KEY CONCEPTS
Focus Structures:
I can't believe it! Is it safe
You will be all right. It will be fun!
STEP 1: PRESENT
1) Instruct the students to look at the pictures in Lesson 5.
Ask: Where are Danny and Jenny (A: They are in the desert city-Dunhuung.)
How do you know they are in the desert (A: Because there is a lot of sand in the picture.)
Say: Danny and Jenny are riding on camels. Camels live in the desert.
2)Ask the students to read the title of the lesson 5 (Another Stop along the Silk Road).
Ask: What is the Silk Road Is it a road made of silk (A: No, it's not. It is a route that some people travelled on a long time ago. It gets its name from the silk trade.) Say: Marco Polo is a famous person who travelled on the Silk Road.
3)Ask: What does the word "stop"mean (A: "Stop i the opposite of“go”.)
Explain that stop has two meanings. In this case, 'a stop" means a place where you stop and not the opposite of "go". Give the example of bus stop or train stop.
