After a brief greeting, we will talk about our new school. With the aid of a short video concerned with our school, students may say: our school is very beautiful. There are many beautiful flowers and green trees. We feel very happy. Then I will make a conclusion with the next three sentences: 1.We have been learning in our newly built school since last September. 2. Our school filled with various flowers and green trees is very beautiful. 3. Our beautiful school can make us absorbed in our study. 4. We feel delighted at our beautiful school. 说明：从学生的生活实际-在新校区的生活来入手，让学生讨论新学校。老师对学生的介绍用含目标结构的句子进行总结。

Step 2: Language learning First, read the three sentences together. Let students observe these sentences especially the words in yellow. What do they have in common? What are they used as? Then I explain the sentences one by one.

1.We have been learning in our newly built school since last September. = Since last September, we have been learning in a school which was built recently/ a school built recently. a school to be built next year a school being built now Here we learned that the Past Participles used as Attribute can be changed into an Attributive clause. the Past Participles used as Attribute can be put in front of or after the Noun. 说明：此处，通过导入的这个句子让学生去变换，复习了过去分词作定语可以等同于一个定语从句。过去分词作定语，可以放在名词前面或者后面。

2.

Our beautiful school can make us absorbed in our study. =with such a beautiful school, it is easy to absorb ourselves in our study. Every day, I try my best to speak clearly and slowly to make you understand me.

= Every day, I try to make myself understood by speaking clearly and slowly. In my class, once asked to answer a question, what should you do? You should make yourselves heard/understood by raising your voice. 说明：同样运用句子的变换让学生去体会过去分词作宾补。所举例子都是来源于生活。

3.

We feel delighted at our beautiful school. Today, I feel amazed at your amazing performance.

= Your performance is amazing.

= Your performance amazes me. Conclusion: sb. feels amazed/ interested/surprised/confused/fascinated

Sth. Is amazing/interesting/surprising/confusing/fascinating 说明：过去分词作表语，让学生体会过去分词作表语，修饰主语人的心情。现在分词作表语，描述事情或者事物的状态及性质。最后给他们做了一个总结来强化这一点。

Step 3: Practicing and applying

Don’t you think we are very lucky to study in such a beautiful school and live a peaceful life? But Aylan was not so lucky. Let’s see what was happening to him.

Are you familiar with this picture? Yes, it was this picture that made the world shocked. A 3-year old boy named Aylan was found lying on the beach. In search of a better life, the drowned boy, along with his family hoped to reach a peaceful land without a war. Sadly, he failed in this life. In another world, he made it. Now we continue to describe his life in another world. Here are some pictures for you.

说明：通过问学生是否觉得自己很幸运，能够在这样的环境里学习和生活，来导入到叙利亚三岁溺水儿童Aylan来。此时对于这个孩子的事情做一个简单的介绍。然后让他们描述Aylan 去了另外一个世界的生活。那是一个没有战争，充满了爱的世界。

To describe the world where he was.

To describe his safety in another world.

To describe his living conditions in another world. 说明：此时，通过六张照片，三张PPT及一些带有过去分词作定语，宾语补足语及表语的短语，让学生对Aylan在另一个世界的生活进行描述。三张PPT分别代表了他生活的世界，他的安全及他的居住环境。

Step 4: Presentation (a letter to Heaven) In fact, Aylan’s suffering has drawn the world’s attention. Noe you are required to write a letter to Aylan.

You can begin like this:

Dear Aylan:

I still remember your smiling face though you were faced with difficulties. but you chose to leave this place filled with wars….

(Try to use these structures.) p.p. +n / n +p.p. (in/ at/ by…)

get/ make/have sb./ sth. done with sb. /sth. done feel+ p.p. 说明：通过前面大量的输入，让学生给在天堂的Aylan写一封信。通过这封信，使在情感上得到升华。由此产生共鸣：

我们应该珍惜这来之不易的和平生活。

我们应该努力学习使我们的祖国更加地强大。

Step 5: Homework Ask students to write a news report to China Daily about Aylan’s

suffering. Pay attention to the news structure and Past Participles. 说明：通过作业的形式，让学生对Aylan的遭遇给中国日报写一篇新闻报道。

要求注意新闻的格式，同时也是对过去分词作定语，宾语补足语和表语的运用。
