his mother).
Move around the roomas students are talking and make
sure they are using the subject pronouns and possessive
adjectives correctly.

You may want students to listen again to reviewthe

Option: [+5 minutes] For a challenge, give students a
dictation. Say each sentence fromthe audio twice. Ask
students to write the sentence. To reviewanswers, ask
various students to write one sentence on the board.
Correct any mistakes. Then ask students to repeat each

Direct attention to the Grammar box.
Call on individual students to read the questions and
answers to the class. Make sure they pronounce the
contractions correctly.
Write the following on the board:
1. is she? Shes my sister.
2. is her name? Her name is Jane.
3. are they? Theyre 16 and 17.
Point to each blank and ask What, Who, or Howold?
(1. Who, 2. What, 3. How old)
Point out that the question words and verbs, Howold is
and Howold are, cannot be contracted.
Language and culture
In English-speaking cultures, it can be rude to ask adults
their age directly.
The question How old is she? may be answered She is
twenty years old, She is twenty, or Twenty; all are correct
answers.
In rapid speech (but not in writing), the adjective old and
the verb be are often contracted when used with nouns
and proper nouns in the question How old is . . . ?; for
example, How olds your sister? In writing, use the full form.
