Unit: A Visit to Hong Kong

 

Procedures
Task 2: Designing a Two-day Itinerary for the Overseas Students

 

Part A: Knowing more about Hong Kong

 

  1. After announcing that all the pupils can become Junior Ambassadors, tell pupils that a group of overseas students are coming to Hong Kong and they have to plan a two-day itinerary for them. To give them more ideas for planning the itinerary, show pupils the ETV programme Around Hong Kong in Seven Dayshttp://etv.hkedcity.net/Home/Pages/
ResourceList.aspx?catId=12096&subId=2&
specialFirst=False
.

 

  2. Before watching the ETV programme, remind pupils to pay attention to the sequence in which the tourists visited the different places in Hong Kong, what they did there and how people described these places.

 

  3. Ask pupils to finish the activity sheet (LT 3.4 Part A) while watching the ETV programme.

 

4.

Elicit adjectives for describing the scenic spots and activities (e.g. attractive, wonderful). Develop word association skills by highlighting that some of the adjectives are the synonyms, i.e. words with similar meaning.

 

 

  5. Have pupils play a ‘Domino Game’ on synonyms of adjectives to revise the adjectives learnt.

 

  6. Ask pupils to complete the diary (LT 3.4 Part B) using the appropriate adjectives. Remind pupils that there can be more than one answer and encourage them to suggest different synonyms.

 

  7. Check the answers with pupils and elicit from them different possible answers. Prompt them to use different synonyms to give lexical richness.

 

  8. Engage pupils in a ‘Board Game’ to consolidate the learning of the target vocabulary and sentence structures in a fun way.
