Skimming helps students quickly grasp the main idea of the text. It not only boosts their reading efficiency but also lays a solid foundation for a deeper understanding of the text later on. While scanning enables them to understand the text structure and genre, improving their reading skills and comprehension ability. By analyzing the text structure and genre, students can better anticipate the flow of ideas and the author's writing purpose, facilitating a more profound and comprehensive understanding of the text content. Answering detailed questions can deepen students' understanding of the text content, including the author's purpose, historical background, and the meaning and function of specific words and sentences. This helps to cultivate students' analytical and thinking abilities. To find out the author’s purpose aims to make students think about the underlying motivation of the author. By evaluating the different options, students need to consider the content, tone, and overall message of the text to infer the author's intention. This cultivates their ability to analyze the text from a higher perspective and understand the author's perspective and message, which is an important aspect of critical reading. The fill-in-the-blanks task is aimed at reinforcing students' memory and understanding of key information in the text. By filling in the blanks, students need to recall and summarize the relevant content, which helps them consolidate their learning and improve their ability to extract and use information accurately. This helps students develop a holistic understanding of the text and its central themes, and encourages them to think about the broader meaning and value of football as described in the article. Activity 4.Post-reading Discussion: 1.What is your understanding of the last passage? 2.What other sports are as popular as football in China? What makes them so popular? Tips：1.That football is much, much more important than life and death might sound funny. But when thinking about the Earth, which is shaped like a football, you can understand the importance of football in people's minds. 2.Table tennis is very popular in China for the following reasons. Firstly, table tennis only needs a big table. Compared to basketball, baseball and football, it takes up much smaller space. Secondly, it is a safer sport compared to others which may involve physical contact between players. It's convenient for schools to organize such exercise for PE classes. Thirdly, it's a very simple game to play and both boys and girls can handle it quite well. The discussion activity allows students to further explore the significance of football and compare it with other popular sports in China. It promotes students' in-depth thinking and communication skills, and also helps them understand different sports cultures and values. Activity 5.Summary and Homework 1.Summary: In this lesson, we started with a video of a football match to lead into the topic of football. Through pre-reading activities such as looking at pictures and making predictions, students were prepared for reading. During the while-reading process, we used extensive and intensive reading methods to help students understand the text "A Game for the World" in depth, including its main idea, structure, and the reasons for the popularity of football. In the post-reading discussion, students shared their views on football and compared it with other popular sports in China. Finally, we summarized the key points of the lesson and assigned homework to consolidate students' learning. Through this lesson, students not only improved their language skills but also enhanced their cultural awareness and thinking abilities. 2.Homework: (1)Basic homework: Recite the key sentences in the text. (2)Improved homework: Briefly retell the content of the article in your own words.（No more than 150 words） (3)Comprehensive homework: Write a short passage to describe a popular sport in China. The teacher guides students to review the key points of the lesson, including the main content of the text, the reasons for the popularity of football, and the language knowledge and skills learned. This helps students consolidate their learning and form a systematic understanding. The basic homework of reciting key sentences helps students remember important language expressions. The improved homework of retelling the article in their own words trains students' summarization and language expression abilities. The comprehensive homework of writing about a popular sport in China encourages students to apply what they have learned and explore other sports cultures, further enhancing their writing and thinking skills. Blackboard design The blackboard design illustrating the structure of the text is highly beneficial. It allows students to visually grasp how the text is organized, such as the division of paragraphs and the relationship between different parts. This helps them understand the logical flow and progression of ideas in the article. By seeing the structure presented in a diagrammatic form, students can better follow the author's train of thought and analyze how the various elements of the text work together to convey the overall message. This visual representation of the text structure also aids in improving students' reading comprehension skills and their ability to write well-structured texts in the future. Reflection 1. Successes The lead-in with the football video was very effective in attracting students' attention and generating interest in the topic. Students actively participated in sharing their feelings about football, which set a good foundation for the following learning. The combination of different reading strategies in the while-reading part helped students gradually understand the text from the surface to the deep level. They were able to master the reading skills and complete the reading tasks with relatively high accuracy. The post-reading discussion was lively, and students showed great enthusiasm in expressing their views on football and other sports. It not only enhanced their language communication ability but also promoted their critical thinking and cultural awareness. 2. Deficiencies In the pre-reading prediction part, some students had difficulties in making accurate predictions. Maybe more guidance and hints could be provided in the future to help them better develop this ability. During the intensive reading, when answering some complex questions, a few students still had problems in understanding and expressing. More time could be spent on guiding these students and providing more detailed explanations. In the group discussion, the participation of some students was not very active. In the future, it is necessary to encourage these students to participate more actively and ensure that every student can get enough opportunities to express themselves. 3. Improvements In the future teaching, more practice and guidance on prediction skills can be added before reading, such as providing more similar texts for students to practice predicting. For students with difficulties in intensive reading, additional individual tutoring or small group discussions can be arranged to help them overcome difficulties and improve their understanding and expression abilities. In group activities, adopt different grouping methods and incentive mechanisms to encourage every student to actively participate and improve the overall learning effect. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
