Teaching Procedures Tips
Step 1 Warming up
Ask Ss to learn the parts of the body and chant body song.
The parts of the body: nose, mouth, neck, stomach, legs, head,
eyes,
ears, arms, hands, foot(feet), back
The body song:
Everybody moves your body.
Nod your head and touch your face.
Touch your nose and close your eyes.
Touch your ears and clap your hands.
Raise your arms and look at your back.
Touch your stomach and tap your foot.
Sit down and move your legs.
Play the Bingo game and review the parts of the body.
1. We look with our eyes.
2. We listen with our ears.
13. We smell with our noses.
4. We walk with our feet.
5. He carries a big bag on his back.
6. We do eye exercises to protect our sight.
7. People sometimes shake hands when they meet for the first

Lead in
There are many patients in the hospital. Ask Ss to look at the
following pictures and describe the patients’ health condition.
T: What’ s the matter with her/him?
Ss: He has a sore throat. / He has a sore back. / She has a cold. /
He has a stomachache. / He has a toothache. / She has a cough.
Step 2 Presentation & Practice
Pre-listening
1a
Look at the picture. Write the correct letter [a-m] for
each part of the body.
Answers: h arm e back g ear i eye b foot a hand j head
l leg c mouth d neck m nose k stomach f tooth
(Tip: T can do this activity as a class or have Ss do this alone or
in pairs first before doing the activity as a class.)
While-listening
1b
Ask Ss to listen and look at the picture. Then number
the names.
T may want to point out some tricks that Ss can use before
listening to the recording: 1. Not all of the people in the picture are
2numbered, so Ss should focus more on listening for the activities of
the people who are numbered. 2. Ss can also limit the possible
choices of their answers by noting whether the name is male or
female.
Answers: Nancy 3 Sarah 1 David 2 Ben 5 Judy 4
Play the recording again and ask Ss to find out what’s
the matter.
Answers:
Conversation 1
Nurse: You don’t look well. What’s the matter, Sarah?
Sarah: I have a cold.
Conversation 2
Nurse: What’s the matter, David?
David: I have a stomachache.
Conversation 3
Nurse: What’s the matter, Ben?
Ben: I have a sore back.
Conversation 4
Nurse: What’s the matter, Nancy?
Nancy: I have a toothache.
Conversation 5

Show the video of 1b to Ss.
Post-listening
1c
Ask Ss to make conversations about the people in the
3picture.
A: What’s the matter with Judy?
B: She talked too much yesterday and didn’t drink enough water.
She has a very sore throat now.
Ask Ss to complete the table about other students’
problems and make conversations about others’ health
condition following the example in 1c.

B: She didn’t put on her jacket when it got windy. She has a
cold now.

he got
a stomachache last night.

B: He hurt himself when playing soccer the other day. Now he
has a really sore back.
A: What’s the matter with Nancy?
B: She didn’t sleep well last and it hurt a lot. She has a
toothache now.
Step 3 Language points learning
1. What’s the matter? 这是询问病人病情时最常用的问句，意思是
“怎么了?”，其后通常与介词with连用。类似的问句还有：
What’s wrong?
What’s wrong with you?
4What’s your trouble?
What’s the trouble with you?
What’s up?
Is there anything wrong with you?
2. 表示某种“病症，症状”用have a + n. 来表示。
（1）have a + 疾病（n.）
E.g. have a cough (咳嗽) have a cold (感冒) have a fever
(发烧)
（2）have a + 身体部位-ache
E.g. have a headache (头疼) have a toothache (牙疼)
have a stomachache (胃疼) have a backache (后背疼)
（3）have a sore + 身体部位
E.g. have a sore throat (嗓子疼) have a sore back (背疼)
3. She talked too much yesterday and didn't drink enough water. 她昨天说
话太多了又没有喝足够多的水。
too much的用法：
①作形容词词组，修饰不可数名词。
e.g. The students have too much homework.
②作副词词组，修饰动词。
e.g. Don't watch TV too much.
③作名词词组。
e.g. He has given me too much.
Step 4 Summary & Homework
5Summary
Ask Ss to do the exercises from PPT P33-34.
Homework:
Preview the conversation in 2d.
Do the exercises in students’ book.
This is the first period of the unit. The topic of the unit is about “health
problems and accidents” and we talk about the sentence pattern
“ What’s the matter?” that can be used to ask others’ health
condition. It’s necessary for students to learn some words about the
Teaching
parts of the body and the pattern “have a + n.” to describe the
Reflection
health problems. This lesson designs chanting, Bingo game, and
conversation. These activities can arouse students’ interest in learning
the topic of this unit. They cultivate students’ ability to listen, and
communicate in English and encourage them to speak English boldly.
