Lesson Plan Interpretation

The status and the function

The New Course focuses on the Ss’ abilities to gather information; deal with information; solve problems and the abilities to think and express in English. The passage is the third period of the unit. In my opinion, it is very important for the Ss to learn because it helps Ss a lot in getting the abilities mentioned above. It first introduces the importance of the skin to our body, then introduces types of burns, characteristics of burns and certain steps of first aid treatments. It is hoped that through the passage, the Ss will know how to perform first aid procedures for burns and do first aid calmly during an emergency.

Step1. Lead-in

I’ll lead-in the passage by telling the Ss a story to attract their interest first, meanwhile, teach them the new words: bandage, first-aid-kit, ambulance and then ask them to think of words about accidents and first aid by using brainstorming to check their vocabulary

Step2. Pre-reading

The pre-reading prepares Ss for the passage and relates the subjects of their own experience. They are encouraged to speak out their answer. Different answers are available.

Step3. Fast reading

This task is to check the Ss’ skimming ability. The purpose is to let the Ss get the main idea of the passage and what the text is about.

Step4. Detailed reading

Ask the Ss to finish the following 5 Exx. by using competitions. I’ll divide the Ss into 4 groups. If a student can answer the question correctly, then his/ her group can get one point. And the group which gets the most points is the winner. Only through co-operation can the Ss taste the joy of success. If the Ss know their answer is right, he’ll be confident and they’ll surely become more enthusiasm in learning English. These Exx are designed from the easiest one to the most difficult one for different levels’ Ss. The purpose is to the Ss’ reading comprehension.

Step5. Words competition

This is a task-based activity by continuing the competition to check the Ss’ words spelling. The task is so easy that all of the Ss will show interested in it. So they can learn the words easily.

Step6. Making a first-aid-kit

This is also a task-based activity. It is to let the Ss know what is included in a first-aid-kit. I’ll ask them to make a first-aid –kit after class and show me theirs the next day. The activity not only let the Ss learn knowledge but also develop their abilities. That is, when dealing with an emergency, the Ss can use the contents in the first-aid-kit, they can also have the abilities to act, learn to survive, and be self-preservation.

Step7. Role play

This is an interesting task-based activity. The task is to develop the Ss’ abilities to speak and express in English and their reaction. The purpose is to train the Ss to prepare for an emergency before it happens.

Step8. Summary

They also learn to make a first-aid-kit and place an emergency call for help. Through the passage, the Ss’ thinking ability and acting ability are improved. At last, they will be told to remember the following:

While making the summary, I’ll play a background music to match it. The purpose of the step is to increase the Ss’ awareness of the importance of knowing about first aid.

Step9. Homework

The passage doesn’t contain enough information for the Ss to do first aid for others, so they are asked to search as much information as they can about first aid on the Internet.

After class, I’ll also ask the Ss to think of the following:

The passage is a medical science and language. The Ss not only learn language in it, but they also learn some abilities. So we can’t only consider a passage a language passage. We can’t only learn a passage by learning it.

Blackboard design

At last, let me show you my blackboard design: The title is in the middle, on the left side is some important words and expressions, and then on the left of it is the result of the competition.

The Blackboard Design is to let the Ss have a clear idea to get the vocabulary of accidents and first aid and what kinds of headings are also the main idea of each part.
