　　The purpose of this teaching period is to train the students' listening ability, speaking ability and writing ability, as well as reading ability. What's more, students can also learn the practical ability to know how to report activities. This section consists of a series of activities, which provide students with opportunities to practice their language skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing. It is made up of three kinds of skill building, including understanding a program, comparing information and writing a notice. Besides, there is also a skill building activity in each step. Through the three steps, students will learn to solve a practical problem in their daily life, that is, how to talk about school activities and how to write a notice about a school activity.

　　Teachers can also divide the task into three parts for three teaching periods according to the students' ability. In the first period, teachers can focus on listening skill to let students learn how to complete a timetable for a school program. In the second period, the teaching important point is to train the students' speaking ability to enable the students to make decisions by comparing information. In the third teaching period, teachers are advised to put an emphasis on training writing ability. The teaching important and difficult point is to help the students learn how to write a notice. If the students have a high level, teachers are advised to spend one teaching period finishing the task. If necessary, teachers can prepare more listening materials to reach the goal to improve students' listening ability. As to speaking ability, teachers had better encourage all students to take part in class-activities. While preparing topics or situations, try to choose the ones that students are interested in and ensure every student to have a chance to speak and discuss.
