Lesson 68

Step 1 Revision

1　 Revise the dialogue in SB Lesson 67.

2　 Find out from the students who is on duty. Check attendance. Teach another day of the week. Ask What day is today? Teach the name of the day.

3　 Have the students contrast similar objects using the adjectives taught so far: This book is red. That one is black.

4　 Revise body parts by miming the riddle from Lesson 65 and playing games together as a class.

Step 2 Spelling and pronunciation

SB Page 4, Part 1, Speech Cassette Lesson 68 (Phonic Reading Work). Books closed! Follow the steps below:

1　 Say Please listen and play the tape.

2　 Play the tape again. Say Listen and repeat.

3　 Write the letter A on the Bb, and next to it write same, grade, table. Students read aloud each word as you point to it.

4　 Say These words all have the lei/ sound. Remind the students of the silent “E= at the end of the words.

5　 Add a few words such as date, fame, lane, etc. and have the students try to pronounce them.

6　 Repeat these steps for the other groups of words.

7　 Show flashcards in random order. Get the students to read them aloud. Make sure the students pronounce the letter A in the six different ways.

*Note: Remember this book uses British pronunciation. Your students may have some questions about the pronunciation of some of the words above, which are pronounced differently in American English, (for example: class and basket are pronounced with the /$/ sound in American English).

Do Wb Lesson 68, Ex. 1.

Step 3 Listening activity

Write the following lists of words in two columns on the Bb as follows:

Ⅰ　　　　　　　　　　　 Ⅱ

wall　　　　　　　　　　 well

went　　　　　　　　　 want

ball　　　　　　　　　　 bell

thanks　　　　　　　　 thinks

hand　　　　　　　　　 hind

Explain to the students in Chinese, that for each pair of words like wall / well you are only going to say one of them. If you say the word from the first column, wall, then they should raise one finger. If you say the word from the second column, well, then they should raise two fingers. For each pair of words say only one of the words. For example, say well. Ask, which word did 1 say? And point to both wall and well on the Bb. The students should have raised two fingers. Continue for the rest of the words. In this way you can get a quick check of the students listening competence.

Step 4 Word stress

SB Page 4, Part 2. Books closed! First tell the students how to divide a word into syllables. Explain to the students in Chinese that English words are stressed, rather like Chinese words have tones. But unlike tones, the stress is on one part (syllable) of the word. The stress is not the same for each word.

1　 Play the tape and say Please listen.

2　 Play the tape again and say Listen and repeat.

3　 Show flashcards in random order and get the students to read the word correctly. Pay close attention to the stress. Get the students to make a gesture to show the stress, like a musical conductor.

4　 Explain that the stressed syllable is marked with ( ). For example, empty consists of emp (stressed syllable) and ty (unstressed syllable).

Step 5 Listen, read and talk

1　 SB Page 4, Part 3. Say each word and have the students repeat.

2　 Have the students take a few minutes to put the body parts in the correct place on the picture. Wander around the class to make sure the students are placing the body parts correctly.

3　 Then have the students work in pairs and discuss the picture. Get the students to say such things as, The doll has a big / small head. Her arms are long/ short, etc.

Step 6 Listen and touch

1　 SB Page 4, Part 4. Teach the word touch.

2　 Say a body part and have the students point to the proper body part on themselves. Say Please listen. For each word I say, touch that part on your body.

3　 Once you feel the students know the body parts well, if time allows, play the “Polly says = game with body parts. For example, Polly says touch your eye, Polly says touch your nose, touch your ear.

Step 7 Read and act

1　 SB Pages 4-5, Part 5, Speech Cassette Lesson 68. This part is optional. Books closed! Ask Whats on the bed? Play the tape. Check answer (a new skirt).

2　 Have the class read the dialogue aloud together. Pay attention to the stress and intonation.

3　 In pairs, have students write their own dialogue using the dialogue in this part as a model. Choose several pairs to read their dialogues for the class.

Step 8 Read and write

1　 SB Page 5, Part 6*. Read the introductory paragraph. Say Now lets read this together. Have the students read the paragraph aloud.

2　 In pairs have students work together to write their own dialogue. The following is a sample dialogue:

W: Excuse me, sir. Could you help me, please?

PM: Certainly!

W: I cant find my son.

PM: Whats his name?

W: His name is Devin.

PM: How old is he?

W: He is 7 years old.

PM: What colour is his shirt?

W: His shirt is red and his trousers are brown.

PM: OK. Lets go and find him. Dont worry.

W: Thank you very much!

If time permits, have several pairs read their dialogue for the class.

Step 9 Checkpoint

Discuss any points you feel the students need explained. When discussing the adjectives, note that just as Chinese uses two words for old, jiu (旧)and lao (老), English also has two words for old — old and elderly. However, they are not used in the same way. Whereas generally jiu is used for things, and lao as a term of respect for a person, old may be used for both things and persons. However, elderly is used for old people to show politeness and respect.

Step 10 Workbook

SB Page 74, Wb Lesson 68, Ex. 3. In pairs, have the students read the descriptions and number the pictures appropriately.

Step 11 Test

Make up some short sentences with blanks like the following for the students to complete.

1　 This bottle is full. That one is …

2　 The box is … small. I cant put the books in it.

3　 I want to take some things to the classroom. … you help me, please?

4　 This box is too full. We cant …it.

5　 This is an old skirt. Wheres my …one?

Homework

Finish off the Workbook exercises. (For Ex. 2, most of the strings of words can make more than 2 sentences. Some can even make 6 sentences!)

Some ideas for extra practice or enrichment

1　 Teach the following chant to the students. When you say the particular body parts, touch them with both hands. For example, when you say head put both of your hands on top of your head, when you say shoulders touch both shoulders, etc. The first few times, say it slowly. Then each time you repeat it speed up. The students have a lot of fun trying to keep up. Another option is to let one of the students come up and lead the chant.

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

Eyes, ears, mouth, nose,

Head, shoulders, knees and toes,

Knees and toes.

2　 Write their own story. Have the students write a paragraph about a time they had to pack either for moving to a new house, or for a holiday. What did they take with them, and was their box or bag heavy or light?
