Test on pets and "to have got"


Hello everybody!
This is one more test for the 5th grade. It's about pets and the use of "to have got". I hope it's useful.

Activity - Animals


This is how the blackboard of my 4th grade class looked like yesterday.
I've made a kind of a guessing game with my students. I just wrote these sentences and asked them to copy. They had to complete the sentences as they wished, without knowing the meaning of what was written there.
After they've finished, we had a blast with some of the sentences. "The rabbit flies", "The snake is sweet" etc.
Students knew that this was the purpose of the activity. Having some fun.
At the end I explained the meaning of the sentences ad they wrote the words in the correct places.

Activity - My favourite pet

I've used this activity with all my classes and it worked really well!
First you must have flashcards (A4 if possible) and quite a lot of adhesive gum.
Then you ask the students to take a pencil or a pen cap (the lighter the better).
You ask them individually, "What's your favourite animal?" They will answer your question and then mark the animal with their pencil.
When all class has finished marking the animals, you can explore the results.

  • Which one is the champion?
  • How many students voted for the snake?
  • How many votes did the dog get?
  • Which is the animal with zero votes?
  • ... and a whole lot more of questions....

Pets - Worksheet


Here you have one more worksheet.
This one was used with my 1st grade students.
If you want to use it with elder students, you can erase the name of the animals and ask them to write them down.
I used this worksheet as the last task of a lesson dedicated to pets. During all the lesson we explored the vocabulary, played some games and talked about the class' favourite pets.
