■Warming up by reading aloud the text
First let’s read aloud the text to the tape. Reading aloud to the recording helps you develop and improve English skills — reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Listening to yourself reading aloud makes you better understand vocabulary and grammar.
Reading aloud teaches you about texts in a way that silent reading never can.

Look! Here is a picture of a room. Look at the picture carefully. Where is the computer (dress, light, chair, math book and basketball) If you can’t find out where they are, please read the note carefully and try to draw the missing things in the picture.
While reading try to cut/ the sentence into thought groups, study all the predicates, circle all the linking words and underline all the expressions. That’s grammar study, indeed.
Write the words you know for the things in the picture.
Now write all the expressions in your notebook.
Useful expressions from the text
take …to …, on the dresser, under the bed, on the bed, in the drawer, on the table
