They are different from rivers or streams because they don't have moving water. They are different from lakes because they are small and they aren't deep. Some ponds are formed naturally but other ponds are made by man. Ponds are living areas with acquatic plants and animals. 4 2 PLANTS LIVING IN THE POND Some acquatic plants live in the pond. They help to balance the pond ecosystem and they give food to animals living inside and around the pond. Tin roads have a stem and leaves Water lilies have large leaves and floating flowers 5 3 ANIMALS LIVING INSIDE AND AROUND PONDS Inside ponds live fish, frogs, froglets, tadpoles and ducks. Around ponds live kingfishers, warms, ducks, dragonflies and insects. 6 READING ACTIVITY Match the pictures with the sentences and then colour them Ponds are small areas of still fresh water. There are wonderful water lilies in some ponds Female frogs lay their eggs in the pond There are tin rods in lots of ponds Ducks swim in the pond 7 8 ORAL PRODUCTION Our Pond (Video) 9 COURIOSITIES (Pair work) about Ponds Name: Seki Pond Country: Japon Caracteristiques: Clean water; colourful leaves; colourful fish; colourful water lilies. Name: Blue Pond Country: Japon Caracteristiques: Deep blue coloured pond. It's blue because there are natural minerals dissolved in the water. Name: Langlei Pond Country: South Caroline (U.S.A.) Caracteristiques: The largest pond in the world.. . 10 READING COMPREHENSION LIFE CYCLE OF A FROG A female frog lays a hundred of eggs and then a male fertilises them. A layer of jelly holds the eggs together and gives them protection. Few weeks later a tadpole goes out of the egg. After a few days appear the external gills, the tail becomes longer and the fins develop. Then the external gills disappear and the back legs grow. After that the tadpole becomes froglet and develops front legs and lungs. Finally the tail disappears and the froglet turns into an adult frog. 1 ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: 1. Who lays hundred of eggs? 2. Who fertilises eggs? 3. When does a tadpole go out of the egg? 4. What happens after a few days? 5. When do external gills disappear? 6. What does the tadpole develop when it becomes a froglet? 7. When does the froglet become an adult frog? 11 2 MATCH THE NUMBER WITH THE WORD 4 3 1 2 FROGLET ADULT FROG TADPOLE EGG 12 2 1 3 4 3 Match the numbers with the description A Later the tadpole develops into froglet. B Few weeks later a tadpole goes out of the egg. C. A female frog lays eggs. D When it develops legs and lungs and the tail disappears the froglet becomes a frog. 13 ORAL PRODUCTION (Pair work) (ALL THE STUDENTS, IN PAIRS, DO A DIALOGUE WEARING A MASK. THEY CHOOSE TO PRESENT ONE OF THE ANIMAL LIVING AROUND PONDS) Dialogue with the kingfisher (video) A‐ Hello, who are you? B‐ Hello, I’m the kingfisher. A‐ Where do you live? B‐ I live around this pond. A‐ How are you? B‐ I’m a small bird. I’ve got a long beak but I’ve got short legs. I’ve got two wings. I’m blue and yellow. A‐ What can you do? B‐ I can fly and I can dive. 14 OUR POND Classe 1 E Plesso Gemelli a.s. 201516 15 Allegati INTRODUZIONE STAGNO_0001.wmv DIALOGO STAGNO.wmv
