3. Short practice: Make oral sentences according to the table to practice expressions about the turning point.

2. Students finish the charity report independently, and are reminded to use the structure and expressions learned in this lesson.

reread → check each part → read with a partner → revise
3. The teacher walks around the classroom and offers individual guidance to students who have difficulties with vocabulary, sentence patterns or structure.
Step5:Sharing & Evaluation

3. Students exchange their works in groups, evaluate each other’s writing and learn excellent expressions.
