MATERIAL
Lesson 19 (taken from Junior English for China, Book 2)
Dialogue
Meimei: Are you holding the ladder, Jim?
Jim: Yes, I am. Please be careful, Meimei. Don’t go too high!
Meimei: Don’t worry. I’m OK.
Jim: There are some good apples over there.
Meimei: Where?
Jim: Behind you! Can you reach them?
Meimei: Oh, yes, I can see them. But I can’t reach them.
Jim: Be careful. It’s dangerous! You’re too high!
Meimei: No, I’m not. Good! I can reach them now. Catch!
Passage --- Working on a farm
It’s a fine day today, and everyone is busy. They are working hard on the farm. The children are picking apples. Look! There’s Meimei! She’s very strong. She’s lifting that ladder. Now she’s holding it for Jim. Jim is climbing up the ladder. He’s picking the apples on that tree. He’s putting them in a basket. Some of the apples are hard to reach. They are too high. Be careful, Jim! It’s dangerous. Oh, good! He’s coming down the ladder, now.
“You don’t have many apples, Jim,” says Li Lei. “I have more than you.”
“Do I have fewer apples than you? Let me see!” says Jim.
Jim looks at Li Lei’s apples. “Oh!” he says. “Yes, you have more than me. But mine are better than yours. Look! Yours are green, and quite small. Mine are red, and they’re much bigger!”

COMMENTS
Though the junior high school students are at the elementary level concerning their language proficiency, they still have a strong desire to communicate with others in English in their daily life. Teachers should employ proper teaching methods and techniques to satisfy their needs. Besides, since they are young beginners, they are in great need of instructions on how to be successful language learners. Teachers should train them with some effective learning strategies to optimize the students’ learning results. My lesson plan is designed on the basis of these two principles. Before reading the dialogue, the students are asked to look at the picture beside and to answer several questions. These questions are raised for the purpose of arousing the students’ interests and activating their schema. Besides the pre-reading questions, some comprehension questions are asked before they go on to read the dialogue and the passage as well. These questions are aimed to help the students to concentrate on the meaning conveyed through the reading material rather than on the grammar. On the other hand, these questions are intended to help them form the habit of reading with purpose in mind. As for the language points, they are presented and practiced with certain contexts and are related to students’ life as much as possible. This way of teaching language points is employed in the hope that students will find them easier to understand and retain, and that they can use some of them immediately in their everyday life. Then, the students are asked to read the dialogue and retell the passage respectively. Reading aloud is helpful for both the teacher and the students. The students can practice their pronunciation and intonation, while the teacher can have the opportunity to find their problems and correct them. Retelling is a solution to the problem of lacking chances to practice English outside class. This activity can train the students with this learning method. The teacher’s encouragement and facilitation are necessary to make the students feel the happiness of success, so that they may want to try more either in class or outside class in the future.
Generally speaking, the lesson went on quite smoothly. Since the answers to the comprehension questions were fairly obvious, the students seemed to have no difficulty with them. As for the practice of the language points, the students could respond fairly quickly with the help of pictures and prompts. Retelling the passage seemed difficult to students at elementary level. At first, the students doubted that they would be able to retell it. However, with the information on the blackboard and my help, the whole class managed to do it once. Unfortunately, because time was running out, I failed to let them practice in pairs and individually in class.
