Teaching plan for Lesson 62

Step 1 Revision
1. Revise What’s the weather like? It’s hot/cool/cold using the pictures. Ask It’s (spring).What’s the weather like today?

2. Revise the four seasons. Ask What’s the weather like in spring? Etc.

Step 2 Presentation
Revise You need to …. Show the pictures and sayL”cold” picture) It’s very cold. You need to wear warm clothes. Put on your coat. (“hot” picture) It’s very hot. You need to wear cool clothes. Revise take off by saying Take off your coat. Repeat using It’s best to …. And Why don’t you…? Tell the Ss to make a sentence starting with You need to…. E.g.

T: It’s cold.
       S: You need to wear warm clothes./Why don’t’ you put on your coat/sweater?
       T: It’s hot.
       S: Why don’t you take off your coat/ sweater? Etc.
Repeat using It’s best to….  And  Why don’t you…?

Step 3 Practice

SB page 62, Part 1. Speech Cassette Lesson 62. Play the tape for the Ss to listen and repeat.

Remind them of the meaning of take off. Point out the use of isn’t it. Perform a short drill:

T: Very cold.

S1:It’s very cold today, isn’t it?

S2: Yes, it is./ No, it isn’t.

T: Very warm.

S1: It’s very warm today, isn’t it?

S2: Yes, it is./No, it isn’t.

Then the Ss practise the dialogues in pairs. See who can act them out without the book!

Explain the meaning of the tag questions.

Step 4 Presentation

Tell the Ss to look at the map if the world(See page 67 of SB2). Ask What countries can you see? Help the Ss to answer.

Ask a Student to come to the front. Point to him and say This is Bruce. He’s from Australia. Present this dialogue (help the student to answer)

T: Your name’s Bruce, isn’t it?

B: Yes, it is.

T: You’re from Australia, aren’t you?

B: Yes, I am.
Ask more Ss to come to the front. (Sue from England; Li Ning from China, etc.) Ask them similar questions, then ask the class: He’s from China, isn’t he? Etc.

Get the Ss to give negative answers too: She’s from the USA, isn’t she?------No, she isn’t1  Get a student to ask the questions, then the Ss can ask and answer (both in affirmative and negative ways ) in pairs.

Step 5 Explanation

1. It’s very cold today, isn’t it?
在称述句后加上一个意思与之相反的简短问句，这种句子叫反意疑问句, 表示说话人对所陈述的事情不肯定，想通过对方的回答来判断。 构成分为两类：

（1）前一部分为肯定式，后一部分为否定式。

（2）前一部分为否定式，后一部分为肯定式。两部分的时态要一致。
对于第一种句型的回答与一般疑问句的回答方式一样。对于第二种句型的回答方法则同中文表达方法不同，关于回答 "Yes"，还是 "No" ,英语取决于后面的答句是肯定还是否定，后面的答句是肯定的句子，选用 "Yes" ,后面的答句是否定的句子，

2 why don’t you ? "你为何不？” 表示一种建议，简略的说法为：why not+动词原形。
