Teaching procedures Step I Greet the class as usual and check the homework.

Judy is tall. Judy is taller than Bobby.

Then bring out two rules of different length. Say:

Then have students work with a partner.

Make conversation work with a partner.

Step VII Pronunciation Note

Write one of the example sentences from the picture on the board circle the word than say. When we say the word than, we say it quickly. You don't hear very much of the sound.
