Step 2 English text
2c doing pairwork
Just now we heard something about the items of clothing in the pictures in 2a. We now know their colors, prices and so on. Now look at the dialogue in the illustration in 2c and make your own conversations in pairs like that using the items of clothing in the pictures in 2a. Then I’ll ask some pairs to perform your conversations for us.
Sample dialogue:
S1: How much are the blue shorts
S2: They are nine dollars.
S1: How much is the yellow T-shirt
S2: It’s eight dollars.
3a Reading and filling
Look at the picture in 3a. What item is the girl buying Yes, she’s buying a blue sweater. Here is an uncompleted conversation about the picture. Read it and write the correct word in each blank.
Check the answers:
Clerk: Can I help you
Mary: Yes, please. I want a (1) sweater.
Clerk: What (2) color do you want
Mary: Blue.
Clerk: Here you are.
Mary: (3) How much is it
Clerk: 20 dollars.
Mary: I’ll take it. (4) Thank you/Thanks.
Clerk: You’re welcome.
Now let’s read the article loudly after the tape sentence by sentence. Try to imitate the pronunciation and intonation of the native reader.
Culture note: The difference between Thanks, Thank you, and Thank you very much
Thanks is used in informal situations or in situations when the person helped you in a not very important way. Thank you is the standard form, which is acceptable in all situations. Thank you very much is used only when someone has done something special to help you. The tone of voice can also add meaning to a statement of thanks. A warm, meaningful Thanks sometimes means a lot more to the listener than a more formal Thank you.
3b Doing pairwork
Let’s look at the pictures in 3b.
Please talk about the name and color of the objects.
Then read the conversation in 3a in pairs again and
make your conversations like that using the clothing in the pictures I 3b. You can decide the
price of each item by yourself.
Sample conversation:
S1: Can I help you
S2: Yes, please. I want a hat.
S1: What color do you want
S2: Black.
S1: Here you are.
S2: How much is it
S1: 5 dollars.
S2: I’ll take it. Thank you.
S1: You’re welcome.
Closing down by playing a game
Now read the sentences in the pictures. Do you know how to play the game This is a memory game. Each person says the name of an item of clothing and a price. You have to remember all the items and all the prices you hear. You can play the game in groups of four. For example:
S1: The blue sweater is seven dollars.
S2: The blue sweater is seven dollars.
The red socks are two dollars.
S3: The blue sweater is seven dollars.
The red socks are two dollars.
The yellow hat is five dollars.
S4: The blue sweater is seven dollars.
The red socks are two dollars.
The yellow hat is five dollars.
The green T-shirt is six dollars.
S1: ......

Teaching aims
1To learn the numbers 10-31
2To improve the listening and writing skills
Teaching Procedures
Step1 Warming up by talking about plans
Last class we learned how to buy a thing and how to talk about the price. When we talk about the price, we’ll use the numbers. And you have learned the numbers 1 to 9. This class we’ll study the numbers 10 to 31.
1a listening and repeating
Look at the numbers in the box in 1a on page 44. Listen to the recording and repeat one by one. Please pay more attention to the pronunciation of twenty and thirty. They are often pronounced differently than they are spelled. The word twenty is often pronounced twenny. The second “t” disappears. This is especially true when the twenty is followed by another number as in twenty-one. Also, the second “t” in the word thirty often sounds like a “d”. Most native speakers of English sounded like they’re saying thirdy instead of thirty.
Tapescript
10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31
