There is a lot going on here grammatically.  We have the basic "to be" verb, pronouns, possessive pronouns, and basic question formation. To make it fun, take a bean bag or ball and use it to involve every student in asking and answering the question "What is your name?" and later "What is his/her name?"  Dry partner dialogue can be made more interesting by acting out the dialogue in front of the class and/or using the provided "tap sheet."  Seeing and touching the words while saying them will help students remember the words.

Also, my experience is that the verb "To Be" needs a lot of attention right from the start, and a basic "foldable" - that is, a paper folded to reveal vocabulary - is an engaging way for the students to pair subject with verb.
