2. Talk about my friends and me
1.T shows the pictures of the friends in the book. And shows what they can do and what they cannot do.
2.Ss talk what they can do and what their friends cannot do.
【设计意图】本环节是听课文录音，回答问题：Can Zoom swim?再回到到学生自己身上，让学生两人一组，展开对话。再通过课文人物的图片，学生通过自己和朋友会与不会做的事情的进行对比，并提出问题：Is it OK to be different？
III. Hands-off activity（综合运用活动）
Activity 1. Enjoy the story
1.(1) Ss watch the video about Frog
音频文本：
Frog looks into the river.
Frog: I am green. I am beautiful. I can swim. I can jump very well. I am proud to be a frog.
A duck comes.
Duck: I am white. I am beautiful, too.
Frog: But you are not green.
Duck: But I can fly and you can’t.
Frog tires again and again, but he fails. Frog is not happy. He goes to Piggy.
Frog: Can you fly?
Piggy: No, I can’t. But I can cook.
Frog goes home and tries to cook. But he fails.
Frog is still unhappy. He goes to Rabbit. Rabbit is reading a book. But he cannot read books. He is very sad.
Frog: I can’t fly. I can’t cook. I can’t read a book. I’m a stupid frog.
Rabbit: I can’t fly. I can’t cook. I can’t swim. I am a rabbit. You are a frog. We are different.
Frog: Yes, I’m a green frog. I’m beautiful. I can swim. I can jump. I am proud to be a frog.
Frog is happy now.
(2)Discuss: What can the animals do? Is it OK to be different?
【设计意图】前面的环节中，一直是教师在对学生的回答：I can..../ I can’t ... .做出回应：Never mind! It’s OK to be different! 大部分学生还是不了解It’s OK to be different的真正意思。所以本环节的意图是让学生明白这句话的含义。此外，本设计的另一目的是引导学生通过听、看视频去概况文本的大概内容，并对教师提出的问题作答，培养学生通过阅读文本，截取信息的能力。
Activity 2. Let’s talk
Ss write the passage individually, then talk with their partner.
