There are many ways to teach immersion reading. Here are some step-by-step instructions for one way to teach the reading in this lesson. Also see "Teaching Techniques" at the back of this teacher's guide for more general information about teaching readings.

Step 1: Check to see if the students have previewed the text as required.  Ask if they have any questions. Encourage other students to try to answer the questions. As a quick review, ask students to name the words they know for different kinds of vehicles.

Step 2: Play the audiotape.

Step 3: Depending upon how much time you have you may divide the class into small groups. Ask each group to think about, discuss and then write an e-mail in response to Jenny's e-mail to Li Ming. if there is time, ask some groups to share their writings with the rest of the class.

VERBS (20 MINUTES)

Review the irregular verbs in this unit: drive, ride and sly. See "Teaching Techniques" at the back of this teacher's guide for recommended methods of teaching verbs.

Review the verb can, which is also in this unit.

This is a special verb, like might.  The students learned the verb "might' in Level 1 of junior school.

Do they remember what might means? Write this list on the blackboard:

I go. I might go.

He goes. He might go.

We go. We might go.

I run. I might run.

He runs. He might run.

We run. We might run.

Now ask for volunteers to write the same phrases with the word "can."

I can go.

He can go.

We can go.

I can run.

He can run.

We can run.

What do the phrases mean? "I    (verb)" describes what you are doing now. "I might      " expresses uncertainty. You might do something, but you might not. "1 can" expresses an ability. If you can do something, you are able to do it.

Sometimes "can" expresses permission. For example, you might ask your parents: "Can I go to the cinema?" If they permit you to go, they might say: "Yes, you can."
