Everybody had made a description of the place where they live. They read it aloud and I must say their descriptions were
well done.
Yesterday we started a new unit. It's about our family and describing them and other people.
The first questions students had to answer was:
How many people are in your family?
And they had to answer something like this example:
We are four: my mother, my father, my sister and I.
We listened to a boy called Sam talk about his family. He has a
tween sister. His tween sister looks like him, but
she has long hair and
he has short hair. He also has
a baby brother with big ears and a small nose.
We also need to learn how to describe people. We practiced describing people last year. And some students remembered a lot.
We studied some adjectives:
Tall, medium height, short, heavy, medium weight, thin.
Pretty, ugly, handsome, dark, fair.
To talk about hair: long, short, straight, wavy, curly, black, brown, blond or fair, red.
To talk about ears and nose: small, big.
