Module 8 Sports life- Unit 3 Language in use 【教学目标】 Language ability: Consolidate passive voices (past/present perfect) and sports-related vocabulary, apply them in practical scenarios like sports news reports. Cultural awareness: Explore international sports terminologies and cultural connotations behind sports events through authentic materials. Thinking quality: Compare active/passive structures to enhance logical thinking, analyze language functions in different sports contexts. Learning ability: Summarize grammar rules through inductive learning, develop self-editing skills for passive voice usage. 【教学重难点】 Grammar: Master the transformation between active/passive voices in different tenses, avoid misuse of "be + past participle" structures. Vocabulary expansion: Distinguish synonyms like compete/participate and win/defeat, learn collocations such as "set a record" and "break a habit". Practical application: Apply passive voices correctly in writing (e.g., sports event reports), ensure grammatical accuracy and context appropriateness. 【教学过程】 Review S1: Li Ning won three gold medals at the 1982 World Championship and three gold, two silver, and one bronze medals at the 1984 Olympics. T: Excellent! You’ve got a sharp memory. His achievements are truly remarkable. And does anyone remember something about Daming? S2: Daming wasn’t chosen for the team last time, but he was very determined to prove himself. T: Exactly! His determination is inspiring. Now, besides these interesting stories, what important grammar point did we focus on? S3: The simple past tense of the passive voice. T: Precisely! Can you tell us the structure of this grammar form? S3: It’s was/were + past participle. T: Well done! Let’s quickly review some examples. I’ll give you a subject, and you create a sentence in the simple past tense of the passive voice. For example, if I say “the book,” you could say “The book was written by a famous author.” Ready? “The window.” S4: The window was broken by a ball. T: Great! How about “the letter”? S5: The letter was sent yesterday. T: Perfect! Now, let’s also review some key vocabulary words we learned. What does “set up” mean? S6: It means to establish or start something. T: Correct! And “logo”? S7: A logo is a symbol or a design that a company or an organization uses as its special sign. T: Excellent! Keep up the good work. Grammar Focus - Further Practice of the Simple Past Tense of the Passive Voice T: Now, let’s dive deeper into the simple past tense of the passive voice. Look at Activity 1 on your textbook. Here we have some sentences with blanks. First, read through the sentences on your own and try to think about what form of the verb should be filled in. Then, discuss with your partner why you choose that form. (Students read and discuss) T: Time’s up. Let’s check the answers together. For the first sentence “The match ______ (hold) last Sunday,” who wants to share your answer? S8: The match was held last Sunday. T: Right! Can you explain why we use “was held” here? S8: Because the action of “hold” happened in the past, and the match can’t hold itself, so we use the passive voice. T: Brilliant explanation! You really understand it well. How about the second sentence “Many people ______ (invite) to the party yesterday”? S9: Many people were invited to the party yesterday. T: Excellent! Let’s continue with the rest of the sentences. (After checking all the answers) T: Now, I want you to create your own sentences using the simple past tense of the passive voice. You can choose any topic you like, such as sports events, famous people, or daily life. Write three sentences on a piece of paper. Then, I’ll ask some of you to share. (Students write sentences) T: Okay, who’d like to share your sentences? S10: My bike was stolen last week. T: Oh no! I hope you can get it back. But grammatically, it’s a perfect sentence. Who else? S11: The song was sung beautifully by her. T: Great! I can almost hear the beautiful singing. One more volunteer? S12: The cake was eaten by my little brother. T: Haha, I guess your little brother really liked the cake. Well done, everyone! Vocabulary Expansion and Practice T: Moving on to vocabulary. In Activity 2, we have some new words and phrases related to sports life. Let’s look at the first word “compete.” What does it mean? S13: It means to take part in a contest or a game to try to win. T: Exactly! And can you use “compete” in a sentence? S13: Many athletes will compete in the Olympic Games. T: Wonderful! Now, let’s look at “athlete.” What kind of person is an athlete? S14: An athlete is a person who is good at sports and takes part in sports competitions. T: Right! For example, Li Ning is a famous athlete. How about “medal”? S15: A medal is a small, flat piece of metal that is given to someone who wins a competition or does something brave. T: Correct! Gold medals, silver medals, and bronze medals are well - known in sports. Now, work with your partner. One of you says a word, and the other uses it in a sentence. Then switch roles. (Students practice in pairs) T: Stop here. I’ll give you a situation, and you use the words we just learned to describe it. Suppose there is a big sports meeting in our school. Use as many new words as possible to talk about it. S16: Many athletes from different classes will compete in the sports meeting. They all want to win medals. T: Good start! Who can add more details? S17: The competition will be very exciting. The athletes will try their best to show their excellent performance. T: Great! You’re using the words very well. Speaking Practice T: Now, let’s have some fun with speaking. Look at Activity 3. Here we have a role - play situation. Imagine you are talking about a sports event you watched recently. You can be a reporter, an athlete, or a fan. First, work in groups of three to create your dialogue. Use the grammar and vocabulary we’ve learned today and in the previous units. (Students work in groups to create dialogues) T: Time’s up. Which group wants to be the first to show your wonderful dialogue? Group 1: A (Reporter): Hello! I’m a reporter from the school newspaper. Can I ask you some questions about the basketball match you just played? B (Athlete): Sure! Go ahead. A: How did you feel when you were chosen to be in the team? B: I felt very proud and excited. I knew I had to work hard to help the team win. A: And what do you think of your team’s performance today? B: I think we did great. We competed very hard, and although we didn’t win the medal this time, we learned a lot. C (Fan): I totally agree! You all played so well. I’m sure you’ll get a medal next time! T: Excellent! You used the language very naturally and smoothly. Let’s give them a big round of applause. Any other groups? (Another group performs) Writing Practice T: After the exciting speaking practice, it’s time for writing. In Activity 4, you are required to write a short report about a local sports event. You can include information like when and where it was held, who participated, what happened during the event, and the results. Remember to use the simple past tense of the passive voice and the new vocabulary words. First, make an outline on a piece of paper. Then start writing your report. (Students write their reports) T: Once you’ve finished writing, exchange your reports with your deskmate. Read each other’s reports and check for grammar mistakes, spelling errors, and whether the content is clear. You can also give some suggestions for improvement. (Students exchange and check) T: Now, who wants to share your report with the whole class? S18: Last Saturday, a table tennis competition was held in our school gym. Many students from different grades competed in it. The matches were very exciting. In the end, Li Ming from Class 3, Grade 9 was chosen as the champion. He was given a gold medal by the principal. T: Great job! Your report is well - written and clear. You’ve used the grammar and vocabulary correctly. Summary T: Class, let’s summarize what we’ve learned today. We’ve further practiced the simple past tense of the passive voice, learned some new vocabulary related to sports life, and improved our speaking and writing skills through various activities. Can anyone tell me one thing you’ve learned or improved on today? S19: I’ve learned how to use more new words to describe sports events. T: Good! What about you? S20: I feel more confident in using the simple past tense of the passive voice in sentences. T: Wonderful! I’m glad to hear that. Homework T: For your homework, I want you to write a short story. The story should be related to sports and must use at least five of the new vocabulary words we learned today and the simple past tense of the passive voice at least three times. Make your story interesting and creative. Bring your stories to class tomorrow, and we’ll share and enjoy them together. T: That’s all for today’s class. See you next time!
