Step 1: Warming-up and Revision

Teacher: Good morning, class! How was your day so far? Before we start today's new content, let's quickly go over what we learned in the last class. Who can tell me something about country music? What is its origin and what is it usually about? Raise your hands, please.

Student 1: Country music comes from the southern states of America. It's about belonging to a group and the good old days when people were kind and trusted each other.

Teacher: Excellent! You remembered it very well. Now, can anyone recall the story of Sarah we read about? What was her dream?

Student 2: Sarah used to fight with her family. She became a fan of country music. Her dream was to visit Nashville, and Garth Brooks is a famous country singer she admires.

Teacher: Great job! Now, let's do a little vocabulary review. I'll say a word related to our previous topic, and you give its definition or use it in a sentence. First word: “used to”.

Student 3: “Used to” is used to talk about something that happened regularly in the past but doesn't happen now. For example, I used to play basketball every weekend, but now I'm too busy with my studies.

Teacher: Perfect! Next word: “belong to”.

Student 4: “Belong to” means something is the property of someone or someone is a member of a group. This schoolbag belongs to my little brother.

Teacher: Well done! Now that we've refreshed our memory, let's move on to today's new learning journey in Unit 8, Section B, 3a - Self Check.

Step 2: 3a - Reading and Writing

Teacher: Look at the task in 3a on your textbook. Here, we are going to write a review of a book, a movie, or a CD you really like. First,

let's think about some key elements we should include in a review. What do you think are important?

Student 5: We should talk about what it is, like whether it's a book, movie, or CD.

Teacher: Right. And what else?

Student 6: We need to say why we like it, maybe the story, the music, or the acting.

Teacher: Exactly. Also, we can mention some details about it, such as the main characters in a book or movie, or the best songs in a CD. Now, take a few minutes to think about the book, movie, or CD you want to review. Make some simple notes if you like. (Students think and make notes)

Teacher: Now, let's start writing. But before you fully write the review, let's look at the example given in the textbook together. Read it silently and see how the writer structures the review. (Students read the example)

Teacher: What did the writer do first in the example?

Student 7: First, the writer introduced what it is. It's a book named To Kill a Mockingbird.

Teacher: Correct. And then?

Student 8: Then, the writer talked about the main characters and the story briefly.

Teacher: Good. And finally?

Student 9: Finally, the writer explained why he/she liked the book.

Teacher: Perfect. Now, you can start writing your own review following this structure. You can start like this: “I really love [name of the book/movie/CD]. It is [a book/a movie/a CD] about [a brief introduction].” (Students start writing)

Teacher: While you are writing, I'll walk around and offer help if
