\n\tLesson\/Unit Summary: <\/strong>This unit aims at developing students’ competence of using the modal verb “may” to ask for permission and “should” to talk about obligations. It also aims to raise students’ safety awareness. The unit consists of three lessons. In Lesson 1, Reader’s Theatre is used to promote students’ interest in reading and to let them demonstrate an understanding of the reader. Their attention is then drawn to the rhyming pairs, which are the linguistic features of this book. In Lesson 2, students are encouraged to notice how Small Bear in the reader asked for permission. A video is shown to illustrate the use of “May I”. Through a competition, students are invited to ask for permission in as many ways as possible in the given scenarios. In Lesson 3, students watch a video and talk about more safety rules of cycling using “should” and “shouldn’t”. To extend students\u2019 learning and to further strengthen their safety awareness, selected videos are shown as input for students to design a poster about the safety rules of a particular activity chosen by them.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
