Good afternoon, everyone. It’s my great pleasure to be here sharing my lesson with you. The content is Senior High English Module 1 Unit 2 Modern heroes. I’ll be ready to begin this lesson from six parts, that is, analysis of the teaching material, analysis of the Students, teaching aims, teaching important and difficult points, teaching methods and teaching procedures. First of all, let me talk about the teaching material.
Part 1 Analysis of the teaching material:
Unit 2 is about different heroes, in which most students are interested. By studying this unit, we’ll enable the students to know how to be a hero and develop their interest in heroes. Lesson 1 plays an important part in the English teaching in this unit. If the students can learn it well, it will be helpful to make the students learn the rest of this unit. This lesson is about a national hero——Yang Liwei who is famous for the first astronaut of China, which, I think, the students are familiar with. There are many new words and expressions related to space flight appearing in the reading material, too.
Part 2 Analysis of the Students:
Aged 15-16 years, the students in Senior1 think actively, respond swiftly and have the courage to express their thoughts and ideas. Just entering high school and lacking in the ability of active learning, however, they haven’t formed a good habit of learning English. When it comes toreading, they haven’t master how to use extensive and intensive reading skills and the abilities of summary and induction as well. In a word, students haven’t mastered the reading strategies. On the other hand, after a certain time of training, they’ve mastered some reading skills, such as group work, using the culture and background knowledge etc.
Part 3 Teaching aims:
According to the new standard curriculum and the syllabus (新课程标准和教学大纲), after studying the teaching material and analyzing the rule of children’s growing of mind, I think the teaching aims are the followings:
Knowledge goals:
●To learn some words and expressions related to space flight appearing in the reading material.
Ability goals:
●To improve students’ basic ability of listening, speaking and reading.
●To practise extensive reading in order to understand the main idea of each paragraph and guess the meaning of new words from the context.
Emotional goals:
●To motivate students’ interest in space exploration of China.
●To help student to learn to cooperate with each other.
Now, let’s come to the Important and the Difficult points.
Part 4 Teaching Important and Difficult points:
The important and difficult points of this period lie in: To achieve the teaching aims better and make the student respond actively to complete the tasks. But how to? According to the analysis of the teaching material and the students’ learning background, I will use the following methods.
Part 5 Teaching Methods:
In my opinion, the main instructional aims of learning English in the High School is to develop the students’ abilities of listening, speaking, reading, writing and their good sense of the English language. So in this lesson I’ll mainly use the “communicative approach” to mobilize the enthusiasm of the students to actively participate in class activities and fulfill the tasks of teaching through teacher-student interaction and group discussion.
At the same time, I’ll also use “task-based approach” in my teaching, which offers the students an opportunity to complete the tasks in which students use language to achieve a specific outcome. I’ll make use of the modern electricity teaching equipment and all kinds of teaching means, which can develop the Ss creativity in learning English.
Part 6 Teaching procedures
Step 1 Lead-in.
Show the students a piece of video: the launch of Shenzhou V
Then ask the students the following questions:
Do you know who was in the spaceship?(Show the picture of Yang Liwei)
What do you know about him? (Show the profile of Yang Liwei )
How do you feel about him?
How did you feel about China’s first manned space flight?
Purpose of my design: This activity can stimulate the interest of students, which naturally leads to the topic of this period.
Step 2 Fast readingAsk the students to skim the passage to complete the task. ( Show the students the exercise on the screen)
Task 1: Divide the class into two groups: boys and girls. Ask them to read the article quickly and the boys circle all the words related to a spaceship’s movement while the girls circle all the words related to Yang Liwei’s movement in the spaceship.
Then ask the boys to judge whether the girls’ answers are right or wrong and the girls do the same.
Purpose of my design: Enable students to understand the given material better using a useful reading skills. Dividing the class into two groups--boys and girls, will create a competition between the boys and girls, which, of cause , makes the studens more actively participate in the class activities.
Step 3 Detailed reading
Task 2: The students have got some basic understanding of the passage after Task 1.This time show the boy students five questions to answer, requiring them to conduct a second reading and get a further understanding of the passage . At the same time ask the girl students to find out the headings of the paragraphs and match them together.
Boys:
1. How did Yang Liwei feel during the flight? How did he feel afterwards?
2. What did Yang Liwei do during the Shenzhou V’s seventh circle of the earth?
3. How many circles did the spaceship complete while Yang Liwei was sleeping?
4. What were helicopters doing as Yang Liwei returned to the earth’s atmosphere?
5. What did Yang Liwei do when he came out of the spaceship?
Girls:
Para.1 Introduction
Para.2 An exciting lift-off
Para.3 During the flight
Para.4 International good wishes
Para.5 Astronaut lands safely
Para.6 Welcome home
Then ask the boys to judge whether the girls’ answers are right or wrong and the girls do the same.
Purpose of my design: The task makes students more familiar with the passage, train their reading speed and reading strategies and develop the students’ capacity of induction.
Step 4 Post reading
(Show some sentences with pictures to students, then ask them to guess the meaning of some words or phrases. )
Task 3: Ask the students to guess the meanings of some words and phrases together with some pictures. Then ask the students to complete the following exercise shown on the screen, using some words and expressions in this passage.
China’s first spaceship at 9 a.m.,October 15,2003. The first Chinese ,Yang Liwei said, “When the spaceship was , I could really feel the high . When the spaceship from the rocket, I suddenly got a feeling of the sky.” During the 21-hour space , the spaceship the earth 14 times. When the space was the earth for the seventh time, Yang Liwei showed the
of China and the UN, the wishes of Chinese to space peacefully. Yang landed . The spaceship was red when it came into the earth’s . The ship was shaking when it let out its . At the same time were ready to save Yang. Yang climbed out of the spaceship, smiled and to the crowds waiting for him.
Purpose of my design: Present some key words and phrases appearing in the passage, and fill in the blanks to increase the students’ ability of language use. Then ask the students to report the answers one by one. This task can test the students’ learning effects.
Step 5 Free discussion
Task 4: Ask the students to Work in pairs. Imagine one is Yang Liwei and the other is a reporter from CCTV. Make up an interview between them.
Example:
Reporter: When did the spaceship lift off?
Yang: It lifted off at 9 a.m. on October 15th, 2003.
R: What did you eat in space?
Y:…...
Purpose of my design: Most students can take their parts in the activities, especially for the Ss who have trouble in English study. In the group activities, they can speak a little English. Without doubt, this will encourage them to speak English. In fact, it is a kind of demand of human being. “Task-based” method is used here to develop the students’ ability of communication and also their ability of co-operation will be well trained.。
Step 6: Homework.
1.What do you think of Yang Liwei? Please write 5 or 6 sentences.
2. Read the article space heroes on page 32
Purpose of my design: I think homework is so important that the students should practise English as much as they can in class or after class. It is necessary for the students to do some exercises after class to master the knowledge they learned, which is an extension of the previous lesson.

Lesson Plan Interpretation
NSEFC Book1 Unit3 Travel Journal
Hello, everyone. It’s an honor for me to stand here and interpret my lesson. The lesson plan I am going to talk about is from NSEFC Book 1 Unit 3 Travel Journal. I’ll explain how to teach and why do so from the following 5 aspects: the theoretical basis, understanding of the teaching material, teaching methods and studying ways, teaching procedure, blackboard design.
Ⅰ. The theoretical basis
First, I’d like to show my theoretical basis--schema theory and top-down model (Goodman, 1971). Journey down the Mekong is a reading course. According to schema theory, reading comprehension is an interactive process between the reader’s background knowledge and the text (Carrel and Eisterhold, 1983), or between the new information and the old knowledge store (Anderson and Pearson, 1984). So in order to improve the students’ reading speed and reading comprehension, language teachers should try to activate the Ss’ old knowledge store and add more relevant background knowledge before they get the students to read. According to the top-down model, general idea of the text will be got first, and then come the details.
II. Understanding of the teaching material
My understanding of the teaching material includes 3 parts: the status and the function, teaching objectives, the important and difficult points.
At the beginning, let’s focus on the first part. Journey down the Mekong is a piece of travel journal written by Wang Kun. It’s mainly about Wang Kun and his sister’s dream of taking a great bike trip down the Mekong River, their preparation for the trip and some more details of the Mekong River. General speaking, it is not difficult for the students to understand the text, but there are some new phrases and sentences that may be a little bit difficult. So before the students’ first reading, I will explain the new words and phrases briefly and after reading the whole passage, I will embody the usage of the news words and phrases, and get the student understand the difficult sentences. As it is a piece of journal, besides learning the new words and phrases, students can get the general idea of how to write a journal.
That’s all for the first part, now let’s move to the second part. According to the teaching material and the new curriculum of English, in order to fulfill the learning task of this lesson, I establish the following objectives:
a) Knowledge objectives
By the end of the lesson, Ss will have a better understanding of the meaning and structure of the text. Then Ss will grasp some useful words and expressions such as determined, make up one’s mind, give in, be fond of …, care about…, stubborn, etc.
b) Ability objectives
Actually students should be encouraged to do speed reading in the first period of reading lesson. But the students in my class are lack of independent reading ability. In this class, I will encourage and help them to read, think and find out information by themselves most time. Since the main objective of reading course is to improve the Ss’ reading ability, I’ll train their ability of identifying the general idea in the fast reading. And in intensive reading their ability of information-gathering and summarizing is developed. And the whole class is for Ss to develop their reading skills as scanning, skimming, information-gathering, summarizing and guessing the new words from the text.
c) Moral objectives
Though Journey down the Mekong is mainly about the trip down the river, it also talks about the scenery and life along the river. So before learning the text, we will have a short discussion about the importance of the river. I want the Ss to have the awareness of protecting the river and protecting our environment.
Well, so much for the teaching objectives, let's come to deal with the third part: the important points and the difficult points. According to the national curriculum of English and language learning theory, when teaching reading, we should encourage the Ss to do speed reading for the first time, that’s to say, we should encourage our Ss to read as fast as they can when they do the first reading. So much emphasis should be put on reading skills and reading comprehension as well. So the important points are that how to make Ss grasp the new words and phrases and how to improve their reading skills as scanning, skimming, information-gathering and summarizing. As to the difficult points, they are the same as the important ones.
III. Teaching methods and studying ways
That’s all for my understanding of the teaching material. Now let’s focus on the ways of teaching and learning.
Generally speaking, I adopt task-based language teaching and communicative approach in my class. As for learning, Ss will learn through independent reading, discussing and cooperating.
I will use computer and blackboard as my teaching aids.
Ⅳ. Teaching procedureHere comes the most important part, the teaching procedure. It includes 5 steps: Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading, Step II: While-reading, Step III: Consolidation, Step IV: Post-reading, Step V: Homework.
Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading (7mins)
Now let’s come to the first step. There are three activities in this step and I will spend 7mins on them.
In activity one, I will ask Ss two questions "Do you know some great rivers in China?" and "Why they are great?” Here, as the Ss get familiar with the Chinese great rivers, I choose to ask them some great rivers in China. And the answer to the second question can lead in the next activity--brainstorming.
In activity two, I will ask the Ss to discuss in pairs and answer the question "How do people who live along a river use it?” My purpose of this activity is to remind the Ss the importance of the river, thus stimulate the Ss' awareness of protecting the rivers.
In the last activity, I will show the Ss a picture of the Mekong River and ask them to list the countries that it flows through. This activity leads in the while-reading.
Step II: While-reading (21mins)
While-reading is the main part and it will take 21mins. Here I adopt the top-down reading model. This step is divided into 2 parts: fast reading and careful reading. Before reading, I will ask the Ss to predict what will talk in the text according to the title. It can exert the Ss' imagination.
1) Fast reading
During fast reading, I will ask the Ss to reading the whole passage quickly and get the main idea of each paragraph. Usually, the main idea of each paragraph is the first sentence or the last sentence, but this text is not. So the main idea of each paragraph will be matched because the Ss are lack of the skill of summarizing the main idea by themselves.
2) Careful reading
After getting the general idea of each Para., I will deal with the details Para. by Para..
In paragraph one, I will ask the Ss to read quickly and do the exercises T or F. And if it is F, I will ask them to correct it. This exercise can help the Ss get the key information of the first paragraph in a short time and can deepen the Ss’ understanding of the first paragraph.
In paragraph two, I will ask Ss one question “Is it a difficult journey to cycle along the Mekong? Why?” This can help the Ss develop their ability of summarizing. If the Ss can’t answer the question briefly, I will encourage them to find the key sentences and try to join them together.
And in the last paragraph, I will ask Ss two questions “How does the water of Mekong River change?” and “What can you see when you travel along the Mekong River?” Both questions are required to answer in keys word. In order to lower the difficulty of the questions, I will show them the examples. After that, I will present some pictures to deepen the Ss’ impression on the new words. And these two questions can help the Ss gain a deeper understanding on the Mekong River.
Step III: Consolidation (6mins)
After dealing with the detailed information of each paragraph, I will ask the Ss to read the whole passage again and answer two questions to consolidate what they’ve learnt. It will take 6 minutes. The two questions are “Where is the source of the Mekong River and which sea does it enter?” and “How do Wang Kun and Wang Wei prepare for the trip?” It is easy for the Ss to find the answer to the first question in the text. As to the second question, it may be a little difficult, so I will list some tips for the Ss to find the answer more easily.
Step IV: Post-reading (10mins)
That’s all for the while-reading. Now let’s move to the fourth step. In this step, I will design two activities and I will spend 10 minutes on them.
The first activity is filling in the blanks. In this activity, Ss are required to find the different attitudes of Wang Kun and Wang Wei to the trip, and then the teacher will express her attitude to this trip. After demonstrating, Ss are encouraged to express their attitudes. It can help the Ss train their ability of information-gathering and expression.
The second activity is thinking. In this activity, I will ask the Ss to discuss in groups of four and try to use some words to describe the characteristics of Wang Kun and Wang Wei according to their attitudes. It is really difficult, but it can not only train their ability of analysis and comprehension, but also cultivate their spirit of cooperation
Step V: Homework (1min)
Finally it comes to the homework. Ss are required to review the learnt lesson and underline the useful words and phrases in the text. This one is for them to consolidate what they’ve learnt and make preparation for the next lesson—Learning about the Language..
Ⅴ. Blackboard design
On the top, there is the title of this lesson. On the left, it lists some important roles that the river plays. On the right, there are some useful words and expressions.
That’s all for my interpretation. Thank you for your att

Lesson Plan Interpretation
NSEFC Book1 Unit3 Travel Journal
Hello, everyone. It’s an honor for me to stand here and interpret my lesson. The lesson plan I am going to talk about is from NSEFC Book 1 Unit 3 Travel Journal.

So before learning the text, we will have a short discussion about the importance of the river. I want the Ss to have the awareness of protecting the river and protecting our environment.
Well, so much for the teaching objectives, let's come to deal with the third part: the important points and the difficult points. According to the national curriculum of English and language learning theory, when teaching reading, we should encourage the Ss to do speed reading for the first time, that’s to say, we should encourage our Ss to read as fast as they can when they do the first reading. So much emphasis should be put on reading skills and reading comprehension as well. So the important points are that how to make Ss grasp the new words and phrases and how to improve their reading skills as scanning, skimming, information-gathering and summarizing. As to the difficult points, they are the same as the important ones.
III. Teaching methods and studying ways
That’s all for my understanding of the teaching material. Now let’s focus on the ways of teaching and learning.
Generally speaking, I adopt task-based language teaching and communicative approach in my class. As for learning, Ss will learn through independent reading, discussing and cooperating.
I will use computer and blackboard as my teaching aids.
Ⅳ. Teaching procedure
Here comes the most important part, the teaching procedure. It includes 5 steps: Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading, Step II: While-reading, Step III: Consolidation, Step IV: Post-reading, Step V: Homework.
Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading (7mins)
Now let’s come to the first step. There are three activities in this step and I will spend 7mins on them.
In activity one, I will ask Ss two questions "Do you know some great rivers in China?" and "Why they are great?” Here, as the Ss get familiar with the Chinese great rivers, I choose to ask them some great rivers in China. And the answer to the second question can lead in the next activity--brainstorming.
In activity two, I will ask the Ss to discuss in pairs and answer the question "How do people who live along a river use it?” My purpose of this activity is to remind the Ss the importance of the river, thus stimulate the Ss' awareness of protecting the rivers.
In the last activity, I will show the Ss a picture of the Mekong River and ask them to list the countries that it flows through. This activity leads in the while-reading.
Step II: While-reading (21mins)
While-reading is the main part and it will take 21mins. Here I adopt the top-down reading model. This step is divided into 2 parts: fast reading and careful reading. Before reading, I will ask the Ss to predict what will talk in the text according to the title. It can exert the Ss' imagination.
1) Fast reading
During fast reading, I will ask the Ss to reading the whole passage quickly and get the main idea of each paragraph. Usually, the main idea of each paragraph is the first sentence or the last sentence, but this text is not. So the main idea of each paragraph will be matched because the Ss are lack of the skill of summarizing the main idea by themselves.
2) Careful reading
After getting the general idea of each Para., I will deal with the details Para. by Para..
In paragraph one, I will ask the Ss to read quickly and do the exercises T or F. And if it is F, I will ask them to correct it. This exercise can help the Ss get the key information of the first paragraph in a short time and can deepen the Ss’ understanding of the first paragraph.
In paragraph two, I will ask Ss one question “Is it a difficult journey to cycle along the Mekong? Why?” This can help the Ss develop their ability of summarizing. If the Ss can’t answer the question briefly, I will encourage them to find the key sentences and try to join them together.
And in the last paragraph, I will ask Ss two questions “How does the water of Mekong River change?” and “What can you see when you travel along the Mekong River?” Both questions are required to answer in keys word. In order to lower the difficulty of the questions, I will show them the examples. After that, I will present some pictures to deepen the Ss’ impression on the new words. And these two questions can help the Ss gain a deeper understanding on the Mekong River.
Step III: Consolidation (6mins)
After dealing with the detailed information of each paragraph, I will ask the Ss to read the whole passage again and answer two questions to consolidate what they’ve learnt. It will take 6 minutes. The two questions are “Where is the source of the Mekong River and which sea does it enter?” and “How do Wang Kun and Wang Wei prepare for the trip?” It is easy for the Ss to find the answer to the first question in the text. As to the second question, it may be a little difficult, so I will list some tips for the Ss to find the answer more easily.
Step IV: Post-reading (10mins)
That’s all for the while-reading. Now let’s move to the fourth step. In this step, I will design two activities and I will spend 10 minutes on them.
The first activity is filling in the blanks. In this activity, Ss are required to find the different attitudes of Wang Kun and Wang Wei to the trip, and then the teacher will express her attitude to this trip. After demonstrating, Ss are encouraged to express their attitudes. It can help the Ss train their ability of information-gathering and expression.
The second activity is thinking. In this activity, I will ask the Ss to discuss in groups of four and try to use some words to describe the characteristics of Wang Kun and Wang Wei according to their attitudes. It is really difficult, but it can not only train their ability of analysis and comprehension, but also cultivate their spirit of cooperation
Step V: Homework (1min)
Finally it comes to the homework. Ss are required to review the learnt lesson and underline the useful words and phrases in the text. This one is for them to consolidate what they’ve learnt and make preparation for the next lesson—Learning about the Language..
Ⅴ. Blackboard design
On the top, there is the title of this lesson. On the left, it lists some important roles that the river plays. On the right, there are some useful words and expressions.
That’s all for my interpretation. Thank you for your att
