7 Make sentences about a friend. Then check.

Ask volunteers to read the speech bubbles and the
phrases in the word bank. Make pairs. Students think
of a sentence about their partner with
You’re going to,
using the example speech bubbles to help. Their
partner
replies
Yes, I am
or
No, I’m not
(and corrects
the sentence). Circulate and help with language.
•
Ask individuals to share with the class, e.g.,
Franklin is going to go to the movies for his birthday.
8 How do we say
going to
in these sentences?
Listen and repeat.
•
Tell students to follow in their books as you play the
recording, in each case pausing to elicit the weak form
of
to
(
/tə/
). Remind students
that they practiced the
/ə/
sound in the previous unit. Explain that unstressed
words (e.g.,
to
,
the
,
of
,
a
) often have the
/ə/
sound. Then
continue with the recording, pausing for students to
repeat. Make sure that students use the
/ə/
sound in
to
.
