Help the hamsters
The hamster called Never has got a very naughty son. His name is Never Junior. Look at him. He is in picture below. It seems that someone is very untidy…
By the way, are YOU sometimes naughty? Why yes? Why no? Never Jr. usually, every day, always, often does very naughty things and disappoints his parents. But we’ve got a magic hat and a magic wand, haven’t we? So, let’s help Never Jr. behave better! For this you should read everything that this hamster does (from the list below) only adding his magic (!) name to it and remembering how to plant flowers. For example: He NEVER teases a friend. You should try to be very convincing and serious while doing this magic or it won’t work! Now, let’s start!
Tease a friend
Stick out his tongue
Make a mess in his room
Break a chair
Eat only sweets the whole day
Come home in messy dirty clothes
Get to di
Go outside without his parents’ knowing it
Walk in dangerous places
Meet a big bad wolf and talk to him in a friendly way
Brilliant! Good job! Thank you!
HamFish
All the hamsters that come to GrammArea are asked to make up any magical creature, draw it and describe its habits. Then they use magic to make this creature alive!
Homiq and Hammy also have some ideas about it. Homiq is here to tell us.
We’re glad to present to your attention the wonderful HAMFISH! (You can see it in the picture above). He lives in all waters, especially in the Hamster Sea, which is in Hamsterran Area of GrammArea. He needs water, fish, chips and burgers! He uses underwater stones, sand and plants or even shells to build his house. A she-hamfish has babies from 5 to 12 centimeters long. Babies can have different names: Flyer, Swimmer, Hammy, Lucky, Cheeker, Waterhom, Eater, Racer, Whiskers. An average hamfish has got whiskers from 10 to 20 centimeters long. It is a very clever animal. It walks on the ground easily.
Why do you think this creature is called Hamfish? Now to make our Hamfish alive we should find all the examples of Present Simple in the text above. For example: He lives… Let’s help Hamfish live happily in GrammArea!
Great! Dear friend, now it’s time for your magic creature! Don’t be shy and draw it, but please, don’t show it to anyone yet!
Play! Let your friends guess what your magic creature looks like. Let them ask you some questions about this creature and you should answer only “yes” or “no”. The questions can be as follows: Does your creature have long ears? Is your animal black? Does it have a tail? Does it have a cat’s head? Does it have a family? Does it have a name? Does it have many legs? and so on.
Say and Show
Now tell us about your Magic Friend who travels with you in GrammArea. And what does he or she do every day, usually, always, never, often, sometimes? Our fun list will help you with this (only add –s or –es each time): for example: He often hiccups after a good meal (and show us how he does it). Let’s start:
to hiccup after a good meal
to jump and hop like a mad hare at night
to moo like a real cow
to pretend to be a hedgehog
to behave like an old goat
to chase his or her tail like an Indian
to lick his (her) paws in the morning
to wash and splash like a duck in a bathtub
to miss you when you’re out
