Teaching Procedures

Step 1 Warming up and lead-in

(1) Greet students.

(2) Ask students to watch a video about Easter Day and pay attention to the origin and the religion and how people celebrate it as well.

(3) After watching, ask them to share their ideas. And the teacher can tell the story about the Easter Day. Students will use proper sentences with the words “origin” “religion” and “celebrate” to answer the questions and grasp the meaning and usage of these words in the proper context.

【设计意图：通过播放节日相关的视频，可以调动学生的积极性，提高学生的学习兴趣。并通过生动有趣的情境，引入本课的重点单词：origin, religion, celebrate。】

Step 2 Presentation

(1) Ask students to find out the sentences with these words or similar form among them. Through observation, students can find out the nouns: “origin” and “religion” can become adjectives: “original” and “religious” by adding -al or -ous at the end of them. The verb form: “celebrate” can become noun by adding -(a)tion. Then the teacher can tell students that the different suffixes represent the different parts of speech. They can make full use of suffix and master more words. And then ask students to finish the exercise 1:

Noun - Adjectives Verb - Noun

Origin + -al = Original Celebrate + -(a)tion = Celebration

Religion + -ous = Religious

(2) Show students some sentences:

She loves the boy as though she were his mother.

The country looks as though it is covered with pink snow.

Ask students to try to guess the meaning of the phrase “as though...”, and they will grasp the usage of it, subjunctive mood and real mood. Other phrases such as “have fun with...”, “look forward to...” will be taught in the same way.

【设计意图：通过引导学生在语境中猜测词义和词性的方式学习单词，可以将原本枯燥的学习变得生动有趣，学生对知识的掌握也会更加牢固。此外，根据语境猜测词义也可以帮助学生在阅读中去推测出一些生词的含义，对文章理解有所帮助。】

Step 3 Practice

(1) Work with partners and finish the exercise 2: Fill in the blanks with words and expressions in the box.

(2) Work with partners and finish the exercise 3: Fill in the blanks and read the famous quotes, and think of any Chinese idioms or sayings that carry the same meaning. Then invite some students to share in front and the teacher can give some positive evaluations.

【设计意图：简单的单词练习，可以帮助学生逐渐巩固所学单词的用法，能够让他们在语境中感知单词的意义和搭配，达到学以致用的目的。】

Step 4 Production

Divide students in groups of 5 students and they will do a role-play game about different festivals and celebrations in 10 minutes. One is the reporter and the others are exchange students from different countries. Students are required to make a dialogue with the words and phrases we learned today and then act it out in front.

【设计意图：给学生创设真实的语境去练习所学词汇和句子，让他们能够做到理论与实际相结合，学会举一反三灵活应用。】

Summary

invite some students to review today’s new words and phrases and summarize what we have learned this class together.

Homework

【设计意图：学生协助教师进行总结不仅可以体现学生的主体地位，同时让学生进一步对所学知识有系统的把握，体会收获知识的成就感。开放式作业可以培养学生的创造力和想象力，在玩中学，体现了寓教于乐的理念。】
