Step Ⅰ Warming up

T: Good morning / afternoon, everyone!

Ss: Good morning / afternoon, Sir / Madam!

T: Have you seen plants and animals that live under the sea? And do you like them?

Ss: Yes. They are very beautiful and lovely. / Some are ugly and dangerous. / I like them very much whether they are beautiful or ugly. / Yes, they are very nice ...

T: Mm, I see. But where did you see them?

Ss: At an aquarium. / In the tunnel under the sea. / In the zoo. / On TV, the programs about the sea animals. / On the Internet. I have seen a lot of pictures about the sea animals and plants ...

T: V ery good. You see, your sight of sea animals is limited. Do you want to know more about them?

Ss: Yes! Very much! But how?

T: Now you can talk to each other in pairs about the sea animals and plants you’ve seen before to enrich your knowledge of them. Use the list on Page 19 to help you.

Th e Ss begin to talk about the plants and animals under the sea they’ve seen before and the teacher can walk around to see what they are talking about. After that the teacher can ask two or three pairs to act their dialogues out.

Possible dialogue 1:

Sa: Last summer holiday, I went to Hainan Province with my parents. There when I was on my snorkelling trip, I saw many kinds of beautiful fish under the sea. They have so rich and fresh colors that I couldn’t believe my eyes.

Sb: Do you know their names?

Sa: No. So large variety of colorful fish that they made me astonished. But I could hardly call a single name of them. Maybe I saw sea anemones, which live on rocks and look like flowers.
