III. Focus of the lesson and predicted area of difficulty

1. Understand the organization and the outline of the report.

2. Develop some English writing skills such as: how to develop a paragraph, how to use transitions in writing, etc.

IV. Teaching procedures

Step 1 Lead-in  

T: Boys and girls, do you like reading? What kinds of books do you like?

T: In my free time, I like reading these books. What are they in Chinese?

 Yes, they are called the four great classical Chinese novels.

【设计意图：通过师生交谈，自然地导入新课和写作话题。通过图片学习生词：classical。】

Step 2 Outline of the writing

1. Prediction

T: Today, we are going to write something about our reading habits. What would you like to write about your reading habits?

T: Yes, we can write something like these.

【设计意图：以思维导图的形式呈现文章主要内容框架，为后续写作搭好支架。】

2. Outline

T: Now, let’s read Millie’s article first and then help her answer some questions.

T: And here is the outline of Millie’s writing. Can you help her fill in the blanks?

【设计意图：首次阅读教材范文，通过完成调查问卷和文章框架结构表格任务，检测学生对文章的理解程度，以明确文章写作框架结构。】

Step 3 Writing skills

1. How to develop a paragraph

T: Let’s read Paragraph 1 and discuss how to develop a paragraph when we are writing.

T: Can you find the topic sentence in this paragraph? Yes. It is the main idea.

T: What about these ones? We call them major details because they help the readers to understand the main idea.

T: And, they are minor details——much smaller details to support the major details.

T: So, someone says a paragraph is just like a bamboo. Look at this picture!

The main idea is the bamboo’s trunk, and major details are like its sticks, the minor details     are small sticks and leaves. We put them all together to make a paragraph.

T: Let us do some practice.

【设计意图：本环节学习了写作技巧一——段落的写作。竹子形象地阐释了英语写作中的段落构成，即所有的细枝和树叶（details）仅仅围绕main idea这个主干进行生长。】

2. How to use transitions

T: Can you find a transition among these sentences? (but)

T: Can you help Millie add a suitable transition before the four great classical Chinese novels? (For example,)

T: If the readers want to know why Millie likes these novels best, which transition can she use to continue her writing? (because)

T: Can you use the useful writing structures to rewrite a short paragraph for Sandy?

    Here is Daniel’s writing. You can rewrite something like this.

【设计意图：Transition教学是本单元Study skills的重要内容，也是整个中学阶段写作教学最为重要的内容之一。Rewriting素材来源于本单元Welcome to the unit部分的简短对话，素材既与单元主题相关，又可以使用合适的过渡词进行重写，对学生的写作能力的提高会有促进作用。】

3. How to mix Chinese culture in English writing

T: Next, let’s discuss how to mix Chinese culture in English writing. Here are some writing tips for you. I think the first two tips are easy to understand.

    Let’s talk about the third one.

T: We can take Daniel’s writing for an example.

    In this way, we talk about some serious events about China and Chinese.

【设计意图：本环节教学生在英语写作中融合中国文化，继续使用了上一环节中的Daniel的习作，使得教材素材利用最大化。】

4. How to write related details

T: Let’s come to Paragraph 2.

T: Look at this sentence. What is the function of “—” in this sentence?

    Can we use some transitional words to replace “—”, and how?

T: Good. That’s to say, “it is just opposite my home” is a related detail to the first sentence because it explains why Millie gets most of her books from Sunshine Library. It’s convenient.

T: Let’s do some practice.

【设计意图：本环节进行了相关有效细节写作教学。很多学生在细节写作时，写的句子与文章主旨无关或无效，本环节的写作教学设计能有效训练学生的写作思维。】

5. How to brainstorm in English writing

T: What do Millie and her friends do in the library?

T: What else may they do?

T: Yes, there are some other interesting things they may do in Sunshine Library. All these things can be written in our writing.

T: Let’s do some exercises.

【设计意图：本环节训练了英语写作中的发散思维，同时很好地利用了教材的各种素材，Black Beauty选材于本单元的Grammar环节。】

6. How to highlight the ending

T: A good ending is always important for an article. Let’s discuss how to highlight the ending of our writing.

T: First, we can use some famous English sayings to make the ending shout. For example, “Reading makes a full man,” Francis Bacon said. We can use it like this.

T: Here are some other sayings about reading or books. They may be helpful for your writing.

T: Another suggestion is that: talk about how reading really makes a great difference to your

own life, especially your future.

T: Here is a good example.

T: Now, it’s your turn. You can use this useful structure for ending to have a practice. You can write about any book you like.

【设计意图：本环节教授如何在结尾段展现亮点。English saying是本册书第五单元的重要内容，在英语写作中适当使用可以使文章增色。本环节还使用了本单元Study skills的一个语篇作为素材。】

Step 4 Writing practice

T: Now, it’s time for your writing.

T: When you are writing, you should pay attention to the structure and the writing skills we’ve talked about.

【设计意图：学生独立写作，以检测他们的写作水平是否真的有所提升。】

V. Homework

Share your writing with one of your friends and revise for each other.
