新课讲解 - 3a 阅读部分
Teacher: Look at 3a. Here, we have an article about someone's New Year's resolutions. First, let's read it quickly and answer two questions. How many New Year's resolutions does the author have And what are they Start reading.
(Students read the text quickly)
Teacher: OK, time's up. Who can answer the first question How many New Year's resolutions does the author have
Student 6: Three.

Student 7: Taking up a new hobby, going to get fitter, and studying English.

Student 8: Do jogging, push - ups, and sit - ups.
Teacher: Correct. Write it down in the table. And for English, how does the author plan to study
Student 9: Study for two more hours each weekend.
Teacher: Very good. Fill it in the table. Now, let's analyze the text together. In the first paragraph, it says "As the year draws to a close, it is the perfect time to think about the changes we want to make in the coming new year." What does "draw to a close" mean
Student 10: It means come to an end.
Teacher: Exactly. So, when the year is coming to an end, we think about new plans. And the author says "We can improve our lives by learning something new, forming good habits, working harder at something, or even improving our relationships with others." Can you give an example of forming good habits
Student 11: Going to bed early.
Teacher: Great example. Now, let's look at the second paragraph. The author wants to take up a new hobby, singing. Why does the author think singing is a great activity
Student 12: Because the author's friends and family all love his/her singing.
Teacher: Right. In the third paragraph, it mentions "Besides jogging, I am going to do push - ups and sit - ups. I feel energetic after I exercise." What does "energetic" mean
Student 13: Full of energy.
Teacher: Correct. When we exercise, we feel full of energy. And in the last paragraph, the author says "Last but not least, my English isn't good enough, so I am going to study for two more hours each weekend. It might be hard, but I am going to get a lot better at English!" Why does the author use "Last but not least"
Student 14: To show that this resolution is also very important.
Teacher: Excellent. It's a good way to end a list of important things.
新课讲解 - 3b 写作准备部分
Teacher: Now, it's your turn to think about your own resolutions. Look at 3b. We need to write down the things we want to improve and our resolutions. Let's start with physical health. What can you do to improve your physical health
Student 15: Go jogging every morning.
Teacher: Good. You can write "Go jogging for 30 minutes every morning". What else
Student 16: Eat more vegetables.
Teacher: Great. Add it to your resolution. Now, think about a skill you want to improve, like painting skills. How can you improve your painting skills
Student 17: Take a painting class.
Teacher: Right. You can write "Take a painting class every weekend". And don't forget to practice. What about practicing
Student 18: Practice drawing for an hour daily.
Teacher: Perfect. Write it down. Now, let's think about time management. How can you manage your time better
Student 19: Make a to - do list.
Teacher: Good idea. Write "Make a daily to - do list and follow it strictly". And what should we avoid
Student 20: Procrastinating.
Teacher: Exactly. Add "and avoid procrastinating" to your resolution.
新课讲解 - 3c 写作部分
Teacher: Now, based on the notes in 3b, we are going to write three paragraphs. In each paragraph, write what you are going to improve and how. First, let's think about the structure of the article. How many paragraphs are there in the article in 3a
Students: Four.
Teacher: But for our writing, we only need three paragraphs. The first paragraph can be a general introduction, like "As the new year is coming, I want to make some resolutions to improve myself." The second paragraph can be about one thing you want to improve, like physical health. Start with "The first resolution is about improving my physical health. I am going to go jogging for 30 minutes every morning and eat more vegetables. I believe this will make me stronger and healthier." Now, you try to write the second paragraph about the skill you want to improve.
(Students start writing)
Teacher: (Walking around the class, checking students' writing) Remember to use correct grammar and spelling. If you are not sure about a word, you can look it up in the dictionary.
(After a few minutes)
Teacher: Let's stop for a moment. Who wants to share their second paragraph
Student 21: The second resolution is about improving my painting skills. I am going to take a painting class every weekend and practice drawing for an hour daily. I hope I can draw better pictures.
Teacher: Very good. You have clearly stated what you want to improve and how. But we can make it a little better. For example, you can add "I think painting is a great way to express my creativity, so I am really looking forward to improving my skills." Now, continue writing the third paragraph about time management.
(Students continue writing)
Teacher: (After students finish) Now, let's check our writing. First, check your own writing. Read it carefully and see if there are any grammar mistakes or spelling mistakes. Then, exchange your writing with your partner and check each other's.
(Students check their own and their partners' writing)
Teacher: OK, let's come back together. Who wants to share their whole writing with the class
Student 22: As the new year is coming, I want to make some resolutions to improve myself. The first resolution is about improving my physical health. I am going to go jogging for 30 minutes every morning and eat more vegetables. I believe this will make me stronger and healthier. The second resolution is about improving my painting skills. I am going to take a painting class every weekend and practice drawing for an hour daily. I think painting is a great way to express my creativity, so I am really looking forward to improving my skills. The last resolution is about better time management. I am going to make a daily to - do list and follow it strictly, and avoid procrastinating. I hope I can use my time more effectively.
Teacher: Wonderful! Your writing is clear, and you have used the correct structure and grammar. Let's give him/her a big hand. Now, for those of you who haven't shared yet, you can continue to improve your writing at home.
课堂总结
