elicit the people’s names from Ss . Ss can be encouraged to say
out more names in this unit. The T can also encourage Ss to
review what the differences between Chinese names and English
names.
Step 2 Presentation & Reading
2a
The activity is to provide writing practice with the target
language. Before Ss look for the answers in the unit, ask them
to try to do the activity from memory first. Ss often read
material or listen to conversations, but they do not necessarily
try to remember what they have heard or read.
Answers:
1Male: Tom Bob Jack Paul Jiang Tao Alan
Eric John Bill Dale
Female: Cindy Li Lan Jenny Linda Mary
Sally
Kate Jane Jiang Shan Helen Lin Fang
2b
The activity is to provide reading practice with the target
Language. Before reading, the T can ask Ss to observe the
two pictures and answer the following questions:
How many people can you see in the first picture?
How many people can you see in the second picture?
What else can you see in the second picture?
Then the T can ask Ss to read the passage quickly and do
the task
in 2a individually . The T can check answers by asking the
following questions:
What’s her grandfather’s/grandmother’s/father’s/mother’s/sister’s/
cousin’s name?
What are her brothers’ names?
Does the dog have a name?
Answers:
Jenny Alan Mary Bob Eric Cindy Helen Coco
2c
The activity is to provide Ss with reading comprehension
practice using the target language. The T can ask Ss to read
the passage carefully and complete the sentences individually.
Then ask some Ss to share their answers by reading the full
sentences. At last the T can explain the key language points to
Ss and play the recording of the passage. Ss can read after the
recording and the T can pay attention to their pronunciation
and intonation.

before scanning a reading passage to find the answer. One way to
do this is to ask Ss to cover the reading passage with a piece of
paper and to try and quickly guess the answers to the
questions.After they have done this,they can either check their
answers with a partner or immediately scan the reading passage for
the correct answers.
2c
To make the task more challenging, the T can ask Ss to
