they were a child, then discuss in a group of four.

interview others. T can use the example in PPT P12 to show how
to do an interview.)

Before playing the recording, tell Ss that the conversation is
between a boy and a girl. Ask them to guess what the
conversation might be about.
(The class should know that the conversation has something to do
with the topic of comparing what used to be with the present.)
Tell Ss that they will have to listen for the exact sentences that
they read in their textbooks.

Post-listening

Ask Ss to write down five things about themselves. Find a partner
they have never worked with in the class. Share the five things both
of them have written down. Compare what they have written: Are
any the same? Are they all different?
Ask Ss to use Venn Diagram to make comparison between
themselves and their partners.
Step 3 Summary & Homework
Summary
Ask Ss to do the exercises from PPT P21-22.
Homework:
Preview the passage in Section B 2d.
Do the exercises in students’ book.
In this period, the learning contents expand from talking about past
appearance and personality to talking about likes and dislikes in former
Teaching time. So students practice many other words in listening and speaking. The
Reflection topic is still about their life in school. They will improve their capacity of
language organization and oral output while listening and speaking practice.
As usual, we can give them some written work to do after they practice
3listening and speaking.
We can give the work to use “get used to” and “used to” in order to get the
students to compare the differences between the two phrases.
