Lesson 32: My Favourite Record
I. Teaching Objectives
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
Extract record - related details (class records, Sandra’s book, Li Ming’s sports meet) to answer comprehension questions, aligning with High school entrance examination reading skills.
Master photography and weightlifting - themed vocabulary (e.g., photograph, photographer, keep, several, lift, become) and use them to discuss records, preparing for High school entrance examination vocabulary tasks.
Understand the variety of class and personal records and analyze why unusual records (e.g., pulling a train with teeth) inspire amazement, supporting High school entrance examination - style curiosity and value exploration.
Collaborate in groups to brainstorm and list classroom records, enhancing High school entrance examination teamwork and creative - thinking skills.
II. Key Points & Difficulties
Key Points
Class Records:
Best paper airplane: Brian’s flew farthest.
Largest book: Sandra’s (60 cm×40 cm×21 cm, family photos).
Li Ming’s sports meet: Broke long - jump school record.
Vocabulary & Phrases:
photograph, photographer, keep, several, lift, become — used in record - sharing and ambition contexts.
Difficulties
Describing large measurements (e.g., “60 cm long, 40 cm wide”) clearly in English.
Using photography/weightlifting vocabulary (e.g., “keep memories” with photograph) accurately in new sentences.
Analyzing why “unbelievable records” (train - pulling teeth) amaze people (e.g., defying physical expectations).
III. Teaching Methods
Task - Based Learning (TBL): Through comprehension questions, vocabulary practice, and classroom - record brainstorming.
Measurement Simulation: Using rulers to “visualize” Sandra’s book size (60 cm×40 cm×21 cm).
Collaborative Learning: Group work for classroom records, emphasizing peer feedback on creativity and feasibility.
IV. Teaching Aids
CAI (e - mail - display slides, vocabulary - definition animations, measurement - demo tools).
Textbook, worksheets, and “Record - Description Cards” (with prompts like “Largest book in class” for group work).
V. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Warm - up – Competition Memories (5 mins)
Discuss the THINK ABOUT IT questions:
Have you ever won a competition? What was it? (E.g., “Won a spelling bee—felt proud!”)
How do you feel when you get a prize? (E.g., “Excited, proud—hard work paid off.”)
Share: Invite 3–4 students to share. Write down keywords: competition, prize, records, proud.
Step 2: Pre - reading – E - mail & Vocabulary Prep (8 mins)
E - mail Structure Preview:
Highlight two e - mails: Danny’s (class records) → Li Ming’s (sports meet record).
Teach e - mail - reading tips: “Look for names (Brian, Sandra) and record details.”
Vocabulary Introduction:
Teach words with context examples:
photograph: “Sandra’s book has family photographs.”
photographer: “A photographer takes pictures to keep memories.”
keep: “Pictures keep memories alive.”
several: “Li Ming won several prizes in sports meets.”
lift: “The boy lifted 90 kg—amazing!”
become: “He hopes to become an Olympic weightlifter.”
Step 3: Reading – E - mail Detail Extraction (12 mins)
Complete Let’s Do It! 1 (Comprehension Questions):

It was 60 cm long, 40 cm wide, 21 cm thick—full of family photographs.
Li Ming felt amazed (thought it was amazing).
He set the long - jump record in the spring sports meet.
Measurement Simulation:
Use rulers to show 60 cm×40 cm×21 cm (Sandra’s book size). Discuss: “How heavy/bulky would that be?”
Step 4: Vocabulary & Phrase Practice (10 mins)
Complete Let’s Do It! 2 (Vocabulary Filling):
Answers (First Box):
photographs (take photographs); keep (keep memories); photographer (being a photographer).
Answers (Second Box):
lifted (lifted 90 kg); become (become a weightlifter); several (several gold medals).
Sentence Expansion:
“A photographer takes photographs to keep memories. Li Ming hopes to become a champion who lifts heavy weights and wins several medals.”
