It’s just wonderful! Thank you! Now it’s Hammy’s turn to dream. Let’s see what he dreams about:

Hammy’s dreams

I dream of blue sea,

Of the beach and of sand.

When we go to the seaside

For a lovely week-end.

I dream of sweet cookies

And of yummy cheese,

When we go to the seaside,

We walk in the breeze.

I run and swim there

(At the seaside, I mean)

And watch Homiq play

With his volleyball team.

I eat only pizza

(For dinners, I say).

And with all my hedgehogs

I spend the whole day!

Talk! Can you tell us all the things which Hammy does in his dreams? Thank you! Are your dreams just the same as Hammy’s? Draw a picture of what you usually dream about and tell us a few words about it.

Homiq and Hammy can see two shops in front of them. The first is called Daily Open – DO, the second one is Delicious Oranges Enormous Store – DOES. Let’s go and have a closer look at them.

Talk! Do you like oranges and orange juice? What about your Magic Friend? Who usually buys food in your family?

Homiq and Hammy ask Mrs. Often about these shops and she says:

A rap about the DO – shop

Sells all things – it’s Daily Open –

Spring and summer – and in autumn!

I and You and We and They –

Hurry here every day!

Who owns the DO-shop, my friend? Can you find them in the rap above and in the picture? We wonder about DOES – and here goes one more rap from Mrs. Often:

A rap about the DOES – shop

Delicious Oranges Enormous Store –

He reads the sign and opens the door.

She comes right here and buys some things –

It feels so good that she flies on wings!

Who are the owners of the DOES-shop? Can you find them in the picture and the rap above, my friend?

Oh, it seems that the first customer is here!

Homiq sees a cowboy-hamster riding a horse. We see him too, don’t we?

Play! Let’s be cowboys! I hope you know who a cowboy is. He has got a hat, a horse, a lasso and (oh, my!) – he’s got a gun! Show Homiq and Hammy how you ride a horse! Well done! You are a real cowboy! What colour is your horse? And your hat? Wonderful!

The owners of the two shops love this customer – he is the best! And they know a poem about him. Let’s listen!

A Poem about a cowboy

Does he often ride a horse? – Yes, he does!

Does he often ride a bike? – No, he doesn’t!

Does he often, tell me, does he often,

Does he often ride a horse?

Do you always see him here? – No, we don’t.

Do you always see him here? – No, we don’t.

Do you always, tell me, do you always,

Do you always see him here?

Do the hamsters have much fun? – Yes, they do!

Do the hamsters have much fun? – Yes, they do!

Do the hamsters, tell me, do the hamsters,

Do the hamsters have much fun?

Please, find all the examples of do/does in the poem above.

Note! We use do / do not (don’t) and does / does not (doesn’t) in Present Simple in questions and negative sentences:

Do you have a bike? Does he have a bike?

I don’t have a bike. He doesn’t have a bike.

We use does / does not (doesn’t) with he (for example, your Dad), she (for example, your Mom) or it (it can be your pet) in questions and negative sentences:

Does he like his buns with honey?

Does she want to spend much money?

Does it really look funny?

He doesn’t like his buns with honey.

She doesn’t want to spend much money.

It doesn’t really look funny.

Play! Dear friend, let’s make up our own poem (like the one about the cowboy-hamster) starting with: “Do you often…?”, “Does he always…?” and the like. We bet you know a lot of words and phrases, but maybe the following ones will help you a little: often bake a cake, seldom eat a pie, always lock the door, never wash your hands. Well done!

Now read the text below, find all the examples of do/does in it and count them. There should be 7 of them:

Mr. Hamish wakes up at 7 o’clock every day. But does he go to work at once? – No, he doesn’t! He usually feeds his dog named Ham. When Ham is not hungry any more, it wags its tail to show that it’s happy. Does Ham bark? – No, it doesn’t, because it doesn’t want to wake everybody up. Does Mr. Hamish’s wife wave him good-bye? – Yes, she does, – and he leaves for work.

Great! Remember, though, that in other cases (with I, we, you, they) we should use Do or do not (don’t).

Play! The next game is Simple, as everything is in Present Simple. Just answer the questions and follow your answers. Try to answer every question that you see in the scheme below:

Look! There is a beautiful she-hamster coming to us. What does she have in her paw? Do you like her dress? She’s got such cute ears, hasn’t she?

Talk! Do you have a garden? What do you usually plant in your garden? What would you plant in the garden of your dream? What is your favourite flower?

Her name is Sally. She hums a rhyme to herself. Can you hear it? Shush! Let’s listen now!

Let’s plant a flower!

There she goes, goes, goes

And she knows, knows, knows

Where to go and what to do

To plant a rose, rose, rose!

Sally wants to play with Homiq, Hammy and you! Someone is here to join you. Guess her name from the poem below:

Autumn…

Leaves are falling down,
