Teaching Procedures：
Step Ⅰ.Greetings and Revision
Greet the whole class as usual.
T： In the last period, we learned some expressions to make requests, make offers, accept offers and refuse offers. Who can make
5、up a dialogue using them? OK, you two. Please come to the front to act it out.
(Two students begin to act. After that, the teacher says the following.)
T： Thank you for your wonderful performance. Please go back to your seats.
Step Ⅱ.Pre-reading
T： As we all know, we can communicate not just by
6、words but also by our expressions and body movements. But the same gestures in different countries have different meanings. For example, nodding the head means agreement in our country, while in some Asian countries it means disagreement. If you want to learn more about body language, please read th
7、e passage “Body Talk” on Page 47 carefully. Before reading, well learn the new words and phrases in this period.
(Let the Ss read the words and phrases after the tape. The teacher can give a brief introduction to the Ss if necessary.)
T: Now look at the three questions on the screen and discuss th
8、em in groups of four.
(The teacher uses the multimedia to show the questions on the screen.)
1. Can you guess what someone is thinking or feeling by looking at their body language?
2. Do people from different parts of the world use different body language? What about people who live in different
9、parts of China?
3. How do you communicate the following with body language? Thank you! No. Yes. I dont know. Come here!
(The teacher gives the students three minutes to discuss and then asks some students to answer them.)
T: (Three minutes later.)Have you finished?
Ss: Yes.
T: OK. Whod like to
10、 answer the first question?
S1: Let me try. I can guess what someone is thinking or feeling by looking at their body language. For example, when I see someone holding their nose, I can see they are smelling something terrible.
T: Very good. Lets go on. The second question. Any volunteer?
S2: Ill
11、try. I think people from different parts of the world and from different parts of China use the same body language. For example, waving ones hand is to say “Goodbye” in both our country and foreign countries.
S3: I dont agree with S2.I think different countries have different body language. For exa
12、mple, men in Russia, France and Arab countries kiss each other when they meet, while men in China or Australia shake hands instead of kissing. People in different parts of China almost have the same body language.
(As to the third question, the teacher can ask some students to give performances bef
13、ore the class.)
Step Ⅲ.Reading
T: OK. Youve known something about body language. Now we are going to read a passage “Body Talk”,from which we will learn more about body language. Open your books at Page 47.Read the passage quickly and summarize the main idea of each paragraph.
(After a while, the
14、 teacher checks their understanding.)
T: Now whod like to tell me the main idea of the first paragraph?
S4: Paragraph 1.We communicate with people not only by words but also by body language.
T: Yeah. Right. The second paragraph?
S5: Paragraph 2.Body language varies from culture to culture.
S6:
15、 Paragraph 3.The same body language has different meanings in some different countries.
S7: Paragraph 4.Some gestures are universal.
S8: Paragraph 5.Smile is the best example of universally understood body language.
(Write the main idea of each paragraph on the blackboard.)
T: Quite right. We ha
16、ve known the main idea of each paragraph. Now read the passage again and answer the questions on the screen. This time you should read slowly and carefully.
(Show the following questions on the screen.)
1. Do people express their thoughts and opinions and communicate with others only by words? W
17、hat other ways can be used?
2. In what countries does “shaking ones head” mean “Yes”?
3. What are some situations where we need to be very careful about our body language and gestures?
4. How is body language different from spoken language? What do they have in common?
5. Sometimes we say one th
18、ing but our body language says something different. Why does this happen? Can you think of any examples?
(The teacher gives the students another four minutes to read the passage and then asks some students to answer those questions.)
Suggested answers:
1. No, not just by words. We communicate wi
19、th others also by our expressions and body movements.
2.In Bulgaria, parts of Greece, and Iran,“shaking ones head” means “Yes”.
3. Just like spoken language, body language varies from culture to culture. Making eye contact—looking directly into someones eyes in some countries is a way to show that
20、 one is interested; in other countries, however, eye contact is rude or disrespectful. So we need to be very careful about our body language and gestures.
4. We use both spoken language and body language to express our thoughts and opinions and to communicate with other people. We can directly know
21、 what they are really saying by words. But when we want to express our complex thoughts, opinions and views, body language cant express them correctly.
5. Because body language varies from culture to culture. For example, for “OK”,making a circle with ones thumb and index finger, has different mean
22、ings in different cultures. In Japan, someone who sees another person making the gesture will think it means money. In France, a person seeing the same gesture will think it means zero. In Brazil and Germany, however, the gesture is rude.
Step Ⅳ.Language Study
T: OK. You are familiar with the pass
23、age. But you should also pay attention to some useful expressions. Lets look at their usages. (Show the following on the screen.)
1. The weather varies from place to place.
2. He stood there, folding his arms.
3. He has got through the driving test.
4. They are tearing down that old building and
24、 a dangerous wall.
5. He is feeling down after losing the game.
(Bb: vary, fold ones arm, get through, tear down, feel down)
(The teacher asks some students to translate these sentences into Chinese. At the same time, the teacher explains the underlined phrases.)
Step Ⅴ.Listening and Consolidat
25、ion
T: Now look at your books. Ill play the tape. Listen carefully. You can follow it in a low voice. Pay attention to the stress and intonation.
(After that, the teacher says the following.)
T: From the text, we know people can use body language to communicate, but some body language is differen
26、t in different countries, that is to say, when we want to express the same meaning, people in different countries use different body language. Look at the chart in Pages 47~48.Work in pairs or in groups. First have a discussion. Then complete the chart. In the end, Ill check the answers.
(The teach
27、er first asks the students to do the exercise orally and then shows the answers on the screen.)
Step Ⅵ.Summary and Homework
T: In this class, weve read a passage about body talk, and learned some body language. We have also known that not all the body language means the same thing in different cou
28、ntries. Different people have different ways of making communication through body language. After class, read the passage again and again till you can recite it. Whats more, dont forget to preview “Word Study” and “Grammar” Draw at least 10 gestures and write out their meanings in your exercise book
29、s. And then explain each of them to your partners. Thats all for today. Class is over.
