（以此方法将图片上的grandfather, grandmother, grandparents, brother, sister引出）

【教学设计说明】借着上一步复习的句型，拿出一张全家福，引入到family的话题；分别指向相应的人物来介绍，引出新的词汇，并教学生朗读，以确保他们发音的正确。在此环节的最后，说明可数名词单数变复数的最基本用法，为后面进一步的学习埋下伏笔。

2) Check the answers.

3) Ask some individuals to read aloud the words.

【教学设计说明】说到match的时候用手做比划，示范什么是match。学生完成任务后再抽学生朗读，主要是检查他们是否掌握了这些词汇的读音。

T: OK. Let's begin. Tom, Stand up, please. Your letter is "e".

Tom: This is my grandfather.
