Ss：Yes，we are ready!
T：Great！Let's start by reading the sentences in 3a.While reading，please circle the linking words you find.Remember，our goal is to discover the rules of sentence patterns.
(Students start reading and circling the linking words.)
T：(after a few minutes) Have you found any linking words？Can anyone share with us
S：I found “and”，“but” and “because”．
T：Excellent observation！These are indeed important linking words that help us connect ideas in sentences.Now，let's talk about their specific roles in sentences.
设计意图：通过复习和感知句子中的连接词，激活学生对句子结构和连接词的基本认知。明确本节课的学习目标，即探索句子模式和连接词的规则，引导学生集中注意力。通过提出探索性的任务，激发学生对新知识的兴趣和好奇心。
Activity 2 Presentation(获取与梳理)
Work on 3a
T：Now，let's work on 3a together.Read the sentences carefully and discuss the functions of the linking words “and”，“but” and “because”．You can work in groups to discuss and help each other.
(Students work in groups，reading and discussing the sentences.)
T：(after a few minutes) Alright，let's share your ideas together.Who can tell us why we use “and” in the first sentence
At last，the teacher explains each rule with examples from the sentences in 3a.
设计意图：通过小组活动和教师引导，使学生深入理解“and”“but”和“because”在句子中的具体用法和规则。鼓励学生通过小组合作，相互讨论和帮助，培养团队协作能力和解决问题的能力。教师总结归纳连接词的用法规则，帮助学生构建系统的知识框架，便于记忆和运用。
Activity 3 Practice(内化与运用)
Work on 3b
T：Good morning，everyone.Today we're going to practice matching sentences using conjunctions like and，but and because.Let's start with 3b.
T：(showing the first sentence) “I have a bicycle，” What can we add to make it a complete sentence
S1：(after thinking) “I have a bicycle，because I like travelling.”
T：That's a good try，but let's see if we can find a better match.Look at the options.(pointing to E)
T：“I have a bicycle，but I often walk to school.” This shows a contrast between having a bicycle and choosing to walk.Understand
Ss：Yes.
T：Great！Let's move on to the next one.“I like to learn about IT”
S2：“I like to learn about IT and draw pictures.”
T：Perfect！You found the right match.Now，let's do this together for the rest of the sentences.
(The teacher guides students through the rest of the sentences，checking and correcting as needed.)

T：(reading the passage) “I love Thursday afternoons ______ we have a fun class then.”(The teacher stops at each blank and asks students to suggest the correct conjunction.)
T：What conjunction should we use here
S：“But.”
T：No，let's think about it.What's the connection between “I love Thursday afternoons” and “we have a fun class then”？
Ss：(after discussing) “Because.”
T：Correct！“I love Thursday afternoons because we have a fun class then.” Let's continue.
(The teacher leads students through the rest of the passage，emphasizing the use of conjunctions in the context.)
设计意图：通过这个活动，学生能够将之前学习的连词知识迁移到新的语境中，通过阅读和理解短文，选择合适的连词填空，进一步加深对连词用法的理解。同时，通过集体讨论和教师的引导，学生能够培养批判性思维和语言创新能力。
Activity 5 Pair work(概括与整合)

Activity 6 Homework(反馈与强化)
Write a short passage in English introducing your favourite subject，including the reasons why you like it and what you have learned in this subject.Use conjunctions such as and，but，and because to connect sentences and make the essay logically clear.
Section A　Grammar Focus 3a—3d because―→give a reason but―→say how two ideas are different and―→give another idea
During the teaching process，it is necessary to guide students to understand and use conjunctions such as and，but，and because through actual contexts，rather than merely explaining grammar rules.At the same time，give students enough time to practice and express themselves，allowing them to gradually master the usage of these conjunctions in practice.Additionally，group cooperation or interactive activities can be used to enhance students' interest and participation，and to improve teaching effectiveness.The teacher should assign homework based on the actual situation and ability level of students so that each student can understand the meaning of grammar and learn to use the knowledge of grammar.
