Teaching Procedures

Step I Revision

First revise the content about last unit, like ask and answer What color is your pencil-box? It is white. What color is your bag? It is black. What about your hat? It is black, too. The teacher can lead the Ss to the topic of this unit clothes.

Step II Presentation

Go on with the question about color of the clothes, like ask the Ss What color is the dress by pointing to a picture of a dress, the Ss can answer the right color, and get the meaning of the word dress, other new words of clothes as sweater, shirt, skirt, blouse, trousers and gloves can also be taught in this way.

Step III Practice

Let the students practice in pairs upon the easy sentence structure: What color is A’s sweater? It’s light brown. What color are B’s trousers? They are dark blue. Remind the students pay attention to the using of light and dark.

Step IV Act

Let the Ss act before the class about the color of their clothes, like Part 2, lesson 53 in pairs. Be sure they can use the possessives correctly, and encourage them as much as possible. In this way the Ss practice the new words and can keep them in mind easily at the same time.

Step V Presentation

The teacher practice with the Ss on dialogues first about clothes then discuss about the possession of the clothes like:

T: Hello A, what color is your shirt?

S: It’s white.

T: Then what color is B’s blouse?

S: It’s yellow.

T: Whose blouse is red?

S: C’s (blouse) is red…

And the other Ss begin to practice this dialogue in pairs, teacher can check them by acting in front of the class.

Step VI Presentation

After the practice of the key sentences, the teacher change the sentence Whose is this shirt into Whose shirt is this. Tell the Ss Whose can be either followed with a noun or nothing, but the meanings are the same, that is to say it is used first as an adjective or then a noun.

Step VII Listen, read and say

Play the tape about Part 2, make the Ss repeat and after that, let them answer some easy questions about the dialogues, like Whose is this shirt? Is it Li Lei’s? Whose shirt is this on earth? Be sure the Ss grasp the point view of the dialogue, and let them practise it in pairs, then get several groups of the Ss to act before the class. Encourage the Ss who act well.

Step VIII Listen, read and say

SB Page 67, Part 2, do the same as Step VII. Add a new content, that is the use of the phrase put … on, a noun can be use either before on or after on, but a pronoun can only be used before the word on

Step IX Practice and act

Divide the class in half. Let the Ss in one of the class work in pairs to practise the dialogue in Part 1. The Ss in the other half can practise the dialogue in Part 2. After they have had a few minutes to prepare, get some pairs from each half to present to the class, without books this time. Encourage them to put expression in their voices, to use appropriate actions and to use real items for props. They should act, not just say!

Step X Listening

Listening Cassette Lesson 54. Name the four characters in the dialogue for the Ss- Mr. Wang, Jim, Li Ming, and Lucy. Play the tape twice. The Ss listen and then answer the questions in Wb Lesson 54, Ex1.
