Good morning, everyone. I’m Zhong Minling from No.3 Primary School. I’m glad to be here to share my lesson with you. Today, I’m going to talk about part A of unit 5, PEP Primary English, Book 5. I’ll divide it into four parts.
Part I Analysis of Teaching Material
1.Status and Function
First, let me analyse the teaching material. The topic of this unit is about describing animal actions with present tense. This period is the beginning of the unit. So the students have some new words and phrases to learn and memorize. In this part, as a teacher, I must arouse their interests in this unit, let them have a general idea about what they are going to learn. Furthermore, to master this lesson well is good for the next lessons.

Part II Teaching Methods
1.Communicative teaching method.
2.Audio-visual teaching method.
3.Task-based teaching method.
As we all know, the main instructional aims of learning English in Primary School is to cultivate pupils’ basic abilities of listening and speaking and their good sense of the English language. So in this lesson I’ll mainly use Communicative teaching method, Audio-visual teaching method and Task-based teaching method. That’s to say, I’ll let the students get a better understanding of the key words and structures. I’ll arrange several kinds of activities: singing, watching pictures, listening, guessing game, group work and so on. So in this lesson, a recorder, multi-media, cards and blackboard will be needed.
Part III Studying Ways
1.Let the students master the key verb phrases better by watching, listening, guessing and using.
2.Enable the students study English language by communicating, describing and listening.
3.Let the students understand how to compare qualities and how to cooperate.
Part IV Teaching Procedure
Step 1 Warm-up
1.Listen to the tape and sing the song “What are you doing?” together.
2.Do some TPR. I’ll Show some cards of verb phrases and let the students read and do the actions.
3.Free talk with the students: What are you doing?
This step can arouse students’ interests of learning English by singing and doing some total physical response and at the same time it provides situations to review learned knowledge for the next step.
Step 2 Presentation
1.I’ll write down the words on the blackboard: fly, jump, walk. And let the students do the actions. eg: Fly like a bird. Jump like a rabbit. Walk like an elephant.
2.Show a bird picture and say: Look at the bird! What’s the bird doing? And lead the students to answer: It’s flying! The bird is flying. At the same time I’ll write down the word “flying” on the blackboard. Let the students read and repeat “flying, flying”.
3.Use the same method to teach “walking” and “jumping”.
4.Point to the rabbit and ask: The rabbit is jumping, why? Lead to the students answer: Because the tiger is running. The tiger is running after the rabbit. Teach “running” and emphasis its form.
5.Point to the fish in the water and ask: What is the fish doing? Lead the students to say: It’s swimming. And emphasis its form.
6.Listen to the tape and get the students to follow it.
This step I present the key words and structures one by one. It’s much easier for the students to learn and grasp the meanings. And tell the students we should show our loveliness to the animals and to the nature.
Step 3 Practice
After dealing with the key verbs with “ing” form. I arrange three games.
Game1. Test your eye sight. I show some flash animal pictures and get the students to say the action words. I’ll praise to do the best.
Game2. Pair work. One student wears a headgear of an animal and does the action like the animal, the other student makes a sentence.
Game3. Groups work. The first three students come to the blackboard. One takes out a card of an animal. The other takes out a card of word. Another reads out the sentence. If the sentence can do the movement of the animal, they keep the two cards, if not, put the cards back and continue the game.
Though this step, students consolidate they learned in class and develop their abilities of communication and cooperation.
Step4 Homework
1.Copy the words and sentences learned in class.
2.Listen to the tape and read the words and sentences to your parents.
It is necessary for the students to do some extensive exercises after class to consolidate the knowledge they learned.
