By the end of the lesson, students will be able to:
Language Ability: Skim and scan a vlog script to identify key attractions; Understand and use phrases like get a taste of, be well worth, in the centre of.
Cultural Awareness: Appreciate the blend of history (Palace Museum) and daily life (Siheyuan/Hutong) in Beijing; Reflect on the concept of "hometown" as a carrier of memory.
Thinking Quality: Analyze the structure of a vlog (Intro-Body-Conclusion); Infer the author’s emotion (pride/welcoming) from tone and word choice.
Learning Ability: Use context clues to guess meanings; Collaborate to create a mind map of the tour route.
II. Key and Difficult Points
Key Points: Understanding the spatial order of the vlog; Mastering the inverted sentence "In the centre of Beijing is the Palace Museum."
Difficult Points: Grasping the abstract meaning of "get a taste of the past"; Differentiating between factual description and emotional appeal.
III. Teaching Methods & Aids
Methods: Top-down Reading Approach, Cooperative Learning, Critical Thinking Questions.
Aids: Video clip of a Beijing vlog, PPT with route map, Worksheet for mind mapping.
IV. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Pre-reading
Lead-in: Play a 30-second silent video of Beijing scenes. Ask: "If you were a vlogger, what title would you give this video?"
Prediction: Look at the title "My hometown, Beijing" and the picture.
Q1: What kind of language will the writer use? (Formal or informal?)
Q2: What three things do you expect to see? (Food, Places, People?)
Step 2: While-reading
(1) Task 1: Skimming for Structure (Part A): Read quickly and complete the chart. Identify the 4 main stops: Palace Museum, Tian’anmen Square, Siheyuan/Hutong, Food/Opera.
(2) Task 2: Scanning for Details (Part B): Read again and circle correct words.
Focus: Time (early morning), Shape (square), Location (centre).
(3) Task 3: Deep Dive (Language & Emotion):
Sentence Analysis: "In the centre of Beijing is the Palace Museum." (Discuss why the author puts the location first – emphasis on place).
Phrase Study: "Get a taste of the past."
Ask: "Can you literally taste the past? What does it mean?" (Experience/Feel).
Emotion Check: Find words that show the writer loves Beijing (amazing, wonderful, delicious, don’t miss).
Step 3: Post-reading
(1) Activity:
Scenario: You are walking through a Hutong. Close your eyes. Imagine the sounds and smells. How would you feel?
(2) Discussion: Why does the writer suggest walking through Hutongs instead of just taking a bus? (To feel the life, not just see the buildings).
(3) Connection: How is this similar to or different from your hometown? Do you have old streets?
(4) Task: Complete the travel plan in Part C individually, then check in pairs.
Step 4: Summary & Retelling
Mind Map: Draw a route on the board. Students retell the vlog using the map and key phrases (show around, well worth, get a taste of).
V. Homework
Read the script aloud with emotion (record and send).
Write 3 sentences describing your favorite place in your hometown using "be well worth" and "get a taste of".
