Teaching Procedures	Tips
Step 1 Lead in
The T can play a listen and guess game to arouse Ss’ interest and lead in the unit topic. The T play some music and ask Ss to guess the names of these pieces and which musical instrument they are played on. The T can guide Ss to brainstorm more Chinese musical instruments. And introduce some basic information about   Chinese musical instruments.
Step 2 Presentation & Reading
2a   The activity is to engage Ss in a speaking activity to prepare them for the subsequent reading task. The T may ask Ss to make the list in pairs or groups before having a class discussion to consolidate the answers. Try to get all Ss involved in the activity. Then the T can present some suggested answers like this: Chinese bamboo flute: Purple Bamboo Melody（紫竹调） erhu: Erquan Yingyue（二泉映月）; Horse Racing（赛马） suona: Bainiao Chaofeng（百鸟朝凤）; Quanjiafu（全家福） ... Before reading, the T can ask Ss to look at the pictures and the title and prompt Ss to predict the answer of the three questions in 2b. Then the T can introduce some background information about Abing and Erquan Yingyue. Play the music and encourage Ss to express their feelings after hearing it.    If there is a student who can play erhu in the class, the T can invite him/her to bring erhu to school in advance and play the music for all Ss. 2b   The activity is to provide Ss with practice in reading for specific information. The T can make Ss read the passage quickly and finish the task in 2b. Then the T can present the correct answers.   Answers: Abing. Erquan Yingyue (Moon Reflected on Second Spring). He feels that it is sad but beautiful, and it not only paints a picture of Abing’s own life but also makes people recall their deepest wounds from their own sad or painful experiences. 2c   The activity is to provide Ss with practice in identifying main ideas and supporting details in a passage. The T may wan to explain what a typical paragraph consists of. An understanding of this will enhance Ss’ reading and writing skills. Note: A typical paragraph is made up of a main idea and supporting details.   The main idea expresses what the whole paragraph is about, which is usually explicitly stated in a sentence called topic sentence. The topic sentence is often found at the beginning of a paragraph. Sometimes the main idea is implied rather than explicitly stated.   Supporting details tell us more about the main idea. They can come in form of examples,reasons, opinions or other detailed information. Ask Ss read the passage carefully and complete the chart in 2c individually. Then Ss can check with partners. At last the T can present the correct answers and guide Ss to read the passage carefully again. During the process, the T can explain the new words and expressions to Ss to help them have a better understanding.    Answers: moved; The music was strangely beautiful but under the beauty I    sensed a strong sadness and pain. It was one of the most moving pieces of music I’ve ever heard. The erhu sounded so sad that I almost cried along with it as I listened. hard; His mother died when he was very young. His father died when he was a teenager. He was poor and homeless. He developed an illness and became blind. He lived on the streets and played music to make money. popular; He could play over 600 pieces, and he wrote many of them   himself. His most famous piece is still played and praised by erhu masters today. Erquan Yingyue has become one of China’s national treasures. 2d   The activity is to provide Ss with practice in using the target language and vocabulary. The T may want to review the use of the relative pronouns that and who.   Note: Although that and who can both be used for people, who is usually the preferred relative pronoun used to give more information about people.   Ask Ss to finish the task in 2d without looking at the passage, then invite some Ss to share their answers to make sure everyone get the answers correct. Answers: that, sense, wounds, pain, that, praise, pity. 2e The activity is to provide Ss with the opportunity to make    conversations based on information they have just read. Before Ss start on the activity, the T can ask Ss to make an ID card for Abing like this to make sure they have got enough information about Abing. Name: _______________________________Profession: ___________________________Musical instruments: ___________________Important events:1893: Abing was born in the city of Wuxi.His mother died.… After Ss finish the card, the T can ask Ss to make conversations in pairs and invite some Ss to role-play their conversations. The T can make assessments.
Step 3Language points learning
How do/does sb. feel about...? 某人认为……如何/ 怎么样？用来询问某人对某事或某人的看法。同义句型有：What do/does sb. think of...?  /  How do/does sb. like...? sense v. 感觉到；意识到   n. 感觉；意识 sense 作名词的常用短语： ① make sense 有道理 ② in no sense 决不 ③ in a sense 从某种意义上说 ④ a sense of humour 幽默感 ⑤ a sense of responsibility 责任感 ⑥ common sense   常识 ...	The language points are for reference only.
Step 4  Summary & Homework	The homework can vary with the specific conditions.
Summary  The T can encourage Ss to summarize the key points of this class to help Ss consolidate the knowledge. Homework:     Read and recite the passage in 2b. Do the exercises in students’ book.
Teaching Reflection	In order to practice the students' reading ability，we must do a lot of work and keep on doing the same work.We usually help students to get the relative knowledge or new words and expressions ready for the reading.And during reading，we use noting supporting details strategy and read the passage again and again.Students read with tasks，finish the tasks and learn the new words and expressions while reading.After that，they can use the information to retell the story.We should train the students in this way.
