Step 2.  Presentation

A.  Match the words and the activities.

Ask the students to turn to page 83, and look at the pictures in 1a.

Then,the teacher ask questions:

----What’s he doing?  (Picture 1)

----He’s making a telephone call.

(Help the students answer the question with body language .)

Ask and answer just like that, and finish 1a.(Ss can guess the meaning of doing homework, watching TV, cleaning, eating dinner and reading.)

The Ss read these V-ing words after the teacher.

B.  Play the video.

To make the Ss clear what they are learning in this class. Mr. Gong’s words do give the teacher a big hand.

(Write down the title of Unit 14 I’m watching TV on the blackboard and ask the Ss to read it.)

C.  Teach the Present Progressive.

1.  Introduction

Tell the Ss what the Present Progressive is. (现在进行时表示现在正在进行或发生的动作, 它的表现形式为Be Verbs + V-ing ---- 这也即为它的结构式.)

2.   Tell the difference

Write down the V-ing forms by another lines of go, watch, do, play and eat on the blackboard. Ask the Ss to have a look and find the difference between them. For example: go and going, watch and watching, do and doing, etc. Then, ask the Ss to read them again.

3.   Listen to the tape.

Let the Ss get ready to listen to the tape (paper and ball-point pen).

Check the answer:  2   4   1

4.   Activities.

The teacher acts several actions and say :”What am I doing?”, help Ss answer: ”I’m opening the door.”

(The other actions: look at someone, clean the window)

Write down the three sentences on the blackboard, and ask the Ss to pay attention to the important words underlined:

n   What am I doing?

n   I’m opening the door.

n   What am I doing?

n   I’m looking at him.

n   What am I doing?

n   I’m cleaning the window.
