Lead the students into the real situations: Ask one boy student: What are you doing now? The student may answer: I am listening to you. Ask the whole class: What is he doing? The whole class answer: He is listening to you. Repeat this with one girl student. Practice with the whole class, trying to revise the tense with different personal pronouns. 教学设计说明 同样复习进行时态，不同的是从图回到现实。 Step 3 -Leading in: introduce the past continuous tense to the students 1. Ask one student (student A) to leave the room and wait outside the door Then ask two students to do actions, one (students B) is writing on the blackboard and the other (student C) is drawing a picture. They keep doing it without stopping until I ask them to stop. 2. Ask student B: What are you doing? Student B answers: I am writing on the blackboard. (Write the sentence on the blackboard as blackboard work) Repeat this with student C, write: I am drawing a picture 3. Ask the student outside to come in and sit down. Then ask the two students who are doing actions sit down too. 4. Ask the first student who was writing on the blackboard. Ask: What were you doing when (student A) came in? Help him to answer: I was writing on the blackboard when he came in. (Wrtie I was wrting on the blackboard as the blackboard work) I say to the class: He was writing on the blackboard when (student A) came in. Ask the class to repeat this sentence. 5. Repeat this with the second student who was drawing a picture. (Write I was drawing a picture ) 6. Ask some other students the question: What were you doing when (student A) came in? Then students ask and answer in pairs: What were you doing when (student A) came in? 7. Point to the blackboard-writing( During my teaching above, I have written it on the blackboard step by step).
