T: Hello, everyone! Today we’ll come to Unit 4 Astronomy. Before that I have a
question: Where do we come from? Or we can say: Who are our ancestors? S1: Monkeys!
S2: Beijing Ren who lived many years ago. S3: Reptiles. S4: Mammals. S5: Amphibians. S6: Dinosaurs.
T: Very good! Can you put them in right order?
S7: Amphibians, Reptiles, Dinosaurs, Mammals, Beijing Ren. T: Do you know what it was like before life appeared on earth? S8: It was full of water, perhaps. T: Before that, what was it like? S9: Sorry, I don’t know.
T: Do you want to get more information? Today we’ll learn something about How Life Began on the Earth. Turn to Page 25. Let’s come to Warming up first. Step II Warming up
1. Read the three questions, while the students listen and follow. 2. Give the Ss several minutes to discuss the questions. 3. Collect answers from the whole class. 4. Check the answers while discussing.
T: I’ll read the three questions for you. You should listen to me carefully. (If students don’t know how to discuss, show them an example.) For example, medicine. When someone gets serious illness, he will go to the hospital. The doctor will examine him. He will take his temperature, measure his blood pressure and give him an X-ray, or a CT. For the whole process of the examination, what kind of science has been used? S1: Biology. S2: Chemistry.
T: So we can say medicine combines biology and chemistry. What about biochemistry and geophysics?
S3: I think biochemistry combines biology and chemistry.
S4: Geophysics combines geology and physics. T: What about astronomy? S5: Physics. S6: Mathematics.
T: Very good. We should know that astronomy is a multidisciplinary subject and if we want to do some research on it, we should know many science subjects related to it. Now discuss the second question:
What do we mean when we say we are studying a subject scientifically? Or what’s the correct attitude towards science?
S7: We should be objective, not superstitious. T: What’s the correct way to prove a scientific idea? S8: We should design experiments to test it for several times. S9: Then we can analyze the results and draw a conclusion at last.
T: Let’s sum up the answers. To study a subject scientifically, we must try to be objective. In order to test our idea, we should design experiments, then analyze the results and draw a conclusion. Now let’s talk about the third question. What are the most important skills we need to be real scientists? S10: We should be very careful. S11: Be objective and logical.
S12: We should be wise enough to design an experiment and write the reports clearly. S13: We should be able to draw conclusions from the experiments and not impose conclusions on the data.
T: I think you have done great work. From the discussion we know that it’s not easy to be a scientist. So you should work harder if you want to be a scientist. Step Ⅲ Pre-reading
Get the Ss to discuss the questions on Page 25 with their partners. Then ask the Ss to tell their stories. Encourage the Ss to tell different stories. If they don’t know any, tell them some.
T: Now please look at the slide show. And discuss these questions with your partners. Then I’ll ask some students to tell us their stories. Are you clear?
