教学过程
Step 1 Greetings
Greet the students as usual.
Step 2 Revision
Ask some students to say their opinion about after-school activities.
Step 3 Talking
3a, A magazine interviewed some parents about after-school classes for children. Read the opinions below and make notes on your own opinions.
List the main views：
1. After-school classes can help kids get into a good university.
2. I want my child to be a successful person.
3. It’s good for children to start learning from a young age.
Students talk with their partners about these views. Then ask some students to state their opinions.
S1：I disagree. Many factors may influence in one’s life. Even though one goes to a good
university，he may still not be successful.
S2：I agree. Many great people learn things from a very young age. If the child is gifted in some area，it’s helpful to learn it from a young age.
S3：I disagree. People shouldn’t push their kids so hard. Parents shouldn’t send their small kids to all kinds of classes. They shouldn’t always compare their children with other children. I believe it’s better to let the kids be kids.
Step 4 Writing
3b, Ask students what’s the common problem for Chinese and American families? students： They have to go to many after-school classes. Say：OK. What’s your opinion about after-school classes? Now think about it and write a short article to a magazine. students try to write a short article by themselves. Walk around the class and give any help students may need. Let some students read their letters and correct them.
One possible version I don’t agree with the idea of sending kids to after-school classes because all these activities can cause a lot of stress for children. It’s not good for a child’s development. In my opinion，kids should have time to relax and think for themselves，too. I think it’s better that parents shouldn’t compare their children with other children. It’s crazy and not fair.
Step 5 Self Check
Self Check 1, Ask some students to make up some sentences with “until”，“so that” and “although” and then ask them to fill in each blank using the words. Check the answers with the students.
Self Check 2, Ask the students to go through the problems and advice first，and then choose the advice they agree with more. Then ask them to write their own advice. Check the answers with the class.
Answers：1. Why don’t you call him up and say you’re sorry.
2. You should study for the exams because you can go to many parties later.
3. Why don’t you tell him that you are studying and he should be quiet?

教学反思
写作对于很多同学来说是个难点，但本课在设计上采取了逐步推进的方法。上节课已经学了相关的阅读文章并留了讨论作业，本节课上新课前又检查了部分学生的作业，使学生对这一话题已经很熟悉，一些相关的词汇和句型心中有数，然后再让学生动笔写，学生都能写得像模像样了。
