Progress Indicators and Assessment Vocabulary and Expressions Materials Week 3 Lesson 8 Reading Practice Warm up Have a classroom competition. Split the class into two or three groups and confirm they are even. Then, divide the board into two or three sections. Assign each student a number. Say: Number (one), draw a (body part) . The students with the number that you called out have to go to the board and draw what you say. The student who finishes first gets a point for his/her team. Later, you can have another classroom competition by pointing to a body part and asking: What is this? Application Divide the class into three groups. Assign to each of them a line from the song: I wash my hands, I wash my knees, and I wash my legs . Have students use magazines to create collages on a sheet of cardboard for their assigned line. When they are finished, write the sentences on the board and ask students to place the collage under the appropriate expression. All the group has to sing the lines corresponding to its body part. Classroom competitions are highly motivational and teach students how to handle success and disappointment. Teachers have to create a joyful and fair atmosphere for young learners, so they do not feel frustrated when they lose. Explain to them that if they are on the losing team, they can learn from their mistakes and that it is only a game, so there is no reason to react inappropriately: the purpose was to have fun. Teaching Tip After students have learned the rhythm of the song, you can have them include new stanzas, changing the body parts and adding them to the old ones. For example, after singing about hands, knees, and legs, you can ask them to sing about head, neck, feet, etc. Extra Activity Organize the class into two lines in which students face each other. Say: Head to head . Ask students to put their hands on each other’s heads while repeating the sentence head to head two times. Mix up body parts to make the game funnier. Extra Activity Presentation Stand up in front of the class and act out that you are washing your hands. Say: I’mwashing my hands. Continue mimicking and saying the sentence with other body parts. Have volunteers come to the front of the class, say, and act out that they are washing a body part. Ask students what parts of their body they wash every day. Practice Ask students to look at page 15 and explain that the boy is washing his hands. Ask some students to read the speech bubble aloud. Point to the different dotted lines in the illustration, so that students can start tracing them. When they are finished tracing the illustration, ask them to color it. Finally, play the song This Is How a couple of times and have students sing along. Tell them that they are going to sing along as if they were scrubbing the body parts mentioned in the song.
