8、duction (3 mins)T: Good morning, boys and girls.Ss: . Before we start todays learning tasks, lets enjoy a piece of video first. And after that you will describe your impressions and feelings towards the characters in it. You can describe them from the perspectives of their dressing, characteristics,
9、 actions, etc. You should try to describe them in English. And I am here to provide any help you need. Are you clear? (PPT 1)(Task 1 Enjoy a video and describe the characters.)(The video comes from It is a 30 seconds clipping of the reality show Daddy, where are we going. In the video, a singer Cao
10、Ge is accompanying his crying daughter Grace who should finish her tasks by herself.) OK! In this video, I saw a handsome singer who has a crying daughter. Now its your turn to share your opinions.(The teacher expects students to produce adjectives or other kind of attributes to describe the video.)
11、 Very good! You all have described Grace and other characters in your own ways. And today, we will learn another way to describe and modify objects and persons together.4.6.2 Stage 2 Revision (5 mins)(Task 2 Read the dialogues and answer the questions.) You have learned that attribute and relative c
12、lauses can be used to describe and modify things in junior school. So before we continue further study, lets do some revision first. Please work in groups to read the two conversations on Page 38. While reading, please pay attention to the blue parts and after that please finish the following tasks:
13、1) Describe the boy from the perspectives of his appearance, dress and his parent; 2) What kinds of rulers are there? 3) Which kind of ruler is more colorful? (PPT 2 presents the dialogues and the questions.) (Here, as students answering the above questions, the teacher guides students to produce ou
14、tcomes as presented on the blackboard as following.) Have you finished? Who can answer the questions?(Blackboard 1) Now we can see that there are three ways to describe and modify objects/persons. Please tell me together. . (Students are expected to say adjectives, prepositional phrases and relative
15、 clauses.) Yes. And now tick the correct choices according to your understanding of the dialogues above. (PPT 3) .(With the help of the teacher, students figure out the positions of adjective and prepositional phrase and relative clause when they function as attribute. And for a better understanding
16、, the teacher shows the following graph on PPT.)4.6.3 Stage 3 Presentation (15 mins)(Task 3 Understand the structure of a sentence with relative clause through a picture.) Thats right. When we use a relative clause to describe or modify a thing, we put it after the noun. Now, lets study how to use a
17、 relative clause with relative pronouns in a detailed way. I will compare a sentence with relative clause to a train. Could you find the corresponding parts for the “train” and the sentence? (PPT 4) Right! Lets see it together. The main sentence is .; the relative pronoun is the .; and the relative
18、clause is the . (The teacher expects the students to say it.) . (Students are expected to say the head, the connection, and the car. )(Meanwhile, the teacher displays the graph on PPT as follows.)(Task 4 Figure out how to choose relative pronouns through reading sample sentences and answering questi
19、ons.) Now you know what a sentence with relative clause looks like. Then, lets see how to choose the right relative pronoun for the relative clause. There are some sentences with relative clauses. Work in group to read them. While reading, you have the following tasks to do: 1) underline the relativ
20、e clause in each sentence; 2) color the relative clause in each sentence; 3) link the relative pronoun and the noun it describes/modifies with arrow; and 4) classify the relative clauses into two categories: the one that describes/modifies a person and the one that describes/modifies an object. And
21、please pay attention that you have to color the relative pronouns which describe/modify a person and an object with two different colors. (PPT 5)(The following sentences are printed and distributed to students before class.)1. He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man.2. He is the boss
22、(whom) I work for. / He is the boss for whom I work.3. Can you lend me the book which was written by Socrates?4. The boy whose spoken English is excellent is my friend.5. New York is a city which/that never sleeps.6. Finally, the thief handed everything that he had stolen to the police.7. He is the
23、very man that helped the girl out of the water .8. Hero is the person (that) everyone wants to be.9. The computer which/that I bought a month ago broke down yesterday.10. I bought a novel whose name is Gone with the Wind.11. This is my school whose buildings are very grand.12. I do not like the pers
24、on whom you are talking about.13.Is this the song which/that you are interested in?14. A friend who helps you in time of need is a real friend.15. China is no longer the country (that) it was. Tell me which sentences with relative clauses are used for describing/modifying person? Tell me their numbe
25、r. . And which relative pronouns are used to describe/modify person? Then, which relative clauses are used for describing/modifying objects? And the relative pronouns are.(As the students answering the questions, the teacher presents the answer on PPT as follows.) Then lets summarize the rules. When
26、 we are describing a person, which relative pronouns can we use? And when we are describing/modifying a thing, which relative pronouns can we use?(The teacher draws a chart as follows on the blackboard.)(Task 5 Understand some exceptions: some confusing relative pronouns and omission of relative pro
27、nouns through reading sample sentences.)(Differences between who and whom.) Read these sentences again and discuss in your group when will you use who and when will you use whom to be the relative pronouns. (PPT 7) Have you worked out? From these four sentences we can see that when the relative pron
28、oun functions as subjective in the relative clause, we use who; and when the relative pronoun functions as objective in the relative clause, we use whom.(Occasions of that only and which only.) From the early sentences you have read, you may find out that the relative pronoun that and which sometime
29、s can replace each other, especially when the noun being described refers to an object. But there are also occasions when they can not replace each other. Read the following sentences and discuss in your group when we can only use which/that. Understand? (PPT 8 & 9)They are talking of the heroines a
