II. Teachi ng procedures:
Revision
1. We have learnt a lot about different outdoor activities. What are they? (swimming, hiking, campi ng, diving, cycling, skiing…) What do you like doing? What would you like to do when you grow up?
(Ask t wo pairs to talk about what they have learnt in the last lesson. The other students will listen to them and try to write down their answers in the proper boxes, e.g.)
S1 S2 S3 S4
I like…
I would like to…
If they can’t, teachers can give them an example (I like hiking best because I think it is very interesting and it’s good for our health. I also like swimming and diving. But I am not good at swimming. So I dare not to swim or dive in the water. In the future, I would like to have a swimming lesson and try to dive in the sea. I don’t like cycling at all. But I must ride a bike every day, or I will have to spend too much time on buses. I would like to drive a car in the future if I can.)
2. Ask Ss to share their answers with each other to see if they have got the right ones.
3. Ask Ss some questions about the table, e.g.:
What does … like doing?
