Now that we know the animals, let's learn how to describe them. Look at these words: big, small, strong, cute, scary. Can you match them with the animals?
‹#›
More Adjectives
beautiful
dangerous
friendly
funny
lazy
1.7.2013
Here are some more adjectives to describe animals: beautiful, dangerous, friendly, funny, lazy. Let's use these words to talk about the animals we like.
‹#›
What's Your Favorite Animal?
A: What's your favorite animal?
B: My favorite animal is...
B: I like... best.
1.7.2013
Now, let's learn how to ask someone about their favorite animal. The question is: "What's your favorite animal?" And you can answer: "My favorite animal is..." or "I like... best."
‹#›
Why Do You Like It?
A: Why do you like...?
B: Because they are... / it can...
Example:

1.7.2013
And if someone asks you why you like that animal, you can say: "Why do you like...?" And the answer is: "Because they are..." or "Because it can...". For example, "Why do you like monkeys? Because they are clever and funny."
‹#›
Pair Work: Talk About Your Favorite Animal
Talk about your favorite animal.
Use the sentences we learned.
You can use these words: cute, smart, friendly, beautiful...
1.7.2013
Now, it's your turn. Work with a partner and talk about your favorite animal. Use the sentences we just learned, and don't forget to use the adjectives to describe why you like it.
‹#›
Plural Nouns (Regular)
一般情况:直接加 -s。 (e.g., book → books)
以 s, x, ch, sh 结尾:加 -es。 (e.g., box → boxes)
以辅音字母 + y 结尾:变 y 为 i, 再加 -es。 (e.g., baby → babies)
1.7.2013
Now, let's focus on grammar. We're going to learn about plural nouns. For most nouns, we just add an 's' at the end. But for some nouns, we need to add 'es' or change the word a little. Let's look at the rules.
‹#›
Plural Nouns (Irregular)
Nouns ending in 'o'
Living things: add -es (e.g., potato → potatoes)
Non-living things: add -s (e.g., photo → photos)
Special changes
man → men, woman → women
child → children
sheep → sheep, deer → deer
1.7.2013
Some nouns have irregular plural forms. For example, 'man' becomes 'men', 'woman' becomes 'women', and 'child' becomes 'children'. Some nouns don't change at all, like 'sheep' and 'deer'.
‹#›
Fill in the Blanks
There are three _______ (dog) in the park.
I see many _______ (bird) in the tree.
These _______ (child) are playing games.
Answers: dogs, birds, children

Let's practice what we've learned. Fill in the blanks with the correct plural form of the nouns in brackets.
‹#›
Listening: Where are they going?
Where are the students?
Why are they there?
When should they be back?
Listen carefully and answer the questions.
1.7.2013
Now, let's do some listening practice. Look at the picture and listen carefully. Then answer the questions: Where are the students? Why are they there? And when should they be back?
‹#›
Listening: What animals do they like?
What animals does Yaming like? Why?
What animals doesn't he like? Why?
1.7.2013
Listen again, and this time, focus on Yaming's favorite animals. What animals does he like, and why? What animals doesn't he like, and why?
‹#›
Speaking: Talk About the Animals You Like and Dislike
A:What animals do you like?
B:I like... because they are...
A:What animals don't you like?
B:I don't like... because they are...
Now, work in groups and share your opinions!
1.7.2013
Now, let's talk about the animals you like and dislike. Use this conversation frame to help you. Work in groups and share your opinions.
‹#›
Pronunciation: /s/ or /z/?
Pronounce /s/
After voiceless consonants (e.g., cats, books)
Pronounce /z/
After voiced consonants and vowels (e.g., dogs, pens)
1.7.2013
Now, let's practice pronunciation. The plural 's' can be pronounced in two ways: /s/ or /z/. We say /s/ after voiceless consonants, like in 'cats' and 'books'. We say /z/ after voiced consonants and vowels, like in 'dogs' and 'pens'.
‹#›
Pronunciation: /ɪz/
Rule:
在 s, x, ch, sh 结尾的单词后发 /ɪz/。
Examples:
boxes
buses
1.7.2013
When a word ends with 's', 'x', 'ch', or 'sh', we add 'es' and pronounce it /ɪz/. For example, 'box' becomes 'boxes', and 'bus' becomes 'buses'.
‹#›
Game: Animal Charades
游戏规则:一个学生上台模仿一种动物,其他学生猜是什么动物。
1.7.2013
Let's play a fun game called Animal Charades. One student will come to the front and act like an animal, and the rest of us will try to guess what animal it is.
‹#›
Game: Guess the Adjective
游戏规则:老师说出一个形容词,学生快速指出教室中符合这个形容词的物品或同学。
1.7.2013
Another game! This one is called Guess the Adjective. I will say an adjective, and you need to quickly point to something or someone in the classroom that fits that word.
‹#›
Reading: About Pandas
Pandas are from China. They are black and white. They like to eat bamboo. Pandas are very cute, but they are also in danger. We should protect them.
Let's protect these lovely animals!
1.7.2013
Now, let's read a short passage about pandas. Pandas are very special animals from China. Let's learn more about them.
‹#›
Reading Comprehension

What do pandas eat?
Why are pandas in danger?
1.7.2013
After reading the passage, let's answer these questions. Where are pandas from? What do pandas eat? And why are pandas in danger?
‹#›
Language Points
be from:Pandas are from China.
live in:They live in Sichuan.
like to do sth.:They like to eat bamboo.
1.7.2013
Let's look at some important language points from the passage. We use 'be from' to talk about where something or someone comes from. We use 'live in' to talk about where someone lives. And we use 'like to do sth.' to talk about what someone enjoys doing.
‹#›
Writing: Describe Your Favorite Animal
