Teaching aims Accordin
3、g to the new standard curriculum and the syllabus, after studying the teaching material and analyzing the rule of childrens growing of mind, I conclude the following teaching aims.a). Knowledge aims: students are able to grasp the content of the text. students are able to acquire and remember variou
4、s sequencing words, such as ,one day, then, afterwards etc. b). Ability aims: to read sections of a story and sequence then use prediction strategies and linking words. to develop the students ability of using wordbuilding techniques to form nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs. c).

5、o make students form an objective attitude towards the sea.3.Key points and difficult points in teaching Students may be unfamiliar with activities in which they have to sequence text and have problems analyzing some sentence patterns. So it is important to encourage them to make prediction accordin
6、g to the context . .The analysis of students After two-year study, the students have certain knowledge background and have adapted themselves to English learning through various activities, in addition, they have acquired some independent and cooperative learning abilities.

7、ol students are not so active in class activities. Therefore, in order to encourage the students to act more actively, group and individual work will run through the whole lesson to promote the students participation in the class activities .

8、urages the students in English learning through various activities, so the task-based approach is preferred.

9、eaching procedures How to present the students the lesson is basically shown in the fourth part, Teaching procedures, I divide the whole process into five steps. Step1.lead in As the well known saying goes, interest is the best teacher. so it is necessary to apply the method of interest stimulating
10、to have students involve themselves into the lesson actively. So I present them with some pictures and enable them to answer the questions just like the following: would you please name the following films? & what the stories are about? 1975 Names : Jaws Titanic The first two pictures are from the f
11、ilm Jaws. The film is bout a big white shark that attacks swimmers who are spending their holidays in a small village. the last two pictures are from Titanic , which is the wonderful ship-Titanic. When it was sailing to America, it sank into the sea. Most of the people in the ship died. Step2 Pre-re
12、ading The lead in may well attract students interests to the sea stories ,then it is time for me to introduce the topic of this lesson, sea stories. To start with , Id like to develop the studentsability of prediction with the pictures beside the paragraphs and make up a word bank describing the pic
13、tures on their own . Words Bank, for example, Nouns: sea ,whirlpool, barrel, brothers, Adjectives : violent, flat, clear, shining Verbs : escape, tie.to.,Step 3 Fast reading Students are required to find out the main idea of the text as well as putting the three separate paragraphs into right order
14、in a short time. task one: Have students read the three paragraphs ,pay close attention to the linking words, for example : one day, suddenly, all at once, some time after, soon afterwards, in the end. Task two: To decide a possible order for the paragraphs. To read them in that order to see if the
15、story makes sense,Step4 Careful reading Students are given 10 mins to read the text carefully, as listening to the tape, they can follow it to correct pronunciation and improve listening. and then add more words to the Words Bank Nouns: sea ,whirlpool, barrel, fisherman, terror Adjectives : violent,
16、 flat, clear, shining , enormous, clam ,terrible Verbs : escape, tie.to., terrify , save Step5.post - reading After reading the test by skimming and scanning, I will apply varieties of exercises to check students efficiency and the degree to which they grasp the usage of linking words and wordbuildi
17、ng skills. The exercise is followed by my explanation of language points and grammar. 1.Exercise True or False ,which may examine the degree to which students get the detailed information from the text and improve the comprehension ability. 2. Exercise Fill in the blanks with the given linking words
18、, which may lead students to pay attention to the sequencing words and use them properly.1. The writer was an old man.2. In the whirlpool, only the writer survived. Both of his two brothers died.FExcise1 True or FalsewasntT (1) _ in 1964, Robet Le Serrec was sailing near the coast of Pacific Islands

21、guage points: new words and expressions: e.g. make sense 有意义，说的通 what he said really made sense. useful grammar :(we have talked a lot about non defining relative clause during the last lessons), therefore it is no longer as the importance in this lesson): e.g. Ive never been in Beijing, which is th
22、e capital of china Step6 Discussion Retell the story with the help of the following words: one day, suddenly, soon afterwards, in the end. group works to discuss the question: what would you do in the situation same as the one in the text? . Blackboard design Black board design should be considered for a thing to attract students attention and enable them to write down the important teaching points. I generally divide the whole board into two parts, the left part is for vocabulary and phrases while the middle one for language points and grammar.
