Unit 5 Look into the future
Lesson 2 (In Focus)
I. Teaching Aims
1. To understand and use the structure “will + verb” to talk about what robots will do in the future.
1. To read the passage about Happy Home Henry, Great Grace and Fun Frank and fill in the blanks with correct verb forms.
1. To work in pairs to draw and describe their own robot using “will”.
II. Key and Difficult Points
Key points:
· The structure: What will it do for people? It will help people a lot. — Will it play with us? — Yes, it will. / No, it won’t.
· Vocabulary: help, cook, walk, take, fly, go, talk, play, robot, chore, medicine
Difficult points:
· Using “will + base verb” correctly in reading and writing tasks.
· Distinguishing between affirmative (It will…) and negative (It won’t…) forms.
III. Teaching Tools
Textbook, courseware, robot pictures, word cards, worksheet, audio
IV. Teaching Procedures
Step 1 Warm-up (5 mins)
· Greet the class.
· Review: Show robot pictures and ask “What will it do?” Students answer using “It will…”.
· Play a short chant about robots from Lesson 1.
[Purpose: To activate students’ prior knowledge about “will” and get them interested in the topic.]
Step 2 Presentation (10 mins)
· Write on the board: “What will it do for people? It will help people a lot.”
· Ask: “Will it play with us?” Elicit: “Yes, it will. / No, it won’t.”
· Drill the sentences. Have students repeat after the teacher.
· Write the key structure on the board:
· Will it…? → Yes, it will. / No, it won’t. It will + verb…
[Purpose: To present the target language clearly and give students choral and individual practice.]
Step 3 Read and write (15 mins)
· Hand out the worksheet with three passages: Happy Home Henry, Great Grace, Fun Frank.
· Read the first passage together. Underline the verbs. Fill in blanks 1-5 together.
· Students work alone to fill in blanks 6-9 (Great Grace). Check answers as a class.
· Students fill in blanks 10-12 (Fun Frank). Pair check, then class check.
· Answers: 1. will help 2. will cook 3. will walk 4. Will 5. take 6. will help 7. will fly 8. will 9. go 10. will like 11. will talk 12. will play
[Purpose: To practice “will + verb” in a reading context and develop reading-writing skills.]
Step 4 Work in pairs (8 mins)
· Activity: Draw and write. “What will your robot do?”
· Each pair draws a robot and writes 3-4 sentences about what it will do.
· Example: “This is my robot. It will clean my room. It will cook dinner. It will play with me.”
· Some pairs share their robots with the class.
[Purpose: To give students speaking practice using the target structure in a creative task.]
Step 5 Summary and homework (2 mins)
· Review the key structure on the board.
· Homework: Write 5 sentences about your robot using “will”. Bring the drawing next class.
[Purpose: To consolidate the lesson content and extend practice at home.]
V. Blackboard Design
Unit 5 Look into the future (Lesson 2)
What will it do for people? Robots:
It will help people a lot. Happy Home Henry — clean / cook / walk
Great Grace — help / fly / go
— Will it play with us?
— Yes, it will. / No, it won't. Fun Frank — talk / play / make happy
will + verb (base form)
六、教学反思
这节课整体进度还行,但后进生对 will 加动词原形的形式掌握不够扎实,Read and write 环节有几个学生填空时忘了加 will。下次可以在呈现环节多带读几遍,增加机械操练时间。另外 Work in pairs 画画写写的活动学生兴趣高,但部分学生光顾着画画忘了写句子,下次要强调先画完再写,并给后进生提供句型卡片作为支架。
