教学环节
Step 1 Warm-up & Lead-in1. Brainstorming: Show an emoji of a worried face. Ask: “What problems do teenagers usually have ” (e.g., grades, friends, parents, money).2. Quote Discussion: Present the sentence: “If you keep a problem to yourself, you are carrying a heavy stone.” Ask students what they think it means.3. Prediction: Look at the title “Students These Days!” and the pictures in 3a. Predict: What are the students’ problems Who will help them Step 2 While-reading (Task 1: Skimming for Main Idea)1. Fast Reading: Read the passage quickly (3 mins) and match the main idea with each paragraph:- Para 1: General introduction – Everyone has problems; talking helps.- Para 2: Laura’s story – Lost wallet and parents’ reaction.- Para 3: Robert’s story – Video games and advice from a teacher.- Para 4: Conclusion – Steps to solve problems.2. Check: Confirm predictions made in Step 1. Identify the structure: General Statement -> Examples -> Advice. Step 3 While-reading (Task 2: Scanning for Details)1. Case Study - Laura (3b): Read Para 2 carefully and complete the table:- Problem: Lost her wallet (money was gone).- Feeling: Afraid to tell parents, worried every day.- Action: Finally told parents.- Result: Parents were understanding, bought a new wallet, advised her to be careful.2. Case Study - Robert (3c): Read Para 3 and answer:- What was Robert’s problem (Played too many video games, failed exams).- Who did he talk to (His teacher).- What advice did the teacher give (Stop playing games, focus on studies).- Did it work (Yes, he improved).3. Vocabulary in Context: Guess the meaning of “normal”, “trust”, “experience” based on the sentences. Explain the metaphor: “Sharing a problem is like cutting it in half.” Step 4 Post-reading (Task 3: Deep Thinking & Application)1. Discussion (3d): Work in groups to discuss:- “Why was Laura afraid to tell her parents at first Was she right ”- “Who is the best person to talk to when you have a problem Why ” (Parents, teachers, friends, or strangers )2. Role-play Counseling: One student is a “Troubled Teen” (with a made-up problem), the other is a “School Counselor”. Use the structure:- Teen: “I have a problem...”- Counselor: “It’s normal. You should... / Why don’t you... ”3. Advice Letter: Write a short reply (3-4 sentences) to either Laura or Robert, offering encouragement or additional advice. Step 5 Summary & Emotional Sublimation1. Mind Map: Summarize the passage structure: Problems exist -> Don’t hide -> Talk to someone -> Get advice -> Solve it.2. Value Sharing: Emphasize that “You are not alone.” Trusting others is a sign of maturity, not weakness.3. Class Slogan: Create a slogan for the class wall: “Share your worry, cut it in half!” or “Talk it out, feel better!”
