Term 1 review: sounds and a climate poster

Connect Primary 5 Term 1, Review 2 and Project: pp. 102–109
GoalReview the sounds of Term 1 and make a poster about climate change in Egypt.
New words
climate change · the Earth’s weather slowly changingpollution · dirty air, water or landsolution · a way to solve a problemsave · to use less of somethingscr / str / thr · three letters together at the start of a word
Explanation

First, the sounds. Three letters can come together: scr in scream, str in street, thr in three. The ow in cow, the igh in night and the oy in boy have their own sounds. P and b are different: pin and bin. Some letters are silent: knife, climb, hour. Now the poster. Climate change means the Earth is slowly getting warmer. Burning petrol and coal makes gases that keep heat near the Earth. This can make summers hotter and the water in rivers lower. But we can help, and a poster can show the causes and the solutions.

Worked examples
Listen and say the words.
Yara

Our poster is about climate change in Egypt.

Adel

Let us write the cause first. Cars and factories make pollution.

Yara

Now the solutions. We can save water and plant trees.

Adel

And we can walk to school! That is a good idea.

Listen. Yara and Adel plan a climate poster.

The Earth is getting warmer. This is climate change. In Egypt, summers can be hotter, and farmers need more water. The sea is slowly rising, and this can affect low land near the coast. But we can all help. Switch off lights, save water, plant a tree and walk when you can. Small actions are important when many people do them.

Read and listen to the text for the poster.
Now you. Say one cause and two solutions for your poster.
Class activity
