Step 1 Lead-in
1. Ask and answer
T: Today, we’ll continue to learn about wild animals. Do you remember her? Yes, it’s Xi Wang,
a lovely giant panda. We’ve learnt a story about her, also some information
about giant pandas. Now, let’s have a revision. You n eed to answer some questions. Are you ready?
Why is it called “Xi Wang”?
What problems do they face?
What should we do to help?
2. Explain the learning aims
Explain the suffixes “-ing”, “-ness” and “ion” in “meaning”, “illness” and “action”. T: As we see, we can form new words by adding suffixes. That’s what we’ll learn. Step 2 Presentation
1. Work out the rule
T: Can you work out how to form the words “meaning”, “illness” and “action”?
Please work in group and find out the way by yourselves. (Group work)
2. Brainstorm
Try to think of more nouns with the suffixes “ing”, “ness” and “ion”.
T: Do you know more nouns with the 3 suffixes? Let’s work in groups to think of more.
3. Fill in the blanks (Using the first one as a model)
T: Can you fill in the blanks to complete the sentences below? By the way, before filling, make sure of the correct speech of the word you need. For example, look at the first one. Because of “have a”, the answer must be a noun. The answer is “meeting”. Let’s finish the rest.
4. Offer some tips
(1) Explain the tip
T: Please pay attention to the last four answers. Can you find something
different? Yes. Sometimes we need to change the ending of the verb or
adjective when we add the suffix.
(2) Get more words in these ways
T: Can you think of more words?Well, work in groups and find out more words in these ways.
5. Change them into nouns by adding suffixes (Part A)

Step 3 Practice
1. Complete a proposal
(1) Watch a video and have a discussion
T: As we know, many wild animals are in danger now. Let’s watch a video and
think about the question “As a student, what action can we take to protect
wild animals?” . (Group work)
(2) Finish Part B on P65
T: Yes. We should stand up and call on more people to join in protecting wild
animals. Here’s a proposal from a member of Wild Animals Club. Let’s help
to complete it. Please pay attention to the spellings and the plural form. (3) Read the passage aloud together.
2. Translate the sentences
T: What else can we do to protect wild animals? The students in Class One are
having a discussion about it. Let’s help to take some notes according to the Chinese statements. Please pay attention to the words in red and try to use the nouns with suffixes “ing”, “ness”, “ion” or more.
3. Rewrite the sentences
T: Now let’s have another test. Try to change the sentences below. You need to use the nounforms of the words in red. For example, look at the first one.
“Kindness” is the noun form of “kind”. Can you change the sentence with “kindness”?
Step 4 Extension
1. Discussion: Form nouns in other ways
T: As we see, besides suffixes, we can also form nouns in other ways. Now let’s have a discussion. In which other ways can we form nouns? If it’s difficult, here’re some exercises for you.
