    our language, Inuktitut, in our first years atschool. Later, we learn French or English. We also do traditional Inuit sports such asjumping games and tests of strength.

    On long, Arctic summer days, we often goon trips into the wilderness in our four-wheel-drive car. We go fishing and have barbecues. Inthe summer, my grandparents live in a tent andgo hunting. My brother and I usually stay with

    them in their tent. Its great. They sometimes

    teach us traditionalcrafts like carvingInuit tools.

    In the winter, weoften go on huntingtrips. Its very, verycold, so we wear

    traditional clothes made of animal skins. They warmer than modern clothes. In the past, Inuitused dogsleds, but we have a snowmobile! WeInuit hunting methods to catch seals and fish. And sometimes we build an igloo and stay in iovernight! Its fun, but it's cold!

    Im always glad to get back to my modernlife: a new house with central heating, runnin water and a TV, but I never want to give up o

    Inuit traditions.

    Teaching Tip

    MotivationAsk students to analyse what makes their classesmore or less motivating. They can do this byremembering two recent lessons, one in whichthey were highly motivated and one in which theirmotivation was low. Each student makes a list ofspeci c aspects of the two lessons that in uencedhis/her level of motivation. Then students meetin small groups to reach a consensus on thecharacteristics that contribute to high and lowmotivation.

    There are some simple things that we can do tohelp wild animals. First, we can think about thethings we throw away.Six-pack rings Your cans of cola probably come in a six-pack and are held together by plastic rings.Unfortunately, many of these rings end up in

    rivers and seas.These six-pack rings are invisible when they arein the water. The rings can get caught aroundthe necks, beaks or legs of seabirds and fish.The rings can strangle them, drown them orcause them to starve to death. They may also getcaught around the necks of baby seals. When theseals grow, the rings can strangle them.

    It is very sad, but you can help! Just cut therings before you throw them away. Also, if yofind any rings on the ground, cut the rings anthen throw them away.Helium balloons Its fun letting bright helium balloons fly up ithe sky, but they are not biodegradable, and t

    can injure or kill wild animals. If they land inthe sea, turtles, dolphins and whales can mistthem for jellyfish, a favourite food, and swallthem. The balloons can get caught in theirstomachs and kill them. If the balloons land ia tree, birds and small animals can get caughin the string. So help wildlife: dont releaseballoons outside.

    The Use of Can Ask students to nd the sentences with can in the text.Discuss with the class the use ofcan, remindingstudents that we use it to express possibility.Ask students to tell you the difference betweenThey injure animals and They can injure animals.The rings get caught and The rings can get caught .Work with other examples from the text.

    you think that rubber bands can hurt animals?If students are having a dif cult time thinking of ideas,help them and say Animals can swallow rubber bands.We can help animals by reusing rubber bands, notthrowing them away.Repeat with the other illustrations:Small animals can

    get caught in plastic bags. Pesticide can kill birds.Broken glass can injure dogs.
