　Activity 3 Write about an embarrassing moment you (or someone you know) had.

First ask the students to think about an embarrassing moment, then tell them the steps to write a good passage. Second, get them to discuss it in pairs and tell them to do the writing by themselves. Third, collect the passages the students have written. At last, show them on the screen and make proper comments.

T: Since we have read the story on Page 35. Who can tell me what needs to be done to write a good passage?

S: First we should make sure what to write about. And then we should arrange the main points or events in order, such as the time, place and people involved in it.

T: Good! Anything to add to?

S: Yes. We must think over what words and phrases we will use.

T: Quite right. Anything else?

S: Yes. To write a coherent passage, we must use the conjunctions such as "and, so, but, when, while, if, as long as" and so on appropriately.

T: Quite right! Now you've known how to write a good passage, I'd like to write a passage about an embarrassing moment. Discuss it in pairs and then finish the writing by yourselves.
