INFORMATION FOR TEACHERS:

•          A possessive adjective is a word that shows ownership or belongingness. Examples: my, your, our, its, his, her, and their. •          Develop a habit in the students to use the word forms: belong, belongs, own, owns.

INTRODUCTION:

•          Ask the class to get ready for a game. Listen and do what I say.           Show both your thumbs up.           Raise your right hand.           Put your hand down.           Show me your pencil.           Take out your English book. •          Clap for the class for following the instructions carefully. •          Then explain: I used ‘your’ in all sentences. •          The word ‘your’ shows that you have something. •          We can also say something belongs to you or something is your possession. •          Your hands, thumbs, pencil, book all belong to you. They are your possessions.

Development

ACTIVITY 1

•          Show your pencil to the class and ask: Whose pencil? (your pencil) •          Help them understand the question and answer it. •          Write it on the board in a box. •          Show it again and say: Oh! my pencil. •          Write it on the board in the same box. •          Take a pencil from a girl and ask the class: Whose pencil? (her pencil) •          Help the students answer correctly and write on the board. •          Remind, we use ‘her’ for girls. •          Take a pencil from a boy and ask the class: Whose pencil? (his pencil) •          Help the students answer correctly and write on the board. •          Remind, we use ‘his’ for boys. •          Ask all the students to show your pencils then ask: Which possession word will we use for all these pencils? •          Appreciate, if you get the right answer. Then explain: We use ‘our’ to show the possession of all your pencils. We will say ‘our pencil’. •          Write on the board. •          So, we are telling that something (pencil) belongs to someone (person). We also call them possessive adjectives. •          We have learnt 5 words showing possessions: your, my, her, his and our. Note: Make this on a chart paper and display in the classroom.
