Tips
Step 1 Lead in
· The T can lead in the unit topic by asking Ss What can we do on the weekend? Ss may be asked to brainstorm kinds of weekend activities so that their prior knowledge can be activated. Then the T can write these activities on the board to prepare for the next activity.
· The T present some pictures and encourage Ss to make conversations with partners.
Step 2 Presentation & Practice
· Before Ss do activity 1a, the T may want to review vocabulary using the unit topic picture. The T can use the following prompts:
1. Name two types of food in the picture.
2. Name four articles of clothing in the picture.
3. Name six things the students are doing in the picture.
· 1a
The activity is to introduce Ss to the unit goal and set the scene. The T can do the activity 1a as a class or have Ss do this alone or in pairs first before doing the activity as a class.
Answers:
1. help with housework
2. watch TV
3. exercise
4. read a book
5. go shopping
· 1b
Before listening, the T should make sure that Ss understand the meaning of the words in activity 1b by having Ss close their textbooks and writing the following on the board:
100% 0%
Never, usually, always, often, sometimes, hardly ever
Then have Ss work in pairs to list the words in order from top to bottom. Then check the answers as a class. The T can explain the usage of these adverbs of frequency to Ss.
· 1b
While listening, the T may play the recording for the first time and ask Ss to complete activity 1b with the boys’ answers in the conversation. Then check the answers as a class:
always—exercise, usually—watch TV, never—go shopping
