Ⅲ. Teaching Methods Situational Teaching Method: Play videos and showcase pictures of Tian'anmen Square to fabricate vivid teaching scenarios, allowing students to feel as if they were on the spot, stimulating their learning interests and leading to the teaching content.

Game and Competition Method: Organize word spelling competitions and group question and answer contests to augment the enjoyment of learning, enliven the classroom atmosphere and reinforce students' memory of knowledge. Heuristic Teaching Method: In the course of knowledge explanation and problem deliberation, pose questions and offer guidance to inspire students to think and cultivate their thinking qualities. For instance, when analyzing the text structure, prompt students to identify the topic sentences of paragraphs. Ⅳ. Teaching Procedures (Ⅰ) Lead-in (3 minutes) Play a high-definition video of Tian'anmen Square, covering the overall view of the square, the flag-raising ceremony, tourists' visits and other scenes. The video is accompanied by English commentary, briefly introducing the status of Tian'anmen Square. After playing, ask: “Boys and girls, after watching this wonderful video, what impressed you most about Tian'anmen Square And do you want to know more about it in English ” Guide students to share their feelings in simple English to stimulate their learning enthusiasm and smoothly introduce the new lesson. (Ⅱ) New Knowledge Teaching Word Teaching (5 minutes) Use PPT to display key words. Lead students to read each word aloud in combination with phonetic symbols and correct pronunciation errors. Pay special attention to the stress and syllable division of words like “preparing”. Explain the meanings and parts of speech of words and give examples to illustrate their usages. For example, “preparing” is the present participle form of the verb “prepare” and is often used in the structure “be preparing for”, which means “be preparing for...”. For example: “We are preparing for the coming exam.” Conduct a word spelling competition game. The teacher reads the words, and students quickly write them down on their exercise books. Then, deskmates exchange and correct each other's work. Select the spelling star to strengthen memory. Text Teaching (12 minutes) Play the text recording. For the first time, students listen and complete simple filling tasks, such as “People in the text are ______ (preparing) to visit Tian'anmen Square. They need to take ______ (camera) and ______ (map).” to cultivate the ability to capture key information in listening. For the second time, students listen and read sentence by sentence, imitating the pronunciation and intonation. The teacher pauses appropriately to explain the structures of long and difficult sentences and the usages of vocabulary. For example, in the sentence “This is the first time for them to come here.”, explain the sentence pattern “it/this is the first time + to do sth.”. Guide students to analyze the paragraph structure of the text, divide it into parts, summarize the main ideas, find out the core sentences describing the scenic spots of the square and people's activities, sort out the knowledge framework, and ask students to answer questions to check their understanding. (Ⅲ) Classroom Practice Basic Consolidation Practice (8 minutes) Show the word spelling and phrase translation exercises in the textbook. Students complete them independently. The teacher patrols and guides, reminding them of writing 规范. Use multimedia to display 5 - 6 multiple-choice questions, focusing on testing the key words, phrases, sentence patterns and tense usages of this lesson. For example: “—Look! The boys ______ basketball on the playground. —Yeah. They ______ every Saturday afternoon.” The options involve different tense forms. Ask students to choose the correct answers and explain the reasons to strengthen knowledge application. Give several simple sentences and ask students to transform the sentence patterns, such as changing a sentence in the simple present tense to the present continuous tense to consolidate the understanding of the tense structure. Ability Enhancement Practice (7 minutes) Distribute a short reading material about travel tips for Tian'anmen Square. After reading, students answer 3 - 4 reading comprehension questions, covering question types such as detail understanding and inference judgment to cultivate reading skills and thinking abilities. Assign a writing task: “Suppose you are going to visit a famous place near your city tomorrow. Write a short passage about your preparations, using the present continuous tense. (At least 50 words)” Students write, and the teacher selects 1 - 2 pieces to display and comment on, guiding the writing ideas and language optimization. (Ⅳ) Group Activity (5 minutes) Divide students into groups of 4 - 5 and assign the task: “Design a one-day travel plan for visiting Tian'anmen Square”. Clearly require that it should cover transportation, the order of visiting scenic spots, catering arrangements, item preparations, etc., and be presented in English. Each group divides the work and cooperates, consults materials and discusses. The teacher patrols each group and provides necessary help. Encourage students to use the learned knowledge to solve problems, such as using sentence patterns for asking the way and recommending scenic spots. Each group selects a representative to come to the stage and present the travel plan in English to the whole class. Other groups listen, ask questions and give suggestions. The teacher summarizes and evaluates, and selects the best travel plan group and gives rewards. (Ⅴ) Classroom Summary (3 minutes) Guide students to review the key words, phrases, sentence patterns and grammar knowledge of this lesson together. The teacher draws a simple mind map on the blackboard to sort out the knowledge context and strengthen memory. Ask students: “What have you learned from this class And what difficulties do you still have ” Encourage students to share their gains and doubts, and the teacher answers them pertinently to pave the way for subsequent learning. (Ⅵ) Homework Assignment (2 minutes) Complete the exercises related to this section in the supporting workbook to consolidate knowledge. Require careful writing and parents' signatures. Write an English short passage titled “My Unforgettable Trip to...” to describe an unforgettable travel experience. Use at least 5 words or phrases learned in this lesson, and use tenses accurately. The passage should be no less than 80 words and will be shared in the next class. Suggest that students watch English travel documentaries after class and pay attention to travel English expressions to expand their knowledge. Ⅴ. Teaching Reflection After class, the teacher needs to seriously reflect on the teaching process: Achievement of Teaching Objectives: Review students' classroom performances in terms of knowledge mastery, ability improvement, cultural understanding and thinking development to judge whether each objective has been achieved. For example, whether students can use the present continuous tense flexibly and whether they have a deep understanding of the culture of Tian'anmen Square. Effectiveness of Teaching Methods: Consider whether situational teaching, task-based teaching and other methods have stimulated students' interests and promoted knowledge absorption. Which links have high student participation and good effects, and which need improvement. Student Feedback: Pay attention to the problems reflected by students' classroom questions, group activity performances and homework completion situations. Summarize students' learning difficulties so as to adjust subsequent teaching strategies, optimize teaching design and improve teaching quality.
