Teaching Procedures
STEP 1 Showing the pictures of tigers and wolves
As we have learned a lot about animals in the unit, in this part we can directly come to the two animals we are going to talk about. Show the pictures of tigers and wolves one by one and encourage the students to speak out what they know about them.
STEP 2 Listening and completing
Get the students to listen and complete the fact sheets.
Appearance: the largest living cat (look like a cat), big and strong, bright eyes, yellow fur with black stripes.
Ability: can run fast, good at hunting other animals for food,
Character: usually they live alone, (if they have babies) live as a family until baby tigers are 2-3 years old.
Food: hunt other animal for food
Dangers: Hunters hunt them for their fur (to make clothes etc.) and bones (to make medicine)
Appearance: dog-like, not very big, gray fur (about 5-6 cm long)

Character: be friendly toward/ to each other, work as a team to hunt, never attack people, do not kill for fun
Food: animal, insects, snails, vegetables
Danger: loss of living areas, no home (have nowhere to live) , no food (have nothing to eat)
STEP 3 Explaining the bold-faced words and expression
Explain the bold-faced words and expressions above to the students. Pay special attention to: ‘yellow fur with black stripes’, ‘live alone’ ‘hunt…for…’ and ‘loss of the living areas’. It is important because students may need these to write or talk about tigers, wolves as well as other animals.
STEP 4 Talking about the two animals
Get the students to talk about the two animals looking at the two facts sheets. Encourage them students to start like this.
Tigers are the largest living cat in the world…..
Wolves are dog-like animals. They are not very big…..
STEP 5 Completing the letter in Part A2
Get the students to complete the letter in Part A2, Page 69.
First, let the students complete the passage by themselves.
Then, get the students to check the answers in pairs.
Afterwards, check the answers in class. The teacher can get two students to read out the facts about tigers and wolves, while the others correcting their answers.
Finally, get the students to read the passage aloud.
STEP 6 Underlining the important phrases
Invite the students to underline the important phrases by themselves. Explain some of the most important ones, like ’write to sb. about doing sth.’ and ‘made sth from sth.’.
STEP 7 Show the students some pictures of the animals we have leaned. Encourage them to talk about the animals. They can talk about their appearance, ability, character, food and danger.
Encourage them to ask more people to help protect the animals.
