Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Read words for family members and relatives, match questions to answers when introducing a family, and understand my, your, his and her (indicator ต 1.1 ป.2/2).

What's in the worksheet

4 questions, matching 4 pairs each - brother to พี่ชายหรือน้องชาย, sister to พี่สาวหรือน้องสาว - grandmother to ย่าหรือยาย, uncle to ลุงหรืออา - Who is this? to This is my mother. and What is his job? to He is a farmer. - his to ของเขาผู้ชาย, her to ของเธอ

How to use it in class

Use before children introduce their own families, about 5 minutes. Play in pairs, then have each pair ask and answer with the Q3 questions straight away. - For relatives, explain that English uses one word, uncle, for ลุง, อา and น้า on the male side - If his and her go badly, point to a boy and say his book, a girl and say her book - Be mindful of children whose families differ; let them talk about whoever they choose - Play it linked to your class so scores go into the gradebook

Common sticking points

- his and her (Q4) are often swapped because Thai ของเขา can mean either - uncle and aunt (Q2): a child who calls a male relative น้า or a female one อา may hesitate, as the game's translations leave those out - How many brothers? (Q3) is not a full sentence; read it as How many brothers do you have?
