Teaching Procedures	Tips
Step 1 Warming up
Game: Exchange the information Step 1: Prepare the following information about yourself: one physical trait that you used to have when you were younger one personality trait that you used to have one hobby that you used to like Step 2: You will be divided into several groups. Give a name to your group. Step 3: Your groups will be paired up, e.g. Group A with B, C with D. Step 4: Each of you need to interview one S from other group and find out the information you have prepared. Step 5: Go back to your group and exchange information with others. (Attention: Tell Ss that when one S shares the information, other person needs to take notes.T will pick a few Ss to share what they have learned and will ask for confirmation from those who have supplied the information.)
Step 2 Presentation & Practice
Grammar Focus Ask Ss to read the sentences in the chart. Show Ss PPT P10, ask them find out more sentences that contain “used to” in Section A. (Tip: T can encourage Ss to share their answers.) used to的用法 used to意为“过去常常”，用于表示过去习惯性的动作或存在的状态（强调与现在的对比，暗示现在不做了）。其中to为不定式符号，后面跟动词原形。used to只用于一般过去时态，没有人称和数的变化。 used to的句型结构 肯定句 主语 + used to + 动词原形（ + 其他） 否定句 主语 + used not to / didn’t use to + 动词原形 + 其他 一般疑问句 Did + 主语 + used to be / do + 其他？ 反义疑问句 主句 + didn’t + 人称代词？ 拓展 4a Ask Ss to write sentences about the past using used to. Answers: 2. My mom used to have curly hair. She didn’t use to have straight hair. 3.Jerry used to read books on European history. He didn’t use to read books on African culture. 4.Sandy used to teach British English. She didn’t use to teach American English. 4b Ask Ss to look at the information and write sentences about Emily. Answers: 1. Emily used to listen to pop music, but now she enjoys country music. 2. Emily used to watch scary movies, but now she hates scary movies. 3. Emily didn’t use to read a lot of books, but now she reads at least six books a year. 4c Ask Ss to think about what things they used to be afraid of and fill in the box in 4c, then interview their partners. (Tip: It is possible that Ss are not afraid of any of the five things listed. If this is the case, allow Ss to add two other items that they used to be afraid of and two others they are still afraid of. Their partners may also wish to use these new items.
Step 3 Summary & Homework
Summary Ask Ss to do the exercises from PPT P25-26. Homework Preview Section B 1a-1d. Do the exercises in students’ book.
Teaching Reflection	We always learn grammar when we have enough language knowledge. When dealing with grammar, we can get the students to conclude or sum up what they have learned in this unit and then learn the structure and the pattern drills. After they learn the main structure in the grammar focus frame, the students should practice in different activities. And we’d better give them some written work after speaking and reading.
