FOR  ABSENT STUDENTS - #1 Copy down the words we learned on your notebook and show the teacher the notes when you come back,

Today we learned the following words. 5th period students and 6th periods did different activities to practice the words.
吃 chī = eat
跳 tiào = jump
跑 pǎo = run
睡覺shuì jiào = sleep
游泳yóu yǒng = swim/swimming
爬 pá = climb, crawl
拉lā = pull
飛 fēi = fly
推 tuī  = push
會hui = (be) able to, know how
#1, we reviewed the animals words as usual and then we introduced the new words with TPR. We also asked questions like
 "Tony, nǐ huì bù huì yóu yǒng?"
          你會不會游泳 (do you swim?)

Activities: 

a) each student was given a piece of lined-paper, and draw lines and wrote the words like the followings.

b) Students were pairs up and then in the pair Student A asked Student B, "shǔ huì bù huì pǎo? " And if Student B answered "shǔ huì pǎo," then Student A made a O on the crossing box with shǔ and pǎo; if the Student B answered "shǔ bù huì pǎo," then Student B made X on the crossing box with shǔ and pǎo. After Student A asked Student B all the questions about shǔ and then it's Student B's turn to ask Student A questions. They both need to write the partner's answer down on their paper. Students were given 15 minutes to complete this task. Students were given 3 minutes to find a partner and to ask the first row questions like shǔ huì bù huì pǎo?  shǔ huì bù huì pá? shǔ huì bù huì lā? etc. After the 1st 3 minutes, students were given another 3 minutes to find another partner to practice the sentences like  niǎo huì bù huì pǎo?niǎo huì bù huì pá? niǎo huì bù huì pá lā? etc.
