Part 5. ?Teaching Procedure
Step 1：lead-in (the basic usages of “it”)

Summary 1: It can be used as personal pronouns （人称代词）,as well as impersonal pronouns （非人称代词） referring to the person without knowing its gender, animal, time, date, distance, weather or other surroundings .
Step 2:.Fill the blanks, one minute for you all!

____ was a cloudy day. we decided to drive to the northeast of China, though __ was too far away from here and ___ is believed that it is one of the coldest parts in
China. During the journey, __was marvelous to see the heaven lake and we found __ funny that a pig was welcoming us in the way of dancing. Finally , I want to say, the splendid scenery made __worthwhile to pay a visit there.
Let’s read the short passage together.
Step 3: formal subject and formal object.
According to the diary , can you tell me what are the functions of “it”? (Especially based on the three sentences)
Activity1:
It is believed that it is one of the coldest parts in China.

Why do we sometimes use “of sb”, and sometimes use “for sb”?
Discuss in groups , then show me your answer, and you can also sort out some words that are appropriately used in the proper situation. …
Now time is up, show me your idea…
All of you have done a good job, so here are some of the words, I give you 2minutes to try to remember them as many as possible , then make up your own sentences by using the words:
bad ， brave, careless, clever, cruel ， foolish ,honest ， horrible ， kind ， lazy ， modest , naughty, nice（有教养的), polite， rude, silly, stupid, wise, wrong（错误的）etc。

Step4. Competition
Now everybody, you have done so many exercises, can you summarize the basic structure of it acting as formal subject and formal object. Discuss with your group members, then tell me your conclusion. Do you want to listen to another student’s summary in the video?
So I hope you can master the sentence structure well.
So much for grammar learning, let’s have a competition .
Rules: we have four sheep in different colors, you can choose your favorite one. Behind each sheep are questions prepared for your group, so you can have two minutes to discuss about its answer, then show us.
Are you ready? group one which one do you choose?......
Step 5 Now, our journey has finished, let’s go back home…
Unfortunely! We came across an accident . prepare a dialogue with your partner. One student acts as a policeman or policewoman, the other will be the witness, later you’ll be asked to present your dialogue.
The following is the sample dialogue:
P: What was the weather like on the day of the accident ?
E: It was beginning to snow heavily and the ground was slippery（滑的）.
P: How far could you see?
E: It was impossible to see more than twenty yards ahead of you, so all the cars were travelling very slowly.
P: What about Mr Li’s car? Was it travelling slowly too?
T: You can set about designing your dialogue from “ what was the date that day; what was the weather like ;how about the road situation…
While making up your dialogue, use “it” as much as possible.
Presentation is on.
Step 6: Homework:
You can find other usages of “it” on the paper, so after class, learn about their meanings, remember them and make up sentences.
Part6， Blackboard design:
For the blackboard notes, on the left are summaries of “it”, and on the right are the scores earned by each group. That’s all for my interpretation, thank you for your attentions.
