《Unit 4 A charity showl》Period 8 Study skills
(Sense group)
Teaching goals
● To introduce “sense group” to students
● To encourage students to read passages in correct sense groups
Teaching procedures
Step 1 Listening and discussing
You are to listen to a tape, in which one person is reading a passage with correct pauses, and the other one is reading the same passage but with incorrect pauses. After listening, make a comparison of the two readings and say which one reads the better and why.

Step 2 Presenting
You are right in saying the first person reads the better. When we read a sentence, we often pause here and there. And usually these pauses are made according to the grammatical structure of the sentence. Grammatically, a sentence is made up of several parts and each has its own meaning. These parts can be called sense groups. A sense group can be a word, an expression, a phrase or a clause. We often use the sign “/” to mark off different sense groups in a sentence.
Step 3 Reading with pauses
Listen to and read to the tape of the text on page 62. Pay attention to the sense groups within the sentences.
Now read the text aloud on your own with correct pauses or sense groups.
Step 4 Practicing
Millie will be the host of the charity show. She wants to make sure she speaks clearly and fluently. Let’s help her with her practice. You are to read the sentences in Part B by dividing each sentence into sense groups. Then listen to the tape and see if you have read correctly.
