Starter Unit 3 Welcome!-Section A-2a-2d 1. Status and Function This part is from Starter Unit 3 Welcome! of the new PEP English textbook for Grade 7. It serves as a crucial link in the unit, focusing on developing students' listening and speaking skills related to rural life, especially about the plants and animals in a yard. By learning this part, students can not only review and expand their vocabulary about plants and animals but also master key sentence patterns for daily communication, laying a solid foundation for subsequent learning in this unit and even the whole junior high school English study. 2. Content Analysis 2a: This activity is a pre - listening task. It presents a picture of a Chinese farmyard with various plants and animals, and the corresponding English words are given. The purpose is to help students review and consolidate the vocabulary they learned in primary school, such as "cat", "rabbit", "tomato plants", "apple trees", etc., and get them familiar with the context of the following listening materials. 2b: The listening material contains three short conversations. In the first conversation, Fu Xing introduces her grandfather to Peter and Helen, and they greet each other. Then, they start to talk about the animals in the yard. The second conversation focuses on the plants in the yard. Peter mistakes carrot plants for potato plants. The third conversation is about Helen asking about the types of trees and the number of apple trees and rabbits. Through these conversations, students can practice listening for specific information, such as the names of plants and animals, and the number of certain things. 2c: After listening, this activity requires students to practice the conversations in pairs according to the information in 2b. It aims to improve students' speaking ability and their proficiency in using the learned sentence patterns and vocabulary in real - life situations. 2d: This is a role - play activity.
