Unit3 Growing Up
Section B (3a-3c)
Learning Objectives
To extract and find out the reasons why Kelly thanks her teacher by reading the thank-you letter; sort out the structure of a thank-you letter: the opening clearly states the person being thanked, the middle part explains specific reasons for gratitude in separate paragraphs, and the closing re-expresses gratitude and includes the signature.
To internalize the language logic of expressing gratitude based on the text content and the note-taking framework in 3b by clarifying the person they want to thank; describing the difficulties they faced, and explaining how the person helped them; learn and apply the thank-you sentence patterns provided in 3c..
To improve their ability to narrate around the theme of gratitude and clearly describe others' help as well as their own feelings by analyzing model essays and doing imitation writing exercises.

Read and Answer
Read the passage and answer the questions.
Dear Mrs Thompson,
I want to thank you for being my teacher. You took the time to help me, although you were so busy.
Your classes always made me happy. I used to think that science was boring and difficult, and I did badly in class. I never liked science until I took your class. You encouraged me and made science lessons fun, and slowly, I grew more confident.
I also want to thank you for being kind to me. You helped me a lot, especially after my grandmother passed away. I couldn’t talk about my feelings to anybody until you sat with me during lunch that day. You listened to me and talked with me so that I felt much better. That day will always remain in my mind. Thank you so much for being not only my teacher but also my friend.
Sincerely,
Kelly Smith

Read and Think
Dear Lily,
I want to thank you for being such an amazing friend. You’ve always been there for me, even when you had your own things to deal with.
I used to be really bad at math—numbers felt like a foreign language, and I’d cry after failing the tests. I almost gave up until you offered to help me study every weekend. You explained difficult problems in funny ways, and we’d laugh over silly mistakes together. Slowly, math stopped being scary, and I even started getting good grades!
I also want to thank you for cheering me up when I was sad. when I lost the school singing competition，I felt so embarrassed and didn’t want to talk to anyone. But you sat with me on the playground, shared your favorite candy, and told me my voice was beautiful. Your kind words made me feel brave again. That moment made me realize how lucky I am to have you.
Thank you for being not just my friend, but my partner in fun and my shoulder to cry on. I cherish our friendship more than words can say.
Sincerely,
Emma Wilson
