3. The usage the conjections ‘but’, ‘and’ and ‘or’.
Analysis of students’ learning and teaching ideas:
This is a new teaching seesion and a practice seesion as well. I mainly show the language points and something difficult to understand in the passage. So in interpretation and demonstration, I will involve a certain number of exercises to consolidate what they are learning in class.
On the other hand, I think it will be a little hard for the students to select the adjectives or phrases which describe the feeling on a trip. So I should give them a hand to show which of adjectives can express the feelings on travelling.
While presenting the adjectives on the feelings on a trip, I will help the students to get the overall understanding of the passage.
Teaching preparation:
A recorder and some pictures.
