Warm-up: We greet each other and start the lesson with Hello again song. We move a lot. We do the STOP/GO activity with the movements: we listen to the song again and mime the word according to the flashcards. We greet Cookie and Benny the snowman. Cookie is asleep. We ask Benny about himself and tell him about ourselves. Benny tells us about his secret word of the day, the word is hidden in Lulu's pouch until the end of the lesson. We sit down in a circle. We talk about our feelings and the weather. We play Elephant's game: we make the trunks and walk around the class, we try to catch the hands and greet each other in the elephant way. We bring our homework and tell others about our pictures. We revise colours, animals, characters, number and body parts. We are awarded by a sticker.

WATOTO: Benny tells us about his friend Ever. We look at Ever's photo and talk about it. We can see him playing with a car. The car is of plastic.

RECYCLING PROJECT: Benny has got a bag full of objects. Some of plastic, some of paper or metal. We talk about the materials and revise them while taking objects out of the bag one-by-one. We change the voice while pronouncing those new words.

Topic: We revise body parts with the help of flashcards. We say One, two, three chants and open our Mini Books. We listen to the Dr. Monkey song and do the worksheet on the page 13: we match the missing body part with animals.

Follow-up: We talk about the worksheet. Benny shows us his secret word of the day. It's.... PHONE! We are awarded by a sheet for our pictionary. We tidy-up and say the chant. We say bye-bye.
