二． 教学展示与探究：
STEP 1 Learning about more animals
Show students some pictures of animals they have already come across. And then tell them we are going to learn about more animals. Show pictures and ask the students to give the names of the animals. Encourage them to speak out whatever they know about the animals.
PICTURES NAMES SOMETHING ABOUT IT
（zebra） It is a kind of horse. However, it has black and white stripes all over its body. We have got ‘zebra crossings’ on the roads.
（lion） It is the king of the beasts (兽). It kills small animals for food.
（polar bear） It lives in a very cold place. Usually, it has snow-white fur all over. It can swim and dive very well. It catches fish for food in icy water.
（tortoise） It always carries a heavy shell, so it walks very slowly. However, it can live up to 150 years.
（giraffe） It is the tallest animal in the world because of its long neck. It can easily eat the tree leaves. However, there’re only 7 bones in it long neck.
（fox(foxes) ） It looks like a dog but smaller. It is very clever. Its fur looks beautiful, so hunters kill it for its fur. They use it to make clothes and scarves.
（camel） It lives in the desserts. It is called ‘Boat of the Dessert’. They can stay in the dessert for a long time because it has one/ two humps.
（monkey） It is a kind of lovely and clever animal. It likes eating fruit. It lives in the trees and can easily jump for one tree to another.
（wolf (wolves) ） It is covered with grey fur. It looks like a dog. They live in groups and hunt for food together.
The students may talk about the animals using only one sentence. However, when we put all they ideas together, we will get pretty much. So it is also very important to show the students how to organize their ideas.
What does it look like?
Describe their appearance( size, eyes, colour).
What can it do? / What does it eat?
Where does it live?
By following the questions, it may be easier for the students to collect more ideas.
STEP 2 Completing Part B
Get the students to complete Part B, Page 63. Ask the students to do it by themselves. If students get some problems, go and help them. It must put clearly that some animals may eat more than one kind of food. For example, the students may be amazed to find that wolves also eat insects.
For stronger classes, ask the students to make up new dialogue talking about different animals ‘diet’.
