pattern of forming ordinal numbers 

. Make sure that students know that except for ​eleventh​, ​twelfth,​ and ​thirteenth​, numbers ending with one, two, or 
three are irregular and should be said ​first​, ​second​, and ​third​ respectively. You should also look at all multiples of 
ten from twentieth through ninetieth because these are ​pronounced slightly differently​ from other ordinal 
numbers. As with cardinal numbers students may confuse words such as ​thirteenth​ and ​thirtieth​ so these may 
require a round of Bingo of their own for extra practice.
To state the obvious, firstly students need to be able to quickly produce and (more 
often) understand ordinal numbers in dates, rankings, etc. More specifically, they 
need to be able to convert ordinal numbers to and from short forms (“1​st ​= first”, etc) 
and cardinal numbers (“1 = first”, etc). If they can’t work it out for themselves, they 
will need to be told that numbers with 1, 2 and 3 add “-st”, “-nd” and “-rd” rather than 
the usual “-th”, and that this includes numbers bigger than 20 (“42​nd​”, etc). It can also 
be very useful to point out that ones ending in “-y” add another syllable when they 
become “-iest”. This luckily makes the two-syllable word “thirteenth” and the 
three-syllable word “thirtieth” much easier to distinguish than the two-syllable words 
“thirteen” and “thirty”, and ditto with “fourteenth” and “fortieth”, etc. 
Once they know how to (quickly) make ordinal numbers, students will need practice 
in using them in the right situations. In general, ordinal numbers are used to show a 
position in a limited number of options, such as places in a race (“He came first”) 
and days in a schedule (“On the third day, we have several important meetings”). 
Ordinal numbers are also used in some ways of saying months, including the most 
common British English form (“The seventh of January”, etc). Although this is likely 
to come up much later than initial practice of ordinal numbers, they are also often 
used with superlative adjectives in sentences like “He is the second tallest in the 
class” and in likes and dislikes to say “My second favourite…”

We use possessive adjectives:
● to show something belongs to somebody:
That's our house.
My car is very old.
● to express familial, work and friendly relationships:
My mother is a doctor.
How old is your sister?
● for parts of the body:
He's broken his arm.
She's washing her hair.
I need to clean my teeth.
-​The possessive adjective its does not have an apostrophe ('​):
That bird has broken its (NOT it's) wing.
(it's always means it is or it has.)

(describe herself, her family members)

(AGE) HOW OLD AM I? I AM --- YEARS OLD.
