Unit 1 School Is Interesting - Period6 Grammar
【Textbook Analysis】
This grammar lesson focuses on Present Simple Agreement within the context of Unit 1 "School Is Interesting." The unit content extensively uses Present Simple for describing school life, daily routines, and habitual actions. Students have encountered sentences like "We learn English in the classroom" and "The teachers give us practical tips." This lesson systematically addresses subject-verb agreement rules, connecting grammar learning with the unit's thematic content.
【Student Analysis】
Students have been exposed to Present Simple structures throughout the unit but may not have systematically learned agreement rules. Common errors include: "He learn English" (missing -s), "They studies history" (incorrect plural form), "She don't like math" (incorrect negative). Students need explicit instruction and practice with third-person singular forms and agreement in questions/negatives. The vocational school context provides authentic material for practice.
【Teaching Focus & Difficulties】
Teaching Focus:
1.Understanding subject-verb agreement rules in Present Simple
2.Correctly using third-person singular -s/-es endings
3.Forming questions and negatives with correct agreement
Teaching Difficulties:
1.Remembering to add -s/-es to third-person singular verbs
2.Using correct auxiliaries (do/does) in questions and negatives
3.Applying rules consistently in speaking and writing
Learning Objectives
【Knowledge & Skills】
1.Students will be able to identify subject-verb agreement errors in Present Simple sentences
2.Students will be able to correctly conjugate verbs for third-person singular subjects
3.Students will be able to form Present Simple questions and negatives with proper agreement
4.Students will be able to apply agreement rules in describing school routines and preferences
【Process & Methods】
Through discovery activities with unit texts, structured rule presentation, controlled practice exercises, error correction tasks, and communicative activities about school life, students will develop accuracy in using Present Simple agreement while reinforcing unit vocabulary and themes.
【Affect, Attitude & Values】

step 1
Text Analysis from Unit 1:
1. Display sentences from unit texts:
- "We learn English in the classroom."
- "Wu Lin likes her new school."
- "The teachers give us practical tips."
- "She comes from Weifang."
2. Ask: What do you notice about the verbs?
3. Identify patterns: plural subjects vs. singular subjects
4. Introduce today's focus: Present Simple Agreement
To use familiar content for grammar discovery, activate prior knowledge from the unit, encourage pattern recognition, and establish relevance to previous learning.
step 2
Agreement Rules Presentation:
1. Basic rule: Add -s/-es to verb with he/she/it singular subjects
2. Spelling rules: -s, -es, -ies endings
3. Questions: Do/Does + subject + base verb
4. Negatives: Subject + don't/doesn't + base verb
5. Examples from unit content with color coding:
- Wu Lin likes cookery class.
- The students don't have class on Sunday.
- Does she come from Beijing?
6. Create rule posters in groups
To provide clear, systematic explanation of rules, use visual aids to enhance understanding, connect rules to unit content, and promote active learning through poster creation.
step 3
Structured Practice Activities:
1. Verb conjugation: Complete charts with I/you/we/they/he/she/it
2. Error correction: Find and fix agreement errors in unit sentences
3. Sentence transformation: Positive → Negative → Question
4. Fill-in-blanks: Choose correct verb form
5. Matching: Subjects with correct verb forms
6. Quick drills: Teacher says subject, students say verb form
To provide focused practice on specific rules, develop accuracy through repetition, build confidence with structured tasks, and address common errors systematically.
step 4
School Life Application:
1. Describe your daily routine: "I get up at 6:30. My friend gets up at 7:00."
2. Compare schools: "In vocational school, we have workshops. In junior high, we don't have workshops."
3. Interview activity: Ask/answer questions about school life
4. Write about your favorite teacher: "Mr. Wang teaches us mechanical basics. He doesn't give too much homework."
5. Create "Our Class Rules" using Present Simple
To apply grammar in meaningful contexts, connect to students' real experiences, practice agreement in communication, and reinforce unit themes through grammar use.
step 5
Review and Production:
1. Grammar auction: Bid on correct/incorrect sentences
2. Peer teaching: Explain one rule to partner
3. Writing task: Email to friend about your school (focus on agreement)
4. Self-assessment: Check own writing for agreement errors
5. Exit ticket: Write 3 correct sentences about your school routine
To review learning through engaging activities, develop meta-cognitive awareness of rules, assess understanding through production, and provide immediate feedback on learning.
Assessment & Reflection
【Assessment】
Formative: Accuracy in controlled practice; participation in discovery activities; quality of rule explanations; performance in contextual applications
Summative: Completed writing task with focus on agreement; exit ticket sentences; peer teaching effectiveness
【Reflection】
The connection to unit content makes grammar learning more meaningful. Need to provide ample practice with third-person singular forms as this is most challenging. The spelling rules for -s/-es/-ies may need separate practice. Encourage self-monitoring during speaking activities. Prepare additional examples for students who need more support. Celebrate progress in noticing and correcting agreement errors.
