the moon.)
1. Read and Chant
• Read the chant to the class. Pupils then read the chant silently, underlining the written

forms of the numbers. (one, two, three)
Ask pupils who me refers to in the chant. (Mr. Moon)
Ask: Who is Mr. Moon talking to when he says Come to me? (Henry and Lucy)
Ask pupils how Henry and Lucy will get to the moon, reminding them of their predictions in
the previous lesson. Tell them that moonbeams will magically take Lucy and Henry to Mr.
Moon. Remind pupils that the story is a fantasy and magical.
2a. Read
• Ask pupils what they see in the sky. Place the picture and word cards for cloud and stars
•
•
on the board.
Ask pupils to imagine what they would see if they were on the moon looking down at the
Earth. Place the word and picture cards of Earth, house, farm, tree, cow, and sheep on
the board. Have pupils repeat each word a few times in a sentence: I see…the Earth, a
house, a farm, a tree, a cow, a sheep.
Practice the singular and plural forms of house, farm, tree, and cow by saying: I see one
(cow), I see (cows). Write the plural form of each word next to it. Explain that in English
the plural is formed by usually adding the letter s to the singular word. Repeat for all other
words, saving sheep for last.
