Warm-up: Quick Questions Chain
Aims
Ss recall the five topics and the question forms they learned in Units 1 to 5.
Content
T and Ss play a quick chain game: T says one topic word (e.g. 'Tet'), and the next S asks a question on that topic with the correct question word. Ss use the question forms: Did your family...?, Will you...?, What will you do...?, How does...?, What is the matter?
Expected outcomes
Ss use at least five correct questions from the five topics and show they are ready for the communicative station.
Procedure
Teacher's activities
Pupils' activities
Teacher
T shows a picture of each topic on the board and explains the game: 'Look at the picture, say the topic word, then ask a question with the correct question word.'
Pupils
Ss look at the pictures and listen carefully to the instructions.
Teacher
T starts with 'Tet' and asks the first S to make a question. T gives feedback on pronunciation and question form.
Pupils
Ss take turns in a chain. Example: S1: 'Tet.' S2: 'Will you decorate your house at Tet?' S3: 'Children's Day.' S4: 'What will you do on Children's Day?'
Teacher
T asks two or three Ss to say the question they made and checks their word order.
Pupils
Ss say their questions aloud. Expected answer: 'Did your family take a boat trip?'
Teacher
T reviews the question words: Did, Will, What, How, What should. T says the lesson is about using these questions to talk and write about our lives.
Pupils
Ss repeat the question words and write the new title 'Extension activities' in their notebooks.
