It was snowing outside. A little girl was walking in the street and she was selling matches. The little girl’s bare feet

were covered by the snow, so they were quite red and blue. She wished all her matches sold but nobody bought a single one. At last, she was so tired and cold that she sat in a corner with her legs huddled up. She lit a match and saw a Christmas tree. The tree was decorated very beautifully. The matches were burning brightly and she seemed to see her grandmother. She asked her grandmother to take her away. The next day, people saw the girl and she was frozen to death. What a poor girl!

(The story after getting polished) It was snowing outside. A little girl was walking in the street, selling matches. Covered by the snow, the little girl’s bare feet were quite red and blue. She wished all her matches sold but nobody bought a single one. At last, she was so tired and cold that she sat in a corner with her legs huddled up. She lit a match and saw a Christmas tree decorated very beautifully. The matches were burning brightly and she seemed to see her grandmother. She asked her grandmother to take her away. The next day, people saw the girl frozen to death. What a poor girl ! Purpose: Enable the students to use the past participle and the present participle in a sentence correctly.

3.

Make up a story according to the Chinese and the key words. Use the present participle and past participle if necessary. (Students should finish it in 8-10 minutes and then the teacher will invite 2 students to show their answers.) 有一天，小镇上的所有女孩都受到了王子的邀请(invite)去皇宫(palace)参加舞会(dance party)。只有灰姑娘不能去。幸运的是，一位仙女出现了并用魔法(magic)帮助了她。灰姑娘穿着(wear)漂亮的裙子和玻璃鞋(crystal shoes)，高高兴兴地去参加舞会了。在舞会上，王子被她的美貌吸引(attract)，与她共舞了一个晚上并且还爱上了她。

(Possible version) One day, invited by the prince, all the females in the town went to the palace to join the dance party except Cinderella. Luckily, a fairy appeared and helped her with magic.

Step V: Homework 1 Revise the elements of the past participle in the sentences. 2 Finish writing the composition on the paper sheet.

教学反思：这节语法课的目的是帮助学生掌握过去分词做状语的用法，并让学生能在句子和篇章中灵活使用过去分词。整节课的教学过程比较完整，流畅。摆脱了传统语法教学中教师要扮演语法讲解者的角色，积极地引导、启发，给学生提供了大量的机会和语境感知语言，发现规律，使学生对语法意义，功能和运用有了较深刻的理解，很好第实现了教学目标。但由于课堂时间的限制，

学生的参与面还不够（最后一部分writing如果能有更多的作文展示，效果会更好），在今后的教学中我会继续探究改进的方法。
