Step II Warming up T: Do you like poetry, SA? SA: Yes, I do. I like it very much. T: Why do you like it? SA: I learn a great deal from poetry. When I was a small child, my mother taught me the poem: 锄禾日当午，汗滴禾下土。谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦。And she explained the meaning of it. I know from a little child that grain comes from pains and we should not waste whatever we eat. T: How about you, SB ? SB: I don't like poetry very much, because I had a bad memory when I was a small child. I like to make something. T： What English poems, song words or rhymes have you read? Can you recite any? Sc：I've read some English poems when I was in Junior Middle School. And it is like this: I Love the Sun I love the sun, I love the spring, I love the birds, That gaily sing. I love my school, I love my play, And I love all, That is nice and gay. SD: I remember I've read a poem about the names of the months. It is: Thirty days have September. April, June and November, All the rest have thirty-one, Excepting February alone, And that has twenty-eight days clear, And twenty nine in each leap year. T: Very good. Now turn to Page 25. Do the third part. Do you know“打油诗”? In English limerick is like“打油诗”in Chinese. It is a special, funny poem and is written just to make people laugh. Read the two limericks and enjoy them. (Students read the poems together and at last two students are asked to read them.) T: What is the pattern of each poem? “pattern” means “格调”. SE: It's funny. It is written just to make others laugh, I think. T: Now, please answer the last question on Page 25. SF :To talk about poets and poetry, we often use the words ：“good, bad, interesting, funny, dull, meaningful, meaningless, etc”. Sa: We will also use“ moving, instructive, encouraging, make me happy, sad, etc”. T: What phrases do you think will be useful when you express your intentions and reach decisions? SH :When we want to express our intentions, we often say: I'm going to…; I intend/mean/plan to… ; I will…; I feel like (doing sth. )…; I'd like to… ; I'm ready to…; I would rather not…etc. SI：When we want to reach decisions, we often use: In my opinion, we should…; What's your opinion? I think/believe/suppose we should…;I don't think it's necessary to…; We must decide…; I hope we can reach/come to/arrive at/ take/make a decision, etc. (责任编辑：admin) |
