As students work, move around the classroom checking the progress of the pairs and offering help as needed.
Ask one or two pairs to say their conversations to the class. Ask the rest of the class to look at the picture as they listen.

Step Ⅴ Grammar Focus
Review the grammar box. Have students read the questions to the class. As the students are doing this, write the following three questions on the blackboard.
1. Do you know where I can buy shampoo?
2. Could you tell me how to get to the post office?
3. Can you please tell me where I can get a dictionary?
Ask the students to look at the blackboard. Underline the words I can buy shampoo, the post office, and I can get a dictionary. Ask a student to name something that he or she is looking for, such as a new notebook. Then ask other students to try to use all three sentence starters to form questions.
Possible questions are:
Do you know where I can buy a notebook?
Could you tell me how to get to the bookstore?
Can you please tell me where I can get a notebook?
Pronunciation note
With most questions that use the words how and where, your voice drops at the end. But in this unit the voice rises at the end of the polite questions. Even though the questions contain the words how and why, the voice rise at the end. If you allow your voice to fall at the end, the questions will no longer sound as polite.
