Tuesday, March 6

This week we will work on Lessons 1, Locating Community Resources, and 2, Using the Telephone. For both lessons, we will emphasize student practice.

In Lesson 1, we will have students ask and give directions to locate
  • the local library
  • schools, public and parochial
  • the zoo
  • an art museum
  • a grocery store
  • the swimming pool
  • the DC employment office

In Lesson 2, we will practice asking questions over the telephone. I will try to make up a couple of sets of index cards, questions and answers, with each student drawing one from each deck, and so getting to practice once as customer and once as store or office employee.

    1. Start with the listening activity on pg 71 (Unit 4, Lesson 4)
    2. Give out a map to the students, saying they need to find where their family is having a surprise party for them. Then ask them to give directions to the certain place. Other students will have to figure out what that place is.

    b. Restaurant
    c. Concert hall
    d. Theater
    e. Park

    3. Teach comparative/superlative formation (pg 45)
    4. Comparative activity
    - The church is closer to the restaurant than the theater

    - Who’s party is bigger? Abigail’s or Juan’s?
    - Which is better for walking around? The park or the theater?
