Starter Unit 3 Welcome! Lesson 2 Section B 1a-1e
Teaching Objectives
1. Recognize and name animals and plants shown in pictures; accurately use descriptive adjectives to talk about their sizes and colors.
2. Sort out the narrative logic of reading passages based on texts and pictures, and extract specific detailed information correctly.
3. Integrate all vocabulary and sentence patterns learned in this unit to give a full description of a farm scene.
Teaching Content
The core reading material is an oral self-introduction text. A boy named Han Lin introduces his uncle’s farm to his foreign classmate Peter.
Narrative Logic of the Farm Introduction
Han Lin adopts a general-to-particular writing order:
1. Opening: Directly point out the picture shows his uncle’s large farm.
2. Overall overview: Talk about the farm’s space and the wide green grassland that takes up most of the area.
3. Midground description: Introduce all kinds of animals scattered around the grass from left to right, far to near.
4. Ending part: Describe the core building on the farm — his uncle’s house.
Reading & Writing Task Chain (1a–1e)
This set of activities follows the reading-to-writing teaching idea and arranges tasks with progressive difficulty:
1. Pre-reading: Activity 1a (Picture observation & vocabulary matching)
2. Reading Comprehension: Activity 1b & 1c (Text analysis & detail questions)
3. Writing Training: Activity 1d & 1e
· Activity 1b–1d: Step-by-step output practice, including circling nouns, filling semi-open sentences and writing complete answers.
· Activity 1e: Semi-structured writing template. Students imitate sentence patterns from the reading text and write coherent paragraphs to describe farm scenery, which develops their basic English writing competence.
