Expected outcomes

Pupils' activities
Teacher
T says: 'Today we review Units 6 to 10. Let's play Picture Guessing. Ask me a question to guess the picture.' T displays the first covered picture of a school.
Pupils
Ss listen and look at the picture, thinking of questions to ask.
Teacher
T uncovers the picture bit by bit. T models: 'Is it a computer room?' and then asks: 'Where is your school?' T calls on Ss to ask questions in turn.
Pupils
Ss ask questions like 'Is it in the city?' or 'How many classrooms are there?' Expected answers: 'It is in the village.' 'Yes, it is.' 'There are twelve classrooms.'
Teacher
T shows the picture of the beach and asks: 'Where were you last summer?' T asks one or two Ss to answer.
Pupils
Ss answer: 'I was at the beach last summer.' 'I was in Da Nang.' Ss say the answer aloud in full sentences.
Teacher
T praises Ss and writes the key pattern on the board: 'Where is your school? – It is in the village.' 'Were you at the campsite? – Yes, I was.' T introduces the lesson aim.
Pupils
Ss repeat the key sentences chorally and write the title 'Review 2' in their notebooks.
