Unit 5 Zhalong A special place于红亮Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Today, I feel honored to have the chance to share my ideas about how to teach reading.In the reading process, I will focus on students’ long-term development and enable them to use proper reading skills and strategies. In other words, students are guided to read efficiently and independently.My teaching plan will include 8 sections. They’re analysis of the reading material, talking something about students, identifying the teaching aims ,teaching importance&difficulties, teaching strategies, teaching aids, teaching procedures and blackboard design.Section 1 Analysis of the teaching materialThis Unit is the 6th unit in 8上published by Oxford University Press (China) Limited . This English textbook for junior school learners was compiled of different topics, which touches almost every aspect of life. It lays stress on the communicative and language abilities. The topic birds is very close to students’ daily life. So the topic fits them very well. Its level of complexity lies within the learners’ ZPD. On the other hand, among all the six books there are three units talking about animals. They are 7B Unit 6, 8A Unit 4 and 8A Unit 5. In 7B Unit6, we mainly talk about the animals’ appearance, qualities, food, home, likes and likes. In 8A Unit 4 we add to ability, character and dangers. In this unit we add to how to protect animals and the environment. Section 2 talking something about studentsNeed: not only protecting the environment but also English plays a very important role in their later career, the course also offers some goals that learners must achieve.Interests: most students are young, active and energetic. They like pets very much. Many of them are bird fans; they are very interested in watching birds.Previous knowledge: Students have learned some information about animals from 7B Unit 6 and 8A Unit 4.Motivation: extrinsic motivation is that they have to pass the English exam. The intrinsic motivation is the fun of learning. It should be produced by some activities. According to linguist Stevens, the more the lessons focus on things with real-life relevance the more they appeal to the Learners, and the better chance of having learners wanting to learn.So the ZPD of learners is that they have some basic knowledge about animals, but at present it is not easy for them to talk about how to protect them in English fluently, and their birds vocabulary is limited.Section 3 Indentifying the teaching aimsBased on the analysis of the teaching material, I have chosen the following as the teaching aims of my lesson:The 1st aim: students can understand the vocabulary related to birds, meanwhile they can get the expressions about how to ask about sports and give responses. Of course, at the end, they can improve their listening and speaking abilities.The 2nd aim: Students learn the reading skills and strategies.The process and method used in this section are pair-work and discussion.The 3rd aim: by the discussion students can form the awareness of protecting the animals andnature reserves.Section 4 teaching importance & difficulties1. According to the demands of new syllabus, this section mainly focuses on the following: Students should master the vocabulary related to birds, they can also understand and consolidate the expressions about wildlife, what’ more, they should catch the details while listening to the material.2. According to studen ts’ cognitive background, the difficulties in this section are as follows: students must express their ideas about birds and they should talk about their attitudes towards environment with their friends.Section 5 teaching strategiesSince the teaching objectives and focuses and difficulties have been specified, the following teaching strategies are mainly used in this section: Situational approach, communicative approach and interactive approachesAs to the learning strategies, meta-cognitive strategy, cognitive strategy and social/affective strategy are mainly used. The meta-cognitive strategy includes self-management, self-monitoring and self-evaluation; the cognitive strategy includes auditory-representation, contextualization and elaboration, meanwhile cooperation is used as one of the social/affective strategies. Section 6 teaching aids : a recorder, a computer, a projector and a blackboardSection 7 Teaching proceduresIn order to achieve the teaching aims mentioned above, I decide to choose guided reading and Task-Based Teaching as the main teaching approach. With the teaching methods, I can guide students to use effective reading strategies to comprehend the text, solve problems and complete different tasks. The teaching procedures include 4 parts.They’re pre-reading, while-reading, post-reading and homework.Part 1. Getting ready （pre-reading）Reading begins before a book is opened. It’s important to activate students’ existing background knowledge and draw their attention to the topic of the text. In this part, I will use the pre-reading activities to increase students’ concentration, arouse their curiosities, fire their imagination and give them a purpose for reading. The part consists of two tasks:Task 1: In this step I will play a video named a true story. It is about a college student Who lost her life in the wetland for saving a red-crowned crane. Then ask the students which bird the song is about. Students should answer “the red-crowned crane”.(With the task, I arouse the students’ curio sities and fire their imagination draw their attention to the theme of the reading material and get them ready for the following reading.)Task 2: Another question is where red-crowned cranes live in China.Ask students to listen to the tape and then answ er this question. They should answer “zhalong”. (With the task, I draw their attention to the theme of the reading material and get them ready for the following reading.)Part 2. Focusing on main facts （while-reading）First ReadingSkimming for main ideaReading Skills---Skimming(阅读技巧-略读)Run over the text quickly. Do not read every word. Try to understand the main ideas.迅速浏览课文。
