三、教学过程设计
Step 1 Warming-up --- Enjoy pics about different animals (Before Class)
Aim: Recall students’ memory of animals and motivate their emotions
Step 2 Lead-in ---Elephant
From Ss’s favorite animals and why to T’s favorite animal and why (Guess via sound).
Aim: from Ss’s experience about animals to The T’s, it’s more natural
Step 3 Before-reading

具体思维导图详见worksheet
1. Importance 2. What can they do?
3. Why are they in danger 4. How to save them?
Aim: By using the four-leaf clover mind map, it can help Ss understand the structure and the content of the article clearly, which is much easier to absorb a difficult article like this. Besides, it has some meaning to the four-leaf clover which stands for “Good Luck”. It’s fun.
(4) Listen and read

Aim: Grasp the article overally. It’s a challenge for Ss which reveals different levels
Step 4 Post-reading --- Writing
From the symbol of Thailand to the symbol of China—Pandas, we can use the same way to write an article by the four-leaf clover mind map. It aspects four parts, too. T help Ss demonstrate the article through the four-leaf clover mind map first. Then ask Ss to imitate the article to create their own articles.

Let’s save them together!!!
Step 6 Homework
Level 1 : Retell the article(文章)according to the four-leaf clover(根据四叶草) ;
Level 2 : Writing ‘Let’s save the pandas’.
设计意图： 作业是课堂的延续。课堂上每位学生只写了一段，而且在评价修改他人的文章时，又有所收获。趁热打铁，将完成整篇文章布置成作业，学生容易做，也乐意做。选做作业既考虑了学生的差异性，对一个集体中的学生进行分层教学；又能激发那些有兴趣的学生，让其使用所学的目标语言和阅读策略，从而提高综合运用语言的能力；再者，阅读关于动物保护之类的文章，从一定程度上也能进一步增强其保护动物的意识，使课堂情感教育延伸至课堂之外。
