(3) How did they feel?
【设计意图：以问题的形式引导学生通过解读故事标题和图片猜测故事内容。】

【设计意图：整体浏览，指导学生快速阅读，找到问题答案即可，无需逐词逐句理解意思。】
3. Difficult words

T: Here are some words in the story. Find the meaning of each word by circling the correct letter.
【设计意图：让学生罗列不会读或不理解的单词，指导他们根据上下文猜测词义。对于一些不规则动词的过去式，可直接告诉学生这是哪个动词的过去式。】

Step 3 Practice
1. Put sentences in the correct order
T: So you know the story in the park, right? Millie wrote some sentences about what happened, but they are not in the correct order. Read these sentences carefully and then help Millie put the sentences in the correct order. Write the numbers 1-7 in the boxes.
T: Read the sentences in the correct order, and try to get the main idea of the story by filling in the blanks. Pay special attention to the simple past tense of the verbs.
2. Correct Millie’s sentences
T: Millie is telling her friend Wendy on the phone about what happened in the park, but Wendy cannot hear her clearly. Write a T if a sentence is true or an F if it is false. Check the answers with your partner.
3. Help Andy answer Henry’s questions
T: Henry, Andy’s friend, is asking Andy about the “ghost”. Help Andy answer his questions.
T: Work in pairs. One is Henry and the other is Andy, and try to act the dialogue out.
