III. Teaching Procedures
Learning activities:
Step 1 Study a Model (Step 1)
Analyze the model invitation
T: Study a model. Read the invitation and complete the 5W1H chart below. Look at Jack's invitation to Peter and find details for each 5W1H question.
Ask Ss to fill the chart:
What: Celebrating The New Year.
When: 7 p.m. on 28 December.
Where: Jack's house.
Why: To say goodbye to the old year and welcome the new year.
How: With delicious snacks, drinks, games, dancing, and putting up decorations.
Discuss how the 5W1H chart helps organize invitation details and how “it” is used (It'll be fun).
Step 2 Brainstorm with 5W1H (Step 2)
Choose a festival and brainstorm
T: Think. Choose a traditional festival you would like to celebrate. Form your own 5W1H questions about the celebration party and try to answer them.
In groups, Ss choose a festival (e.g., The Mid - Autumn Festival, The Lantern Festival) and brainstorm 5W1H details:
Who: Friends/classmates.
What: Celebrating The Mid - Autumn Festival.
When: 6 p.m. on the Mid - Autumn Festival day.
Where: School classroom.
Why: To enjoy the full moon and share mooncakes.
How: With mooncake tasting, lantern making, and telling moon stories.
Each group shares their 5W1H questions and answers, and the class compiles a list.
Step 3 Write the Invitation (Step 3)
Complete the invitation
T: plete your invitation with the details from Step 2. Use “it” in some of the sentences.
Guide Ss to start with “Hi [name],”, then write about the festival coming, party details (using 5W1H), and invite the person, using “it” (e.g., “It will be a wonderful time to enjoy mooncakes and make lanterns.”).
Walk around to help with sentence structure and vocabulary.
Step 4 Self - Check (Step 4)
Check the writing
T: Read your own writing and answer the questions: Did you give the key details of the party Did you use the pronoun “it” to talk about the party
Ask Ss to check their invitations against these questions, correcting any mistakes.
Step 5 Peer Review (Step 5)
Exchange and review
T: Exchange your writing with another student. Answer the questions: Does the writer give the key details of the party Does the writer use the pronoun “it” to talk about the party
Ss review each other's invitations, give feedback, and suggest improvements.
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Assess Ss' ability to extract details from the model invitation by checking their completed 5W1H charts in Step 1.
Observe the completeness and relevance of the brainstormed 5W1H details in Step 2.
Evaluate Ss' writing skills by checking the invitation in Step 3, focusing on key details and “it” usage.
Assess Ss' self - checking and peer review abilities by observing their answers to the check questions.
This lesson helps Ss learn to write a festival celebration party invitation, improving writing organization, detail - giving skills, and use of “it”.
V. Design Purpose
Studying the model helps Ss understand the structure of a party invitation and how a 5W1H chart and “it” are used.
Brainstorming encourages creativity and planning about festival celebration parties.
Writing, self - checking, and peer review provide a comprehensive writing process, helping Ss improve through practice and feedback.
VI. Blackboard Design
Unit E Writing “An invitation to a celebration party”
5W1H Chart (model):
Who: Peter
What: Celebrating The New Year
When: 7 p.m. on 28 December
Where: Jack's house
Why: Say goodbye to old year, welcome new year
How: Snacks, drinks, games, dancing, decorations
Key sentence pattern: It + verb phrase/adjective (to talk about the party).
VII. Homework
Polish the invitation written in class based on self - check and peer review.
Send your invitation to a friend or family member and ask for their response.
VIII. Teaching Reflection
The step - by - step writing process effectively helped Ss organize their ideas and write the invitation. Ss showed good understanding of using a 5W1H chart and “it” for the party. However, some Ss struggled with varying sentence structures when describing the party. In future lessons, more practice on sentence variety can be provided.
