Df course, teachers must between teaching the good and bad parts of a country’s history. Learning only the good parts can narrow thinking. Laarning the bad parts may help
those kinds of things happening again. Students who know their history and culture are mora lika|y to that their cultural heritage is protected, and teachers can motivate students by asking them to oome up with their own ideas and make proposals for ways to protect this. One possible idea is for students to raisa or moray an organisation or group that protects thelr cou tryl cultural heritage. Teachers may also

Teaching Design Analysis Book 2 Unit 1 Cultural Heritage
Period 6 Assessing Your Progress
Good afternoon, distinguished judges. It’s my great pleasure to be here to share with you some of my ideas of the teaching design of Book 2 Unit 1 Cultural Heritage, Period 6 – Assessing Your Progress. The presentation consists of the following four parts.
Part I Teaching philosophy
Firstly, I’d like to talk about my teaching philosophy. The whole design is based on my understanding of the new English curriculum standards for senior high schools. The new curriculum lays emphasis on students’ core competencies. In order to achieve it, the activity-based approach to English learning and the big ideas are also put forward in it. Accordingly, I designed a series of varied levels of activities to help students think, practice and then promote their core competencies, following the principle of Consistency between teaching, learning and assessing.
Part II General introduction
Next, I’ll introduce some general information.
Analysis of the teaching material
First, I’d like to introduce the unit as a whole.
Overall analysis of the whole unit
The teaching material is from Book 2 Unit 1 of People’s Education Press. The topic of this unit is cultural heritage with the theme of human and society. The content of this unit can be divided into three parts – a basic understanding of cultural heritage, the problems cultural heritage is facing and the protection and passing down of cultural heritage. The content of each period is presented in the form of listening, speaking, reading, writing and viewing. This lesson is Period 6 – assessing your progress, which reviews the whole unit and helps students put what they
learn into use and form the big ideas.
Analysis of this period
With the topic of cultural heritage, this period can be divided into three parts. Part 1 is language assessment, including reviewing the words and chunks and the grammar learnt in this unit. Part 2 is the self- reflection part. Part 3 involves a project.
As the last but two period in this unit, the focus of it has been switched to domestic and intangible cultural heritage.
Analysis of the students
This lesson is designed for Senior One students. They are curious, enthusiastic and creative. In former periods, they have learned about some famous cultural heritage at home and abroad and have a certain understanding of tangible cultural heritage but are not clear about intangible cultural heritage. So, they are encouraged to do some research before the class and share the stories behind intangible cultural heritage during the class.
Teaching objectives
Combining the analysis of teaching material and the analysis of students, the teaching objectives are set as follows.
By the end of this class, students are expected to be able to:
① review and practise the key words and chunks, relative pronouns and relative
adverbs learned in this unit.
② present stories about intangible cultural heritage
③ analyze the dilemma of intangible cultural heritage and reflect on how to protect it
Among these objectives, it is critical to direct students to review and practise the language and grammar. However, how to help students to present their stories and enlighten them to analyze and reflect remains a challenge.
Teaching methods
To achieve these objectives, task-based language teaching and communicative approach are applied. At the same time, students learn by autonomous learning and collaborative learning, using different interaction patterns.
Part III Teaching procedures
Preparations
Next, I’d like to introduce my teaching procedures.
As this class involves a presentation project, one week before the class, I showed the pictures to students to check how much they know about intangible cultural heritage. They had no difficulty in recognizing them and then formed 6 groups according to their own interest.
To better guide them, some questions were offered to them. Students were also reminded to tell the stories behind the intangible cultural heritage expressively using proper words and chunks and clearly written sentences and paragraphs. Some journals, books, websites, TV programs and model English stories were also recommended to them for their reference.
Assessing
During the class, the teaching procedures are arranged in the order of assessing, reflecting, presenting and summary. All the activities are directed by the level of reviewing, practising and innovating. Then I will follow the steps to show each section.
First, students read two short paragraphs and chose the proper words and chunks to fill in the blanks. The step is designed to provide situations for students to review and use the key words and chunks and thus develop their language competence. After finishing the exercise, students discussed in pairs about how to group these words and chunks. In this section, students can be more aware of the usage of the key words and chunks and the semantic field around the topic “cultural heritage” can be constructed.
As for the grammar assessing part, students were encouraged to translate some sentences using attributive clauses to describe people and
things in greater detail. This section also scaffolds students to polish their following presentations.
Reflecting
Just as a philosopher and educator John Dewey once said, we don’t learn from experiences; we learn from reflecting on them. In this period, it is necessary to remind students to reflect on their own progress and improvements. This part emphasizes on students’ self-monitoring on their own studying process, helping students to adjust their learning strategies to be more autonomous learners.
Presenting
The next presenting part is a comprehensive language using activity which is more open, practical and challenging, requiring students’ more time and energies. After one weeks’ preparation, they proved to be cooperative and really amazing.
Group 1 went to experience paper-cutting in person. They realized that paper-cutting can travel the time to express people’s wishes for auspiciousness and happiness. Group 2 shared the story of a kitemaker Yang Hongwei. They named the story “strings” because they thought the strings of kites represent the link between people. Group 3 performed a short play about writing spring couplets and proudly showed their calligraphy works. The group studying Guqin were drowned in the graceful music.
What’s more, the group studying opera chose Qunqu as their topic, which is among the first batch of intangible cultural heritage in China. They actively consulted a local Qunqu artist and learned the spoken parts of Peony Pavilion.
The last group focused on local intangible cultural heritage, and they were fascinated by the charm of Silk Carving(绫刻). They even shot a vlog to record their discovering process.
In all, students told six vivid stories which were informative and touching. After sharing, students from other groups graded the presentation based on accuracy, coherence and expressiveness. The section gives chances for students to present stories about intangible cultural heritage and develops their learning capacity and cultural
awareness.
Summary
In the summary part, to develop students’ thinking quality, I showed students more examples of intangible cultural heritage, and then students thought deeper about core spirit of it. They all agreed that it is the perseverance and the pursuing of perfection that is the core spirit of intangible cultural heritage, namely, craftsmanship spirit. They also discussed the problems and dilemmas that intangible cultural heritage is facing and tried to figure out some solutions. Students realized that to well protect, inherit and make good use of these precious treasures is our shared responsibility, for cultural heritage reminds us of who we are, where we come from and how far we have traveled.
Part IV Homework& blackboard design
homework
After class, students were required to sort out their idea and write a letter to consolidate what they have learned this class. They can choose one to finish based on their own ability levels.
Blackboard design
The blackboard design of this class was finished by students and me, consisting of semantic field, the titles of six stories and the key word craftsmanship spirit.
Part V Teaching reflection
features of design
To sum up, the whole class went smoothly with most teaching objectives achieved. All the activities are based on and aimed at the big idea. The class helps students pay more attention to our rich and splendid domestic and local culture. The whole class is student-centred and encourages students to work together to use English to tell Chinese stories. This class assesses students’ progress though their presenting, enhancing their core competencies especially learning capacity and cultural awareness, and thus implementing the essential aim of fostering virtue through education.
reflection
But when I reflected the whole class, it came to me that we can make better use of learning resources inside and outside the classroom to make it into a project learning combining more subjects, or a STEAM class. Another thing that this class taught me is that students cannot experience enough culture in one single lesson, we teachers should be the successors of traditional culture to better cultivate them.
But the most impressive part is students’ excellent performance. If you don’t give students chances and proper guidance, you’ll never know how talented and creative they can be. Just like if you don’t walk into the garden, you’ll never know how beautiful the spring is.
Last but not least, here are my references and acknowledgements. I want to thank those devoted artists for their inspiration. And I want to give my sincere thanks for your attention. Thank you very much for your listening!

If you don’t give students chances and proper guidance, you’ll never know how talented and creative they can be. Just like if you don’t walk into the garden, you’ll never know how beautiful the spring is. I want to give my acknowledgements for paper-cutting artist Han Xuemin, silk carving artist He Fu, Guqin and Qunqu artist Liu Hengwei. Students and I are all moved by their devotion and inspiration. As a teacher who has great impact on students, I will work hard to continue to inherit traditional Chinese culture and inspire my students carrying on their good work.
