teaching procedures

present how to ask and answer questions using the present continuous tense and let ss practise by themselves.
step 2 playing a game
teachers prepare some pieces of paper before class, writing some actions on the paper, e.g. run. in class, ask one student to come to the front and draw a piece of paper from a box and look at what action to write on the paper. then the student asks the other ones to guess what he/ she is doing. the other students ask questions like this to guess: are you eating/running/playing football/etc? the student in front answers ‘yes, i am./ no, i’m not.’ the student who guesses the same action as it says in the paper wins a prize and he/she comes to the front to play the game again.
teachers can also arrange two students to come to the front, one draws the paper, the other one asks ‘what is he/she doing?’ the other students answer ‘is he/she eating/sleeping/reading/etc?’ then the student answers ‘yes, he/she is./ no, he/she isn’t.’
