Answers: 1.b 2.a 3.c
Step V 2c
Hold a picture of Hawaii and say, I hope to visit Hawaii some day. Get a student to answer using the information in activities 2a and 2b. e.g. I do, too. I like places where the weather is always warm.
Showing the picture of Mexico, ask two students to make a similar conversation.
Do the same with the third place Niagara Falls.
Then ask the students to make conversations in pairs.
After some minutes, get some pairs to say their conversations.
Step VI Grammar Focus
Ask the students to read the sentences together.
Where would you like to visit? I’d like to go somewhere relaxing.
Underline the word relaxing. Ask them to pay attention to the order of somewhere and relaxing and then make similar sentences. (The adjectives usually come before the nouns e.g. an educational vacation, a tiring trip. But in the sentences that are using the word something or somewhere the adjective should be put after the pronouns.
e.g. I’d like to go somewhere fascinating. I’d love to eat something delicious.)
Ask the students to read the sentences together.
Where would you like to visit? I hope to go to France some day.
Underline the words some day and explain the sentence.
(This sentence means I hope to go to France some day, but I’m not sure I will. Maybe I will go there in the future and maybe I won’t.)
Then ask some students to make sentences with one day.
Step VII Summary and Homework
Summarize what the students have learnt and give them some homework.
To remember the grammar focus.
