教学过程

1. Warm up game(8-10mins)

Sing the 10 little Indians song. Since the Indians in the song are different from the Indian we are going to discuss in the article. T introduces these two Indians and compares the countries they live and their tradition to build basic knowledge. At the same time, Ss will acquire new words like “India, Indian, Palace”

2. Vocabulary (15 mins)

1. Teach nouns together by using images.

In PPT12-13, Ss don’t have to look into the dictionary. They just need to directly link the English words with the real things. T helps to correct them if they have any concern. And practice compound words. Etc. I would suggest T emphasis the pronunciation, and practice if time is permitted. T can use flash card to play some flash card game. For example, in our traditional classes, Students sit in lines. T distributes a flash card to the first student of each line, and whisper the word on the flash card. When each line gets the flash card, T will let the first Ss pass the card to the Ss behind and say the word, then pass on. The line wins if the last S of the line shout out the word correctly the first.

2. Study new words with synonyms (PPT 14-16)

Ss will learn a new word easier from what they’ve known, or with connections.
a. number of VS amount of : Teacher uses the audio to help students read these expressions fluently. And make more sentences with students.

b. PPT 15, T uses the picture to let student understand we can use wise to describe what kinds of person. But leave a question for Ss to think during reading. We’ve learned smart, clever, and intelligent before,  can you tell what’s the different between these words after reading the story?

3. Reading and Comprehension (25-30)
