Look at the photo, he is a 15-year-old boy from the countryside.His parents are working in the city.There are many children like Li Wen in the countryside.They are called stay-at-home children. Do you know stay-at-home children let’s watch a video about them. Then guess “What kind of problems might Li Wei have ”
(不必针对学生的猜测判断对错,旨在让学生掌握根据标题和插图来预测文章内容的能力,引导他们带着问题去阅读下面的文章)
Step 2 Fast reading
1.Skim the article on page 30. Then match the paragraphs with their main ideas.
1.Li Wen’s unhappiness began to influence his school work. Para.12.They had a long talk and Li Wen understood his parents . Para.23.Li Wen’s background. Para.34. Li Wen has really changed. Para.4
(目的在于让学生快速地浏览课文,把握每一段的中心意思,为下一步“把缺失的句子放入正确的位置”降低了难度。)
2.Read the passage carefully and put the sentences [A-D] in the correct places.
A. They had a long talk
B. Now Li Wen has really changed
C. However, things began to change a few years ago
D. His teacher was worried about him
(给予学生方法上的指导,例如,Paragraph 1: C 由上文“当他小时候,他很少惹麻烦,他的家人和他在一起生活”,以及下文“他的父母搬到城市里去找工作,他很想念他们而且觉得很孤独和不开心”,可知李文的生活发生的变化,故应选C。)
Step 3 Careful Reading
1.Read Para. 1 and answer :
1)Where is Li Wen from
2)How did he feel when his parents moved to the city
Then according to the answers, talk about Li Wen’s background.
2.Read Para. 2
1)Reading strategy:
Tell Ss that they have to use the clues from the passage to help them guess the meanings of the words in the paragraph. Make sure Ss know how to do it.
(这一步一方面要培养学生在阅读中学会猜测词意的能力,另一方面为理解第二段扫清了语言上的障碍。)
2)Underline Li Wen’s problems.
3. Read Para. 3 and answer:
1)How did his parents deal with his problems
2)What do you think Li Wen and his parents talked about in their conversation Write a conversation and role-play it with your group.
