2.　　　 Ants and spiders are insects________.

1.　　　 Anna is an energetic_______ girl, she never feels tired.

2. Read the three reviews in Activity 3a again and try to remember the new words and expressions in them.

Reflection (to be written immediately after the class)

Blackboard Design

1. Rewrite the reviews and make sure that there will be no mistakes in them.

7. What good feature does the movie have?

3) Teacher gives the necessary help

Give some explanation on the problems which are hard to understand for the children, such as, entertainment means fun, feature means special part of sb./sth., very different from the others, easy to recognize or remember, and wife is the opposite word of husband, A husband and a wife make up a family. And tell the children the plural form of wife is wives.

Read the instructions to the students, and then ask them which sentences we should circle and which ones we should underline.

4) Check the answers with the students.

Teach the other two reviews with the same way.

Step4.Practice

1) Deal with the chart

Read the instructions to the children first. Ask one of them if he or she knows what we will do to make sure each one knows the tasks of this activity. Look at the chart now. We see two new words in the boxes, pros and cons. Pro means in favor of and con means against. We have to find out the pros and cons of the reviewers in Activity 3a and fill in the blanks with proper sentences. Have a look at the sample answer and try to write out the other answers, using the information from the reviews in Activity 3a.( Move around the classroom while the children are writing to see if they can write out the right answers, offering help as needed. )

2) Check the answers by asking several students to read their answers to the class.

　Writing the answers on the blackboard as the students read makes it easy for the whole class to check the answers.

Step5. Pairwork

1) Make preparations

T: Decide what review you will write first, a review of a book, a CD or a movie?

Write down the name of the first note by using the capital letters. Let them think it over for a while and ask some ones the names of their articles. Next write a list of questions you plan to answer in your review.

2) Check answers

Ask several of them to read their passages to the class after they all have finished. Get the others to help correct the mistakes while they are reading. Let them exchange their reviews with their partners. Help each other with the errors.

Step6. Groupwork

1) Talk about what is happening in our city next Monday. Ask a question like: what will happen in our city next Monday? Ask the students to work in groups of four to complete the work. Ask each other questions like, Do you know what will happen in our city next Tuesday? Is there a football match in our city next Saturday? Is Song Zuying coming to sing songs at the biggest theatre in our city next Friday? etc.

2) Let the students tell the event which is happening, such as, A VIP will visit our city and a new movie will be on show.

Tell them to fill in the boxes, using the phrases with relative clause.

(For example, a football match which is between Dalian Football Team and our City Team. If they don’t know what will happen, they can invent events they would like to go to. Ask some groups to share the events with the class. Then have the students discuss in groups of four again. )

Step 7.Discussing

1) Let them discuss what they would prefer to do together this time. Help them to express preferences with the target language. For example:

S_A: What would you prefer/like/love to do together?

S_B: Let’s go to see the new movie that was directed by Zhang Yimou.

S_C: Why not go to watch the great football match that will be between two famous teams? It’s on Friday evening. We can have a great weekend together.

S_D: No, we’d better go to…

2) After the discussion, let some groups report the results to the class. Help them to use sentences with relative clause in their reports. Help them to say in correct sentences.
