Lesson
1 What do you know about these animals? Do you know their names? Ask students if they know the names of the animals. They might provide some in Spanish. That’s Ok. Don’t tell them the names in English yet. 2 Listen and write. Then sing. 56 Play the track while students listen. Explain that some of the lyrics are missing. Play the track again and ask them to complete the lyrics with the words they hear. Explain that the first one has been done as an example. Play the track again and ask students to check their answers as they listen. Help students understand that the song is about more than one of each kind of animal. Remind them about irregular plurals and point to the words butterflies, wolves and deer. Ask questions about the song to check students’ comprehension, such as: Which animals are in the north? Where are deer and butterflies? Does just one monkey live in the south? Play the track several times encouraging students to sing along.
