Step 1: Lead in

T: I, together with my son, went to visit my parents last week. We had a good time there. It’s a small village and I enjoyed the fresh air. We also went to the fields. My son was very interested in the insects; he knew lots of plants, too.

What did you do last week? Where did you go? Did you enjoy your time there? What happened to you?

(Ask some volunteers to introduce their activities in the late weeks, guiding them by the above questions. Remember to praise them for their performance. Then others will be encouraged to share their experiences. Try “pair work” later.)
