教学过程

Step 1 Lead-in

1. Ss listen to a song named The One You Love. After listening, lead Ss to pay attention to the sentences in green and ask what kind of clauses they are.

2. Before learning what is ac, ask Ss what is attribute. Show the following examples of attribute on the screen. She is a beautiful girl. It is a coffee cup. It is an interesting movie. It is an Mp3 player of good quality. He is a famous writer who comes from a small town. Though the above examples, Ss get to know that attribute can be a word,a phrase or a clause. Then lead Ss to the definition of ac: An attributive clause is used to modify a noun or a pronoun.

3.Invite Ss to enjoy some proverbs with attributive clause

1).He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man.

2). God helps those who help themselves.

3). He who laughs last laughs best.

4). Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.

Invite several Ss to read the antecedent and the attributive clause they have found. Activity 3 1.

Analyze and summarize the usage of the relative words. The usage of that will be taught by T for example.Then four Ss in a group to analyze and summarize the usage of the relative words by themselves. 2.

Invite two or three Ss to read their letters in the front of the classroom. Step 6 Summary Ask Ss to summarize what they have learned in this class. In this class we have learned what is AC and the usage of the relative words: that,which,who who,whom,whose.
