The teaching material is the reading part from NEW SENIOR ENGLISH FOR CHINA STUDENT’S BOOK 8, UNIT 4, Using language. The topic of this unit is Pygmalion. What this part presents us is the scene that Pickering made a bet with Henry. If Henry can pass Eliza off as a lady in three months, Pickering will consider Henry the greatest teacher alive and he also agrees to pay for the lessons. III. The analysis of learning condition

The students are from grade 2 in senior high school. As high school students, they have achieved certain English level and they have the ability to use reading strategies to do the reading task . Since they are in grade2, they are easily activated and want to air their own opinions on the topic. They are unfamiliar with the topic of Pygmalion. But they may like to play a role in the play. Moreover, their vocabulary is limited so there is a word competition in the class IV. Learning objectives

skills and practise acting. Many activities are designed to help students to train their reading skills, such as skimming, scanning and careful reading. It is also important for the students to master the words and phrases they learned yesterday.

2.

Language difficulties

As the students have seldom seen dialects appeared in the reading passage so they may have some difficulties in understanding the passage. So the teacher will help them transform them into formal ones.

VI. Teaching method

Three-stage model: Based on the understanding of reading as an interactive process, teaching reading in the classroom is divided into three stages in which the top-down and bottom-up techniques integrated to develop the students language efficiency in general and reading strategies.

VII. Teaching aids

Multimedia devices and PPT documents: In order to help students to fully understand the whole passage, I adopt Multimedia devices and PPT documents to bring the real-life situation into the classroom.

Let’s have a look. What did you see in the video and how do you feel after seeing the video? (Students’ answer may vary.) I am also deeply impressed by what the man has achieved in spite of his disability. Dear students, you never know what you can achieve unless you try your best. So come on, I’m backing you up. T: Yesterday, we talked about a girl who was healthy but led a miserable life. Who is she? (Students answer: Eliza. She is the girl who makes a living by selling flowers )
