Teaching Steps 【教学步骤】
★Step 1 Lead in【导入】
1. Have students look back at the passage “From pain to gain” and answer the question: What was the writer’s failure?
2. Tell students that they’re going to write a passage about a failure in their lives.
★Step 2 Pre-task【准备任务】
1. Ask students to read the five questions in step 1.
2. Give students 3 minutes to think of one time they failed of something.
3. In pairs, have students briefly tell their partner about their failure using the first two questions: What happened? What was the pain for you?
★Step 3 While-task【过程任务】
1. Give students some examples about the five questions in step 1.
2. Ask them to think and take notes for these five questions.
3. Let them write a passage using their notes. Remind them to follow the order of the questions to structure their stories.
4. Provide language support if needed.
★Step 4 Post-task【后续任务】

2. Ask them to check their partner’s story using the list in step 3.

4. Invite 2-3 students to read their passages aloud. Praise their use of unit language and clear structure.
★Step 5 Homework【家庭作业】
Ask students to write a final, polished version of their passage.
Teaching reflection 【教学反思】
Using the diary From pain to gain as a clear model helped students understand how to structure a personal failure narrative. The five guiding questions provided effective scaffolding, allowing most students to organize their thoughts coherently. The main difficulty was encouraging students to move beyond simply listing events to expressing genuine reflection on growth. In the future, I will provide sentence starters for the reflection part to help them articulate their personal takeaway more easily.
