Hello,
I'm an English teacher in France. I'm French. I have just received the last programms for teaching English. They say we can teach ' I have two brothers' but I'm not sure at all ! Can you tell me if this sentence is correct ? Or do I absolutely need 'got' : I've got two brothers. If it is correct, is 'I've two brothers' correct too ?

Yes, it's correct but less usual nowadays. It's better to say: I've got two brothers.
I have two brothers.
