Warming up by talking
Hello, everyone! What’s the weather like today? It’s a sunny day with a gentle breeze. It’s comfortable. So this morning I come to school by bike. It took me nearly 50 minutes. You know I live far from school. I often take buses to come here. But it takes me more than an hour. What about you? Today, let’s talk about how you go from one place to another. And we will talk about the time it takes to get to places and how far it is between two places.

Now read the tapescript, shadow the how questions and underling the expressions.

2b Writing the numbers
forty-six 46 thirty-three 33 seventy-two 72

2c Listening and checking
Now please look at the five transportation pictures. And we’ll listen to two conversations. The people are talking about how students get to school and how long it takes. Listen carefully and put a checkmark to show the kinds of transportation they talk about. Check your answer.

40 minutes
35minutes

25minutes
10 minutes

Listen carefully again and match the time with the kinds of
transportation. Let’s check the answers.
Tapescript
Conversation 1
Boy: How do you get to school?
Girl: I take the train.
Boy: How long does it take?
Girl: Oh, around forty minutes. How about you?
Boy: I take the subway.
Girl: How long does that take?
Oh, around thirty-five minutes.
Conversation 2
Girl: How do you get to school, Tom?
Tom: I ride my bike.
Girl: How long does it take?
Tom: It takes around twenty-five minutes.
Tom: How do you get to school?
Girl: I walk.
Tom: And how long does that take?
Girl: It only takes ten minutes.
Look at the sentences on the board. “They take the train. It takes about forty minutes.” “Take the train” means to ride the train. And we also use “take” to talk about a length of time. For example, it takes me 20minutes to get to school. So we use the same word, take, in two different ways.
Now read the tapescript, shadow the how questions and underling the expressions.
2d Doing pairwork
Now please make your own conversations about how you get to school and how long it takes. Read the example dialogue first then make yours with your partner.

A: How long does it take?
B: It takes about 25 minutes to walk and 10 minutes by bus. What about you?
A: I get to school by bike, sometimes I take my father’s car.
B: Oh, how long does it take?
A: It takes around 40 minutes by bike and 15 minutes by car.
