Step I Presentation
1.Tell students
One of my friends will leave home for some time.So he asked me to look after his dog.I don’t know how to look after a dog.My friend gave me
some instructions.Can you help me take some notes? Please take out your
notebooks and write down the following instructions.

(6)Keep him warm at night.
(7)Don’t pull his tail.
(8)Don’t kick him.
2.Let students read these sentences and find out the differences with the ones we use.
3 .Explain that
We start a sentence with the base form of a verb when we want to tell people to do something.We add ‘don’t’ in front of the verb when we want to tell people not to do something.Imperative sentences do not normally include a subject, because the subject ‘you’ is implied. However, a noun or pronoun can sometimes be used to identify the person receiving an order or instruction, e.g., the speaker wants to attract Mary’s attention and so he/she says, ‘Mary, don’t push.’ / ‘Don’t push, Mary.’. To be polite,we always use ‘please’ with the instructions.
Step II Task
Write some instructions on the board. Then ask them about the situations when we use them. Ask classes to create a list of different instructions and then write the different situations as titles above it, e.g.,
Classroom
Sit down.
Open the door.
Be quiet.
Stop talking.
Work with a partner.
Please close the window.
On the bus
Don’t push.
