Unit 2 No Rules, No Order-Section B 2a-2c This section of Unit 2 in the 2024 People's Education Press English textbook for Grade 7 focuses on the theme of "rules." It presents a letter from Eric to Dr. Know, where Eric complains about the numerous rules he has to follow in his daily life, such as cleaning his room, wearing a school uniform, and practicing the violin. Through this letter, students are exposed to the language used to describe rules and the challenges one may face in adhering to them. The subsequent tasks in 2b and 2c require students to analyze the rules, discuss their importance, and offer advice, aiming to enhance students' reading comprehension, critical thinking, and language application skills. 教学目标 Students will be able to master key words and phrases related to rules, including "clean the room", "get untidy", "wear one's own clothes", "practice the violin", "have to", "must", "can't", "mustn't" etc. Students will understand and correctly use modal verbs "can", "have to / must", and "can't / mustn't" to express rules in different contexts. Through reading the letter in 2a, students can improve their reading comprehension ability, quickly obtain key information, and understand the main problem Eric is facing. By participating in the discussion in 2b, students will enhance their oral communication skills, be able to express their views on the importance of rules and give reasonable advice in English. Students will be able to write a reply letter to Eric as Dr. Know, providing appropriate advice, thus improving their written expression ability. 教学重难点 Mastery of key words, phrases, and sentence patterns related to rules. For example, students should be proficient in using phrases like "follow the rules", "break the rules", and sentence patterns such as "I have to...", "You mustn't...". The correct usage of modal verbs "can", "have to / must", and "can't / mustn't" to accurately convey different degrees of obligation, permission, and prohibition. Understanding the main idea and details of the reading passage, being able to summarize Eric's problems clearly. 1 Key Words and Phrases clean the room: to make the room neat and free of dirt get untidy: to become messy or disorderly wear one's own clothes: to put on the clothes that belong to oneself practice the violin: to repeatedly play the violin to improve skills too many: a large number of (used with countable nouns) after school: the time following the end of school classes watch TV: to view television programs finish homework: to complete school assignments walk the dog: to take the dog for a stroll have fun: to enjoy oneself, have a good time 2 Modal Verbs Can: Expresses ability, e.g., "I can speak English." Used to ask for permission in informal situations, e.g., "Can I have a glass of water?" In the negative form "can't", it indicates prohibition or inability, e.g., "You can't run in the classroom." Have to / Must: Both express obligation. "Have to" usually implies an external obligation, such as "I have to wear a uniform at school because it's a school rule." "Must" often indicates an internal obligation or strong necessity, like "You must study hard if you want to get good grades." The negative form of "have to" is "don't / doesn't have to", meaning no obligation, e.g., "You don't have to come early tomorrow." The negative form of "must" is "mustn't", indicating prohibition, e.g., "You mustn't smoke here." 教学过程 1 Warming - up (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual. Then start a free talk: "Dear students, we all know that we live in a world full of rules. Can you share some rules you have at home or at school? For example, do you have to go to bed early at home? Or are there any rules about eating in the classroom at school?" Encourage several students to share their ideas. This activity aims to activate students' prior knowledge related to the topic of rules and create a relaxed and communicative atmosphere for the following class. 2 Pre - reading (10 minutes) Present the title "No Rules, No Order" on the blackboard or through a PPT. Ask students to predict what the passage might be about based on the title. Then show some pictures related to rules at home and at school, such as a picture of a messy room with a sign "Clean your room every day", or a picture of students in school uniforms. Ask students to describe these pictures using the words and phrases they already know. Next, introduce the background of the reading material: "Today, we are going to read a letter from a boy named Eric to Dr. Know. Eric is troubled by many rules in his life. Let's see what problems he has." 3 While - reading (15 minutes) Fast Reading: Ask students to read the letter in 2a quickly and find out the main problem of Eric. After they finish reading, invite a student to summarize the main idea. The student may answer: "Eric has too many rules at home and school, and he feels troubled." Careful Reading: Ask students to read the letter again carefully and complete the blanks with the correct modal verbs "can", "have to / must", or "can't / mustn't" in the textbook. Then, check the answers together. During this process, explain the usage of these modal verbs in the context of the sentences. For example, in the sentence "I ____ clean my room every day", "have to" is used because it is an external obligation set by his parents. After that, ask students to underline the rules mentioned in the letter and discuss in pairs why these rules might be important. For example, for the rule "I have to wear a school uniform", students may discuss that it can create a sense of unity and equality among students. 4 Post - reading (10 minutes) Group Discussion: Choose three important rules from 2a and ask students to discuss the questions in 2b with a partner. Give them about 3 - 5 minutes to discuss. Then, invite some groups to share their discussion results with the whole class. For example, for the rule "I can't watch TV after school until I finish my homework", students may say that this rule is important because it helps them focus on their studies first. Their advice could be "You can make a study plan and set a specific time for watching TV after finishing homework." Writing Activity: Ask students to write a reply to Eric as Dr. Know, giving him some advice. Remind them to use the modal verbs correctly and organize their ideas logically. Provide some useful expressions and sentence structures on the blackboard, such as "You could...", "It would be a good idea to...", "I suggest that you...". Walk around the classroom to offer guidance and answer students' questions during their writing process. 5 Summary and Homework Assignment (5 minutes) Summary: Summarize the key points of this lesson, including the usage of modal verbs, the importance of rules, and how to give advice. Review some of the important rules and advice that students discussed and wrote about. Homework Assignment: Ask students to rewrite their reply letters after class, making sure to improve the language and organization. Then, ask them to share their letters with their parents or friends and get feedback. Additionally, they can think about some rules in their community and write down at least three of them and their reasons for existence. 教学反思 Positive Aspects: The warming - up activity was effective in engaging students as they were actively sharing their experiences about rules, which smoothly led to the topic of the class. The reading tasks were well - structured. The fast - reading and careful - reading steps gradually guided students to understand the text, and the subsequent discussion about the importance of rules helped students think deeply about the content. The writing activity provided students with an opportunity to apply what they had learned, and most students were able to use the modal verbs and the given expressions to write a basic reply letter. Areas for Improvement: Some students still had difficulty distinguishing the usage of "have to" and "must". More examples and exercises could be given in future classes to strengthen their understanding. During the group discussion, a few students were less involved. In the future, more specific group - work instructions and monitoring should be carried out to ensure every student participates actively. In the writing assessment, it was found that some students' letters lacked coherence. In subsequent writing lessons, more attention should be paid to teaching students how to organize their ideas and use connecting words. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
