known how to give a presentation. Generally, how do you start off your presentation if you are asked to present a subject you are interested in, just like one we have finished in writing period?

S: In my opinion, I should first state clearly what I am going to talk about. Probably I should say "Today I'm going to talk about..."

T: Good. So how do you finish the presentation?

S: I think I should say "That's all. Thank you."

T: Quite right. Today we'll learn how to give a presentation. First we should learn how to use the expressions from the presentation. Let's do Exercise 2. Match the expressions with why we use them.

After the students finish the exercise, check the answers together.

T: By now we have known how to use the expressions from the presentation. There are also some speaking strategies about giving presentations you should pay attention to while you are giving your presentation. Now please read the speaking strategies listed on page 28 to learn them.

Give the students 2 or 3 minutes to read the speaking strategies.

T: Now please prepare your writing we have finished in writing period. It's time to give a five-minute presentation to the rest of the class. First you can read the instructions of the three stages on how to give a presentation well.

After the students read the instructions, get three of them to give their presentations.

A sample presentation:

　Today I'm going to talk about the Olympic Games. Every four years athletes from all over the world take part in the Olympic Games.

Well, first I'd like to talk about the ancient Olympic Games. The ancient Olympic Games began around the year 776 BC in Greece. Many of the sports were the same as they are now. Some of the games in which the young men competed were: running, jumping and wrestling. Women were not allowed to take part in the games. After about the year 393 AD the Olympic Games stopped. For centuries there were no Olympic Games. But they wee not forgotten.
