- T asks Ss to share the school events in pairs according to the tables on PPT P5 and P6.
(T asks Ss to make sentences with the sentence patterns: We have … on …/ … is on … Ss may make many mistakes here, so T must correct the mistakes and ask them to say these sentences again.)

After they finished writing, Ss can exchange their writings with their deskmates and ask them to check if there are some grammar mistakes. T can also ask Ss to share some good sentences or give some comments about the passage they read. Then Ss can share their writing in class. At last T give a sample for Ss.)

| | Teaching Reflection
| Students may have many problems when they are writing, because they are still confused about the questions: What is proper noun and common noun, and they can not use the sentence patterns well: We have … on …/ … is on … So I need to ask them to hand in their writings and I will check and correct their mistakes one more time to see where their problems are.
