Unit Overview
📍 SWAT — Students Will Be Able To
Students will be able to talk about their family members and describe possessions using possessive ‘s and possessive adjectives my, your, his, her.
Teacher Note
What You Will Deliver
Unit 2 builds directly on Unit 1. Students already know I am and My name is. Now they extend that to talk about the people around them — mother, father, brother, sister — and describe what belongs to whom. By the end, every student must be able to point to a family photo and describe it in English.
