👨👩👧 Sunshine Club: This Is My Family!
Lesson 19 of the Sunshine Club A1.1 series (ages 7-9) opens the My Family unit. Children warm up with four playful actions (wave, count your family on your fingers, say 'This is my mum!'), then meet the family words in three friendly boxes: My family (mum, dad, brother, sister with emoji rows), More family (grandma, grandpa, baby, family) and Ask and answer, which turns 'Who's this?' → 'This is my…' into a simple formula with a magic-words panel. Ten key words (mum, dad, brother, sister, grandma, grandpa, baby, family, photo, love) appear in a scrollable table with 3-6 word definitions and tiny examples, and six get review flashcards. Story Corner tells 'Ela's Family Photo' (about 75 words, lines of 3-7 words, big repetition) in which Ela shows Tom every family member, with five hover-tooltip words and a word-cards chip row of six sight words for early literacy. Practice offers 8 one-word fill-in-the-blanks (is, my, this and family words) with live green/red feedback and hints; Speaking gives five short show-and-tell prompts plus a 6-line Nina-and-Omar example dialogue; Writing is the homework task reframed with three sentence frames ('This is my ___', 'I love my ___'), a 4-step baby checklist and a live counter aiming for 10-20 words; and the Sunshine Quiz asks 8 ultra-simple multiple-choice questions (including two about the story) with one-sentence explanations, a progress bar and localStorage persistence.
