Step 4 Dialogue Presentation

The teacher's brief introduction

Today we will learn a dialogue about keeping fish. Kate and Li Qun are talking about it. Now read the dialogue silently and find out the answers to these questions:

1. Pre-reading silently

Questions

d) What size tank should she get? ( A tank about 30 cm by 30 cm by 50 cm.)

e) What should Kate put in the tank?

(A few large rocks and some underwater plants)

2. The first listening

A. Listening and answering

Play the tape for the Ss to listen. Go through the dialogue briefly. Ask questions

Slide 3

Why should Kate put a few large rocks in the tank?

( Because fish love swimming round the rocks and through holes in them.)

Why should Kate put some underwater plants in the tank?

( Because the underwaer plants can keep the water clean and make the tank look much prettier.)

Allow the Ss a few moments to carry out the task. Check the answers.

3. The second listening

A. Listening and explanation

Play the tape again.Let the Ss listen the second time. While listening, I explain the language points. Make sure the Ss understand it.

a. the other day = a few days ago

b They don't get enough air:

With a bowl, only a small surface area of the water is in contact with the air. So the water does not receive enough oxygen.

c 30 cm by 30 cm by 50 cm.

We describe two-dimensional and three-dimensional measurements using the word by. So the length of the tank is 50 cm, and the width and height both 30 cm.

e underwater plants:

These plants oxygenate the water and keep it clean.

d For one thing = one reason (for putting plants in the tank)

Step 5 . Practice and deep understanding

a. Following

Let the Ss listen and follow the dialogue,then I ask a few pairs to act the scene in front of the class.

b. Question

Why should Kate get a large tank to keep the fish in?

(With a bowl, only a small surface area of the water is in contact with the air. So the water does not receive enough oxygen.)

c. Moral lessons

Keeping fish or birds or keeping any other animal can bring us happiness and enjoyment. It can cultivate our healthy hobby. So we must love these animals. They are our good friends. We are living on the earth happily together.

If the animals die out, it will cause dying out of human being, like the dying out of dinosaur. I mean disappear throughly from the earth. Not only the mankind but also everything in the world. Much more, the earth will also be destroyed. what a horrible thing! We must protect our environments and keep the balance of the nature.

Step 6 Practice Part 2

Ask the students to make similar dialogues to practise making suggestions and replying, using the phrases given. Pay particular attention to sentence stress and intonation.

PART 5 Comments

Teachers should employ proper teaching methods and techniques to satisfy their needs. They are in great need of instructions on how to be successful language learners. Teachers should train them with some effective learning strategies to optimize their learning results.

My lesson plan is designed on the basis of these two principles. The questions in my teaching plan are raised for the purpose of arousing the students' interests and aimed to help the students to concentrate on the meaning of the dialogue.

As for the language points, they are presented and practiced related to students' life as much as possible. This way of teaching language points is employed in the hope that students will find them easier to understand and retain, and that they can use some of them immediately in their everyday life.

Dialogue Production is a solution to the problem of lacking chances to practice English outside class. This activity can train the students with this learning method. The teacher's encouragement and facilitation are necessary to make the students feel the happiness of success, so that they may want to try more either in class or outside class in the future.
