"Are they all walking to Grandma's house?" - "No." "Are they flying to Grandma's house?" - "No." "How are they traveling to Grandma's house?" - "By bicycle, by wagon." To revise the ways in which people travel, elicit responses from students by asking them how they came to school today. "Did anyone travel today?" "Can you think of the modes of transportation we have?" (car, bicycle, motorbike, train, bus) "How did you get to school?" (school bus, car, walk. "I traveled to school by.......") "Did you swim to school?" "Did you fly a plane to school?" Ask students individually how they got to school.

"What can we use to travel by water?" (Boat, ferry...) "What can we use to travel by air?" (Plane, jet....) Place materials on board and stick different modes of transportation under each category after eliciting the answer from students.

Useful Language (5-8 minutes) • To highlight and clarify useful language for coming productive tasks

Teacher will set up the cartoon map on the board and place key sentences on the board for students to use. Teacher will start a chain conversation, starting from one student and having the first student ask another student and onward. "How would you get to the pool?" "I would go by bike." etc.

Practical use of key language (5-10 minutes) • To have students use language learned in class successfully

Teacher will display handout and explain the procedure to students by using a couple to participate and teach the rest of the class by example. Students will be encouraged to use the language among themselves and must ask each classmate what form of transport they have used. If time permits students can also ask their parents. Discuss the results in class and see what transport is used the most.

Teacher will elicit the answers to each question from various students and together they will complete the workbook page.
