Homework
Preview the conversation in 2d.
Do the exercises in students’ book.
This is the first period of the unit.During this period, teachers interact
with students through high-density questions according to the topic picture
in 1a, which is helpful for students to learn new vocabulary, and also help
Teaching students review the language content they have learned. When checking the
Reflection answers, teachers need not rush to judge right or wrong. They should let
students speak actively. At this stage, it is OK to understand sentences
without explaining for the time being so that students can accumulate more
perceptual knowledge in the stage of grammar perception.
