Lesson Plan:

**Introduction (5 minutes)**

1. Greet the student and establish a positive learning atmosphere.

2. Discuss the importance of the topic: "Today, we will learn how to navigate
through an airport in Chinese, which will be helpful for your future travels."

**Warm-up (5 minutes)**

3. Start with a simple icebreaker: Ask the student if they have ever traveled by plane
before. Share your own experiences if applicable.

**Vocabulary Building (5 minutes)**

4. Present essential airport-related vocabulary using flashcards or visual aids. Include

words like "机场" (airport), "登机牌" (boarding pass), "护照" (passport), "安检"
(security check), "登机口" (gate), "行李" (luggage), "行李托运" (check-in luggage),
"延误" (delayed), "到达" (arrival), and "离开" (departure).

- "我需要护照吗？" (Do I need my passport?)
- "行李在哪里托运？" (Where do I check my luggage?)

**Listening and Speaking (5 minutes)**

6. Use audio or video materials to simulate an airport scenario. Let the student listen
to announcements, and then ask comprehension questions.

**Role Play (5 minutes)**

7. Conduct a role play scenario where the student plays a traveler at an airport, and
you play an airport staff member. This will help them apply what they've learned.

**Closure (5 minutes)**
