English Language Year 6 : Unit 3 : Family Ties
Handout : Idith’s family members talk about the bliss of having an extended
family.

When my children were born, I encourage their


grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins to be a part of their
life.

mother

My extended family members live in different states. They


come over during our family gatherings such as weddings,
birthday parties, and funerals. These gatherings make us
closer to each other.
aunt

My siblings live in the same town with their children. It is


a lot of fun to visit them and be able to see them. We often
have barbecues and potlucks together. My children,
nieces, and nephews consider themselves as best friends.
This allows them to share their interests, hobbies, and also
cousin problems.

My nearest family members live five hours away, so it is a


real treat when they come to visit us. I wish we could see
each other more often.

uncle

I’m studying in London. I use social media to chat with my


family members at all times. Therefore, we do not miss
each other.

Exercise A : Recite the poem

My Sister’s Eating Porridge

My sister’s eating porridge


It’s going everywhere.
Up her nose and down her front;
A dollop in her hair.

My sister’s eating porridge,


She’s missed her mouth again.
Now it’s dripping off her spoon
Like lumpy porridge rain.

My sister’s eating porridge


And most is on the floor.
No wonder she is hungry
And crying out for, ‘More!’
