Teaching goals:
To describe a process
To follow instructions
To learn about imperatives countable/uncountable noun
To learn to use how much/how many do you/ we…?
Procedures:
Step 1. Warming up by i ntroducing drinks
T: Hello, everyone! Today we are going to talk about drinks. What is your favorite drink?
Ss: Sprite, Coco cola, green tea, water and orange juice.
T: Today we are going to learn a new kind of drink, banana milk shake. What is it? A beverage made of milk, flavoring, and ice cream, shaken or whipped until foamy. Blender means a kind of machine that blends, with whirling blades for chopping, mixing, or liquefying foods. Here are two pictu res about them.
Let’s see how to make a banana milk shake.
Step2. Warming up learning grammar
Grammar Focus
Countable items are things we can count, one, two, three… for example: one pen, two computers. Uncountable it ems are things we can’t count. They are not separate items. When we talk about them we should use a noun that can express amount, for example, a cup of milk, one teaspoon of cinnamon.
1a. Filling in the picture with these words
Look at the picture in 1a on the page 41. There are some actions. What are they doing? Let’s see how to fill them into the picture.
_____the blender. _____the bananas._____the milk shake. _____the milk into the blender. ____the bananas and ice cream into the blender. ______three bananas.
When you do this exercise you should pay attention to the order of these actions.
Turn on the blender. Cut up the bananas. Drink the milk shake. Pour the milk into the blender. Put the bananas and ice cream into the blender. Peel three bananas.
1b. Listening and putting in the right order.
If we want to make something, we should follow the instructions. Instruction means a guide to make something that you can follow. Let’s listen to the tape and put the instructions in the right order and we will know how to make a banana milk shake.
A: I’m hungry! Let’s make a banana milk shake.
B: How do you make a banana milk shake?
A: Well, first peel three bananas.
B: Three bananas?
A: Yes. Then cut up the bananas.
B: OK, I’m finished.
A: Now put the bananas and ice cream into the blender. Then pour the milk into the blender.
A: Is this enough milk?
A: I guess so. Next, turn on the blender. Finally, pour the milk shake in a glass and drink it.
Yes, the right way should be like this:
1.Peel three bananas.
2.Cut up the bananas.
3.Put the bananas and ice cream into the blender.
4.Pour the milk into the blender.
5.Turn on the blender.
6.Drink the milk shake.
Read the tapescript to underline all expressions and copy them into the expression book.
1c. Doing pairwork
First, we should read the instructions several times. Then please don’t look at your books and tell your partners how to make a banana milk shake. You can use these words: “ first, next, then and finally”. Sometimes English speakers pause a fter these words and this helps the listener notice that the speaker is saying a set of steps. You can pay attention to it when you talk with your partner.
A: How do you make a banana milk shake?
B: First peel the bananas. Next cut up the bananas.
Next put the bananas and ice cream into the blender.
Then pour the milk into the blender. Then turn on the blender. Finally drink the milk shake.
Step3. Listening Practice
2a. Listening and finding out “how many or how much”
