Lesson one
CLASS OPENING
Start the New School Year Right:
Introductions
Introduce yourself to the class in a friend, informal Way. Ask your students to introduce themselves, too in English! If some of them are too shy to speak, you can ask questions, such as: What is your name? Where are you from? It is usually easier to answer questions in a new environment than to speak independently. Never forget to praise each student for what he or she says in English!
You won’t have enough time for everyone to speak to the whole class in this lesson, but introductions are still important. The purpose is to bring the class together in the shortest possible time on familiar and friendly terms. This will pave the way for later success. Here are some choice:
Divide the class into several groups (by row, for example). Ask the students to introduce themselves to each other. Ask for a few volunteers each lesion to stand and briefly introduce themselves.
The Topic for This Unit
Please see “Teaching Techniques” at the back of this teacher’s guide for suggestions for introducing units. Here are some step-by-step instructions for one way to do it.
Ask the students to predict what junior high school is like in Canada.
Are the schools bigger or smaller than in China?
Do students have one or many teachers?
How big is each class: bigger or smaller than in China?
Do the students have any other predictions?
Step1:Ask the students to discuss the questions in “Think about it”.
Step2: let the students listen to the tape (of the first email)carefully with the following questions:
Where did Li Ming write the letter?
How many pupils are there in Li Ming’s class?
Step3: Let the students listen to the tape(of the second e-mail) carefully with the following question:
Who will come from the U.K?
Step4: Ask the students to read the text fast and silently. Then have discussion about the two e-mails in detail:
Who is the e-mail from and to?
What can you learn from the two e-mails a second time.
Step5: Ask the students to read the two e-mails a second time. Then have a further discussion about the text. Divide the class into groups and ask each group to find what are the same or different things between the schools in China and Canada.
Step6: Answer the students’ questions.
Step7: Ask the students to write an e-mail to their friends if have time.
Step8: Come to “Let’s DO It”.
Class closing
Below is the suggested homework for this lesson. Aim to give students about thirty minutes of homework. Use your discretion in deciding how much reading or how many exercises to assign as homework. Base your decision on your students’ progress.
The first reading in the reader
The remaining exercises in the activity book
The reading for the next lesson in the student book
If you have time, end the class with a song of your own composition. For example, you could adapt one of the first songs they have learned “this is the Way we…”Ask the students to sing and act along:
This is the way we end our class
End our class
End our class
This is the way we end our class
For the first day of school.
Teaching tips
假设有一个美国学生想了解中国初中学生的学习和生活状况,四个学生一组,一个学生模拟外国学生提问题,其他三个学生回答.先讨论自己最感兴趣的问题,不能回答的问题,可向全班寻求帮助.
教师提前让学生准备假期里的照片和读过的书籍,并且准备一篇小发言稿,谈谈自己的暑假生活.
