Teaching Design
Teacher: Chen Si (Alice Chen) Period: Period 1 Type: Reading Duration: 40 min
The analysis of teaching material
The passage is the reading part from 2d, section B, unit 4. The topic of the passage is students’ stress from after-school classes and parents. It mainly introduces parents’ different opinions about giving much pressure on children and doctors’ ideas.
The passage consists of 4 paragraphs. The first paragraph is a general introduction of the current situation of Both American and Chinese students’ study stress.
Para.2-3 introduces two American moms’ ideas about sending kids to after-school classes or activities. One agrees, while the other disagrees.
The last paragraph tells of doctors’ ideas. They advise giving kids more time to relax.
In previous lessons, students have listened to Wei Ming’s stress and talked about their own. So the topic is not new. But there are some new words that need to be understood and mastered. The analysis of learning condition
The students are familiar with the topic and my teaching style. Most of them are active,
quick-minded and willing to show themselves. They’re used to answering questions in English. In previous study, they have mastered some reading strategies and skills. So it’s not very difficult for them to understand the passage. As a teacher, I need prepare challenge-able tasks to encourage their interest in reading and create chances for them to share their opinions. Learning objectives 1. Language Skills:

and find out specific information. Use the context to guessing the meaning of new words. (2) Master problem-solving skills.

Three-stage model: Based on the understanding of reading as an interactive process, the reading
process is divided into three stages by the layers of depth to develop the students’ reading efficiency and strategies. The three stages are pre-reading, while-reading and post-reading. Teaching procedures Step 1 Lead-in (4min)
