Step 1 Talking about the three schools
Get the students to talk about the three schools. Encourage them to speak out as much information as possible. (This is designed for the students to collect and organize the information they have already have through former learning. Get them ready for the new information they are going to get through listening. )
Step 2 Introducing the story line
Introduce the story line by reading through and explaining the instruction words of part A. Tell the students that Daniel is writing an article about different schools for the newsletter. He has got some information. ‘Let’s see what information did he collect!’ Go through the table carefully and explain some of the words, for example, ‘Length of summer holiday’ ‘Time spent on homework every day’. The students must be clear about what they should get while listening.

and help Daniel to complete his article.
Ask the students to check the answers for each other. Then get the students to read the sentence out one by one. (There are some long sentences in the passage. If the students get some problem, help them by repeat the sentences for the students to repeat.)
Step 5 Explaining some of the sentences
Explain some of the sentences to the students, because these sentences are really important to talk about different school lives.
Chinese students have more weeks off in the summertime than British students. (‘Off ’ is part of the phrasal verb ‘have/take (a period of time) off’/ ‘be off’. It means ‘to be away from work or school for a period of time’. Here, it means students in China have a longer summer holiday than British students.)
British Students spend less time doing their homework than Chinese students.
Students at Rocky Mountain High School do not wear uniforms and do not do morning exercises.
Step 6 Reading sentences out
Write down some sentences about three schools on pieces of papers and get some of the students to read them out while the other students guess which school is he/she from.
I spend the most time doing homework.
Step 7Finishing the exercises in Part A3
Get the students to finish the exercises in Part A3. And then check the answers. (For weaker class, the teacher may put it more clearly that Nancy is from Rocky Mountain School in America, John is from Woodland School in England and Daniel is from Beijing Sunshine School in China.)
Help the students to get the answers by asking questions.
Who am I? Which school am I from? Which countries am I from?
Step 8Translating the following sentences
Get the students to translate the following sentences. Once again help the students to focus on some important sentences patterns and consolidate it.
