Use the flashcards to ask about colors: What color is this cat?
Students: It’s orange! (make a color splotch next to the cat)

Let’s count the pets on the board: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Eight pets!!
Ask more questions: What’s number three?
Students: it’s a rabbit!

Make a grid on the board. Say a number and letter combination for a student and have that person say what it is.

Use adjectives to help students describe the pets. Here is an example with a cat labeling to the parts of the body.

labeling to the parts of the body.

Students will talk about possession: Who has a rabbit?
Students: Ann!
Model sentences to express possession: Bob has a fish.

Students will contrast and compare the physical appearance of the pets. Review the parts of body words if you have already taught that unit. You can choose the ears. Model sentences: The brown rabbit has long ears.
