Step Ⅰ Greetings

T:In the last period,we’ve talked about some educators and education in China and America.Today we’ll learn more about education.First,please look at the picture on the screen.

(Show the picture on the screen.)

T:Have you ever seen this picture before?Ss:Yes.

T:Who can tell us something about it?

S:This picture is used to encourage people to help poor children who can’t afford to go to school to receive education,and help build more schools for them.

T:Right.We know that many children like this girl can’t go to school in China.But do you know why?You can have a short discussion in pairs and then I’ll ask some of you to report to the class.Look at the questions on the screen.They may help you.

(Show the following on the screen.)

1.Look around your school and think of all the equipment,people and plans that are needed to run a school. 2.What arrangements does the government have to make to provide education for children in China?Can you think of any problems or difficulties it may face? (A few minutes later,ask some students to report their answers.)T:Who’d like to have a try?

S:Let me try.In order to run a school,we need many things,such as buildings,desks,chairs and many kinds of equipment.We also need teachers and workers.Our government has to provide money to build buildings,buy equipment and pay for the teachers and workers.That will need a lot of money.In some places,the governments are too poor to run enough schools for all the children to go to school.

T:Very good.But is this the only factor?Who can think of other problems or difficulties?

S:I think sometimes people have wrong attitude towards education.They don’t want to take their children away from their work on the farm.In some places,people are particularly unwilling to send their daughters to school because the girls are treated unequally.Girls are still looked down upon in some places.

T:That’s quite true.Please sit down.Who has anything different to tell us?

S:Let me have a try.In some remote places,it’s hard to get enough good teachers for their students,usually because of the inconvenience and low living standard.

T:As we all know,education is very important to the future of our country.So our country is trying hard to solve these problems.(Show a picture of a Hope Project School)
