Teaching procedures and ways教学过程和方式

Step 1  Revision and Lead-in

Ask one or more students to show their work.

T: (Greet as usual) In the last unit, we learned how to write an e-mail to friends. Can you tell me what you often write in your e-mails?

S: We often write about our problems, our puzzles, sometimes our happiness and achievements to each other.

T: How often do you surf the Internet?

S: Once a week.

T: If your parents don’t allow you to surf the Internet and you can’t write e-mails to your friends, what will you do?

S: I won’t be happy. Perhaps I will get annoyed with them.

T: Well. That means you have your rules in your family though you are unhappy.

S: That ’s right.

T: We need to communicate with our friends and parents. If you have different opinions with your parents, how can you communicate with them? We also have to obey our parents. This class we’ll talk about what teenagers should do in our daily life.

T: Now I’d like you to see a picture.

Show the picture.

T: The students in the picture are from Chongqing. They’re having a debating

on the topic “What should teenagers be allowed to do?” Because they think

the topic is meaningful among teenagers. You are old enough to make clear

what to do and what not to do. Only after you understand and follow the

rules can you become useful people with a lot of abilities to our society. Most of middle-school students think

they should be allowed to do all the things they like, for example, they think:

They should be allowed to — choose their own clothes

—     go out with their friends

—     have part-time jobs

—     get their ears pierced

—     watch NBA matches

—     do volunteer work

—     drive

Write the above expressions on the Blackboard.

T: But actually teenagers have to obey some rules they don’t like. What should you allowed to do and not to do is a big problem. Today we’re going to learn to talk about it. As a teenager, do you think you should be allowed to drive?

S1: I think so.

T: Can you tell us your opinion?

S1: I think we are old enough. We should learn to drive.

T: Thank you. And what about you, Lily?

S2: I don’t think we should be allowed to drive, because most of us are busy with our study. Besides, we don’t have enough time to practice. And it’ll be very dangerous.

Ask for more examples from other students and write “A”<for agree> or “D” <for disagree> on the blackboard.

Step II  Brainstorming

T: Wonderful. (Then turn to another student). You look smart today, who bought you the T-shirt?

S: My mother.

T: Did she choose it for you?

S: No, I was allowed to choose it myself.

T: Thank you for telling us. Do you often choose clothes for yourself?

S: No, I couldn’t choose last year. But this year my mother allows me to choose clothes for myself.

T: Do you think teenagers should be allowed to choose clothes?

S: Of course, I do.

T: Great. Boys and girls, here are some more examples about what teenagers should be allowed to do or shouldn’t be allowed to do. Let’s look at the pictures on Page 18, module 1a. Read the statements together. Then think it over and circle “A” or “D” for “agree” or “disagree.”

A few minutes later.

T: Well, Li Yu, would you like to share your ideas with us?

S: Of course. I circled 1,3, 4 with “A”, and 2, 5 with “D”.

T: Can you tell us why you disagree with the statements 2 and 5?

S: OK. The second one says “sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive ”, I don’t think it can come true in our

country; the fifth one “twelve years old should be allowed to choose their own clothes ”, I don’t think they have correct comments on the materials or price.

T: Terrific! Thank you very much for telling us. I think everyone may have his answer. Any answer is correct if you can give out convictive reasons.

Step III  Listening

T: Now please look at the picture. From the three small pictures, what can you guess the girl wants to do?

S: She says she’s going to the mall with John. Because John just got his license. Perhaps she wants to buy a nice T-shirt. But I can’t understand Picture 3 clearly. I can only be sure it’s something about piercing ears or earrings.

T: Excellent. From the pictures we can just guess the main ideas. After listening to the recording, we can catch their meanings in detail. So listen to the tape carefully.

Play the recording for the first time.

T: All right. Most of you have circled “ T ” or “ F ” in the blanks. Now I’ll play it a second time, you may check your answers.

Step IV  Oral Practice

T: Please look at the statements in activity 1a and make conversations in pairs. The phrases in the box below can help you. First practice them in pairs.

Move around the class and check their work. Offer language help if needed.

T: (a few minutes later) Now who’d like to share your ideas with others? Gentlemen first, please?

Sample 1:

S1: I think teenagers should be allowed to go out with their friends.

S2: I agree. They are old enough. They can look after themselves well.

T: Great. Thank you. You’ve told us you can look after yourselves. Another pair, can you tell us something else?

Sample 2:

S3: I don’t think twelve-year-olds should be allowed to get their ears pierced.

S4: I agree. It’s too silly to wear earrings in the school.

T: Wonderful. Thanks a lot. Not all girls wear earrings now, but in some parts of the country, girls still do so.  And who can give us more examples?

Sample 3:

S5: I think students should be allowed to do homework with friends.

S6: I disagree. They talk instead of doing homework.

T: Very good! Thank you very much. Do your parents allow you to study with your friends?

Encourage them to talk more about the reasons and their own opinions.

Step V  Listening Practice

Ask the students to look at the picture on Page 19.

T: We can see three persons in the picture. Are they talking to one another?

S: No, two girls are talking, and the boy is working..

T: Well, what are their conversations about? Does Molly agree, disagree or not know what Kathy thinks? Let’s listen to the tape for the first time. Please circle “Agrees”, “Disagrees” or “doesn’t know” to show what Molly thinks.

Play the recording for the first time. Then check the answers.

T: You’ll hear the same conversation again, This time please number Kathy’s and Molly’s answers in the correct order.

Play the recording again, then check the answers.

Step VI  Pairwork

T: From the listening, we know that in our daily life teenagers should and should not be allowed to do a lot of things. In different countries people have different opinions on it. Now please make a list of four things you should or shouldn’t be allowed to do. Discuss your list with your partner: What should or shouldn’t you be allowed to do?

Get several groups of students to read their lists.

Sample 1:

S1: Do you think teenagers should be allowed to have mobile phones?

S2: Yes. It’s convenient for students and their parents to communicate each other.

Sample 2:

S3: Do you think teenagers should be allowed to have mobile phones?

S4: No, I don’t. Perhaps students pay more attention to short messages than study.

Sample 3:

S5: Do you think teenagers should be allowed to go on a trip by themselves?

S6: Yes, I do. They may ask “ Travel Agency ”to help them.

Step VII  Grammar Focus

Ask the students to read the example sentences in the Grammar Focus box on Page 19 together.

T: (After that) In this class, we have learned “should be allowed to do” and “should not be allowed to do”. (Pointing to the Bb) Who can tell us when to use them? What do they mean? From the sentences we have practiced, what can you conclude?

S1: It’s a passive voice. In active voice, if we say, “should allow someone to do sth “, we can say, “someone should be allowed to do sth.” in passive voice sentence.

T: Thank you. Anyone else can add it up?

S2: If “shouldn’t someone to do sth.” We can use “someone shouldn’t be allowed to do sth”.

T: Of course. And if you think so, you can say____. (Get students to fill in the blank)

S3: I can say, “I agree.”

T: Quite right. If you don’t think so, you can answer_____. (Get them to fill in it again)

S4: I can answer, “I disagree.”

T: Yeah. Besides, you can add your opinions after it.

Step VIII  Practice

Get a student to answer, so do I. I like places where the weather is always warm.

Showing a picture of Mexico, ask two students to make up similar conversations. Note to use the information in Activities 2a and 2b.

Do the same with the third place Niagara Falls.

Say, now please role play the conversations in pairs, using the information in Activities 2a and 2b. Each pair makes one at least. As the students work, move around the room checking progress of the pairs and offering help as needed. Ask one or two move pairs to say their conversations to the class.

Step 5 Grammar Focus

Present ate the conversation below by saying to the students and writing it on the blackboard:

Where would you like to visit?

I’d like to go somewhere relaxing.

Draw a line under the word relaxing.

Then ask the children the same questions and tell them to answer in their own words. For example,

I’d like to go somewhere interesting.

I’d like to go somewhere exotic.

After asking several children to give answers with different adjectives, get them to practice in pairs. Each pair makes two conversations.

Next ask several pairs to share their conversations with the class.

Then say, the adjectives usually come before the nouns, such as, an educational vacation, a tiring trip. But in the sentences which are using the word something or somewhere, the adjective should be put after the pronouns. For example:

I’d like to go somewhere fascinating.

I’d love to eat something delicious.

After that, present ate another pair of sentences. Say to the students and write down on the blackboard:

Where would you like to visit?

I hope to go to France some day.

Explain sentences with some day in English orally, like this,

I hope to go to France some day. This sentence means I hope to go to France some day, but I’m not sure I will. Maybe

I will go there in the future and maybe I won’t. The sentences with some day are often used to express that.

Then have the children make up more sentences.

Dear S.T. Zhang,

We are very glad to receive your letter.

Thank you for choosing our agency.

I think Qinghai is the best place for you and your family to go on vacation based on your e-mail.

Qinghai is a very beautiful city with lots of nice scenery. It’s on the east coast of China. The waves of the sea are really wonderful. It’s really an exciting place to visit. And you can also do a lot of exercise there, such as hiking along the coast

On the beach, swimming in the great ocean.

It will become a more attractive place in summer.

We can help you book an inexpensive room with three beds. Many local people there run that kind of hotels with their own houses. The rooms are very clean and nice and you can cook your meals in the kitchens if you like.

I suggest you’d better travel by plane.

You can save much time in that way.

How do you think of traveling to Qinghai?

Please tell us.

Best wishes to you and your family.

I’d like to visit Paris most. Because I cam see the famous tower, the Eiffel Tower. There. And I have ever heard the people there are very romantic. I’m interested in that.

Then say, please say something on the place where you would like to visit most to your partner now. Get them to work in pairs. Move around the room as they work, offering words and sentences as needed.

After they’vet all finished, tell them to write an article about where they would like to visit most and why. Ask students to complete the work on their own. Move around the classroom and help them.

After they’vet finished writing, ask a few students to read their articles to the class. Encourage the rest of the class to tell the mistakes they may have made in their passages.

Work in pairs. Each one reads their own passage to the partner. Help correct any mistakes in the passage.

Sample writing

I’d like to go to a beautiful place. I think it would be Paris. If I went there I could visit the Eiffel Tower. It is famous all over the world. I like the Eiffel Tower very much. I have collected lots of pictures of it. Some of them are on the walls of my small room. It is my dream to go to visit the Eiffel Tower and take photos there by myself. That’s the main reason for me to like to visit Paris most.

I also like to see the other scenes in Paris. I have heard that the streets there are very beautiful. And there are many famous buildings in Paris. I would like to visit the museums there, too. I hope my dream can come true some day.
