1、Period 2Learning about LanguageThe General Idea of This PeriodIn this period the students are to do some exercises on the useful words,expressions and structures learned in the reading part.It is to help them use the useful words and expressions from the context.They are also to learn something abou
2、t word formation,which will help them to remember English words so that they will enlarge their vocabulary.To achieve the above aims,the teacher can help the students to learn autonomously and cooperatively.That is,the teacher will get the students to work on the exercises individually first and the
3、n check the answers together with their partners.While dealing with word formation,the teacher will help the students do it as a task.That is,the teacher will first ask the students to read some words and sentences from the text in which some compound words,derivatives are used,then ask them to disc
4、over how these words are formed,summarize the rules and write as many words as possible according the rules in groups.Teaching Important and Difficult Points How to grasp and apply the knowledge of word formation to enlarge vocabulary.How to gain the ability to use the key words and expressions from

7、tion.Meanwhile,their ability of autonomous learning will be improved to a certain extent.Teaching ProceduresStep 1 RevisionT:In the last period,we studied a passage about different theme parks in the world.And I asked you to write a summary using the key words.Now please look at the screen and read
8、out your summary of the passage with the key words individually.Im sure all of you can do it well.Summary:Parks provide people with a place to amuse themselves and to escape their busy life for a while.In recent decades,however,many parks have been designed to provide entertainment.We call them them
9、e parks.The new parks are usually huge places and have a variety of things to see and do.Theme parks have a certain ideaa certain themethat the whole park is based on.For example,a sport theme park will offer visitors sports to play or watch;a history or culture theme park will let us see how our an
10、cestors dressed,worked and lived.The oldest theme park in the world is Disneyland. It seemed like a place of fantasy. Besides these,we have the marine or ocean parks,the science theme parks and so on to let us enjoy totally different experience from the real world.Step 2 Discovering useful words and
11、 expressionsT:From the reading passage,we can find some useful words and expressions.So now Id like you to do Ex.1 and Ex.2 on Page 35,Ex.3 and Ex.4 on Page 36 individually first and then check your answers with your partners to see if you can use them in the given context.Suggested answers:Exercise

15、closer every year to becoming the leader of his company.Step 3 Discovering useful structures T:Boys and girls,have you finished checking your answers?If so,lets come to the next partDiscovering useful structures.First read the following sentences from the reading passage,pay attention to the underli
16、ned words and see what you can find from these words.Of course you can have a discussion.1.They are more than amusement parks with rides,such as a Ferris wheel,merry-go-round or a roller coaster.2.They all charge money for admission.The big companies that own theme parks expect to make a profit not
17、just by the charges for admission,but also by selling souvenirs in their shops and advertising them on television.3.So basketball and football may be sold along with sneakers and special sports clothing.S:Let me try.From these words,we can see that some words are made up of two words or more;some wo
18、rds can not only be used as verbs,but also as nouns,and some words are formed by adding prefix or suffix.T:You really have good observation!As you can see two words or more can make up one word and some are words joined by a hyphen or two,we call these words compound words.Some words can be used bot
19、h as verbs and nouns.This is another way how words are used,we call it conversion.If some words are formed by adding prefix or suffix,we call this method derivation.We have learned many compound words,derivatives and those words which can be used as different parts of speech.Grasping these will help
20、 you remember words easily and enlarge your vocabulary.So now Id like you to work in ten groups to recall and write as many such words as possible according to the examples.You can refer to word formation on Page 92.(The teacher hands out sheets to each group)Task for group 1Examples of compound wor

27、certain word is formed.For example,you can put prefix “in-” before the word “correct” to form the new word “incorrect” with the opposite meaning,while you should put prefix “im-” before the word “possible” to form the new word “impossible” with the opposite meaning.Step 4 HomeworkT:In this period we
28、 have learned how to use the key words and expressions in the given context by doing some exercises,and we have learned much about word formation,which will help us a lot in memorizing new words and enlarging our vocabulary.You are really working hard today.Now homework for you today.1.Do Exercises

45、的名词可以作动词,有的形容词可作副词或动词,这种把一种词性用作另一种词性而词形不变的方法叫转化法。1.动词转化为名词很多动词可以转化为名词,大多意思没有多大的变化;有时意思有一定变化;有的与一个动词和不定冠词构成短语,表示一个动作。如:Lets go out for a walk.He is a man of strong build.Lets have a swim.Theme parks charge(v.) money for admission.Theme parks expect to make a profit by the charges(n.) for admission.2.
46、名词转化为动词很多表示物件、身体部位、某类人的名词可以用作动词来表示动作,某些抽象名词也可以作动词。如:Did you book a seat on the plane?Please hand me the dictionary.She nursed her husband back to health.We lunched together yesterday.3.形容词转化为动词有少数形容词可以转化为动词。如:We will try our best to better our living conditions.She cleans her room every day.4.副词转化为动词有少数形容词可以转化为动词。如:Murder will out.(谚语)恶事终将败露。The army downed a plane.
