Listen to the story and repeat Act (Exercise 1)
Ask children to turn to the story on page 28 of their Student Books
Play the recording (Track 45), pausing for children to repeat
Divide the class into groups of five Each child chooses a different role: Billy, Tim, Rosy, Grandma, or Grandpa If your class doesn’t divide equally into groups of five, children in some groups could have more than one role: Tim doesn’t have a speaking part, so could double up with another character
Ask children to look at the pictures again As a class, decide on the actions for each part of the story (see suggestions below)
Children practice acting out the story Monitor the activity, checking for correct pronunciation
Ask some of the groups to come to the front of the class to act out the story
Story actions

Play the recording (Track 46) all the way through for students to listen
Play the recording again, pausing for students to repeat each line
Draw attention to the grammar box Show children how we make the contracted forms She’s and He’s by writing the words first in the full form (He is) and then in the contracted form (He’s) on the board
Development
Listen and mime
Divide the class so that boys are standing on one side of the room, and girls are standing on the other
Say He’s a teacher The boys mime being a teacher, and the girls do nothing
Say She’s a firefighter The girls mime being a firefighter, and the boys do nothing
Continue, using a variety of pronouns and jobs
Look and say (Exercise 3)
Model the dialogue with a child Put children in pairs Ask one of the pairs to read the example for the class
Describe another picture for the children to say the number
Ask children to work with their partners, taking turns describing the pictures for their partners to guess the number Monitor and help where necessary
Ask different children to describe pictures for the class to say the number
Who’s who?
Ask children to turn back to the story on page 28 of their Student Books
They take turns describing the characters for their partners to guess, e.g., Child 1: He’s a teacher Child 2: Billy!
Concentration game
Give each pair a set of Student picture cards and a set of Phrase cards
Children place all the cards face down on their table, with all the Picture cards on the left and all the Phrase cards on the right
The first child turns over one Picture card and one Phrase card If the two cards match, the child keeps them If they
do not match, he/she must turn the cards back over
The second child then takes a turn
Continue playing until all the cards are gone The winner is the child with the most cards
Write (Exercise 4)
Write the words He and She on the board Point to each word and then to boys and girls in the class as appropriate Then point to children and the class says either He or She If the class isn’t mixed, show children pictures of a boy and
girl and do the same exercise
Use pictures of men and women with the jobs student know Show a picture of a female firefighter and say He or she? Children reply with the correct pronoun Say He’s a firefighter Yes or no? The class responds with No, then corrects the sentence to She’s a firefighter
Ask a child to read the example answer in the Student Book Children write He’s or She’s at the beginning of the other
sentences
Go over the answers Ask children to say the sentences in chorus
Ask individual children to read the sentences aloud to the class

Culture note: Family and work in the United States
In a typical American family, both parents work Some mothers with young children work part-time, but many work full-time A smaller number of mothers and a few fathers stay home with their children full-time
Employers must give women three months’ maternity leave After a woman has or adopts a baby, she can take three months off and then come back to her job The law does not require that women are paid during these three months, but many companies do offer paid maternity leave Many employers give six months maternity leave instead of three It is not required by law, but some companies give men a paternity leave for a few days or a few weeks This is usually unpaid
