Unit 8 Save Our World
Lesson 48: Garbage Is Interesting!
I. Teaching Objectives
By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
Extract details about weekly environmental activities (clean - up, garbage sorting, etc.) to complete tables, aligning with High school entrance examination reading - detail extraction.
Master garbage - related vocabulary and phrases (e.g., clean up, pick up, go for a walk, put on) and use them in dialogues, preparing for High school entrance examination vocabulary tasks.
Understand hazardous waste and its proper disposal and identify hazardous items, supporting High school entrance examination - style environmental - awareness analysis.
Collaborate in discussing personal environmental responsibilities, enhancing High school entrance examination teamwork and reflective - writing skills.
II. Key Points & Difficulties
Key Points
Weekly Environmental Activities:
Tuesday: Schoolyard clean - up (World Environment Day).
Tuesday (later): Neighbourhood walk, picking up garbage.
Wednesday: Garbage sorting (paper, glass, metal, plastic).
Today: Danny makes a car from garbage.
Later this month: Visit recycling centre.
Vocabulary & Phrases:
clean up, pick up, go for a walk, put on — used in describing actions.
Hazardous waste: poison, explode, dangerous.
Difficulties
Remembering sequential weekly activities (e.g., Tuesday’s two events).
Accurately using phrases in dialogues (e.g., “Let’s clean up the schoolyard.”).
Identifying hazardous waste and explaining disposal (e.g., why batteries are hazardous).
III. Teaching Methods
Task - Based Learning (TBL): Through table completion, dialogue writing, hazardous - waste identification, and responsibility discussions.
Role - Playing: Acting out garbage - sorting or dialogue scenarios.
Collaborative Learning: Group work for environmental - responsibility debates, emphasizing peer feedback on clarity.
IV. Teaching Aids
CAI (weekly - activity timeline animations, vocabulary - phrase videos, hazardous - waste examples).
Textbook, worksheets, and “Activity Cards” (with “clean up,” “sort garbage” for sorting).
V. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Warm - up – Garbage as “Interesting” (5 mins)
Discuss the THINK ABOUT IT questions:
Do you think garbage is interesting? Why/why not? (E.g., “Yes—can be reused; no—smells bad.”)
What have you done in a schoolyard clean - up? (E.g., “Picked up litter, sorted recycling.”)
Share: Invite 3–4 students. Write down keywords: garbage, clean - up, interesting, reuse.
Step 2: Pre - reading – Vocabulary & Activity Prep (8 mins)
Vocabulary Introduction:
Teach phrases with actions:
clean up: “Clean up the room—pick up toys.”
pick up: “Pick up garbage—put it in bins.”
go for a walk: “Go for a walk—look for litter.”
put on: “Put on gloves to sort garbage.”
Activity Timeline Prediction:
Ask: What weekly activities will Jenny blog about? (Clean - up, sorting, recycling trip).

Step 5: Group Project – “My Environmental Responsibility” (15 mins)
Task Introduction:
Reflection Template:
Action I’ll Take
Why It Matters
Example (Week 1)
Sort garbage
Helps recycling; reduces pollution.
“Separate paper/plastic at home.”
Reduce waste
Less garbage = less hazardous waste.
“Use both sides of paper.”
Guiding Questions:
What’s one small action to take?
How does it help the environment?
Group Work:
Students share reflections, get feedback on:
Realism (e.g., “Sorting garbage daily—doable?”)
Impact (e.g., “Reducing waste cuts pollution.”)
Class Sharing:
Groups present reflections. Feedback focuses on:
Clarity of action.
Connection to lesson (e.g., “Links to Jenny’s garbage sorting.”)
Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 mins)
Summary:
Recap weekly activities, vocabulary, hazardous waste, and personal responsibilities.
Homework:
(1)Write a 6 - sentence reflection: “My Garbage - Free Week” (use 3 lesson terms: clean up, sort, recycle).
(2)Find one hazardous item at home and research its proper disposal.
