 (利用黑板上画的美国地图向学生发问：Where is Los Angeles? Where is New York? 并渗透It’s in the … of America.句型。本环节利用学生对美国的了解和感官来渗透新的知识点，为后面方位词的学习奠定基础。）

Look, this is a compass, what’s the meaning of “w” “e” “n” “s”?

 ( 本环节利用指南针上的“e s w n” 四个字母来帮学生形象直观的理解“东南西北”四个方位词，并在单词的操练中运用“上下左右”拍手分别来表示“北南西东”四个方位，还利用说开头一个字母来让学生辨别是哪个方位词，通过多种操练使学生掌握四个方位词，并利用黑板上的美国地图，通过问: Where is Los Angeles/New York?将句型It’s in the …of America.直观地展示给学生，并帮助学生理解抽象的地理位置。值得注意的是：It’s in the east of America.一句中“the”的发音老师可用一个提示性的手势来帮助学生记忆。)

 (此环节通过小组竞猜my cousin 的三个朋友住在美国的什么位置来操练句型He/She lives in the…of America.问题设计不但有信息差而且通过小组竞赛奖励的方式能够激发学生的学习热情和想说的欲望，帮助学生掌握重点句型。并且运用TPR活动借助脍炙人口的chant 帮助学生更好地掌握四个方位词。)
