1. Communicative teaching method
2. Audio-visual teaching method
3. Task-based” teaching method
As we all know: the main instructional aims of learning English in the Middle School is to cultivate students’ abilities of listening, speaking, reading, writing and their good sense of the English language. So in this lesson I’ll mainly use “Communicative” teaching method, “Audio-visual” teaching method and “Task-based” teaching method. That is to say, I’ll let the Ss to get a better understanding of the key structure of the dialogue. I’ll give the Ss some tasks and arrange five kinds of activities: talking, guessing games, watching CAI, acting out Sample A and having a competition.
Teaching special features
To use these methods are helpful to develop the Ss’ thought.
Part Three STUDYING WAYS
1.Teach the Ss how to be successful language learners.
2.Let the Ss pass "Observation-Imitation-Practice " to study language.
3.Teach the Ss how to master dialogues and how to communicate with others.
Teaching special features:
Let the Ss communicate with each other and adopt competition methods to develop the Ss’ keen interest in English.
Part Four Teaching Procedure
I’ll finish this lesson in four steps. First I’ll divide the Ss into four groups and bring a competition into the class. At last let’s see which group is the winner.
Step1 Warm-up
1. Free talk between T and Ss .
Such as: Hi, I’m . . . . What’s your name?
This is …. How do you do?
Who is he/she? How are you?
Who can count from 1to 5?
What’s this in English? etc.
2.A game: Ask the Ss to give T some school things. For example:
T: Give me your book.(ruler, box, pen, table, knife, etc.)
T: This is your book. This is not my book. It’s your book. etc.
In this course I’ll ask them to make a dialogue group by group without repetition. Find out which group will make the most dialogues.
Purpose of my designing: I think it is important to form a better English learning surrounding for the Ss by imitating and at the same time it is necessary to provide situations to review learned knowledge.
Step2. Presentation
This course is very important. I’ll mainly talk about this step.
I’ll use CAI to present the whole dialogue. Arrange some situations to help Ss understand Sample A.
First scene: There is a bag on the floor. B is picking it up and get ready to leave. Now A is talking with B.
A: Hi, B. How are you today?
B: I’m fine, thank you. And you?
A: I’m fine, too. Oh, this is my bag.
B: No, this is not your bag. It’s my bag.
A: (Look closely) Oh, I’m sorry.
B: That’s all right.
(At the same time, C is running up and hitting A.)
C: Oh, I’m sorry.
A: That’s OK.
I’ll write the key points on the Bb while they are watching. After watching, I’ll teach them to read the words and sentences on the Bb. Make sure they can read them well.
Purpose of my designing: To present Sample A by CAI is much easier for the Ss to learn and grasp the meanings. CAI can provide a real situation with its sound and picture and it makes the relationships between the Ss better.
Step3.Practice
First play the tape recorder. Let the Ss listen and imitate the dialogue. Pay attention to their pronunciation and intonation. In this step the Ss are required to practise the Sample in pairs by reading the dialogue aloud. This step is employed to make the Ss grasp the Sample .At last I’ll ask the Ss to think hard and act it out with a partner according to Sample A. Then find out which group will act it out well. I’ll give them red stars.
Purpose of my designing: This step is employed to make the Ss get the general idea of the dialogue as a whole one. At the same time let the Ss have a chance to practise their listening and spoken ability.
Step4.Production
In this step I’ll give the Ss a free space to show their abilities.
Second scene: The Ss are having a picnic. It’s hot and they take off their coats and put them together. They are singing and dancing, laughing and chatting. After the picnic, they begin to look for their coats. D and E are talking. F and G are talking. etc.
After watching, I’ll give the Ss some tasks to make similar dialogues without repetition and find out which group will make more dialogues.
Purpose of my designing: “Task-based” teaching method is used here to develop the Ss’ ability of communication and also their ability of co-operation will be well trained. Tell the Ss we should be polite and take good care of our things. We should love our life. I think proper competition can arouse the Ss’ interest in English learning. If the Ss can finish this task well, they will benefit a lot in their spoken English.
2.Skill 1 Model 1.
I’ll ask four Ss of the groups to write these sentences on the Bb in the four lines.
Then check their handwriting, correct their mistakes. Find out who will write well and whose handing is the best.
3.Finish the Ss’ workbook.
Purpose of my designing: To check the knowledge Ss have learned in this lesson.
Step5.Homework:
(1)Recite the words as many as possible after class.
(2)Make a dialogue according to Sample A and write it in the exercise book.
Purpose of my designing: I think homework is so important that the Ss should speak English as much as they can in class or after class. It is necessary for the Ss to do some extensive exercises after class to consolidate the knowledge they learned.
