六、教学过程

Teaching steps:

Step1.  Warm-up 

1. Ss listen to an English song AULD LANG SYNE.

    2. Brainstorming: let Ss say qualities of a good friend – honest, friendly, brave, humorous, funny, wise, kind, open-minded, responsible, helpful….

I think a friend should be kind.

 

 

 

 

A good friend is someone who makes me happy.

 

 

 

 

设计意图：由学生比较熟悉的歌曲：友谊地久天长引入，让学生谈谈他们心中的朋友应该具有的品质。

Step 2.  Talk about your old friends 

1. Ss talk about their old friends in Junior Middle School, talk about their appearance, personality, hobbies, etc.

2. Self-introduction

3. Groupwork: What should a good friend do?

I think good friends should trust each other.

A good friend should help the one who needs help.

设计意图：引导学生回忆并描述其初中的好朋友，从而引发学生思考作为好朋友应具备的行为品性。

 

Step 3. Make new friends

1. Ss go around and ask their new friends some information and fill in the following form:

Name	Age/hobbies/favorite sports, books, …

2. Report to the class: who will probably be your friend and why.

设计意图：组织学生在班级内寻找新的朋友，以锻炼学生彼此交流的英语沟通能力，加强学生之间的了解。

 

Step 4. Do a survey

      Ss do the survey in the text, p1:  

No.	Score	A	B	C
1	?	1	3	2
2		1	2	3
3		1	2	3
4		3	2	1
5		0	6	0

 

4-7 points: You are not a good friend. You either neglect your friends’ needs or just do what he/she wants you to do. You should think about what a good friend needs to do. Think more about this.

 

8-12 points: You are a good friend but you sometimes let your friendship become too important, or you fail to show enough concern for your friend’s needs and feelings. Try to strike a balance between your friend’s needs and your won responsibilities.

 

13+ points: You are an excellent friend who recognizes that to be a good friend you need to balance your needs and your friend’s needs. Well done!

设计意图：通过设计完成调查表，让学生懂得一个好朋友的标准及对待朋友的态度，如朋友之间应当相互关心，体谅对方等。

 

Sep 5. Listening and talking

      Do Wb P41 (Talking). While Ss listen to the material, ask them to take notes about the speaker’s views of making friends.

When Ss make their conversation, ask them to try to use the following expressions.

I think so. / I don’t think so.        I agree. / I don’t agree.

That’s correct.   Of course not.   Exactly.   I’m afraid not.

设计意图：以听力的方式，使学生就“朋友”这一话题进一步展开；此外，要求学生模仿听力材料，编写自己的对话，并要求学生在对话中运用规定句型，从而引入语言点的教学。

 

Step 6. Discussion

Divide Ss four in one group and each group choose a topic to discuss.

Topic 1: Why do you need friends? Make a list of reasons why friends are important to you.

 

Why do you need  friends?

To calm me down when I am upset..

To help me with my homework.

 

 

 

 

 

To share happiness and sadness with me.

To be my good company.

 

 

 

Topic 2: What is a true friendship?

 

Friendship is a world-wide feeling that everyone shares. Friendship means having a person you share your feelings with, a person you look up to, or someone you can look to for comfort.

 

Topic 3: There is a saying “to have a good friend, you need to be a good friend.” What do you think of the saying and how can you be a good friend?

Tips on Being a Friend

      Treat your friends the way you want to be treated.

 Keep secrets that are told to you.

 Pay attention when your friend is talking.

 Keep your promises.

     Share things with your friend.

    Tell your friend the truth.

Stick up for your friend.(support and defend by words or actions)

irresponsible

Topic 5: List some qualities of a person who does not make friend easily.

 

unfriendly

dishonest

selfish

unhelpful

 

 

 

 

 

设计意图：设计五个讨论话题，将学生分组令其就其中一个话题展开讨论。在讨论过程中给学生提供一些线索以帮助学生思考深入。五个小组的讨论结果结合在一起，即成为一个关于“朋友”的整体活动意见。

 

Step 7. Summary

1. Ask Ss themselves to summarize what is friendship and what is the most important in making friends.

3. Play the video: Friendship.

Tell Ss: make new friends and keep the old; one is silver and the other is gold.
