Rule: Family and people around us

Your mum’s mum is your gran, your dad’s brother your uncle, your mum’s sister your aunt. Your aunt’s son is your cousin.

A doctor treats sick people, a baker bakes bread, a firefighter puts out fires, a postal worker delivers letters.

Example: We greet a grown-up with “Good morning”. When someone passes us something, we say “Thank you”.

Watch out: Your cousin is not your dad’s brother but your aunt’s or uncle’s child. Your dad’s brother is your uncle.
