教学重难点
Key Points
1. Master skimming and scanning reading strategies properly;
2. Figure out the importance of bees and the ecological connection between creatures and humans;
3. Find and understand descriptive adjectives in the text.
Difficult Points
1. Comprehend logical relations in popular science expository writing;
2. Finish paragraph writing about bees and explain ecological connections with daily examples in English properly.
学情分析
Grade 8 students have mastered simple skimming and scanning skills in former reading classes.
They lack professional vocabulary of ecology and have difficulty understanding long complex sentences in science articles.
They know basic common sense of bee pollination in daily life, but cannot express the relationship between creatures and humans with complete standard English sentences.
They show great interest in short videos, picture observation and group discussion, so task-based hierarchical reading activities fit their learning characteristics well.
教学准备
PPT with ecological relationship diagrams; short video of bee pollination; original text audio recording; printed reading task sheets; adjective collection worksheet.
Student preparation
Preview new words of this unit in advance; observe the connection between plants, insects and human life in daily life.
教学过程
1. Skimming (7 mins)
Task 1: Read the whole passage quickly, summarize the main importance of bees, and find the topic sentence of the article.
Task 2: Underline all adjectives used by the writer to describe bees, plants and natural environment while reading; check answers in groups.
2. Scanning (8 mins)
Set targeted detailed questions, let students scan the text quickly to find exact sentences and key information, finish blank-filling and multiple-choice exercises on the task sheet. Teachers walk around to guide slow students.
3. Reading for detailed understanding (7 mins)
Students read paragraphs carefully sentence by sentence, grasp detailed logic of ecological chains; discuss given comprehension questions in groups of four, share their opinions in class afterwards. Teacher explains typical long difficult sentences properly.
Part 3 Post-reading (10 mins)
1. Writing practice: Ask students to write one extra paragraph about bees, based on the text content and their own understanding.
2. Life connection discussion: Encourage students to think of real-life examples around them showing bees’ influence on human life, share examples in pairs or whole class

教学反思
After class, record students’ performance in skimming and scanning tasks; analyze the obstacle points of vocabulary and long sentences for next targeted supplementary teaching; evaluate the quality of students’ independent paragraph writing, optimize topic discussion questions to fit closer daily life in the next class. Adjust task time arrangement according to students’ actual reading speed properly.
