Ask children What did you hear? Elicit as many
of the sounds as possible.
Tell the class that you are going to play the CD
again. Ask them to look at the picture again. Tell
them to listen and tick the things which they
hear in the Classbook. Show children the boxes
where they should put their ticks.
Play the listening again. Pause after each sound
to give children time to find the object and tick
the correct box. When you have finished, ask
children to compare their work with a friend’s.
Play the listening once more. Pause after each
sound and ask What can you hear? Children
should suggest the following: thunder, the sea, a
drum, a radio, a telephone, bees, a dog, birds, a
car, a ball. As children suggest each item, ask
them to point to the item in their Classbooks.
Task Three (5 minutes)
Hold up your Classbook and point to the
‘thunder’ and lightning on page 26. Tell the class
you are going to play them a rhyme about
thunder. Remind the class that they learnt this
song in 2A.
Play I Hear Thunder (Song CD 3.3) and perform
the actions as you join in with the words. Ask
children to listen and watch.
The actions for the rhyme are as follows:
• I hear thunder,
I hear thunder,
put your hand to your ear
Oh, can you?
Oh, can you?
point to a child
• Pitter-patter raindrops,
Pitter-patter raindrops,
make falling rain movements with your fingers
• I'm wet through,
pretend to be wet and shake your body
• You are too!
point to someone else
Play the rhyme again. Encourage children to join
in with the words and actions with you.
Task Four (10 minutes)
Ask children to look at activity 3 on page 16 of
their Skills Books. Write on the board the three
sounds ‘ph’ : ‘f’ : ‘gh’. Explain to children that all
these letters make one sound \f\. Now get
children to read the words in each box. Raise
childrens’ awareness of spelling by getting
children to look at individual words. Say Look at
the word ‘elephant’. Give children time to look
at the word, then say, Cover up the word and
say the spelling of ‘elephant’. Do the same with
the other words. When children are confident,
ask them to close their books, and to spell out
the different words. You may also make this into
a game where partners ask each other the
spellings of the words.
Ask children to open their books again at page
16. Ask children to look at activity 4. Explain to
children what they have to do. Children have to
complete the sentences using the pictures and
the words in the box.

Task Two (5 minutes)
Step one
Say Let’s use our ears to hear. Close your eyes.
Sshhh! Be very quiet. Now listen. What can you
hear? Encourage children to name any sounds
they recognise inside or outside the classroom.
Allow them to respond in L1 and English.
Ask children to look at the top of page 27 of
their Classbooks. Hold up your Classbook and
point to the four pictures. Point to each one in
turn and ask What is it? Children know each of
these items of vocabulary. As you elicit the
name of each object, point to the sentence
under each picture and get the class to read it
with you.
Step two
Tell the class they will hear the sounds of these
four objects on the CD. Ask them to listen and
say which picture shows that object.
Play Listening CD 3.4. Pause after each sound
and ask children What picture? Elicit the picture
number for each of the sounds.
Call out the number of one of the pictures and
ask the class to tell you what the object is.
Repeat this until the children have named all the
objects again.
Step three
Organise the class into pairs. Tell children to
take it in turns saying a number and identifying
the object in that picture. For example, one
child says 3, the other child finds picture 3 and
names the object – a drum. Give children
enough time so that each child has the
opportunity to name each of the objects.
Finally ask the children to track and read out
each of the sentences.
Listening Transcript 3.4 [Track 21]
Sounds
a drum beating
a radio playing
a telephone ringing
a ball bouncing
Task Three (5 minutes)
Ask children to look at the sentences at the
bottom of page 27 of their Classbooks. Build the
first sentence on the board using the word cards
I can hear a dog. Tell children to look at the
sentence and then read it off the board with
you. Remove the word dog.
Ask the class to look at the next sentence and
to read it aloud with you. Put the word duck in
the sentence on the board, and get children to
read the sentence with you. Repeat this
procedure with the rest of the sentences on
page 27.
Ask children to look at the numbered pictures
to the right of the sentences. Ask children to
read each sentence silently, and to match it to
the picture by writing the correct number of the
picture in the box beside the sentences.
Do a whole class check. Point to the first
sentence, and ask for a volunteer to read the
sentence and say what picture it matches.
Repeat this procedure until you have checked all
the sentences.
Tell the class they will hear some of these
sounds on the CD. They should listen and say
what the sound is. Play Listening CD 3.5. Pause
after each sound and get children to name it.
Ask children to tell you what sounds they heard
by reading back the sentences they ticked in
their book. Build the sentences on the board as
the class tells you what they heard.
Task Four (10 minutes)
Tell the class they are going to do an
experiment in pairs. Make sure every child has a
pencil, a ruler, a rubber, and their Classbook on
their desk. Hold up each of these objects in turn
and ask What is it? Elicit the names of these
classroom objects.

80 Unit 3
Five Senses
Demonstrate to the class what you want them
to do. Children should put a Classbook between
themselves to prevent their partners from
seeing what they are dropping. Pick up one of
the objects without the class seeing it, and drop
it on the table (behind the book). Ask Did you
hear that sound? What is it? See if they can
guess what object you dropped. Do the same
with the other objects. Repeat some so that
children cannot guess by elimination.
Ask children to look at the picture and chart at
the top of page 28 of their Classbooks. Hold up
your Classbook and point to the picture of Maha
and Sami. Explain that they are doing the
experiment which you just did.
Now ask children to do the experiment in pairs.
However ask children to choose the objects
from the chart randomly, not in order. One
child drops an object, while their partner has to
say what he/ she heard. For example, if a ruler
was dropped and If the partner guesses
correctly, he/she puts a tick on the chart. If they
guessed incorrectly, they should draw a cross on
the chart.
When the child has dropped all the objects,
their partner should do the same experiment
and complete the chart in the same way. When
children have finished, get them to compare
their charts.
Do a class feedback. Try and find out which
objects children found most difficult to identify.
Task Five (5 minutes)
Ask children to open their Skills Books at page
17. Ask children to look at the letter square in
activity 1 and to read the names of the objects
in the letter square. Ask children What is
number 3? Elicit a telephone. Do the same for
all the objects. Get children to tell you what
they have to do. An example is given to help
them understand. Children have to find the
names of the objects in the letter square and
circle them.
Ask children to look at activity 2. Explain to
children how the activity works and what they
have to do. Children have to complete the
missing blanks in the sentences. If time is short,
ask them to complete this activity for
homework.
For the next lesson
In Lesson 8, children will be doing an
experiment concerned with touch. This
experiment requires resources which cannot be
provided in the CRP for very practical reasons.
For the ‘touch’ experiment, you will need to
collect a small selection of items that have these
properties: soft, hard, smooth, rough. For
example, a rock, a piece of sandpaper, a glass, a
pebble, cotton wool, a tomato, a peach, a ball.

Children will:
• listen to and join in with a rhyme
• revise the names of shapes
• draw and guess shapes using the sense of
touch
• understand the meanings of hard, soft, rough,
smooth
• categorise objects according to how they feel
You will need:
• Word cards: 7-10, 155, 156, 159 (a circle,
a triangle, a rectangle, a square. I, can, feel)
• Realia: soft, hard, smooth and rough items
for the 'touch' experiment, for example, a

turn and try to elicit the name of the shape.
Point to each shape again, elicit the name from
the class and then write the name of the shape
inside it or stick a word card on it.
Draw a simple teddy bear on the board.
Tell the class that you are going to play The
Shape Rhyme. Ask children to listen to the
rhyme and watch you. (You should be sitting
down when you start the CD). Play The Shape
Rhyme (Song CD 3.4). Say the words and do the
actions. Point to the picture of the teddy bear
on the board.
Play the rhyme again. Ask children to listen and
do the actions with you. They should point to
the pictures as they chant the rhyme.
Play the rhyme once more. Ask children to join
in with the actions and words.
Tell the class that you will play the rhyme again.
Ask children to say the rhyme and point to
each part of it in their book.
Task Two (10 minutes)
Ask children to draw a circle in the air.
Demonstrate this yourself and then get children
to do the same. Get children to draw all four
shapes in the air.
Tell children to look at the top of page 29 of
their Classbooks. Ask children to look at the
pictures and see if they can guess what Sami
and Maha are doing.
Explain that Sami and Maha are drawing shapes
on a friend’s back. Their friends have to try and
guess what shape it is.

child’s back, so that the rest of the class can see
what you are doing. Encourage the child to say I
can feel a ...[circle].
Put the following word cards on the board: I can
feel a.
Draw a …[circle] at the end of the sentence
you have written (draw the same shape which
you have just drawn on the child’s back). Run
your finger along the words as you say I can feel
a … and then point to the shape you have
drawn. Elicit …[circle] from the class. Say I can
feel a circle as you run your finger along the
words. Get the class to repeat this with you,
again running your finger along the words. Rub
out the shape you have drawn, but leave the
rest of the sentence.
Ask children to draw the four shapes in the
boxes under the pictures on page 29. They
should not however show their drawings to
their partners. They should then take turns and
draw the shapes, in the order they have drawn
them on their chart, on their partner’s backs.
Their partner should say the shape they feel
each time, using I can feel a …[circle]. They
should complete the sentences by drawing the
shape they felt in the box at the end of each
sentence, below the chart. They should then
compare what was drawn with what was felt.
The children then switch roles and repeat the
experiment again.
Task Three (5 minutes)
Hold up some cotton wool and a rock or
pebble. Ask children to tell you in, L1, what they
feel like – hard or soft. Hold up the cotton
wool, squash it in your hand and say It feels soft.
Now hold up a small rock or pebble, bang it
gently on the desk, and say It feels hard. Hold
up the cotton wool and rock or pebble in turn
and get children to repeat It feels soft/hard with
you. Pass the cotton wool around a few children
and get them to feel it. Ask What does it feel
like? Encourage children to say It feels soft.
Repeat this procedure with the rock or pebble
and get children to say It feels hard.
Ask children if they can think of any other things
which are hard or soft. Allow children to name
them in L1 if they don’t know the names in

English. Ask children to look around the
classroom and see if they can find things that are
hard or soft. You may want to give them
suggestions such as: rubbers, chairs, bags,
curtains, etc. Draw a chart on the board with
four columns, and write the words hard and soft
in the first two columns. Point to each word and
get the class to repeat it with you. As children
give you their suggestions for hard and soft
things, write them on the board.
Hold up two items that demonstrate the
properties smooth and rough. Hold up the
smooth item, for example, a pebble, and run
your hand over it. Show that you are feeling its
texture. Say It feels smooth. Now hold up the
rough item, for example sandpaper, run your
hand over it and say It feels rough. Hold up
each item in turn and get children to repeat its
name with you. Pass the pebble around a few
children and get them to feel it. Ask What does
it feel like? Encourage children to say It feels
smooth. Repeat this procedure with the
sandpaper and get children to say It feels rough.
Write the words rough and smooth in the chart
you have drawn on the board and get the
children to repeat the words with you.
Ask children if they can think of any other things
which are rough or smooth. Allow children to
name them in L1 if they don’t know the names
in English. As children suggest things, write them
on the board in the appropriate columns
Task Four (5 minutes)
Ask children to look at the chart at the bottom
of page 29 of their Classbooks. Give children a
minute to study the chart. While children are
looking at the chart, quickly draw a copy of the
chart on the board.
Hold up your Classbook and point to the first
item on the chart – a rock. Say A rock is hard
and smooth. Show that there is a tick in the
hard column, and a tick in the smooth column.
Put these ticks onto the chart on the board.
Tell children to look at the next object – cotton
wool. Ask the class Does it feel hard or soft?
Try and elicit soft from the class, and as you do,
put a tick in the soft column on the board. Then
ask Does it feel rough or smooth? Elicit smooth
and again put a tick on the chart in the smooth
column.
Now ask children to complete the chart for the
rest of the objects. When children have finished,
ask them to compare their chart with a friend’s.
Do a whole class feedback using the chart on
the board. Ask the class questions about each of
the objects Does it feel hard or soft? and Does
it feel rough or smooth?
Task Five (5 minutes)
Ask children to open their Skills Books at page
18. Ask children to look at the chart in activity 3
and to read out the four words at the top.
Now ask children to read out the names of the
objects surrounding the chart. Ask children if
they know what they have to do. They have to
decide whether the objects are hard, soft, rough
or smooth. Some words may fall into two
categories. For example, a scarf can be soft as
well as smooth. Accept any reasonable answers.
For the next lesson
In Lesson 9, children will be doing an
experiment concerned with smell. This
experiment requires resources which cannot be
provided in the Class Resource Packs for very
practical reasons.
For the ‘smell’ experiment, you will need to
collect some different types of foods with
different smells. For example, a banana, an
onion, coffee, an orange, a lemon, an apple. In
addition, you will need blindfolds - enough for
one for each pair of students, and a number of
plastic cups, tissues and elastic bands.

Task Two (20 minutes)
Say the line My nose can smell. Tell children to
look at the picture of Sami and Maha at the top
of page 30 of their Classbooks. Ask children if
they can guess what Sami and Maha are doing. If
they can’t guess, tell them that Sami and Maha
are trying to guess what’s in the cup from its
smell. Tell children that they are going to do the
same thing in class.
Show children the food you have brought into
the lesson. If they are foods whose names
children already know, elicit them from the class.
If not, teach the class the names in English.
Put a small amount of one of the foods you
have selected in a cup, cover it with a paper
tissue and secure the tissue with an elastic band.
Then smell the cup, and say It smells like a
...[banana]. Get the class to repeat this several
times. Pass the cup to five or six children, and
encourage them to say It smells like a ...[banana].
Now put a small amount of each of the foods
you have selected into four different cups, cover
the cups with paper tissues and secure the
tissues with elastic bands. Number the cups 1–4,
but do not let the children see which food is in
which cup. Depending on the size of your class
you may want to have four or five sets of cups,
which you will have to prepare at the same
time.
Organise children into pairs. Tell children to
look at the chart on page 30 of their Classbooks.
Quickly draw a copy of the chart on the board,
and point to the first empty space in the first
column. Tell children that they must write the
name of their partner in this space and
underneath they should write their own name.
Explain that children will have to take it in turns,
in their pairs, to guess the contents of the cups
by smell alone.
Bring a pair of children to the front of the class,
and put a blindfold on one of the children. Give
cup number 1 to the child who has the blindfold
on, and ask them to smell what is in the cup.
Encourage them to say It smells like a

under the number 1. Tell children that they will
do this in their pairs for all four cups.
Distribute the cups on four or five tables around
the room. Give each pair of children a blindfold.
Ask the children to work together in their pairs,
with one cup at a time, to guess the contents of
the cup by smell alone. One child puts the
blindfold on first, and tries to guess the contents
of all four cups, while the other child records
their answers onto the chart on page 30 by
drawing a picture of what they say in each
column. They should then swap roles. Remind
them to say It smells like an …[orange].
Do a whole class feedback using the chart on
