Possessives




SESSION 1 (80 min) ANTICIPATION

Part 1 – Whose is it ?( 10-15 minutes)

Anticipation Activity:

“Whose Is It?” (10–15 mins)

  • Objective: To spark curiosity and introduce the concept of ownership.
  • Instructions: 1. Have students look around their digital or physical classroom. 2. Hold up a random object (e.g., a pen, a notebook) belonging to a student. Ask: “Is this my pen?” 3. Guide them to answer: “No, it’s [Name]’s pen.” 4. Write these contrast examples on the board: My pen vs. It is mine.

Part 2: Vocabulary Development (15 min)

The teacher explicitly introduces key vocabulary needed for the lesson, ensuring students clearly understand meaning and use. The words include:

Backpack (noun)

Headphones (noun)

Keyring (noun)

To belong to (verb phrase) – e.g., This belongs to me.

Messy room (noun phrase) – Great context for daily life.

Can I borrow …?

Can you lend me…?


Part 3: Grammar Introduction using Presentation (20 min)

Grammar Introduction: Adjectives vs. Pronouns (20 mins)

  • Concept: Possessive Adjectives go before the noun. Possessive Pronouns replace the noun (usually at the end of the sentence).

“Find Someone Who…” (Digital Version)

  1. Instruction: Give students a digital list of 5 facts (e.g., …likes pizza, …wakes up at 6 AM).
  2. Task: Students must transform these into Wh- questions (e.g., “What do you like to eat?” or “When do you wake up?”).
  3. Interaction: They use the chat or breakout rooms to ask classmates and record names.
SubjectPossessive Adjective (+ Noun)Possessive Pronoun (Stand-alone)
IThis is my backpack.This backpack is mine.
YouWhere are your headphones?Are these headphones yours?
He / SheIt is his/her keyring.The keyring is his/hers.
WeThis is our room.The room is ours.
TheyIt is their house.The house is theirs.
Instruction Tip: Remind students that possessive pronouns never take an apostrophe (e.g., ours, not our’s).


Grammar Practice Activity (35 mins)

Activity Name: Digital Interactive Fill-In & Transform.
Instructions:
Part 1 (15 mins): Students complete a 10-question digital worksheet (Google Forms or LiveWorksheets) choosing between my/mine, your/yours, etc.
Part 2 (20 mins): “Sentence Transformer.” In pairs via breakout rooms or chat, Student A writes a sentence with an adjective (“This is my phone”), and Student B must rewrite it using a pronoun (“This phone is mine”). They must complete 5 rounds each.

Next-Day Activity: “The Lost & Found Desk” (Fun & Creative)

  • Instructions:
    1. Tell students they are working at a hotel or school “Lost & Found” department.
    2. Provide a digital slide with images of 5 lost items (e.g., a messy backpack, broken headphones, a cool keyring) labeled with fictional owners’ names (e.g., Carlos, Maria, The Twins).
    3. Task: Students must write a short dialogue (6–8 lines) or a paragraph resolving who the items belong to.
    4. Example Prompt: “Excuse me, is this backpack yours?” “No, it’s not mine. It’s hers (Maria’s).”
    5. Have 3–4 pairs volunteer to read their dialogue out loud.

Part 1 – ( 2 x 40min)

Period 1: Portfolio Production (40 mins)

  • Task: “My Everyday Spaces” Comic Strip or Digital Poster (Can use Canva or Google Slides).
  • Instructions: 1. Students upload 3 images or draw 3 scenes of their daily life (their bedroom, their family kitchen, their school desk). 2. For each image, they must write 2 sentences: one using a possessive adjective and one using a possessive pronoun. 3. Example: Scene 1 (Bedroom): “This is my bed. The messy desk is mine too.”

    Period 2: Presentation & Quiz (40 mins)
  • Peer Review / Presentation (20 mins): Students share their digital posters in groups of three. They must ask each other one question about ownership (e.g., “Is that computer yours or your brother’s?”).
  • Quick Digital Quiz (20 mins): A 15-question multiple-choice quiz on platforms like Kahoot, Quizizz, or Google Forms to formally grade their understanding of the grammar mechanics.
