Unit 2 Plant a Plant! Lesson 10: Make Your Garden Grow! I. Teaching Objectives By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: Extract key gardening factors (sunlight, soil, water, space, animals, etc.) from the text to complete tasks (ticking factors, True/False), aligning with High school entrance examination reading comprehension skills. Master target vocabulary (cover, consider, purpose, test, climate) and use them accurately in gardening contexts, preparing for High school entrance examination vocabulary tasks. Understand the multi - faceted value of gardening (practical steps, environmental considerations, personal enjoyment), supporting High school entrance examination - style thematic analysis of daily hobbies. Collaborate in pairs/groups to design a garden - planting plan, enhancing High school entrance examination writing and oral communication skills. II. Key Points & Difficulties Key Points Gardening Success Factors: Environmental: sunlight, soil, water, climate; Practical: space, fence (against animals); Emotional: fun, purpose. Vocabulary & Phrases: Verbs: cover, consider, test; Nouns: purpose, climate; Adjectives: dry. Difficulties Prioritizing and explaining gardening factors (e.g., why sunlight matters more for some plants). Using target vocabulary to describe cause - effect in gardening (e.g., “If soil is dry, plants need water.”). Structuring a coherent garden - planting plan with logical steps and vocabulary. III. Teaching Methods Task - Based Learning (TBL): Through text analysis (factor - ticking, True/False), vocabulary practice, and project - based writing. Cause - Effect Analysis: Unpacking how each factor influences plant growth (e.g., sunlight → photosynthesis). Collaborative Learning: Group work for planting - plan design, emphasizing peer feedback on logic and vocabulary. IV. Teaching Aids CAI (gardening - factor slides, vocabulary - usage animations, planting - plan templates). Textbook, worksheets, and “Gardening Factor Cards” (with images of sunlight, soil, etc. for discussion). V. Teaching Procedures Step 1: Warm - up – Gardening Preferences (5 mins) Discuss the THINK ABOUT IT questions: （1）Do you like gardening? Why/why not? (E.g., “Yes—grow my own flowers; No—too much work.”) （2）What’s fun about gardening? (E.g., “Watching plants grow, eating fresh food.”) Share: Invite 3–4 students to share. Write down keywords: gardening, fun, factors, plants. Step 2: Pre - reading – Vocabulary & Prediction (8 mins) Vocabulary Introduction: Teach words with gardening examples: Cover: “Cover seeds with soil (v.). A cover protects plants (n.).” Consider: “Consider sunlight before planting (v.).” Purpose: “The purpose of gardening is fun (n.).” Test: “Test soil quality (v.). A test kit helps (n.).” Climate: “Local climate affects plants (n.).” Grammar Note: Consider + noun/doing (e.g., consider sunlight, consider planting roses). Prediction: Ask: What factors will the text mention for a good garden? Sun? Water? Soil? Step 3: Reading – Gardening Factor Extraction (12 mins) Complete Let’s Do It! 1 (Factor Ticking): Mentioned Factors (Ticked): ☑ heat (implied in sunlight), ☑ light (sunlight), ☑ space, ☑ temperature (climate), ☑ climate, ☑ water, ☑ soil, ☑ sunlight. (Note: fence is mentioned as a solution, so counted; air is not explicitly discussed.) True/False Judgment (Let’s Do It! 2): Answers: T (Many things to consider: sunlight, soil, etc.). F (Most plants need a lot of sunlight). T (No enough rain → garden gets dry). T (Fence keeps small animals away). F (Fun is the purpose, not just exercise). Text Structure Analysis: Sections: Sunlight → Soil → Water → Animals → Fun (logical order of gardening steps). Step 4: Vocabulary & Grammar Practice (10 mins) Complete Let’s Do It! 3 (Vocabulary Choice): Answers: ☑ over (cover with soil) ☑ think (consider = think carefully) ☑ reason (purpose = reason) ☑ check (test = check) Role Analysis: Highlight cover (verb), consider (verb), purpose (noun), test (verb) in context. Sentence Expansion with Cause - Effect: Practice: “If you don’t water (v.) your garden, the soil (n.) will get dry. So consider (v.) watering daily!” Step 5: Writing – Garden Planting Plan (15 mins) Task Introduction: Template for Planting Plan: I want to plant ______ (roses/vegetables) in my garden. First, I need to consider ______ (sunlight/soil) because ______. I will ______ (test the soil/cover seeds) to ______. To protect plants, I will ______ (build a fence/water daily). Gardening is fun because ______ (I enjoy growth/eating fresh food). Example: “I want to plant tomatoes. First, consider sunlight—they need lots. I’ll test soil and add compost. Build a fence against rabbits. Fun because I eat fresh tomatoes!” Group Work: Students discuss and draft plans, using “Gardening Factor Cards” for ideas. The teacher checks logic and vocabulary. Class Sharing: Groups present plans. Feedback focuses on: Accuracy of factor explanations (e.g., why sunlight matters). Clear use of target vocabulary (e.g., consider, cover, test). Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 mins) Summary: Recap gardening factors, target vocabulary, and the dual purpose of gardening (practical + fun). Homework: （1）Write a 8 - sentence planting plan (use 3 target words, include 1 environmental factor). （2）Observe a potted plant at home: Write 3 sentences about how it grows (use sunlight, water, soil).
