Unit 1 Freshman Challenge 1、 Lead-in(free talk and video) Good morning boys and girls, welcome to my class again! Before our lesson, let's have a free talk, ok? So it has been a week since you came to senior high school, right? Right? How did you feel about your school life?（本单元导入的前半部分可以和welcome unit设计一样，以减少记忆量） Who can share your feelings with us? Joey, can you? You a little confused. Why? Because the courses are difficult. Don't worry about it, it's very common. Just keep it up! How about you, Mary? How did you feel? You feel excited. Because everything here is new and interesting. Ok. Thanks your your sharing. Now I have known something about your school life. Now I have a question for you: what do you want to know about the school life in other countries? No clues? Never mind. I will show you a video from Douyin, you can tell me your answer after you watch it. Bob. You want to know the class schedule and activities. Very good! Today, we will learn a passage together and try to know more about it. 二、Pre-reading Please open your book. First, let's look at the title.(板书标题)What did freshman mean? Fresh means new, so freshman means students in first grade. Just like you guys. Based on the title. What do you want to know the passage? I heard some of you said you want to know who the freshman is and what challenges he may face. Ok, now let's learn the passage and try to find out these answers. 三、Fast reading Now, tell me together. How many paragraphs are there in the text? 4. Right. First, I will give you 5 minutes. Please skim the passage quickly. And try to summarize the main idea of each paragraph. Michael, you are the first one who finished the task. What's your answer? （注：若时间不够，则直接将任务设置成：match the main idea of each paragraph on the ppt.） · Paragraph 1: Senior high school is a challenge. · Paragraph 2: Adam had to think very carefully about which courses he wanted to take. · Paragraph 3: Adam had to choose extra-curricular activities. · Paragraph 4: Adam will have to study harder in the future and get used to being responsible for a lot more. Totally correct! How did you find it so quickly?Did you read the passage word by word? When we want to find the main idea of each paragraph, we can focus on the keywords and top sentences. It's a very important reading skill called skim. They can help us find it more quickly. Clear? Great! Here comes another task: How many parts will you divide the passage into? Carrie, can you tell me your idea? 2 parts. Can you use one word to summarize each part? Introductions and challenges. Right. So we can know the key word of the passage is “challenge”. How many challenges did Adam meet? 3. Yes, it's very easy for you guys. 四、Careful reading——fill in the blanks about challenges and solutions. We know that Adam has many challenges in his senior high school. What did he do? Do he just give up? No, of course not. He found solutions. Now, please read the passage again, try to fill in the blanks about Adam's challenges and solutions. Have you finished? Ok, now let's let's see what challenges Adam meet and what solutions he find. Any volunteers? All right, Bob. The first challenge is about choosing courses. What did Adam do? He chose the advance course. How about the next challenge? Yes, he had difficulties in choosing extra activities. And he just decided to improve himself. What else? He was a little worried about study. What did he decide to do in the end? He decided to be responsible for a lot more. Guys, do you agree with him? Yes, you all got the right answer.(边说边板书) 板书: Challenges Solutions Choose courses Advanced course Choose activities Improve himself Study Be responsible for a lot more 五、Post-reading——Pair work Now we've already had a clear understanding of the passage, let's do an activity together. Please work in pairs, one is the interviewer, another is the interviewee. You should make a conversation about challenges you faced in your senior high school and give your suggestions. Please discuss with your partner. 5 minutes for you. Go. Ok, stop here, any group want to share your ideas with us? All right, group 3. You guys did an excellent job! Very good interview. 六、Summary and homework Just like Adam, we will meet many different kinds of challenges in our study or life. What should we do?
