PROCEDURES

1  Drill pronunciation of all four words (mammoth /‘mæm.əθ/, sloth /slowθ/). Students do it
individually and pair check. Classcheck and elicit the names of the characters (mammoth –
Manfred/Manny; squirrel – its name is not mentioned in the film, but it’s Scrat; tiger – Diego; sloth -
Sid). Teach “character” and have them vote for the best character through a show of hands.

2  Elicit possible answers. Students chat in pairs. Monitor for the use of simple past and for the
pronunciation of the words from #1.

3  Have a volunteer read the questions aloud for the class. Students should focus on these
questions while watching the snippet. Show scene 5 from beginning to end (after Diego steps on
the baby’s necklace, humans run after the tigers) with closed captions. Students discuss their
answers in pairs. Classcheck.

Answer Key: 3) a) I saw sabre-toothed tigers and wolves; b) There were pre-historic humans; c) They lived in
