Target Structure:
How many watches do you have? I have 4 watches. How many CDs does he have? He has 5 CDs.
Tips on introducing the target structure:
Before handing out the worksheets, use the flashcards to elicit and check your students’ understanding of the vocabulary and target structures.
After you’ve gone over the vocabulary and target structures, hand out the worksheets. Write all the new words and phrases on the board and have your students copy them down on page 2 and 3.
Pair Work:
(Give Sheet A to one student, and Sheet B to the other.) Have students work in pairs to complete the missing information. They should write how many objects each character has in the blank boxes next to the Xs.
Follow up (Now Work Alone.)
When they are finished the pair work, have your students try the follow-up activity to review their writing skills for this structure.
Listening
For this task you’ll need to call out how many of each object you have. Students should write the number next to each X. To make the activity more student-centered, ask your students to call out the questions.
Student: How many watches do you have? Teacher: I have 3 watches. etc…
