Teaching Procedures	Tips
Step 1 Warming up & Pre-listening	本节课的warm up就相当于pre-listening，二者可以用同一个活动。
Pair work / Group work Step 1: Ask Ss to pair up (or work in a group of four) and share with their partner(s) of what they usually have in their schoolbags. Step 2: T can give Ss some examples (e.g. stationery, pencil bag, books, learning materials, homework).
Step 2Presentation & Practice	此处虽然列出了很多情态动词，但是可以告诉学生我们这一单元要重点学习的是must, might, could, can’t。
While-listening 2a Play the recording, ask Ss to listen and write down the things in the schoolbag. (Tips: Before playing the recording, tell Ss that although this conversation is short, it contains a bit of information. Encourage them to take as many notes as possible. This will also be useful for them when they do activity 2c.) Answers: 1. T-shirt  2. hair band  3. tennis balls 2b Before Ss attempt this exercise, ask them if they still remember what modal verbs are. Modal verbs show the condition of a verb — e.g. ability, necessity, possibility — and must always be used with a main verb. Ask Ss to list all the modal verbs they can remember. e.g. may, might, must, will, would, can, could, shall, should, need, ought to Get Ss refer to the modal verbs listed in the textbook. Take them through it before they attempt this exercise. Play the recording again and ask Ss to fill in the blanks. Answers: 1. must 2. can’t 3. could 4. might 5. Must Show PPT P11 and ask Ss to do the supplementary exercises. Post-listening 2c Using the notes that they had taken in activity 2a, get pairs of Ss to create their own conversations.
Step 3Presentation & Reading
Pre-reading Show the picture of 2d to Ss. Tell them that Linda has lost her schoolbag, ask them to infer how Linda might feel. While-reading Play the recording, ask Ss to listen and role-play the conversation. Post-reading Create a context for Ss and ask them to make conversations. Suppose you and your friend find a book (or something else) in the cafeteria and you need to find the owner. Make a conversation and make inference about who the book belongs to.
Step 4Language points learning
attend, join, join in和take part in的区别： attend常指参加或出席正式的活动或场合，如婚礼、会议等。 join多指参加某个组织、团体，并成为其中的一员。 join in多指参加活动、加入游戏等。 take part in指参加群众性活动、会议等，往往指参加者持有积极的态度，并起一定的作用。 valuable与worth的区别： valuable常指物质、金钱方面，强调物品贵重、珍贵。 worth既指物质上的， 也指精神上的， 强调价值。“be worth + 钱数”意为“值……钱”；be worth doing sth. 意为“值得做某事”。 valuable作表语时可与介词to构成短语be valuable to sb.，意思是“对某人来说有价值”。 pick up有很多意思，常见的有“拾起；捡起”“（开车）接人”。 pick up是典型的“动副型”短语，代词it / them作宾语时，要放在pick与up中间
Step 5 Summary & Homework
Summary Ask Ss to do the exercises from PPT P24-25. Homework: Preview the passage in 3a. Do the exercises in students’ book.
Teaching Reflection	The most important thing in this lesson is to get students to practice making inference and distinguishing the meaning of “must”, “could”, “might”, “can’t”. During the class, we need to ask students to pay attention to the sentences which used the modal verbs to make inferences. Besides, we need to create a context to help students practice the target language in the class.
