IELTS writing task 1---- Line graph
Teaching plan
Teaching aim: students grasping the idea and skills of writing a line graph
Key points: verbs and adjectives of describing a line, typical sentence structures used in a line graph
Difficult point: paragraphing, comparing two lines and find out the similarities and/or differences between them
Teaching procedure:
1 Homework discussion:
2 Teaching and learning
1) Pre-task: Students have been asked to find out words which have the similar meaning with “increase”, “decrease”, “remain the same”, “the highest point”, “ the lowest point”
2) During task:
Step one—analyze the graph
①How to read a line graph
●What does the instruction say?
●What does the title tell you?
●What does the X-axis tell you? What is the unit of these numbers?

●Are there any notes?
●What does each of the lines stand for?
②Important figures
●What are the highest points ?
●What are the lowest points ?
●At what number does the line start ?
●At what number does the line end?
●Are there any special points?
③What to summarize and compare
●What is the general trend of the two lines respectively?
●What are the most noticeable similarities and/or differences these two lines have ?
Step two—decide how many paragraphs you are going to write
Paragraph one—introduce the topic and summarize the main feature, stating the general trend Paragraph two—describe the first line and summarize its main feature
Paragraph three —describe the second line and summarize its main feature
Paragraph four—conclude/state the main feature (shouldn’t be exactly the same with the introduction)
Language points:
Important verbs and phrases
increase, go up, rise up, grow up,
jump up, surge, shoot up, soar
decrease, go down, decline, fall down, drop, sink,
slump, plummet,
reach the peak/top/highest point increase to the peak/top/highest point

Important sentence structures
①The number of … increases /declines…from… to… at …
②There is a steady increase/decline in the … from…to…
③The time from…to…witnesses a steady increase/decline in the number of…from…to…
④…, which precedes a decrease/increase=which is followed by…=which leads to…
⑤…(time), when/preposition + which..
⑥Comparing:
however/on the contrary/on the other hand/while/whereas/in contrast to
⑦Similarly/likewise; A similar tendency is…
Example:
The graph below shows the demand for electricity in England during typical days in winter and summer.
Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
There is a steady decline in the demand of electricity from 17,000 units at 0:00 to 12,000 units at 9:00 am in summer.
The summer needs level out from 13:00 pm to about 18:00, which is followed by a slight rise after that until around 19:00 pm.
(The students will be asked to make sentences with the structures above)
Paragraph one:
Paraphrase the instruction using synonyms to substitute words from the instruction. For example:
country=nation proportion=percentage information=data number=amount family=household males=men
females=women
kinds=types
demand=need university=college show=describe, illustrate, reveal categories=kinds
some=certain
the UK=Britain
between and=from to
status=condition
stages=steps
spending=expenditure
reasons=causes
different=distinct
The figure given illustrates electricity demands in Britain during a typical day in winter and summer. It illustrates that the demand in winter is almost twice that in summer.
Paragraph two:
The electricity demands in winter and summer witness a fluctuating trend during these 24 hours. (summarize the information…)In winter, the demand for electricity is about 35,000 units at midnight. There is an increase in daily demand for electricity from 35,000 units at 0.00 to 40,000 units at 3.00, which is closely followed by a steady decrease. At about 8.00, the electricity demand bottoms out at 30,000 units. After that, it peaks at 45,000 units at 22.00. However, there is a drop
Paragraph three:
As for the electricity demand in summer days, …(select and report the main features…)
The electricity demand peaks at 20,000 units at about 15.00. It is 25,000 units less than that in winter. (make comparisons…)
Paragraph four :
…..
Homework: finish paragraph two, three, and four.
Description 描写 Description is a mental process, a way of perceiving objects in space and time. As it pertains to composition, description is a way of picturing images verbally in speech or writing and of arranging those images in logical or associational pattern. Generally, description is concerned with people, places, and things. But in academic writing, especially in IELTS, you have to write a simple description of an object, a process or some data. According to this requirement, two writing techniques are mainly concerned in IELTS when writing a description. They are: static description and process description. Static Description (静物描述) Very often we have to describe the appearance or layout of something. We shall refer to this as static description. In IELTS, you may be required to write a description about an aerosol container, a camera or a microwave oven. When describing such things a number of features may be contained: shape, size, color, location of parts and condition. Usually in writing static description the following principles should be observed: (1)Your description should be well organized, eg general to particular, more important to less important, front to back, top to bottom, etc. (2)You should offer the reader a clear picture in his mind of what you are describing (3)The details must be correct (4)You ought to stick to the important parts. A Relay A relay is a switching device for opening and closing one or more electrical circuits on receipt of an electric signal. A simple kind of relay consists of two parts: a switch in high voltage circuit which is operated by a spring loaded armature and a low voltage electro-magnetic circuit The electro-magnet comprises a soft iron core shaped like a horseshoe. Each arm of the core has a coil would around it. The coils are connected to each other and to a battery through an on\off switch. In writing static description, the following words are quite useful: above below over underneath at the front of at the back to the left to the right in the middle near close to apart on top of at the foot of at the base of at the bottom of on the side on the other side within inside circle vertical line hyperbolic curve Process Description (过程描述) A process is a series of actions ,changes ,functions, steps, stages, procedures, or operations that bring about a particular end or result. Like narration, process suggests ongoing movement and continuous action. The rhetorical structure of a process may be conveyed by a simple pattern: Introduction (thesis) Step 1 Step 2 Conclusion ( summary and so forth) Describing How to Do Something In describing how to do something the main thing is to arrange the information so that
Distance learning and online computer courses would replace traditional classroom learning. Descriptions of the changes wrought by the information revolution have scientifically proven how advanced and civilized our society is becoming. Recently, New York Times published a lengthy article on the University of Phoenix --- a virtual university that offers accredited degrees for coursework performed entirely on the Internet. However, some people doubt if this trend will bring us benefits. Admittedly, from an enlightened and pragmatic perspective, I, personally, would assert that it's the time for alternative teaching methodologies to take the leading position from traditional classroom learning. Not only the supporters of alternative learning, but also, I suppose, all of us could not deny the time-effectiveness and individualization that it brings to us. Unlike the traditional classroom learning which requires students to physically participate in class , distance learning and online computer courses allow students who for various reasons could not come to the classroom to customize their class schedules. For instance, a single working mother, who has to work full-time in order to pay checks, cannot fit the curriculum schedule in a real classroom, but might have a larger possibility to enroll some courses through distance learning and online computer courses. That is, alternative learning styles turn the "mission impossible" in old days into a real and practical action right now. Besides, it is alternative learning styles that enhance the quality and efficiency of individual learning. In most cases, alternative learning styles outweigh traditional classroom learning for one noticeable success that problem-solving process where most students have learning difficulties and problems is highly highlighted. In traditional classrooms, class time is given so limited for teachers to identify students'

小学综合实践活动《感恩父母》案例 一、确定课题（教师讲话录像） 在一次《感恩父母》的主题班会上，当谈到“滴水之恩当涌泉相报，我们应孝敬感恩父母时”发现了许多问题。有的说父母的养育子女是应该的，有的说没必要欠他们的亲情，等他们老了，我们还得照顾他们。而且争议很大。有一个学生突然提议：“我们把这些问题当作这一学期的小课题进行研究不是更好吗？”其余学生积极响应，于是《感恩父母》的课题研究产生了。 二、制定方案 确定了课题接下来开始制定研究方案。（室内录像） 师：同学们，大家都看看自己的衣服，是谁给买的、做的？ 生：爸爸、妈妈、爷爷、奶奶。 师：父母是我们最亲最近的人，他们为了我们的成长付出很多，我们应该感谢他们。所以，我们这学期的课题研究就是《感恩父母》。你想知道、研究哪方面的内容。 生：感恩父母是中华民族的传统美德，我想知道古代人是怎么孝敬的。（上网查询：二十四孝故事），〈黄香温席〉 生：我想知道父母为我们付出的艰辛。（医院：十月怀胎、养育、敬老院） 生：我想知道现在的大人、孩子是如何感恩父母的？（采访大人、发放调查问卷）〈小品〉 生：我想知道感恩父母的诗、歌有哪些？（图书室查资料）〈诗朗诵、感恩的心〉。 师：请同学们分别到自己感兴趣的课题研究小组制定自己的研究方案吧。 分组制定研究方案（提前备好成品） 三、分头行动

雅思写作最失败的文章开头 废话连篇不知所云（喷血指数：☆☆☆） 典型失败案例：Topic 1-Should college students be allowed to get married? This topic is very interesting. I'm very interested in talking about this topic. Because I'm also a college student and I'm not married…… 修改方案：开门见山直奔主题 In my opinion, it would not be a wise decision to allow college students to get married. Topic 2-Will modern technology, such as the Internet, ever replace the book or the writing word as the sole source of information? （雅思真题） Ok, this topic is a very good topic. First, let me tell you a story: I have a friend, he likes go on the internet very much. Every day, he uses internet to read news or play internet games.

综合实践活动教案一 活动主题：我们身边的塑料 一、活动背景：塑料从诞生到现在虽算不上历史悠久，但塑料制品却已遍布世界各个角落，成为我们日常生活中离不开的东西。塑料的发明极大地方便了人类的生活，但也给自然环境造成了很大污染。认识塑料，了解塑料不仅能使孩子们加强实践能力、拓展知识面，而且活动的过程中还能加强环保意识。因此设计了本次活动。 二、活动目标： 1、使同学们具有关注社会、关注自然的良好品质，加强同学们的环保意识。 2 、培养孩子们的实践能力和创新意识，拓展知识面。 3 、培养孩子们善于观察力、善于发现、善于思考的学习品质和参与活动的积极性、自信心。 三、活动过程:创设活动情境： 1、很高兴又和同学们一起进行综合实践活动，让我们一起关注生活，走进科学。教师说：在上周，我在上下班的路上留意到一种现象，其实这种现象平时也存在，只是这回格外的触动我，是什么呢？我们一起来看看。出示照片。 2、你们觉得在我们生活中这种现象多吗？哪来那么多塑料袋呢？你们有没有过这种现象呢？在我们泰州，生活中有很多陋习人们都已经习以为常了。什么叫陋习？不文明的、不合理的习惯。比如；（让学生说）随地吐痰、顺手扔垃圾等但很少有人觉得不正常，是不是？但往往正是因为人们不以为然、满不在乎才会导致严重的后果，你们说对吗？ 3、现在我给同学们挖一个智力陷阱，看你会不会身陷其中？怎么样，敢不敢接招？请听题（音乐2下）：白纸、白布废弃后是不是“白色污染”？（同学们说一说自己所了解的“白色污染”）目前，“白色污染”困扰着世界上许多个国家确确实实为我们人类出了一大难题，但是，这个难题被我攻克了。 我决定：向联合国卫生组织倡议一下：世界各国一律禁止生产塑料制品，你们看咋样？ 4、学生一定会就塑料的好处发表看法。教师也可拿实物对同学们进行提示：吉他、跳绳等。 照片：百叶窗、电视、滑板车、钢琴、汽车方向盘等。 教师将准备好的教具贴在黑板上：吃、喝、穿、玩儿、乐器、装饰材料、交通工具、家用电器、家具、农业等。 教师说：看来，塑料在我们生活中真是无处不在。塑料在我们的生活中应用这么广，它是不是有什么特殊的本领呢？它的诞生给我们人类带来的到底是祸还是福呢？怎么样？想进一步了解塑料吗？先给我们这次活动起一个主题吧！ 5、确立活动主题的名字 6、给同学们思考讨论的时间，明确自己最想探究的内容。教师下去指导，适当引导同学们拓展思路。 7、全班同学进行交流，提出问题。教师将其一一写在黑板上。指导同学们自己进行归纳整理。
Lesson 2: Introductions ---- Four types of questions 1. Discussion Some people think that it is more effective for students to study in groups, while others believe that it is better for them to study alone. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Topic- study in groups or alone Answer- sometimes better alone, usually better in a group People have different views about the effectiveness of group study as opposed to working alone. While there are some benefits to studying independently, I believe that group work is usually more productive. 2. Opinion Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programmers. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Topic- community service for all teenagers Answer- 3 choice (agree, disagree, balanced opinion) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. (agree) I completely agree that this kind of scheme would be a good idea. (disagree) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. In my opinion, it would be wrong to force teenagers to do any kind of unsalaried work. (want mention both side) It is sometimes argued that high school students should be made to do some work in their local communities. While I disagree with the idea of making such programmers compulsory, I do believe that voluntary community service could benefit young people. 3. Problem and solution Some people reoffend after they have been punished. Why do some people continue to commit crimes after they have been punished, and what measures can be taken to tackle this problem? Topic- criminals reoffend Answer- several reasons, a variety of measures (government, communities) It is true that punishments do not always deter criminals from committing more crimes. There are various reasons why offenders repeatedly break the law, but governments could certainly take steps to address this issue. 4. Two-part question As most people spend a major part of their adult life at work, job satisfaction is an important element of individual well-being. What factors contribute to job satisfaction? How realistic is the expectation of job satisfaction for all workers? Topic- job satisfaction Answer- several factors, unrealistic / impossible Work plays a central role in our lives, and we would all like to feel fulfilled professionally. While a variety of factors may lead to job satisfaction, it would be unrealistic to expect everyone to be happy at work.
