Key and Difficult Points:

Key point

Ss can extract the "Challenge-Goal-Method-Result" structure from the diary and master the key vocabulary and phrases.

 

Difficult point

Ss can use the target sentence patterns (e.g., "In the past, I always felt...", "Instead of...", "Another method is to...") to write a coherent diary entry about overcoming a personal memory challenge.

 

Teaching Procedures:

 

Step 1. Lead-in & Vocabulary Review

1). Activity 2a: Guide Ss to use affixes (prefixes/suffixes) to create new words.

2). Activity 2b: Ask Ss to complete the sentences using the correct forms of the words from the word cloud (react, position, effective, case, likely, recall).

3). Activity 2c: Let Ss complete the passage about animal memory using the phrases in the box (go through, run out, happen to, keep in mind). Check answers and discuss which animal impressed them most.

4). Purpose: To review and consolidate key vocabulary from the unit and activate students' background knowledge.

 

Step 2. Pre-reading

1). Ask Ss to think about memory challenges they have faced in their study or life.

2). Show the prompts on the PPT (e.g., memorizing English words, giving a speech, reciting an English text) and invite Ss to share their experiences and methods.

3). Introduce Billy's story: Today we will read a diary entry about how Billy overcame his challenge of giving a speech.

4). Purpose: To connect to students' real-life experiences and arouse their interest in reading.

 

Step 3. While-reading (Activity 3a)

1). Fast reading (Skimming): Ask Ss to read Billy's diary and find out the key information based on the diary structure:

   - Date: Friday, 20 November.

   - Type: Diary entry (应用文/日记).
