3 Writing
• Answers
In my opinion, it is import to have a day to celebrate for our parents
The first reason for this is that, on these occasion, children will have a special day to express their feelings, memories and great love for their parents We have an opportunity to enhance family traditions Besides, members
of families can have a chance to get together, to know one another and to help one another
I think first Sunday of April is the most suitable day to celebrate because Sunday is a day off so everybody is free from work or study Moreover, April is in late spring or early
Trang 143 While – Writing
T: Ask Ss to follow the outline and work
independently to write a letter to a friend as
instructed

friend

necessary
4 Post – writing
" Peer correction"
T: Ask Ss to work with a friend, exchange
their writings and correct for each other
Ss are asked to recognize their friend's
mistakes in the writing and offer the
suggested corrections
T: Pick up some typical writing to correct in
front of class
summer, and then weather is generally fine at this time of the year, many activities can happen outdoor
It is not necessary to have parties but it’s good idea to have a family gathering when members have lunch or dinner together Children should give their parents flowers, send them cards, or bring them a special cake Children also should serve their parents the food that they like best
In conclusion, I believe the idea will be supported and the day will be celebrated nationwide because everybody loves their parents and wants their parents to be happy
