教学过程 Teaching Procedures
I. Warm-up (5 mins)
Activity: Brainstorm hobby benefits using a word web.
Teacher: "How can hobbies improve our lives? Let’s brainstorm!"
Students: Suggest words/phrases (e.g., relax, make friends, learn skills).
Purpose: Activate prior knowledge and introduce the reading theme.
II. Pre-reading (5 mins)
Activity 1: Predict content based on title and pictures (1a).
Teacher: "Look at the title 'How Can a Hobby Improve Your Life?' and the pictures. What do you think the text will discuss?"
Activity 2: Pre-teach vocabulary (sense of achievement, creative, reduce stress)
III. While-reading (15 mins)
Step 1 – Skimming (1b)
Students skim the text to identify the two teenagers’ hobbies (Luca: app development; Maya: postcard collecting).
Step 2 – Scanning (1c)
Students scan the text to complete the mind map:
Benefits: Relaxation, learning skills, making friends, reducing stress, sense of achievement.
Examples: Luca’s app helps people learn Italian; Maya’s postcards inspire travel dreams.
Step 3 – Detailed Reading (1d)
Students read closely to answer inferential questions:
Why does Luca feel a "sense of achievement"? (His app helps people globally.)
How does Maya’s hobby connect to culture? (Postcards teach about different places.)
IV. Post-reading (10 mins)
Activity 1 – Discussion (1e)
Students discuss: "What new hobby would you like to take up? Why?" using infinitives (e.g., I want to try coding to develop problem-solving skills).
Activity 2 – Role-play
Students role-play interviews: "Reporter" asks "Hobbyist" about their hobby’s benefits.
V. Summary (3 mins)
Review key benefits of hobbies using a T-chart:
Personal: Relaxation, stress reduction.
Social/Cultural: Making friends, learning about cultures.

教学反思
Teaching Reflection
Students engaged well with real-life examples but needed support to infer abstract concepts like "sense of achievement."
Visual aids (mind map) helped organize information effectively.
教学评价Teaching Evaluation
80% of students accurately completed the mind map (1c).
Discussion task showed improved use of infinitives to express purpose.
