Step 2 Presentation
1. Try to describe the bears
(1) What are the bears like?
T: Please look at the picture. What are the bears like? Obviously, they have a big and heavy body. They have short and strong legs, sharp paws and a short tail.
(2) What do they live on?
T: What do they live on? Of course, most of them like eating meat and fish. But some of them also eat plants and insects.
(3) What are they good at?
T: Do you know what they are good at? From these pictures, we can see that they are good at running, climbing and swimming.
(4) What qualities do they have?
T: In fact, they are very friendly, you see, the bear is saying “Hello” to us. They like moving around slowly in the daytime and they sleep through the winter.
(5) What problems are the bears facing?
T: People usually like to buy expensive clothes made of animals’ fur. Some people like to eat the bears’ paws and they think it is a very delicious meal.
2. Make a comparison
(1) Summarize the passage about bears
T: Until now, we have a general idea of what a bear is like. Can you use one word to summarize the main idea of each paragraph?
(2) Compare the passages
T: Here, I have a question for you. Is it a perfect report? In the period Reading, we have learned a report on giant pandas. Let’s make a comparison between them.
T: We can see that the report on giant pandas includes three parts. The main body covers weight, food, problems and action. It also has short and impressive introduction and conclusion. But this report on bears seems to only have a main body. I think it also needs the important introduction and conclusion. Also, some paragraphs need rewriting.
