　　Show  the  students  how  to  write  a  letter  to  a  foreigner. And  they

are  supposed  to  write  a  letter  to  Charlie  telling  him  your  school

life  or  something  they  like.

Step 7.  Homework

    Finish  writing  the  letter  and  then  finish  the  exercises  on their workbook. P 58  Exercise 3

Step 1. Revision
　　Ask the students to do an exercise in order to review some of the new words they learnt or used in the previous text. ( workbook P 59 Exercise 2. Fill in the blank with one word. The first letter of each word is given to help the students. )
　　First let the students do it by themselves then check the answers in pairs. At last the teacher checks their answers)

Step 2. presentation ( language study )
　　Ask the students “ What questions do you usually ask when you want to get to know a person for the first time you meet ?” ( collect their suggestions and then write them on the blackboard.)
　　(1) What is your name?
　　(2) Where do you come from?
　　(3) What class( grade ) are you in ?
　　(4) How many people are there in your family ?
Then the teacher may help them get more questions in order to get to know a new friend:
　　(5) Where did you go during the summer holidays ?
　　(6) What did you do in the summer holidays ?
　　(7) Did you see any new ( interesting ) films ?
　　(8) Did you read ( buy any new books?
The teacher may just gives the students the key words, such as “ books, films, and the question words ( what, where, how, and the more the better. The teacher may let the students form new questions by the given key words.)

Step 3. Oral practice ( pair-- work )
　　The students are supposed to ask and answer the above questions They can also talk about their plan for the next Sunday Then the students are supposed to say something about their partners to the whole class.

Step 4. Listen to the dialogue and then act it out.
　　Ask the students to listen to the dialogue. They are supposed to find out how to show others your love or best wishes when two people are having a talk with each other.
The useful expressions: Sb. sends his best wishes ( to you ).
Then the students are supposed to make up a similar dialogue and they can also use the useful expressions they learnt the day before. So three or four students form a group to make up the dialogue.
Introduce them some new expressions with the same meaning:
　　( the third part of Lesson 3 )
　　(1) Give my love to your sister ( family, brother……)
　　(2) Send my regards to your mother. ( parents )

Step 5. Language study
　　(1) When they use “Send my love to sb.” they must use it for family members or their very close friends.
　　(2) When they use “ Send my best wishes (regards) to sb.” they can use it freely but not for very intimate people.
　　(3) Usually when we can use the present continuous tense for future time. Although this tense is not a syllabus item, it is extremely common in English.
For example: What are you doing tomorrow? (It means what will you do tomorrow? )

Step 6. Doing exercise
