Given: A listening and reading activity based on an action poem.

Step 1 — Listen carefully: Students should listen to the teacher read the poem aloud.

Step 2 — Follow the actions: As the poem is read, students perform the actions — stop, stand, sit, raise hand, jump, run, and stop.

Step 3 — Read aloud: Students then read the poem aloud along with the teacher, matching words to actions.

Key words and actions:

• 'stop' → stand still
• 'stand' → stand up straight
• 'sit' → sit down
• 'raise your hand' → lift one hand up
• 'jump' → jump up
• 'run' → run in place

Final Answer: Students listen, perform the actions, and read the poem aloud with expression and enthusiasm. (This is a participatory activity; all students who listen and participate are correct.)

Step 3 — Colour: Colour the drawing neatly.

Sample ideas:

Given: A list of vehicles — bus, car, aeroplane, train, jeep, ship, boat, bicycle, helicopter, truck, yacht, cart, raft, taxi, tractor.

Concept used: Vehicles are classified into three groups based on the surface they travel on:

• Land vehicles move on roads, tracks, or ground.
• Air vehicles fly through the sky.
• Water vehicles move on rivers, lakes, or seas.

Sorting:

$$\textbf{Land} \quad | \quad \textbf{Air} \quad | \quad \textbf{Water}$$

Final Answer:

• Land: Bus, Car, Train, Jeep, Bicycle, Truck, Cart, Taxi, Tractor
• Air: Aeroplane, Helicopter
• Water: Ship, Boat, Yacht, Raft

Given: Three pictures with words containing the vowel sound 'u'.

Step 1 — Identify the vowel sound: All three words contain the short vowel sound 'u' as in 'hut'.

Step 2 — Read aloud:

• umbrella — um-brel-la (notice 'an' is used before 'umbrella' because it starts with a vowel 'u')
• truck — tr-u-ck
• duck — d-u-ck

Step 3 — Notice the article: The word 'an' is used before 'umbrella' because it begins with a vowel sound. The word 'a' is used before 'truck' and 'duck' because they begin with consonant sounds.

Final Answer: Students read the words aloud clearly — an umbrella, a truck, a duck — focusing on the short 'u' sound in each word.

Given: Three pictures with words containing the vowel sound 'u'.

Step 1 — Identify the vowel sound: All three words contain the short vowel sound 'u' as in 'hut'.

Step 2 — Read aloud:

• jug — j-u-g
• mug — m-u-g
• cup — c-u-p

Step 3 — Notice the pattern: 'jug' and 'mug' rhyme with each other. All three words use the article 'a' because they begin with consonant sounds.
