Period 4 Using Language
Teaching Goals:
1.To discuss and read about global warming. 2.To learn to write a poster. Teaching Procedures: Step 1. Warming up
Turn to page 30. Listen to the tape and follow in a low voice. Pause where the reader pauses. Pay attention to the pronunciation and intonation. Step 2. Reading 1. Individual work

and use a car that gets high mileage.
● Use energy-efficient appliances and weatherize your home.
● Use renewable energy sources, like solar heart or wind power ,which don’t emit carbon
dioxide.
● Switch from coal and oil to natural gas in power plants and factories .Natural gas releases the least amount of carbon dioxide. Step 4. Listening and discussing
