Have you ever seen so many kites?
How do you like them?
Have you ever tried flying kites ?
...

Step 2Presentation & Practice
| |
- This activity is to review the target language for talking about what things are made of. If feasible, the T may bring one or two kites to class and have Ss identify the materials used to make those kites. Alternatively, the T may ask Ss prior to this lesson to bring any kites they might have for this lesson.
- Ss look at the pictures in 1a and the T can ask some questions such as “Are they bees? Are they flies? Is this a butterfly? ” to help Ss to review the learned words. Ss finish the task in 1a and share their answers by making conversations using the target language structure in pairs.
- Suggested answers: paper, silk, nylon, wood/bamboo
- Before-listening, the T can ask Ss to look through the context in 1b to predict. The T may use these prompts:
- If Laura wants to know what Zheng Yun did on his vacation,
- If Laura wants to know what Zheng Yun thinks about Weifang,
- The T can play the recording and Ss finish the task in 1b. Then the T can invite some Ss to share answers by asking the following questions and then the T can make feedback.
- What is Laura trying to find out more about?
- Does Zheng Yun tell Laura about a kite festival or how to make a
- Why did you choose that answer?
- After Ss have completed activity 1b, the T may want to ask Ss to listen to the recording again and identify the superlatives used to describe the kites. (best/highest)
- This activity is to give Ss practice in listening for specific information. The T can ask Ss to look through the sentences in 1c before playing the recording .Ss finish the task in 1c and the T can nominate Ss to share their answers .
- This activity is to give Ss further practice in listening for specific information. Before playing the recording again, the T can have Ss work in pairs to predict answers in 1d so that they can be more focused when listening. Then the T present the correct answers.
- 1.kites 2.April 3.all over the world
- 4.competitions 5.silk or paper; drawings.
- To provide Ss with speaking practice using the target language, the T can invite Ss to role-play the conversations between Laura and Zheng Yun. Or make them work in closed pairs. The T can observe the Ss’ performance and provide support when necessary.
- The T may have Ss work in pairs to make a conversation about other festivals they have been to, then invite a few pairs to role-play their conversations for the class.
