My students are first-grade students of senior high school.They have been learning English in junior high school and have accumulated a certain number of vocabularies.They have mastered some simple learning strategies and skills with a preliminary ability of speaking and writing.However, the differences in students’ personality and English proficiency are very large. So my teaching design should have gradient to meet the need of different student.
As a language, the most basic function of English is human communication.But the general condition of Chinese students is that they do not want to speak English.So in my class, I strongly recommend the students to speak up to practice their oral English. 三、Teaching objectives

According to the psychological characteristics of high school Ss, the teacher should adopt various forms of teaching methods, and Ss should participate in the class activity, in order to stimulate Ss’ interest, so that they will learn to participate in and learn from participation. I decide to use the following teaching methods. 1. Task-based learning
for example: Let the Ss complete some reading tasks. 2. Cooperative learning for example: group discussion 六、Teaching procedures Step 1 Lead in
At the beginning of the class, I will introduce some proverb to the Ss. Such
as:
A life without a friend is a life without a sun. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
You can buy friendship with friendship, but never with dollars. So the Ss will know people’s general views on friend and friendship. Purpose: to introduce the proverb is to introduce the topic to the Ss in a interesting way. And it can also develop the Ss’ habit of accumulating language.
Step 2 Warming up
(1) I will ask the students to discuss some questions in groups. After a few minutes, I will ask the group leader to report their answers. This part is designed to know the Ss’ view on friendship. It is also a preparation for the survey of next stage. If the time permitted, I will ask the Ss to write their answers on the blackboard. Names S1 Questions A.Are you good at making friends? B.Do you friends? have S2 S3 C.What are the special qualities of your best friend? D.What do you want from a friend? (2) Let the Ss fill in the survey in the Ss book. Then I will analyze and give comments on students’ answers.
Purpose: So I will have an In-depth understanding of each student’s attitude
towards friends, and help Ss to examine themselves, to guide Ss to form the correct values and principle. Step 3 Pre-reading
Group discussion: divide the students in to groups to discuss the following questions.
1.Why do you needs friends? Make a list of reasons why friends are important to you?
2.What else can be our friends besides human beings?
3.Look at the title and skim the first paragraph of the text to find what Anne’s best friend is.
(1)For the first question, I will guide the Ss to use the mind-map to list why friends are important to us. This thinking process, which is very effective learning strategy, can open Ss mind at a large extent. Next, I will ask the Ss to discuss. At last, I will sim up the Ss opinions. My best friend Friends are Friends are often helps me Friends are good (2)For the second question, I will use the methods of brain storming. We play baseball (3)For the third question, I will ask the Ss to read the first paragraph quickly to find out who was Anne’s best friend. This question forms a transition between the pre-reading and the text. It introduce a important reading skill-skimming which, if well learned, could be very useful in saving time when looking for information in a text.
The purpose: is to begin to focus student’s attention on the main topic of the
reading passage. It prepares Ss to think critically about the topic and provide then with the opportunity to connect some aspect of the topic to their own lives.
