V. Teaching Procedures

Step 1.  Lead-in

1. Self-introduction. Both the teacher and students introduce ourselves.

【反思：】学生听得很认真，互相交流也很积极，达到了初步互相了解，解除陌生感的目的。

Step 2.  Objectives

1. Show the objectives of this period to the class.

2. Read the objectives together.

【反思：】目标清楚，而且这个时候已经完成了第一个目标，每个学生都知道这节课接下来要干什么。

Step 3.  School life in the UK

Activity 1. Brainstorming about what the school life in Senior High is like.

Activity2. Collecting answers from the students and group the answers according to the following aspects:

  School facilities              School hours

  Learning task                Teachers and classmate

  After-school activities

【反思：】学生开始有点拘束，不知道先答什么，因为毕竟是新生新班，所以一开始有点观望、等待的态度。但是开始第一组后马上就活跃啦。

Step 4. Learn about the school life in the UK

1.The teacher introduces some parts of high school life in the UK.

2. Students go through the four pictures. Encourage students to search online to find details of school life in the UK with the help of the cell-phones.

【反思：】学生对国外的学校生活确实不太了解，而且词汇有限，看了图也有点紧张。所以我临时调整，举例说明所以学生接下来很流畅。

Step 5. Compare the school life

        Students continue to search online about the two kinds of school lives.

【反思：】学生开始以为听错了，不敢使用手机，以为我是开玩笑，直到我很肯定他们立马就行动了。事实证明学生对这个环节很感兴趣，而且也查得非常认真，从后面的分享也看出来他们的确收获了很多知识。

Step 6. Presentation

1.List a chart showing the differences and similarities between school life in China and school life in the UK.

2.Students report what they have found in the pictures and online in groups.

【反思：】学生们的确用手机搜集了不少知识，而且分享也很积极，尽管表达中出现了些语法问题，但是还是刚进高一的新生，只要有热情，一切都可以提高。这个分享达到了再学习的目的。

Step 7. Designing an ideal school

1. [Group work] Ask Ss to work in groups and design an ideal school, which should cover at least three aspects of the following:

  School facilities/School hours         Learning task

  Teachers and classmate              After-school activities

2. Ask Ss to present their ideal schools.

3. Vote for the two favorite dream schools.

 【反思：】对比两种不同的学校生活，设计出自己心目中理想的学校是本节课的重点，每个同学两票投给自己最喜欢的学校。这就要求学生互相观察对比每一组的设计，这个环节重在激发学生的创新精神和正能量学习。每个组都完成的比较好。

Step 8. Feedback

【反思：】因为时间有点紧张，所以集体逐条检查任务完成。第二大组获得本节课最佳小组，家庭作业可以少做一题。

整堂课自认为很好的完成了教学任务，最大的亮点是几乎每个学生都积极参与，另外全堂课都设计了小组竞赛：每一个学生回答问题，积极参与各种活动都可以为本组获得积分，整节课得分最高的小组可以少做一道家庭作业，获胜组的同学非常开心，也可以调动每个学生的积极性。
