Teaching Procedures Step 1: Lead - in Show students a video about International Volunteer Day (December 5th) on the multimedia. While watching the video, ask students to observe what people do to help others. After the video, have a free talk with students. Ask: “What did you see in the video? Why do people do these things?” Guide students to understand the meaning of volunteering, that is, people give help to others without expecting rewards. Then introduce the topic of this lesson - volunteer activities. Step 2: Work on 1a (8 minutes) Ask students to look at the pictures in 1a. Let them describe the ways to help people shown in the pictures, such as “clean up the city parks”, “give out food at a food bank”, “cheer up the sick kids in the hospital” and “help the old people at the old people's home”. Then, ask students to work in pairs and list other ways they could help people. Encourage them to think creatively and use their imagination. For example, coaching kids in a sport, donating clothes to the poor, helping disabled people cross the road, etc. Invite some pairs to share their ideas with the whole class. Write down the useful expressions on the blackboard. Step 3: Listening (1b) (7 minutes) Tell students that they will listen to a conversation between a boy and a girl about volunteer work. Before listening, let them look at the sentences in 1b quickly and predict what they will hear. Play the tape for the first time. Students just listen. Then play it again. This time, ask them to number the ways the boy and the girl could help others according to what they hear. Check the answers with the whole class. Invite one student to read the sentences in order, and the others check if their answers are correct. Step 4: Conversation (1c) Let students work in pairs and practice the conversation in the picture in 1a. They can use the expressions they learned just now. After a few minutes, show the activities in 1b to students. Let them make new conversations based on these activities. For example: A: I'd like to work outside. B: You could help to clean up the city parks. Ask some pairs to act out their conversations in front of the class. The rest of the students listen carefully and give comments. Step 5: Listening (2a & 2b) Work on 2a: Tell students that they will listen to another conversation. First, let them look at the pictures in 2a. Then play the tape. Students listen and check the pictures they hear. After listening, ask students what other things they think the speakers could do. Encourage them to express their own opinions. Work on 2b: Play the tape again. This time, students listen carefully and fill in the blanks. After they finish, show some phrases and sentences used in 2b on the PPT, such as “come up with”, “put off”, “put up”, “hand out”, “call up”. Let students match them with the pictures in 2a. Check the answers together and explain the meanings and usages of these phrasal verbs briefly. Step 6: Conversation (2c & 2d) Work on 2c: The teacher makes a conversation as B with all the students as A. For example: Teacher (B): I'd like to do something to help others. Students (A): You could visit the sick kids in the hospital and cheer them up. Then ask students to work in pairs to role - play more conversations. They can use their own ideas or the examples on the book. Work on 2d: Let students work in pairs. Ask them to read and role - play the conversation between Mario and Mary. They should pay attention to the intonation and pronunciation. Choose some pairs to present the conversation in class. After the presentation, ask other students to point out the good points and不足之处. Step 7: Summary (3 minutes) Summarize the key words, phrases and sentence patterns learned in this class on the blackboard, such as “clean up, cheer up, give out, volunteer, could, should, I hope to... You could...” Review the usage of modal verbs “could” and “should” for making suggestions. Emphasize the importance of volunteer work and encourage students to take part in volunteer activities in their daily lives. Step 8: Homework (2 minutes) Ask students to make sentences with the phrases they learned today, such as “help (to) do”, “want to do”, “learn to do”, “decide to do”, “how to do”, “volunteer to do”. Let students write a short passage about a volunteer activity they would like to join in the future, including what they will do, who they will help and why they want to do it. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
