Let's Talk in English.
Hey everyone, and welcome to Let's Talk in English.
I am Gabe.
And I'm Andrea.
We are so glad you joined us again today.
We continue to learn how to talk about pets.
And today we're going to talk about Taking Care of Pets.
It's important to give your pet everything it needs.
And how do you know what your pet needs?
Well, each pet is different.
Today we're going to learn different ways of how to take care of your pets.
Maybe you can pet your pet or play with your pet.
And these are some key words from today.
You're going to learn more about these later.
So right now let's start with our Read It.
Pets also need love.
People should take time to pet their animal and play with it.
Some people really love their pets.
The pets sleep in their beds with them.
Some pets share their owner's food.
They may even sit on the table to eat!
Some people put clothes on their pets too.
And some people take their pets on vacation.
These pets are really part of the family.
You need to take care of your pets.
And you also need to show your pets love.
Our Read It starts by saying pets also need love.
Now how can you show your pet love?
How can you show your pet that you like them and are happy they are with you?
Well, one thing you can do is take time to pet your animal.
Now here we see the word "pet," P-E-T, as a verb.
And Gabe, how do you pet an animal?
Well, you use your hand, and you touch the animal's fur.
And my cat loves it when I pet him.
He starts making a noise we call purring.
A cat starts to purr when I pet my cat.
Yeah. So your cat knows that you love him by petting the cat.
Now friends, this is a verb that you have to remember for the past tense.
The past tense of pet is also "pet." So I pet my cat every day.
Or I pet my cat early this morning.
OK, so you have to remember that.
One way to show love to an animal is to pet the animal.
But you can also play with the animal.
And "play" is a key word today.
It's a verb.
When you play with an animal, you do something fun with it.
It's a time to be active with your animal.
So what kinds of animals can you play with?
You can play with different kinds of animals.
But I usually think of a dog when I think of playing with an animal because dogs
love to play.
They love to have fun.
They love to run around.
And that is called playing with your dog.
Now Gabe, we know you have a pet cat.
Yeah.
Does your pet cat sleep in the same bed as you?
Yes. He does.
Well, we found out in our Read It paragraph that many people let their pets
sleep in beds with them.
I guess that's a way to show your pet that you love them as well.
Some owners also share their food with the pet.
Now if you are the owner of a pet, that means it's your pet.
Let's look at this key word.
share.
When you share something with another person or with an animal, you take some,
but you also give some to the other person.
And Andrea, I don't usually share my food with my pet cat.
I don't think he likes my food very much.
And he doesn't share his food with me because I don't really like his food very
much.
And you probably don't share your clothes with your pet.
No, I don't.
Let's look at this key word.
clothes.
clothes.
I am wearing clothes.
I'm sure you are wearing clothes.
You wear clothes on your body.
And who usually wears clothes?
Well, people do.
But some people like to dress their pets up in clothes.
And then they take them on vacation.
"Vacation" is a key word.
vacation.
When you go on a vacation, you take time off.
You don't work or go to school.
You often go to a new place on vacation.
It's fun to travel on vacation.
And so if someone gets back from vacation, ask them this question: How was your
vacation?
What was your vacation like?
Well, let's continue now by learning more with Christina.
(Chinese).
And now let's continue with our program.
Pets need love.
Yes, they do.
People should take time for their pets.
Will you take time to play with me?
Yes, I'll play with you sometimes.
Good. Will you share your food with me?
Yes, I'll share my food with you sometimes.
Good. Can I sit at the table to eat?
Uh, well, OK. You can sit at the table sometimes.
Good. Will you buy me clothes?
Uh, well, maybe... but...
Will you take me on vacations?
Uh well, I don't know. Um...
Can I be part of your family?
Well, yes. Of course. You are my pet. You're part of my family.
Hooray! Hey dad, let's go to Hawaii. Yeah.

He is very clean, and doesn't make many messes.
