T asks Ss about "GOLDILOCKS AND THE THREE BEARS" and tries to get a general idea. Ask the students if they have read the story before and what they remember about it, or ask them what they expect the story will be like. ★ Today’s story is The Frog Prince. Have you heard of this story? Have you read it? (⇢ Yes, I have. / No, I haven’t.) ★ David, since you have read it, can you name one character in it? (⇢ There is a frog.) ★ If you haven’t read it, what kind of story do you think it will be? (⇢ I think it is about a prince who changes into a frog.) 3. Look at the picture on page 10 and discuss with the students the questions from Before You Read. ★ This picture represents a scene from The Frog Prince. ★ What is swimming in the pond? (⇢ A frog is swimming.) ★ What does it have? (⇢ It has a ball.) ★ What color is the ball? (⇢ It is bright yellow.) 4. Read Meet the Characters and have the students repeat after you. Ask questions about the characters to check how well the students understand.
-T shows flash cards and tries to elicit meaning by asking critical thinking questions as: Do you think the baby is standing or lying? - T does drilling for several times and makes sure the meaning is completely understood by Ss.
T gives Ss handouts and asks them to do it in groups. Then T provides Ss answer key to correct or T does it with Ss if time permits.
T devides Ss into groups and hands them pictures of the story. Ss retells the sory using their own words. T listens and take notes.
