Preparation
Make one copy of p3 for the class, and a copy of the pictures for each group. Alternatively, bring in magazines for the children to cut up.
Steps
1. Ask the children for the names of different types of shops, by asking: Where can you buy shoes? Where can you buy meat? 2. Choose five or six of the shops on p3, cut them out and stick them up around the room. 3. Talk about the things you can buy in each shop, eliciting as much as possible from the children. Encourage them to use a sentence like: You can buy chicken at a butchers. 4. Put the children in groups, one group for each shop. Give out the materials and explain that they are going to fill the shops with goods. Show them how to draw and cut out pictures of items that can go in the shop. Alternatively give them magazines to cut up or hand out ready cut photocopied pictures.* 5. Let the children stick their pictures under the relevant shop names. If they use sticky tack, the pictures can be removed for other activities.
* They can also write the words on pieces of paper and stick them by the pictures.
Extension (a) Going shopping
Preparation (after step 4 above)
Practise the sentences children will need: Examples Id like some __________ . Have you got any __________ ? How much is / are __________? Im sorry, we havent got any __________ .
You can either use the price lists provided on pp 5-6, put prices on the pictures, write price lists before the activity, or ask the children to do this. During the activity they can use real money or toy money.
The children can work in small groups of about four and take turns at being shopkeepers and customers. Filling up the shop 2009 www.teachitworld.com 11775 Page 2 of 6 This resource has been adapted from Jamboree (Nelson, 1992) by kind permission of the authors, John Palim and Paul Power
Extension (b) Planning a party
Steps 1. Tell the children they are going to plan a surprise party for their best friend. In pairs get them to write a list of people they would like to invite, and a shopping list for the party including items like food, drink, balloons, presents. 2. Choose three different shops from the first activity and ask three or four children to be shopkeepers in each shop. The other children now visit the shops in pairs and buy the things they need. 3. At the end of the lesson ask some of the children to tell the class what they have bought, and what they didnt manage to find.
Note: You can ask older children to make a note of how much their shopping cost in the two extension activities, if they are confident with numbers and adding up.
