How will the world be different 100 years from now?
Tip: T can tell Ss that one of the differences 100 years later is people will have robots.
· Group Discussion
Step 1: T divides Ss into groups of four, asks them to discuss: What can robots do?
Step 2: T chooses one S from each group to share the answer of his / her group.
Step 3: T shows Ss pictures on PPT P6 and P7. T introduces some new words and expressions about the things robots can do.
· Ask and answer: How will the life be different in the future?
T shows Ss pictures about the changes of life in the future (PPT P8-P11) and asks them to describe the pictures.
· Predictions for the future
T shows Ss some descriptions for the future (from PPT P12-P14) and introduces the simple future tense (the usage of “will”).
· Free Talk

Do you think the predictions for the future will come true?
What other predictions about the future can you make?
