Step I Lead-in
T: Good morning / afternoon, boys and girls. This week we will begin a new unit about inventions. You can see inventions all around us, from TV to car, from food to clothing. We should say nobody can live without them. Don’t you think so? Can you imagine one day without inventions?
Ss: That’s impossible.
T: Yes, we live in a world of inventions. These inventions make our life easier and more comfortable. In this unit, we will learn some inventions and their history. First, let’s get to know some new words.

Step II Card Game
Ask the students to play a card game to help them remember the new vocabulary of this unit.

T: Close your books. Here are some cards. On each card there is a word with English spelling. When I hold up a card, you must tell me what it means in Chinese, how to read it and some words related to it. Are you clear?
Show the cards to the students one by one. Correct their mistakes in pronunciation and understanding.

Step III Practice the new vocabulary
Ask the students to explain in their own words the words in Section A in the workbook.
T: Very good. Please turn to Section A of workbook, the first part. Discuss these words in groups and explain their meanings in your own words
Sample answers:
S1: Invent: There was not such a thing in the world. Someone made it and then there is such a thing. So we can say someone invented it.
S2: Discover: There is a thing. But people don’t know it or few people know it. Someone find it and make it known to people. We can say someone discovers it.
S3: Scoop: When it is a noun, it means a short-handled tool for taking up and moving something. When it is a verb, it means lifting something with a scoop.
S4: Mistake: If I say 2 and 2 is 1, you can say I make a mistake.
S5: Annoying: make one angry, unhappy or uncomfortable.
S6: Adjustable: that can be made more helpful or useful.
S7: Microwave: very short wave.
S8: Braces: something used to tighten.
Ask the students to circle the words in the table.
T: Very good. Now please find these words and circle them in the table. Volunteers?
Show a hanging chart with the same table to the students. Ask them to come to the front and circle the words in the table in the hanging chart.
Check the answers and correct the mistakes if there are any.

Step IV Words about food taste
(1a, 1b: P71)
Ask one student to come to the front to do a blind taste test.

Show a bag to the students.
T: Look, there are 4 kinds of food in it. I will let one of you come to the front and taste them. But I will use a piece of cloth to cover his or her eyes. After tasting, he or she has to tell how each food tastes and what food it is. Are you clear? Sophie, please.
Cover Sophie’s eyes and give her the food one by one. Sophie tastes each food and tries to guess what it is.
S: It is sweet. I think it is an apple.
They are salty and crispy. I think they are potato crisps.
It is sour. I think it is a tomato.
It is salty. But I don’t think I have eaten this food before. It is delicious.
T: Do you enjoy the food? Now you can take off the cloth. The last one is Pizza, which is popular with westerners. You can take it with you and go back to your seat. Thank you.
Sophie goes back to her seat.
T: Hi, class. What are the four different tastes of the food Sophie had?
S: They are sweet, crispy, salty and sour.
T: Yes. They are words used to describe different tastes of food. Try to use them to describe the food in the picture of 1a, Section B.
Ask the students to read the pictures of 1a in Section B and describe how the food tastes.
T: Now, look at the four pictures. What are they?
Ss: They are potato chips, lemon, ice cream and tea.
T: You are right. Please use the words we’ve just learnt to describe how they taste.
S1: Potato chips are crispy. Lemon is sour. Ice cream is sweet. Tea is sweet.
T: How about you? Do you have a different idea?
S2: Potato chips are crispy and salty. Lemon is sour. Ice cream is sweet. Tea is sweet.
T: Good. I think S2’s answer is better. Now let’s repeat the description together.
Ss: ...
Ask the students to write the name of a different food after each word in 1b of Section B.
T: Now, write the names of different foods after each taste as many as possible. I think this is an easy job for you. Think of the food you eat everyday at home or in restaurants.
Collect the answers and put them down on the blackboard.
Sample answers:
sweet: apple, orange, banana, honey, orange juice, cakes and candies
crispy: salad, potato chips, lettuce and cucumber
salty: pizza, French fries, olives
sour: grapes, pickle and vinegar
