　　→Step 3 Read a map

　　After the warming up exercises, we will come to the topic of this period.

　　It is to read a map and think about the route to a certain place on the map. The students are supposed to tell the right direction and describe how to get there.

　　Meanwhile, they should be able to name the school buildings in English. If they are devoted to the exercise, they will learn some names of the school buildings by heart as these building are the ones they can find in their high school too.

　　To start the exercise, firstly, we can ask the students to read the thoughts of Wei Hua on page 6 and try to act it out on the map below.

　　Secondly, we can read the thoughts to the students and ask them to "walk" on the map meanwhile.

　　Thirdly, we can ask one of the students to read the thoughts and ask another one of them to come to the blackboard and act out Wei Hua's thoughts.

　　After several practice, the students are able to name some of the buildings in English. Then we can ask them to finish part B on page 6.

First, we can ask the students to draw a route for Wei Hua and ask one of them to present it on the blackboard.
