I. Warming up
Ask the students to say some fun places in Wenzhou, such as Wenzhou Zoo, Wenzhou Museum, Wenzhou Science Technology Museum, Wenzhou Amusement Park; Jiangxin Island, Nanxi River, Mount Yandang.etc.
Teach the words they can’t pronounce well, write the places on the blackboard.
II. Presentation
1. Say: Of all the places, I like Wenzhou Amusement Park best, because I can have a great time there. And I went there last National Day. So you see I have ever been to the amusement park, But I have never been to Wenzhou Museum.
Write the two sentences on the blackboard and ask the students to read and understand.
Ask: What about you Where have you been
Tell the students to say some sentences about themselves.
“I have ever been to …, but I have never been to….”
Make the students to report what their partners have ever or never been to.
“*** has ever been to …, but he/she has never been to….”
2. Ask the students the general questions,
-- Have you ever been to …
Encourage them to answer, “Yes, I have.” Or “No, I haven’t.”
If the teacher has ever been to, add “So have I.” after the students answer “yes”. Teach “Neither have I.” in the same way.
After most of them know the meaning and the use of “So have I”, “Neither have I”, write them on the blackboard.
Tell them that they can be replaced by “Me, too.” and “Me neither.” in oral English.
(If the teacher has been to, while the students haven’t, say, Oh, why not go there next vacation, I’m sure you’ll have a great time. If the students have been to, while the teacher hasn’t, say, Hmm, I maybe I’ll go there next vacation.)
