Unit 6 A Day in the Life-Section A-Grammar Focus

Students will be able to master the usage of special interrogative sentences led by "what", "what time", and "when" to ask about daily activities and time. They can accurately construct such sentences like "What do you do after school?", "What time does your school start?", and "When do you usually go to bed?".

Students will be able to use time expressions correctly to answer the above - mentioned questions. They can express time precisely, for example, "I get up at six thirty every morning." and "We have lunch at a quarter to twelve."

Through practicing these grammar points, students' oral and written English expression abilities will be improved. They can describe their own and others' daily routines clearly and accurately in English.

This unit focuses on "A Day in the Life", and the Grammar Focus part in Section A plays a crucial role. It systematically presents the key grammar items of this unit, which are special interrogative sentences led by "what" and "when" and the time expressions. These grammar points are fundamental for students to describe daily activities and understand others' daily routines. They build a solid foundation for students to further develop their language skills in terms of speaking, listening, reading, and writing about daily life topics.

The content of this part is closely related to the previous and following sections. It not only reviews and consolidates the vocabulary and simple sentence patterns learned in the previous dialogues but also paves the way for more complex language expressions and in - depth understanding of the text in the subsequent sections.

By the time of learning this unit, students in Grade Seven have already learned some basic English words and simple sentence patterns. They have a certain foundation in vocabulary related to daily activities, such as "get up", "go to school", "have lunch", etc. In terms of grammar, they have been exposed to the simple present tense in some simple sentences, but their understanding of it is still at a relatively basic level.

教学环节一  Warming - up

Greet the students and start a simple daily conversation. For example, the teacher asks, "How was your weekend?" Encourage students to answer with simple sentences, such as "I played basketball on the weekend." This can create a relaxed English - speaking atmosphere and arouse students' interest.

Then, show some pictures of daily life activities, such as a student getting up, having breakfast, and going to school. Point to the pictures one by one and ask students, "What can you see in this picture? Do you know how to ask about these activities in English?" Guide students to recall the relevant vocabulary and lead to the topic of this lesson - asking about the time of daily activities.

教学环节二 Teaching Procedures
