For weaker classes, you might want to tell students where the mistakes are and simply ask them to write the types of mistakes and make corrections.6. Ask five students to read out a corrected paragraph each. Ask the rest of the class to check for correct answers. Main task Teaching procedures: 1. Arouse student’s interest by asking them to think about stress situations and how they deal with them. 2. Explain the context. Mr. Wu has set a quiz for the Class 1, Grade 9 students about good and bad ways to deal with problems. 3. Tell students that they will take part in the quiz in Part A on page 53. Read out one questions at a time, as well as all the answer choices. Students should work on their own and keep their answers secret. Tell students they are not allowed to discuss their answers with their classmates. 4. Once you have gone through all the questions, ask students to swap their book with another student. 5. Read out the best answer to each of the questions. Each student must mark the book he/she has been to given. Talk about why one way of dealing with problems might be better than another. Ask students if they have other ideas about how to deal with stressful situations. 6. This discussion and the sentences on page 53 are useful for the later parts of the main task section. 7.

Ask a student to read Millie’s letter in Part C aloud. Ask students whether they have any questions about meaning or vocabulary. 10. Students have only to fill in two blanks based on the information in Millie’s notes. Tell students to complete Part C on their own. 11.
