T: let’s try to remember what we learned yesterday. We talked about Li Ming’s school. In this lesson, we will talk about something new.

(Take out the banana, book and a piece of clothes of the bag)

T: Can anyone guess why I have brought these things? What is the connection between these things? Please guess. Look, this is my red blouse, I’ve told you I like red very much. And the book, it’s my birthday present last year. Yes, this is a banana. I often buy bananas because I like eating bananas.

Ss: You like all of them!

T: Very good, you got it!

2. New lesson

Step 1: lead in

(Show the three things )

T: These are the things I like best. Next I want to know more about you.

Step 2: Discussion before the new lesson

T: Look at the questions in “Think About It!” and discuss about them.

(introduce the questions to the Ss and give them five minutes to discuss)

T: All right! Time for me to know how well you know about your friends. S1, who is your best friend?

S1: Wang Gang.

T: What do you know about him?

S1: He likes basketball very much.

T: What about you, S2?

S2: My best friend is my cousin, she likes school.

T: Good! S3, talk about the favourite photo of yourself, please. When was it taken?

S3: Just in the summer holiday.

T: Good! What about you, S4? When was your favourite photo taken? And where?

S4: It was taken in Beijing last year. My father took the photo for me.

Step 3: Discussion about the picture in the textbook

T: Look at the picture in your books and let’s talk about it: what is in the girl’s hands? What is she doing?

(introduce the word “wish” to the students and make sure they know the meaning of “photo”)

Step 4: Further discussion

Ask about the title of this lesson: Why is the lesson called “Many faces, One picture?”

Step 5: listen and find the answer

Ask the Ss to listen to the tape and find the right answer; the answer is in the text. Check the answer with the Ss:

Answer: Everyone brings a photo of him or her. We put them together and make a big picture of our class. There are many faces of the students in the big picture.

Step 6: Project 1: Make a class picture

Make sure the Ss understand what they must do in the project. Explain what a collage is. (in Chinese if necessary) A collage is a picture made of many little pictures.

T: Draw a picture of yourself if you don’t have a photo. Write down at least three sentences about yourself on a small piece of paper. That’s your name card. Of course, our cards are better.
