Let's start by learning some vocabulary for family members.

These words will help you talk about your family.


Exercise:
Look at the pictures and match them with the correct family member.

Here’s a simple family tree. It shows how family members are related to each other. Let's go through it together.

Exercise:
Identify who is who in the family tree.

For example
◦ John is Mary's father.
◦ Who is Mary's aunt?

Now, let's learn how to use possessive adjectives to talk about who owns or belongs to something.

Possessive adjectives show that something belongs to someone.

I → My
This is my brother.

You → Your
Is that your sister?

He → His
His father is tall.

She → Her
Her mother is kind.

We → Our
Our family is big.

They → Their
Their house is nice.

Exercise:
Fill in the blanks with the correct possessive adjective.

Examples:
1. This is ___ (my) father.
2. Is that ___ (your) brother?
3. ___ (Their) house is big.

Now, let's practice describing our families.

You can use the vocabulary and possessive adjectives we just learned.

◦ My family is small/big.
◦ I have two brothers and one sister.
◦ His mother is a teacher.
◦ Their grandparents live in the countryside.

Exercise:
Write three sentences about your family.
Use possessive adjectives and family vocabulary.

Examples:
◦ My sister is a student.
◦ We live with our parents.
◦ Her cousin is very funny.

Next, let's talk about friends.

Here are some words you can use to describe your friends.

◦ Best friend
◦ Classmate
◦ Neighbor
◦ Colleague
◦ Friend

Exercise:
Write a sentence about your best friend using one of these words.

Example:

Now that we know how to talk about family and friends, let's put it all together.

We'll describe our relationships with these people.

◦ Sarah is my best friend.
◦ John is my classmate.
◦ My brother is younger than me.
◦ Their parents are very nice.

Exercise:
Describe your relationship with one family member and one friend.

Let's practice having conversations about our families and friends.

1. This is ___ uncle.
2. ___ cousin is very funny.
3. ___ parents live in London.
4. John is my ___ .

Great job today! For homework, write a short paragraph about your family.
