Period 3 lesson plan for using language
(THE REST OF ELIAS’ STORY)
Introduction
Language is learned to be used in and for communication. So in this period we shall have the students not only listen but also read and write in English. The most attention goes to reading and writing.
Objectives
■To help the students listen about the same topic as is read in the first period
■To help students read another passage about the same person covered in the first period
■To help students write an imaginary letter making use of the learned words and structures Procedures
1. Warming up by listening
We have read a story about Elias. Do you remember why it was difficult for him to get a job? Yes, you are right. He didn’t have a passbook. But what is a passbook? Why is it imp ortant?
Let’s listen to a short passage and find out. Now turn to page 38. Listen to the tape for the text.
2. Reading and copying
On page 38 you see a passage entitle THE REST OF ELIAS’ STORY. Go over it to find the sentences you can’t understand. And c opy down all the useful expressions at the same time.
3. Acting a text dialogue
Next we are going to do a group activity. We will do it in groups of four. Suppose one of you is Elias and works as a tour guide. The other three of you are tourists who are very interested in the prison and Mandela’s life.
4. Doing a guided writing task
⑴Preparing for writing
Imagine now Mr Mandela is in prison. If you are going to write a letter to the President of South Africa asking him to free Nelson Mandela, what would be included? Do you remember the format of a letter? What should be the main content of this letter? How would you try to persuade the president?
Now go over Life of Nelson Mandela on page 39 for any useful information.
⑵Writing the letter
5. Closing down by sharing
To end this period share your letter with your partners and make necessary changes.。
