Unit 1 You and Me Lesson 4 Section B 1a-1d
Teaching Objectives
1. Students can recognize basic features of new media online texts, such as tool icons, folded interfaces, usernames and posting time.
2. Students can sort out posters’ personal information from pictures and passages, and finish personal information charts.
3. Students can compare their own information with the posters’ and briefly introduce themselves and their friends with learned sentence structures.
Teaching Content
This is the 4th period of the unit. The reading materials are two online pen pal posts, which carry typical features of new media texts, including side tool icons, folded layouts, usernames and release time. The headline Making new friends shows the theme of the forum, and Pauline and Peter post to look for pen pals.
Online forums are common social platforms where users share news, ask questions, seek help and make friends. Real forum posts sound colloquial, with many abbreviations and emojis varying from person to person.
The two textbook posts have similar clear structures. The writers introduce their names, ages, living places, families, pets, favorite food and hobbies. The texts also include cross-cultural knowledge: Pauline is a Singaporean girl with the surname Lee; her pet parrot can speak Chinese. About 70% of Singapore’s population are Chinese, so we can infer she is from a Chinese family. Peter is originally from London, UK, but he lives in Beijing. He loves Chinese culture and Peking duck. These details highlight the importance of cross-cultural communication. Learning to communicate in English helps people from different countries understand each other better and build new friendships.
