Step 1 Revision

1 Revise, using flash cards, the new words learnt in Lesson 5.

2 Play the I can see game, as in Lesson 5,Step 5.

Step 2 Presentation

Draw a picture of a school on the Bb.

Show a flash card or picture of a bus and say Jim comes to school by bus.

Ss listen and repeat. Teach by bike/car and on foot in the same way. Explain that on is used with foot because people walk on their feet! Note that travel phrases like these have no articles or plurals.

Introduce the word usually. Say Jim usually comes to school by bus, etc. Pay attention to the pronunciation of usually/'ju:{u+li/.

Ss：I usually come to school by bike.

T：(holding a flashcard of a pair of feet) Ann

Ss：Ann usually comes to school on foot.

(You could also accept Ann usually walks to school).

Step 4 Practice

SB page 6, Part 1.Speech Cassette Lesson 6.

Listen to the tape and repeat. Practise the dialogue. Then pairwork： get the Ss to make a dialogue for each picture, using the one in the book as a model.

Ask some pairs to act out their dialogues.

Step 5 Ask and answer

SB page 6, Part 2. Ask some individual Ss the question as a model. Then Ss ask their partners the same question in pairs. Finally ask some Ss to report their answers to the class, e.g. My friend comes from Sydney, Australia. His family go home every year by plane.

Step 6 Listening

Wb Lesson 6, Ex. 2. Listening Cassette Lesson6. Ask the Ss How do the six children come to school? Play the tape two or three times, if necessary, for the Ss to find the answers.
