Purpose: to arouse students’ interest, introduce the topic and let Ss know some background about Stonehenge. Part Two: While-reading(28 minutes) In While-reading , I adopt the top-down reading model. This step is divided into 3 parts: prediction, fast reading and careful reading. 1)Prediction:If you are asked to write an article(文章）about a place, what will you write about it Look at the title “Stonehenge--Can Anyone Explain Why It Is There ”.How do you understand the title Purpose: to develop the habit of predicting before reading2) Fast reading Task 1:Skim to find out the main ideaTell the students: The theme(主题)of an article often comes in the first paragraph, usually at the first or last sentence...

How many ideas about what Stonehenge was used for are mentioned in the text Task3Scan para4 to find out: 1. How was Stonehenge built 2.

Students should not only have a high speed of reading but also have a correct understanding of details.Task3: Read Part.3 Do we build another Stonehenge Why What can we learn from ancient people Purpose:To strengthen the moral education, which is to meet the needs of the New Curriculum Standards of English.4)Language appreciation : Translate: 1. For many years, historians believe Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicated with the gods. 2. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stone must be for a special purpose. 3. we do know they must have been hardworking--and great planners! Purpose:To let Ss accumulate some language points.Part three:Post-reading ( 10 minutes)Learning for use: Make a dialogue.假如你是一名导游，你和游客之间进行了有关Stonehenge的对话.Guide:Welcome to Stonehenge. I am honored to introduce it to you.Visitor A: Could you tell me when it was built Guide: ...Visitor B: ... Purpose: 1.Enable the students to put the expressions in this passage into practice. It is a process of language output, which can help the renewal of the language. This exactly accords with the standard of high school curriculum, which advocates promoting students’ thinking and expressing abilities in English. 2.Help Students form their own judgment . At the same time, students can learn to be cooperative. Part4: Question Time and homework( 2minutes) I’ll leave the last 2 minutes for the students to ask questions. It’s another chance for them to study autonomously. The homework : Add more information and finish your own passage of Stonehenge after class. Purpose: 1.According to the basic teaching theory from Robert Mills Gagné: “Every student is unique, every student wants to play a role in the class.” I have to try my best to make my class as lively and interesting as possible. Then all my students could find their positions in my lesson. Just as the movie says, “ Not one less”.2.Transfer the reading ability to writing ability.
