Step II Today we are going to learn Uint 8 How was your school trip?

During this unit we will learn more ways to talk about things that happened yesterday, last week or last year. Now I’d like to ask some questions about things you did yesterday or last week.

Warming – up:

Ask different students questions about things they did yesterday or last week using verbs they have already studied.

Ask the students to give the short answers, Yes, I did . No, I didn’t .Yes, I was. No, I wasn’t. Use these verbs: do/did, is/was, are/were, buy/bought, go/went, and see/saw.

Review the present and past of some verbs students have already studied. Remember to use only these verbs: do/did, is/was, are/were, buy/bought, go/went, and see/saw.

Listening carefully and circle only the things you hear on the recording .

Check the answers.

Step VI 1c Pairwork

Ask students to look at the picture in Activity 1a. Then point out the sample comversation in Activity 1c. Ask two students to read it to the class.

Say, Now work with a partner. Make your own conversations about the people in the picture.

Ask several pairs to present one or more of their converwations to the class.

Step VII Game

Divide the class into two teams. Name one team “past”and the other “present”. The “past ”team will talk about things that happened last week or last year. The “present”team will talk about things that happen every day. The “past ”team starts by saying a sentence. The “present”team has to change the sentence into a “present”sentence. For example, I went swimming yesterday becomes I go swimming every day. The “present”team to change. Each team gets one point for changing a sentence correctly.

Step VIII Summary

Today we have learned how to talk about what you did on your last school trip. This is about something happened in the past. And now we know how to say it in English. We have to work hard every day then we could make progress every day.
