Thank you for your help.Ask students：What are parts of speech of “help” in these sentences are?1 “Help” in this sentence is used as a verb.2 In the second sentence “help” is used as a noun.In this period, we will learn some words, which have several parts of speech. Now look at the short dialogue. In the passage “Fog”, we learned a story about a blind mans helping others in a foggy day. Polly is telling others about her experience.Look at the picture and pay attention to the conversation. P6 CONVERSATIONWho can find the word which has two parts of speech in these dialogues?“Rest” has two parts of speech. In “the rest of the way”, rest is a noun. In “come in and rest”, rest is a verb.Like “rest” in the dialogue, many words in English have more than one part of speech. In some cases, different parts of speech (usually a noun and a verb) have the same spelling but different meanings.Step 2: Grammar focusAs a matter of fact, we have learned so many words like “rest” which has more than one part of speech. Traditional grammar classifies words based on ten parts of speech: the verb, the noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction,the numeral, the article and the interjection. Each part of speech explains not what the word is, but how the word is used. In fact, the same word can be a noun in one sentence and a verb or adjective in the next. The following examples show how a words part of speech can change from one sentence to the next.Books are useful. n.Dick waited patiently while Bridget was booking the ticket. v.We walk down the street. v.The mail carrier stood on the walk. n.Now. Ill give you five minutes to discuss with your partner and try to find more examples.

The students will be able to recognize words related to electrical and electronic goods;2. The students will be able to use these words to complete a short passage；a) The students will be able to get familiar with some new words of the reading passage;3. The students will be able to know some effective ways to learn vocabulary.Teaching procedures:Step 1 Lead-in1. The teacher leads the students to the topic of this unit by asking: what topic do you think we are going to talk about from the title of this unit and the pictures on Page1? (electronic and electrical goods)2. The teacher leads the students to words related to electronic and electrical goods by asking: what electronic goods and electrical appliances do you have at home? (electronic goods: electronic dictionaries, digital cameras, video cameras, CD players, MP3 players, mobile phones, computers, etc. electrical appliances: microwave ovens, refrigerators, TV sets, air conditioners, washing machines, dishwasher, kitchen ventilator, vacuum cleaner, etc.)Explanation从学生的生活体验出发，自然地引入本板块需要教授的一部分词汇，用看图匹配的形式让学生初步熟悉这些家用电器的英文名称。如果因为这些物品很常用，学生早已熟知，可请学生谈谈它们对其生活的影响。Step 2 Word study1. Part A: Read the passage on Page6 and ask: what are the two sections on the 3rd floor? What can be bought in the electronic goods section?2. Part B: match the electrical appliances with the pictures in Part B.Explanation利用本板块提供的语篇材料，设计一些问题，学生需要用这些家用电器的英文名称来回答，同时也引导学生关注使用这些名词的真实语境。在语篇阅读状态下，学生加深了对它们的印象，并学会词汇分类记忆的方法。Step 3 Practice Part C: Complete the passage on Page7 with what weve learnt from Part A and Part B.Explanation记住这些新词汇后，需要学生在新的语境中学会运用。教材第七页上提供了很好的语篇材料，教会学生词汇学习的又一个重要方法，即不孤立地记忆或使用词汇。此时，并不要求学生会默写这些词，只要在阅读理解的过程中，根据上下文含义的需要能够填入相应的单词即可。就算个别词不会写也不要紧，可以参考第6页。能在语篇中使用词汇的能力比只会默写高级得多，对学生的阅读理解的能力有帮助。学生在此过程中不能只关注某一个单词，而是需要读懂全文，思考信息之间的逻辑关系，关注词与词之间的关联等。Step 4 PreviewPreview the new words of the text and explain some words by teaching some ways of word formation.Explanation 这套教材课文里的生词量较大，因此在下一节课学习课文之前让学生先预习课文里的生词很有必要。在预习过程中，主要是帮助学生正确地读出单词，并让学生根据构词法了解一些单词的意思。也可以采用联想法、比较法、直观法帮助学生记忆单词，但要注意切忌面面俱到。Homework1. Read and try to memorize the words we have learnt today;2. Preview the reading passage.Period2 Reading(1)Thoughts on design这是Reading 板块第一课时。第一课时侧重阅读理解，主要关注提升学生的阅读理解能力和思维能力。涉及到的阅读技能有：把握文体风格，理解中心思想，按照时间线索查找细节信息，了解行文结构和信息组织方式等。涉及到的思维能力是：进行信息重组再加工，学习运用所学知识和技能进行创造等。 Teaching aims:1. The students will be able to read the exhibition boards about the history of television and audio devices;2. The students will be able to know the reading strategy - understanding subtitles;3. The students will be able to talk about the development of other electronic devices.Teaching procedures:Step 1 Lead-inWhere did the writer find this piece of writing? (On the display boards at a media and technology exhibition.)What is it about? (The development of TV and audio devices.) (Explanation)在阅读导入环节，提出两个问题，提示学生关注本文的文体特点，目标读者和中心内容，对提高他们的阅读理解能力和思维能力都会有所帮助。从应试的角度来看，这些也是常见题型，平时可以因地制宜地进行这种训练。Step 2 Reading: the development of TVWhat do you think is the best way to get the most important information in such a long passage?(Follow the chronological order or in order of time). 1925 Wireless TV transmissions, USA 1923-1927 _ (Early forms of TV invented) 1928 _ (first long-distance TV broadcast) 1928-1929 _ (Regular public broadcasting) 1929 _ (Color TV shown) 1948 _ (Cable TV) 1951 _ (Color broadcasts) 1962 _ (Satellite TV) 1989 _ (International standards for digital TV) 1996 _ (WebTV set-up boxes)Step 3 Reading: the history of audio devices 1877 The first recording of a human voice 1931 _ (The first tape recorders) 1948 _ (Transistor invented) 1954 _ (Cassette recorders developed) 1958 _ (The first LPs (long-play records) 1979 _ (The Walkman introduced) 1982 _ (The first CDs produced) 1986 _ (Walkman was added to the Oxford English dictionary) 1987 _( Development of MP3 technology started in Germany) 1992 _( The MD player was developed)(Explanation)本文为科技类的说明文，信息量很大，时间跨度很长，但其中内容多为客观事实，从语言学习的角度，学生只需了解即可。所以阅读的重点应在于如何获取信息和如何进行信息分类等，需要深层次理解的内容其实并不多。但鉴于今后学生在学习和工作中会遇到大量此类文章，对此进行阅读方法的指导还是非常有必要的。建议阅读前请学生思考：面对信息量巨大且看似枯燥的这篇文章，如何迅速高效地抓住关键信息？指导学生通过快速浏览课文， 找出关键字词，如：development、 history、 in 1925、 later in 1928等一系列时间指示语，从而抓住文章的脉络，即时间线索，再依次找到有关其发展历史的关键信息。Step 4 Reading strategy 1. What can you see in the text before each part? (Subtitles ) 2. Why are subtitles used? (They can give us more information than the title and show us how the text is organized.)3. What is the structure of the passage?TV Early history of TV The modern age: cable TV, satellite TV, digital TV Audi
