So in this period we shall have the students read, listen, write and speak in English, making use of the focused words, expressions, structures and topic ideas covered in this unit. Warming up by reading school jokes comes first to be followed by reading and underlining and doing the exercises. Guided speaking and writing will lead to the end of the period: closing down by acting.ObjectivesTo enjoy reading the paragraph of Jokes about Sherlock Holmes and Doctor WatsonTo learn to use the language by reading, listening, speaking and writingProcedures1. Warming upWarming up by reading school jokesThere are lots of jokes in English about school life. Read one to see whether you will laugh or not. 用原版2. Reading and underliningRead the paragraph and underline all the useful expressions or collocations in it. Copy them into your notebook after class as homework.3. Doing the exerciseNow you are going to do the exercise 1 on page 22.4. Guided SpeakingThink of funny stories in English and tell them to your group mates.5. Guided Writing—Learn to write jokesThere are two main parts to the structure of a joke. The first part prepares you for the laugh by telling a story which creates a sense of expectation. The second part of the joke, the punch line, provokes laughter by telling an unexpected and different story, yet one which is still compatible with the first, as in this example: “My wife just ran off with my best friend. Boy, do I miss him.” and “I had a mud pack facial done, and for three days my face loo ked much better. Then the mud fell off.” Notice the assumption that is made in both these examples. In the first, you assume the person telling the story is angry with his wife, so the punch line surprises you because he's feeling something different and unexpected. Again, in the second example, you'd most likely assume the mud had been removed, leaving the face looking better, so the punch line takes you by surprise.So, to write jokes you need to practice reading statements and writing down the assumptions you make about them. You must be able to interpret the statement (first story line) in at least two different ways in order to provide the second, different story i.e. the punch line. And what to write about? Anything that interests you. Anything you have strong opinions about.Now write down your own jokes, in English.6. Closing down by actingActing out the text is a strategy for motivating us to read out loud the text. We need oral practice and help with pronunciation and so acting out the text really helps us.To end this period, we are going to act the film by Charlie Chaplin, The Great Dictator.。
