Unit 1 School life-B School activities (Speaking)
This part of the teaching material is from Unit 1 "School life" of the English textbook for Grade Six (Five - Four System, 2024 edition of Shanghai Education Press). The "My school life (Writing & Discovery)" section focuses on guiding students to describe their school life in English. It provides relevant vocabulary, sentence patterns, and writing frameworks to help students organize their thoughts and express their experiences and feelings about school life. Through reading some sample texts about school life, students can learn how to use different sentence structures and expressions to make their writing more vivid and accurate. Meanwhile, the "Discovery" part may encourage students to observe and explore some language features or cultural aspects related to school life, enhancing their language awareness and cross - cultural communication ability.

教学过程
A. Lead - in (5 minutes)
Greet the students as usual and then show some pictures of different schools on the PPT. Ask students: "Look at these pictures. Can you tell me something about your school? What do you usually do at school?" Encourage several students to share their ideas briefly.
Play a short video about school life, which contains students having classes, doing sports, and participating in club activities. After watching, ask students to recall what they saw in the video and describe some scenes in simple English.
B. Knowledge Presentation (10 minutes)
Vocabulary Teaching
Present the new vocabulary related to school life on the PPT one by one. For each word, show its picture and pronunciation. For example, when teaching "library", show a picture of a library and read the word aloud several times, and then let students imitate the pronunciation.
Ask students to read the words in pairs, and the teacher walks around the classroom to correct their pronunciation if necessary.
Do a quick vocabulary quiz. Show the pictures on the PPT and ask students to quickly say out the corresponding English words.
Sentence Pattern Teaching
Write some key sentence patterns on the blackboard, such as "I have... classes every day." Point to the pattern and explain its usage. Then give an example: "I have four classes every morning."
Ask students to make sentences using this pattern according to their own situations. Invite some students to share their sentences in class.
Do the same for other sentence patterns, such as "I like... because..." and "After class, I often...". Let students practice making sentences in groups of four, and each group selects one representative to share the best sentences with the whole class.
C. Reading and Analysis (10 minutes)
Provide a short sample text about school life on the PPT. The text can be like this:
"My School Life
I study at Sunshine Primary School. It is a beautiful school with a big playground and a nice library.
Every day, I have six classes. My favorite subject is English because I like my English teacher. She is very kind and teaches us many interesting things.
After class, I often play basketball with my classmates on the playground. Sometimes, I go to the library to read books.
I really enjoy my school life at Sunshine Primary School."
Let students read the text silently for the first time and ask them to find out the main idea of the text. Then invite a student to answer.
Let students read the text again, this time aloud. While they are reading, ask them to underline the sentences that describe school activities, subjects, and the author's feelings.
Analyze the text structure together. Point out the introduction part (the first paragraph), the body part (the second and third paragraphs), and the conclusion part (the last paragraph). Explain how the author uses different paragraphs to organize the content.
Ask students some detailed questions about the text, such as "How many classes does the author have every day?", "Why does the author like English?", etc., to check their understanding.
D. Writing Guidance (12 minutes)
Brainstorming
Divide students into groups of four. Ask them to brainstorm about their own school life. They can discuss the following aspects: What subjects do you have? What is your favorite subject? What do you do after class? What clubs are there in your school? etc. Each group member takes turns to share their ideas, and one member records the main points.
Outlining
Guide students to make an outline for their writing according to the text structure they just learned. For the introduction, they can write the name of their school and a simple description. In the body part, list the school activities and subjects they want to write about. And for the conclusion, think about how to express their feelings about school life.
Drafting
Let students start writing their own passages about school life based on the outline and the brainstorming results. Remind them to use the vocabulary and sentence patterns they have just learned. The teacher walks around the classroom to provide individual guidance, such as helping with grammar mistakes, word usage, or organization of ideas.
E. Discovery and Extension (5 minutes)
Discovery
Present some sentences about school life in different cultures on the PPT, for example, "In some American schools, students have lockers to keep their books." and "In Japanese schools, students clean the classrooms by themselves." Let students read these sentences and discuss in groups: What are the differences between these school lives and ours? What can we learn from them?
After the discussion, invite some groups to share their findings with the whole class.
Extension
Encourage students to think about how they can make their school life more interesting in the future. Ask them to write down one or two suggestions in English at the end of their writing.
F. Summary and Homework Assignment (3 minutes)
Summary
Summarize the key points of this class with students, including the vocabulary, sentence patterns, text structure, and the process of writing about school life. Emphasize the importance of using diverse language and expressing true feelings in writing.
Homework Assignment
Ask students to finish their writing about school life neatly and decorate it with some relevant pictures. They can also share their writing with their parents at home.
Let students collect more information about school life in other countries and be ready to share it in the next class.
教学反思
After this class, overall, most students showed great interest in the topic of school life. The lead - in part with pictures and videos successfully attracted their attention and activated their prior knowledge. In the vocabulary and sentence pattern teaching, through various practice methods, students basically mastered the key words and sentence patterns, which provided a good foundation for their writing. However, during the writing process, it was found that some students still had difficulties in using vivid language and organizing their ideas. In the future, more writing practice and guidance on language expression and logical thinking should be provided. Also, in the "Discovery" part, students' enthusiasm for exploring cultural differences was high, but the time was a bit limited. Next time, more time can be allocated to this part to let students have a deeper discussion and understanding.
