Today, we will explore new words and how to use them in sentences. Vocabulary is important because it helps us express our thoughts and understand what others say. We will read a short story together and identify new words. As we read, I will ask you to listen carefully and think about what the words mean.
Let's look at the sentence: 'The cat is on the mat.' We can break it down: 'The' is a determiner, 'cat' is a noun, 'is' is a verb, and 'on the mat' is a prepositional phrase. Now, let's try to create our own sentence using the words 'dog', 'run', and 'park'. Who can help me put these words together?
In groups, you will receive a set of picture cards and word cards. Your task is to match the pictures with the correct words. For example, if you have a picture of a 'tree', you should find the word 'tree' and place it next to the picture. After matching, we will share our matches with the class and discuss why we chose those words.
Now it's your turn to write! Using the words we learned today, write three sentences in your exercise books. Remember to start each sentence with a capital letter and end with a full stop. After you finish writing, draw a picture that represents one of your sentences. We will share our sentences and pictures with the class.
