Then they will be reading the text focusing on its forms and structures. Information transform devices are u sed in teaching reading.Three “Warming Up” designs are presented in this book for teachers’ reference. Computer and overhead projector may be used to aid the teaching and learning.Objectives■To help students learn to express prohibition and warning■To help students learn to read an exposition about Australia■To help students better understand “Australia”■To he lp students learn use some important words and expressions■To help students identify examples of the predicative <words, phrases, nonfinites, clauses> in the text Focusmore than 170 different kinds of snake and 115 of thAidsMultimedia facilities, tape-recorder, photos,diagramsProcedures1. Warming up⑴Warming up by leaning something about Commonwealth of AustraliaAboriginal settlers arrived on the continent from Southeast Asia about 40,000 years before the first Europeans began exploration in the 17th century. No formal territorial claims were made until 1770, when Capt. James COOK took possession in the name of Great Britai n. Six colonies were created in the late 18th and 19th centuries; they federated and became the Commonwealth of Australia in 1901. The new country took advantage of its natural resources to rapidly develop agricultural and manufacturing industries and to make a major contribution to the British effort in World Wars I and II. In recent decades, Australia has transformed itself into an internationally competitive, advanced market economy. It boasted one of the OECD's fastest growing economies during the 1990s, a performance due in large part to economic reforms adopted in the 1980s. Long-term concerns include pollution, particularly depletion of the ozone layer, and management and conservation of coastal areas, especially the Great Barrier Reef⑵Warming up by looking and sayingLook at the photo? What is it?Yes, it is a Tammar Wallaby. The Tammar Wallaby is a small member of the kangaroo family and is the type species for research on kangaroos and marsupials.They are found on offshore islands on the South Australian and Western Australian coast. They are classified as vermin on Kangaroo Island, where they seasonally breed up to large numbers and damage the echidna habitat on the island.Tammar Wallabies are also found in New Zealand where they were transported from the South Australian mainland population which has since been driven to extinction by feral cats and foxes.Also known as the Darma Wallaby, the Tammar Wallaby's small size (approx 8kg, similar to a large cat) and ease of keeping in captivity makes it a popular zoo animal.⑶Warming up by listening to THE SONG OF AUSTRALIATHE SONG OF AUSTRALIAThere is a land where summer skiesAre gleaming with a thousand dyes,Blending in witching harmonies, in harmonies;And grassy knoll, and forest height,Are flushing in the rosy light,And all above in azure bright -Australia!There is a land whe re honey flows,Where laughing corn luxuriant grows,Land of the myrtle and the rose,On hill and plain the clust'ring vine,Is gushing out with purple wine,And cups are quaffed to thee and thine -Australia!There is a land where treasures shineDeep in the dark unfathomed mine,For worshippers at Mammon's shrine,Where gold lies hid, and rubies gleam,And fabled wealth no more doth seemThe idle fancy of a dream -Australia!There is a land where homesteads peepFrom sunny plain and woodland steep,And love and joy bright vigils keep,Where the glad voice of childish gleeIs mingling with the melodyFor nature's hidden minstrelsy -Australia!There is a land where, floating free,From mountain top to girdling sea,A proud flag waves exultingly,And freedom's sons the banner bear,No shackled slave can breathe the air,Fairest of Britain's daughters fair -Australia!2. Pre-reading by reading the text aloudReading aloud to yourself (from books that are age and content appropriate) is an excellent way to familiarize you with a new language.It is impossible to read and comprehend what you read unless you already know most of the vocabulary included in the reading. So let’s go to the vocabulary list first to make a story out of the list, using your knowledge of English grammar and your imagination of life events.3.

Unit 3 AustraliaPart One: Teaching DesignPeriod 1: A sample lesson plan for reading(GLIMPSES OF AUSTRALIA and others)AimsTo help students develop their reading abilityTo help students learn about AustraliaProcedures■Warming up by leaning something about Commonwealth of AustraliaThe Commonwealth of Australia is a country in the Southern Hemisphere comprising the world's smallest continent and a number of islands in the Southern, Indian and Pacific Oceans. Australia's neighbouring countries are Indonesia, East Timor and Papua New Guinea to the north, the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and New Caledonia to the northeast, and New Zealand to the southeast. The continent of Australia has been inhabited for over 40,000 years by Indigenous Australians. After sporadic visits by fishermen from the north and by European explorers and merchants starting in the 17th century, the eastern half of the continent was claimed by the British in 1770 and officially settled as the penal colony of New South Wales on 26 January 1788. As the population grew and new areas were explored, another five largely self-governing Crown Colonies were successively established over the course of the 19th century.On 1 January 1901, the six colonies federated and the Commonwealth of Australia was formed. Since federation, Australia has maintained a stable liberal democratic political system and remains a Commonwealth Realm. The current population of around 20.4 million is concentrated mainly in the large coastal cities of Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.■Warming up by looking and sayingLook at the photo? What is it?Yes, it is a Tammar Wallaby.
