IV. Teaching procedures Step 1 Lead-in T: Hello, boys and girls. Last class we talked about different countries and we’ve got to know that Eddie’s

favourite home is the one next to the biggest restaurant. Today, let’s go on to talk about different homes around the world.

Step 2 Word study 1. Show pictures and learn the new words. T: When we talk about homes, we often think of the word “house”. Some people live in houses. But many other people, especially in the crowded city, live in such buildings. We call it “flat”.

T: We can often see buildings with many flats in the centre of city or town. T: Usually we can see houses around the city centre or even far away from the city, maybe “miles” away from the city centre. 10 miles equals about 16 kilometres. Some people live in such big houses miles from the city centre. If they are lucky enough, they may even live near the beach and the sea. It must be wonderful! 2. Learn different parts of a home. Follow a butterfly to different parts of a home and talk about the functions of these parts.

T: Now, let’s go near a house. Look, there is a big garden in front of the house. How beautiful! Here is a lovely butterfly. It wants to have a visit to the house. Let’s follow it. T: It’s the living room. We can also call it a sitting room. What do we usually do in the living room? T: It’s the dining room. What do people do in the dining room? T: Where has the butterfly gone? Oh, it’s in the kitchen now. What is the kitchen for? T: It’s a nice bedroom. Do you have your own bedroom? (Yes.) Oh, you are so lucky. You have your own bedroom. You don’t need to share your bedroom with others. (No.) Who lives in the bedroom with you? (My brother/sister.) Oh, that means you share a bedroom with your brother. T: Now, we are in the bathroom. What can we do in the bathroom? T: Now the butterfly is on the balcony. Do you have a nice balcony in your home? What do you usually do on the balcony? T: What a lovely butterfly! Thank you for showing us around the house.
