    Ordinal Numbers

    What are ordinal numbers?

    • Ordinal numbers tell us the order or position of things.
    • They are not the same as numbers that show how many.
    • Example:
      • Number → how many: one, two, three
      • Ordinal → order: first, second, third

    1️⃣ Most ordinal numbers: add “-th”

    • For most numbers, just add -th to the number.
    • Examples:
      • four → fourth
      • six → sixth
      • seven → seventh
      • ten → tenth

    Rule: number + th → ordinal


    2️⃣ Special ordinal forms (irregular)

    Some ordinals don’t follow the “-th” rule. You need to learn them by heart:

    NumberOrdinalWord
    11stfirst
    22ndsecond
    33rdthird
    55thfifth
    88theighth
    99thninth
    1212thtwelfth

    3️⃣ Numbers ending in “-y”

    • Change -y to -ie and add -th
    • Examples:
      • twenty → twentieth
      • thirty → thirtieth
      • forty → fortieth

    4️⃣ Using ordinal numbers in sentences

    • This is my first day.
    • She lives on the third floor.
    • My birthday is on the second of May.

    5️⃣ Using ordinal numbers with dates

    • Ordinals are used to talk about dates:
      • February 2nd → “the second of February”
      • July 21st → “the twenty-first of July”

    6️⃣ Quick beginner tips

    • Numbers → how many: 1, 2, 3 …
    • Ordinals → order: 1st, 2nd, 3rd …
    • Remember the special ones: first, second, third, fifth, eighth, ninth, twelfth

    The black panther is a big and strong wild animal. It is very beautiful and very fast. The black panther is not a different kind of animal. It is a leopard or a jaguar with black color. The black color comes from the skin and the fur. Sometimes, if the sun is bright, you can see spots on its body. These spots are like the normal leopard or jaguar.

    Black panthers live in warm places. They live in forests and jungles. Some live in Africa, some in Asia, and some in South America. They like places with many trees. Trees are important for them. Panthers can climb trees and hide from danger. They also rest in trees during the day.

    The black panther is a

    carnivore.
    This means it eats meat. It eats animals like deer, birds, and small animals. The black panther is a very good hunter. It hunts mostly at night. At night, it can see very well. Its black color helps it hide in the dark. When it moves quietly, other animals do not see it.

    The black panther is very fast and strong. It can run quickly and jump far. It can also climb very high. Sometimes, it jumps from tree to tree. It is very quiet. It does not make much noise. But when it wants, it can roar. Its roar is very loud. It uses the roar to protect its home or to scare other animals.

    Black panthers usually live alone. They do not live in groups like lions. They meet other panthers only to have babies. A baby panther is called a cub. The mother panther takes care of her cubs. She teaches them how to hunt and how to live in the forest. Cubs stay with their mother for a long time. Then, they go to live alone.


    The black panther is important for nature. It helps keep the forest alive. It controls the number of other animals. Without black panthers, some animals can eat too much food and destroy the forest.

    Today, black panthers are in danger. People cut the forests to build houses and roads. This is called deforestation. It is very bad for panthers. Some people also hunt black panthers for their fur. This is illegal in many countries, but it still happens. We must protect the black panther and its home.

    In conclusion, the black panther is a beautiful, strong, and smart animal. It is quiet, fast, and powerful. It lives in forests and jungles, hunts at night, and climbs trees very well. We should respect black panthers and protect the forests where they live.

    The cheetah is a beautiful and interesting animal. It is a wild animal and it lives in nature. The cheetah is famous because it is the fastest land animal in the world. Many people like the cheetah because it is strong, fast, and elegant.

    The cheetah lives mainly in Africa. Some cheetahs also live in parts of Asia, but they are very rare there. Cheetahs like open places such as grasslands and savannas. These places are good for running and hunting. The cheetah needs a lot of space to live and move freely.

    The cheetah has a slim body and long legs. Its body is made for speed. It has a small head and a long tail. The tail helps the cheetah keep balance when it runs. The cheetah has yellow fur with black spots all over its body. These spots help the cheetah hide in the grass. The cheetah also has black lines on its face. These lines go from the eyes to the mouth and help protect its eyes from the sun.

    The cheetah eats meat. It is a

    carnivore.

    It hunts animals like deer, rabbits, and small antelopes. The cheetah hunts during the day. It uses its strong legs and fast speed to catch its prey. The cheetah can run very fast, up to 100 kilometers per hour, but only for a short time. After running, the cheetah needs to rest because it gets tired quickly.

    _______________

    Cheetahs usually live alone, but sometimes they live in small groups. A mother cheetah lives with her babies. She takes care of them and teaches them how to hunt. Baby cheetahs are called cubs. They are very cute and playful. The mother protects them from danger.

    Today, cheetahs are in danger. There are not many cheetahs left in the world. People destroy their homes and hunt animals that cheetahs eat. Because of this, cheetahs cannot find enough food or safe places to live. Many organizations work to protect cheetahs and their habitats.

    In conclusion, the cheetah is an amazing animal. It is fast, beautiful, and important for nature. We should learn about cheetahs and help protect them. Saving cheetahs means saving nature and the future of our planet.

    🐆 Good luck!🐆

    Wenn ich ein Wort vergesse

    • Ich bleibe ruhig
    • Ich atme kurz ein
    • Ich sage es anders
    • Oder ich mache weiter

    👉 Das ist nicht schlimm.


    Am Ende

    • Ich sage:
      “Thank you for listening.”
    • Ich lächle
    • Ich gehe ruhig zurück


    2️⃣ Spiegel-Übung zum Üben

    (5–10 Minuten, sehr gut für Zuhause)

    Schritt 1: Hinstellen

    • Stell dich vor einen Spiegel
    • Füße fest auf den Boden
    • Rücken gerade
    • Schultern locker

    👉 Schau dich an und sag:
    „So stehe ich gut.“


    Schritt 2: Atmen

    • Atme langsam ein
    • Atme langsam aus
    • Mach das dreimal

    👉 Dein Körper wird ruhig.


    Schritt 3: Sprechen üben

    • Sag den ersten Satz laut
    • Schau dir dabei selbst in die Augen
    • Sprich langsam

    👉 Lieber langsam als schnell.


    Schritt 4: Mit Fehlern üben

    • Sag extra ein Wort falsch
    • Dann sprich ruhig weiter

    👉 So lernt dein Kopf:
    Fehler sind nicht schlimm.


    Schritt 5: Ende üben

    • Sag laut:
      “Thank you for listening.”
    • Lächle dir im Spiegel zu

    👉 Diese Übung macht mutig.



    3️⃣ Mut-Spruch für kurz vor dem Referat

    (zum Auswendiglernen)

    Du kannst ihr sagen, sie soll ihn leise im Kopf sagen:

    „Ich bin gut vorbereitet.
    Ich spreche langsam.
    Ich darf Fehler machen.
    Ich schaffe das.“

    Oder noch kürzer:

    „Ich bin ruhig.
    Ich schaffe das.“

    Körpersprache beim Referat – Erklärung für die Schule

    Wenn du ein Referat hältst, ist nicht nur wichtig, was du sagst, sondern auch wie du dich zeigst. Das nennt man Körpersprache. Sie hilft den Zuhörern, dich zu verstehen, und macht dein Referat interessanter.

    1. Haltung

    • Steh gerade, nicht schief oder zusammengesunken.
    • Eine gute Haltung zeigt, dass du selbstbewusst bist und sicher in deinem Vortrag.
    • Hände locker an den Seiten oder leicht bewegend – nicht in die Taschen oder verschränkt.

    2. Blickkontakt

    • Schau deine Zuhörer an, nicht nur deine Notizen oder die Wand.
    • Blickkontakt zeigt, dass du mit ihnen sprichst und sie aufmerksam sein sollen.
    • Du musst nicht jeden einzelnen ständig anschauen, aber immer wieder zu verschiedenen Personen schauen.

    3. Gestik (Bewegung mit den Händen)

    • Nutze deine Hände, um das zu zeigen, was du sagst.
    • Zum Beispiel: „Es war sehr groß“ – die Hände etwas auseinander halten.
    • Gesten machen dein Referat lebendiger und die Zuhörer merken sich die Infos besser.

    4. Bewegung

    • Steh ruhig, wackel nicht zu viel hin und her.
    • Ein kleiner Schritt nach links oder rechts ist okay, wenn du etwas betonen willst.
    • Zu viel Bewegung kann ablenken.

    5. Gesichtsausdruck

    • Lächeln ist gut – es macht dich freundlich und die Zuhörer hören lieber zu.
    • Zeige auch Gefühle, die zu deinem Thema passen, z. B. Erstaunen oder Freude.

    6. Stimme und Betonung

    • Sprich deutlich und laut genug, dass alle dich hören können.
    • Variiere die Stimme, also nicht immer gleich schnell oder leise.
    • Betonung hilft den Zuhörern, die wichtigen Dinge zu merken.

    Warum ist Körpersprache so wichtig?

    1. Sie zeigt, dass du selbstbewusst bist.
    2. Sie hilft den Zuhörern, dir zuzuhören und dich zu verstehen.
    3. Sie macht dein Referat spannender – Zuhörer langweilen sich weniger.
    4. Sie unterstützt deine Worte – manchmal versteht man Dinge besser durch Gesten und Mimik als nur durch Worte.

    PRESENT CONTINUOUS


    1. When to use it (Present Continuous = “-ing” form)

    We use the present continuous to talk about things that are happening right now, at the moment of speaking, at this moment.

    Examples:

    • I am eating. (I am eating now.)
    • She is reading a book. (She is reading now.)
    • They are playing football. (They are playing now.)

    2. How to form it

    Formula:

    Subject + be + verb + -ing

    Step 1: Use the right form of be

    • I → am
    • He / She / It → is
    • You / We / They → are

    Step 2: Add verb + -ing


    3. How to make -ing verbs (rules)

    1. Normal verbs: just add -ing
    • eat → eating
    • play → playing
    • read → reading
    1. Verbs ending with -e: remove -e and add -ing
    • make → making
    • write → writing
    • dance → dancing
    1. One-syllable verbs with one vowel + one consonant: double the last consonant and add -ing
    • run → running
    • sit → sitting
    • swim → swimming
    1. Verbs ending with -ie: change -ie to -y and add -ing
    • lie → lying
    • die → dying

    Quick tip:

    • Words like now, at the moment, today often show we use present continuous.
    • Don’t forget -ing at the end of the verb!
