2. New structures: I would like to join the Birdwatching Society.
I will be very happy if I can become a member of the Birdwatching Society.
III. Focus of the lesson and predicted area of difficulty
Understand the organization of an application letter and the outline of the main body.
Develop the skill of writing attractive and effective ideas related to the topic and form the good habit of keeping the purpose of writing in mind while writing.
IV. Teaching procedures
Step 1 Lead-in
1. Show some amazing facts about birds
T: In this unit, we learnt many kinds of birds. Do you still remember them? (The teacher shows
some pictures about birds the students have already known.) There are also some other
amazing birds in the world. For example, the swan has about 25,000 feathers. It has the most feathers of all the birds in the world. Here, I’ve given some numbers under the bird pictures. Do you know anything amazing about them? (The teacher shows three more pictures about birds the students may not know.)
2. Introduce Hong Kong Birdwatching Society (HKBWS)
T: These amazing birds interest many birdwatchers around the world. HKBWS is one of the most famous among them. Let’s get to know more. (The teacher asks some students to read a short passage about HKBWS.)
T: I have more pictures about HKBWS to share with you. Let’s have a look at what we can do in the Birdwatching Society. (The teacher shows students some pictures about HKBWS.)
T: From its homepage, I also download this year’s activity plan of HKBWS. How many kinds of activities! Do you want to join it?
【设计意图】利用“鸟类之最”之趣,激发学生学习的热情与积极性。一方面,香港观鸟会真实语境的导入有利于提高学生的学习兴趣;另一方面语篇和词汇的输入为学生之后的写作搭建了词汇支架。
Step 2 Presentation
1. What makes an application form
T: If we want to join HKBWS, the first thing we have to do is to complete an application form. Here is part of an application form from HKBWS, can you find out what information we need to offer?
T: Besides all the general information, we also need to give more additional (额外的) information to show we are really interested in or prepared for the Bird Watching Society.
T: And here is why we need to offer the information and some advice we should pay attention to when filling in the application form.
2. Fast reading for information
T: Now, you have two minutes to read Amy's application letter quickly and then help her complete the application form on page 78. Let’s check the answers together.
3. Further reading for organization
T: Let’s read Amy’s letter again and find out the organization of an application. They are greeting, closing, signature and the main body.
T: How many paragraphs are there in the main body of Amy’s letter? (4 paragraphs) Please read
the main body of Amy's letter and try to match the main idea with each paragraph. (The
teacher asks some students to give their answers with the help of key words in each
paragraph.)
T: Just now, you’ve got the main ideas of each paragraph. When we are writing an application letter, we can borrow some useful sentences from Amy’s letter and then use them directly at the beginning of each paragraph. Then we give our own self-introduction, reasons to join the Birdwatching Society and contact ways to make up our special application letter.
