Vocabulary pg 32, ex 1 & 2 Ex. 1 - Do it without the CD (red, blue, yellow, green, black, white, grey, brown, orange) - write the vowels on the board, then have them fill in the missing vowels in the HO, as I say each color. - check pronunciations, specifically ORANGE, white and grey - drill any colors that need it. - Write and show stress of 'orange' as needed. Ex. 2 - (pic of 'tartans' in presentation) - Write the 4 Scottish names on a piece of paper, then listen to the description, and write 1-4 beside each name. Check with your partner! Now, look at this tartan: work with your partner to describe it! Use words like stripes, up, down, across... ICQ: What are you going to do? What kinds of words will you use to describe the tartan?

Is a clan a small family? Can you tell me the name of a city in Scotland? Eliciting Edinburgh, Glasgow and Dundee?
