Middle School of Guixi. Today I’m very happy to be here to give you a class. I think all of you are lovely! I am sure we will have a good time and become friends. Well. Class begins! Good morning, class! Sit down, please!

Today, we will learn < Unit 5 Why do you like pandas? Section B 2a-2c> (板书) Step1 Warm-up

Show the students a picture of a zoo and the animals in it. Ask: What’s this? (It’s a map.) What kind of map is it? Is it a map of a zoo? Have you ever been to the zoo? What can you see in the zoo? What kind of animals do you know？OK. Next let’s listen to some sounds of animals. And you should try to guess what kind of animals it is. (such as tiger, elephant…) You are smart! I believe you can make it. After that, point to the screen, saying: Do you like animals? What animals do you like? Why? Ask the students individually. 【教学设计说明】通过播放动物的声音激发学生的兴趣, 把学生引入英语学习的氛围中。

并复习描述动物的形容词。

Step2 Lead-in & Presentation

1. Do you want to know what animals I like? Then give the students some information about the animals. Guide them to guess it (elephants). At the same time, draw the stick figure of the elephant. Say: I like elephants very much because they are very smart. Ask: Why do people think elephants are smart? What can they do? Show some pictures to teach some useful sentences. 2. Elephants are not only smart but also very important in many countries. Let’s look at the big screen. Then show some pictures of buildings in Thailand. Guide students to guess which country it is (Thailand). Introduce some culture about elephants in Thailand——There was a white elephant on the first flag of Thailand. What’s more, the elephant is one of Thailand’s symbols. And March 13th is Thai Elephant Day.（Practice the new words.）

【教学设计说明】图片教学法是呈现新知识最简单有效的方法之一，学生通过图片，学习本课重要词汇及句型，为最后语言的输出扫清学习障碍。

Step3 Reading 1. Fast reading

T: Now we know something about elephants, next we will learn an article to know more about the elephants. Open your books and turn to Page 29. Look at Activity 2b, read the article quickly and find the answer to this question:

What is the best title for the article? (Let’s Save the Elephants.) 2. Careful reading

Let’s read the article one paragraph after another carefully and find out the topic sentence which can tell us the main idea of each paragraph. After that, tell them the reading strategy. Para 1--Elephants are very important in Thailand. Para 2--Elephants are smart animals.

Para 3--Elephants are in great danger. 【教学设计说明】阅读文章应先略读再细读。因此第一个问题的设置要求学生略读找到关键词语推测文章的标题。接下来的归纳段落大意能够帮助学生对文章有整体理解。

Step 4 2c

1. Tell students to look at the mind map in 2c. There are four boxes around the word "Elephant".

The first box is about the importance of the elephants in Thailand. The second box is about the abilities of the elephants. The third box is about the facts and figures of the elephants. The last box is about how to save the elephants. Let's read the article again and fill in the blanks.

2. Check the answers with the class. 【教学设计说明】2c的设计能够帮助学生更好的理解文章，读懂细节。

Step 5 Retelling the article 1. You are smart, but do you have a good memory? Next, I will ask you to retell the article according to the mind map in 2c. Then give them an example. Do you know how to do it?

( Students answer together)

2. Read the article the whole class. 【教学设计说明】通过分层任务为学生提供更多选择和求助的机会，大大提高学生参与学习的自主性和积极性。同时达到对本节课的目标语言练习与巩固。

Step7 Summary In this class, we have learnt some new words and new phrases, please remember them. We also learned an article about how to protect the animals. 【教学设计说明】总结本节课的目标语言。

Step 6 2a Thinking As we all know, elephants are in great danger. One reason is that people cut down too many trees so they are losing their homes. However, many other animals in the world are in danger, too. Look at the screen. Show them some pictures. Say: How do you feel about the pictures? Are you happy? Why or Why not? Then tell them the reasons. (I think the danger is from human beings. People cut down too many trees, so animals are losing their homes. And some of animals don’t have enough food, some people even kill them for money.) Do you think so? So we should try our best to protect them. Can you tell me what we should do? (Students answer together) Good! Then have them watch a short video about how to protect the animals. Say: Animals are our friends.

No buying, no killing.

To Love animals is to love ourselves(我们自己). 【教学设计说明】通过联系及通过观看视频拓展学生视野，开阔学生眼界，同时更多了解动物，提高保护动物，爱护大自然，人与动物和谐相处的意识。

Step 8 Homework Make a survey and write a short article about how to save the animals. Let’s end up our class with a song named Heal the world. And it was sung by Michael Jackson. Bye. Thank you! 【教学设计说明】本部分旨在帮助学生加深对知识的理解、巩固和应用。学会用正确的语言进行写作，并帮助学生积累语言。
