Teaching
Steps
Step
1:
Lead-in
By
being
asked”
What
can
we
do
with
100/10/1
yuan?”,
students
can
be
aware
of
the
value
of
money.
From
100
yuan
to
1
yuan,
students
can
know
we
can
buy
a
few
things
with
so
little
money.
However,
I
have
bought
a
newspaper
with
1
yuan.
With
this
thing,
ask
students
to
think
another
question,
which
is
very
important
to
this
class
—
Are
newspapers
worth
buying?
Step
2:
Reading
Task1：Since
the
passage
is
short
and
easy,
I
don’t
choose
to
use
fast
reading
and
careful
reading
to
deal
with
the
text,
instead,
I
show
students
all
four
questions
about
this
text.
1.
Key
words
in
each
paragraph
2.
Two
types
of
newspapers
and
their
features
3.
Examples
of
the
two
kinds
of
newspapers
4.
A
feature
of
the
newspapers
in
the
US
Task2：
After
the
text
learning,
students
can
get
a
clear
outline
of
this
text.
I
picked
out
several
phrases
to
help
students
to
retell
this
passage.
Task3:
Till
now,
students
can
have
a
good
understanding
of
newspapers.
Ask
them
again,
“Are
newspapers
worth
buying?”
With
the
help
of
the
text
understanding
and
another
short
passage
in
Chinese,
students
can
easily
understand
the
value
of
newspapers,
which
is
an
important
part
of
this
class.
“To
buy,
or
not
to
buy?--That
is
no
question!”。
Step
3:
Post-reading
Part1：Since
newspapers
are
worth
buying,
I
tries
to
buy
it
one
day.
However,
the
scenes
I
saw
surprised
me.
By
sharing
my
embarrassed
experience,
ask
students
to
think
why
it
is
hard
to
buy
newspapers
and
what
challenges
are
newspapers
facing.
Part2：Newspapers
are
facing
many
challenges.
One
day,
I
saw
a
piece
of
news
in
the
newspaper.
Someone
says
with
the
challenges
of
newspapers,
they
will
disappear
one
day.
Ask
students
to
express
their
idea
after
the
discussion.
