Teaching Procedures Tips
Step 1 Free Talk
The T can ask Ss to brainstorm kinds of family rules they have
to follow at home and talk about these rules with partners. The
T may use these prompts:
What rules do you have at home?
Do you have any rules about eating, sleeping, housework,
homework, or making friends?
For weak Ss, the T can present some related pictures about
family rules and the target sentence patterns to guide them to
1speak as much as they can. Then elicit their opinions on these
rules:
Do you agree with these rules? Why or why not?
Which of these rules do you think should be changed? Why?
Step 2 Presentation
3a
This activity is to prompt Ss to think about rules that they do
not agree with, so as to prepare them for the subsequent
writing activity.
The T nay have Ss work individually to complete the chart
first before asking Ss to discuss what they have written with a
partner. Encourage Ss to offer suggestions to improve each
other’s notes.

Step 3 Writing
3b
The T make Ss read the expressions in 3b at first and then
finish the writing task. Then the T can invite some Ss to
share their writings and make the assessments.
Suggested Answer:
Dear Diary,
I do not agree with the rule that I must be home for dinner every day. This
is because the rule affects my social life. It takes away opportunities for
me to spend time with my friends. As a result, my life is quite boring
sometimes. I think I should be allowed to have dinner with my friends once
in a while.
For example, I would like to hang out with my classmates after dinner on
some Fridays. I hope my parents will allow me to do this if I promise not
to stay out too late and if there is no important family activity on those
2days.
Step 4 Self Check
The part of Self Check is to provide a comprehensive review of
key vocabulary and functions presented in the unit. Before
asking Ss to do activity 2, the T may want to focus on modal
verbs in the passive voice.
Note:
·Active voice — Modal verb + bare infinitive
e.g.Parents should allow their teenagers to make some decisions
on
their own.
·Passive voice — Modal verb + be + past participle
e.g. Teenagers should be allowed to make some decisions.

Ss can be asked to finish the task on their own and check
their answers in pairs.
Suggested answers:

This is a good place for tourists to take photos.

help pay for their studies
get ears pierced
I would like to get my ears pierced when I am twenty-one
years old.
achieve my dream
I hope to achieve my dream of becoming a doctor.
go shopping
I go shopping with my parents every Saturday afternoon.
After Ss finish the task, the T can ask them to brainstorm
more common collocations with the six verbs (take /do /get
/achieve /make /go). For example：
achieve success/wealth/popularity
go shopping/dancing/swimming/camping
make a choice/a decision/a mistake
do housework/chores/some cleaning/homework
take photos/take a seat/ take care of
get good grades/get things done...

a few Ss to read aloud these sentences and translate into
Chinese.
