animals (bloque III)

It´s a song about animals, that it can be used to teach vocabulary and also to learn some features of those animals. It can be used as a pre-listening if you tell them a story with same of those animals or if you prefer, it can be used alone, just as a song, asking them to imitate the animals and then working a short role-play. Those are only some of the multiple options that we have to work with the song.

being creative

Write several sentences describing these fruits and then write a simple story, being the fruits the main characteres.

amazing animals (group activity)

There are some amazing animals around the world that we don´t know that they exist, so I think it is a good idea to find some information about those animals to create a common project in which you should include simple sentences (using the verb to have got) describing an amazing animal.


If you follow these steps, it will be easier:

• Have a look to this web-page to find some information:http://kids.nationalgeographic.com/Animals/


• Read the information about the animals that you find more interesting.


• Write a short summary using simple sentences: present simple and the verb to have got


• Give your opinion about this animal.


• Finally you can insert a picture of the animal (optional)
• Don´t forget to anwer the quiestions about the zebra. Please make sure your sentences have a correct structure.

Here you have a zebra:

Can you describe the zebra?

Do you think the zebra is an amazing animal? why?

Good luck!

Happy St. Patrick´s day!

St Patrick is known as the patron saint of Ireland. True, he was not a born Irish. But he has become an integral part of the Irish heritage, mostly through his service across Ireland of the 5th century.

In Ireland, it is a religious holiday similar to Christmas and Easter. With grand parades, community feasts, charity show, the mass, St Patrick's Day is celebrated in Ireland. The parades, shamrocks, and green beer are provided primarily for tourists. In fact, it has turned out to be one of the most celebrated events in Ireland and a major tourist attraction.

Listening exercises

"Listening" is one of the skills we must practice a lot. To practice it, we can watch movies in the original version, listen to music or listen for specific information in different exercises.
