							| Intoduce some funny characters (e.g. dolls) and present some objects (a book, a pen, etc.). Each object belongs to a particular character, but one of them is very greedy and repeats all the time, "It �s my book, pen, etc." The students should correct him/her (No, it �s his/her/their book, etc.). Good luck! |  3 Apr 2011

							| Ask students to draw pictures of their favourite toy / school object / animal... in secret. They write their name on the other side of the picture. (Alice, Peter...)
 
 Teacher shuffles the pictures and asks a student "Who is this?"
 The student points to one fellow (Adam/Berta) and says:
 "It is his/her ... car. It is Adam �s car."
 Adam/Berta says: Yes, it is my car. / No, it isn �t my car. It is Linda �s car ...
 Linda answers: Yes, it is my car. / No, it isn �t my car. It is Helen �s car. ...
 and so on...
 until the students find the right "owner" of the object.
 
 It can be fun...
 Follow up - ask all students: "Is this Helen �s car? Are these Julia �s cats?...

							| I usually ask my students to close their eyes and I walk around the class, choosing some of their school objects- a pen, diary, rubber etc. Then they guess whose the objects are. It usually works... |  3 Apr 2011

							| I pick a jacket in random and ask somebody to wear it. Normally I choose mine for a very thin student , I try to wear the jacket of a student, a pink one for a boy, a black one for a girl... The dialogue goes like that:  - Is it yours?...  they answer back and we start very small conversations. THEY LAUGH A LOT and that �s the best thing about it (especially when I try to wear their clothes)

							| I always use cartoon characters with kids at the beginning, explaining how to form the phrases. After that I use random pictures of unknow characters and ask them to create a name.  It works really well for me =) |  4 Apr 2011
