Unit 2 Healthy eating Period 5 Using language: Extensive reading 整体设计 教材分析 This is the fifth teaching period of this unit. As usual, the teacher should check students’ homework and offer chances for them to go over what they learned in the last period at the beginning of the class. Then lead in the new lesson. In this period, the teaching emphasis will be put on developing students’ reading ability by reading extensively. We will deal with two parts: Come and Eat Here(2)in Using language on Pages 14-15 and Reading Task on Page 52. While reading, get students learning to use some reading strategies such as skimming, scanning. As to new words and phrases, the teacher can first find those students feel most difficult and help them to understand. That’s enough here. The purpose of this reading Come and Eat Here(2)is to complete the story of Wang Peng and Yong Hui and to show students that it is never too late to change bad eating habits and begin afresh. The teacher can first ask some students to retell the passage Come and Eat Here(1)to lead in the topic and then ask students to read the passage Come and Eat Here(2)and do some comprehending exercises. While checking their answers with the whole class, deal with language problems students can’t work out by themselves. This is an extensive reading lesson, so the teaching steps should be simple. As to the part Reading Task, the two passages provide the information on which each student can decide his/her point of view. Two opposite opinions are examined with ideas for and against the building of the restaurant. Ask students to read through the passages and learn more about the opinions and the reasons given by both sides. |
