Warm-up (5 mins)​ Activity: Quick Brainstorm Show the title of the extended reading: "Laughter is the best medicine." Ask: "What does this saying mean? Do you agree? Can you think of a time when laughing helped you feel better?" Elicit responses and connect to the unit's theme of managing emotions. II. Pre-Reading & Project Setup (8 mins) Activity 1: Predicting & Vocabulary Activation Students look at the title and any pictures accompanying the "Laughter is the best medicine" text. In pairs, they predict: What might the text be about? (e.g., science of laughter, stories, benefits). Teacher pre-teaches/revises key vocabulary that might appear: relieve stress, boost mood, connection, perspective. Activity 2: Project Introduction (4a) Explain the final project: "Share and solve problems". Instruct students to think of a common worry or problem (anonymously) and write it on a slip of paper as per 4a. III. While-Reading (12 mins) Activity 1: Silent Reading for Gist Students read the "Laughter is the best medicine"​ text individually. Task: What is the main message of the text? (e.g., Laughter has physical and mental health benefits; it's a powerful tool for coping.) Activity 2: Detailed Reading & Task Students read the text again. Task: Complete a simple T-chart or answer guided questions: What are 2-3 benefits of laughter mentioned in the text? How can laughter help us "grow up" or deal with emotions? Activity 3: Sharing & Discussion Students share their findings in small groups. Teacher leads a brief class discussion, linking the text's ideas back to the unit's big question: "How do we deal with our emotions?" IV. Post-reading & Project Work (15 mins) Activity 1: Problem Collection & Distribution (4b) Collect all anonymous problem slips from students. Redistribute them randomly to different groups (4b). Each group gets one problem slip. Activity 2: Group Discussion & Solution Brainstorming (4c) In groups, students read the problem they received. They discuss and brainstorm supportive, practical advice. Encourage them to: Show empathy (e.g., "It's understandable to feel..."). Use language from the unit (e.g., You could..., Why don't you..., Although it's hard, you can try...). Consider ideas from the reading (e.g., "Finding humor in the situation might help..."). Activity 3: Preparation for Presentation Groups prepare a short presentation (4d). They will: State the problem (without revealing who wrote it). Present 2-3 main pieces of advice. Give a brief reason for their advice. V. Summary, Presentation (5 mins) One or two groups volunteer to present their problem and solutions to the class. Teacher summarizes: Today we learned about the power of positive strategies like laughter and peer support to manage emotions and solve problems. 作业设计 Homework Design Write a short reflection (5-7 sentences). Choose one: Reflect on the main idea of "Laughter is the best medicine." Give more detailed advice for the problem your group discussed in class. Prepare to present your group's solution in the next class if you didn't today. 板书设计 Blackboard Design 教学反思 Teaching Reflection Integrating the extended reading directly into the project provided a meaningful context and enriched the quality of students' advice. The anonymous problem-sharing lowered anxiety and increased engagement. More time could be allocated for group presentations to ensure all voices are heard. 教学评价Teaching Evaluation Students successfully engaged with the extended text, extracting its relevance to the unit theme. The group work demonstrated improved collaborative skills and empathetic communication. Most students were able to apply vocabulary and structures from the unit to formulate constructive advice, showing good synthesis of the unit's content. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
