The fist period of the reading teaching

Ⅰ. Lead-into

The teacher can lead the Ss into the topic of the text by talking about the weather as follows:

T: What’s the weather like today?

S: It’s sunny(or: rainy/windy---)

T: Is the weather nice or bad?

S: (Suppose today’s weather is sunny. The Ss will answer like this.) Very nice.

T: En, nice, very nice. But the weather is not always nice, sometimes there is a lot of bad or even terrible weather. We can call the bad or even terrible weather “natural disaster”. Do you know “disaster”?

S: Yes, we do. It means “灾害”in Chinese.

T: Good. Can you speak out the names of some disastrous [di΄zα:strəs](灾难性的)weather in the last module—Module 3 The Violence of Nature?

S: Yes. Such as flood, hurricane, lightning and tornado.

T: Oh, it’s wonderful! And in this module—Module 4, we’ll continue to learn about another disastrous weather named sandstorms. Let’s go!

Ⅱ. Open discussion before reading

The teacher can design a discussion question like this:

Have you ever been in a sandstorm? / Have you ever experienced a sandstorm? If yes, describe it to us. If not, please imagine what it will be like.

Ⅲ. Show the Ss some pictures below to ask them to recognize which one refers to sandstorms. And say why.

Ⅳ. Fast reading

This teaching step can be designed as follows:

1.T: If we want to learn more about sandstorms. Let’s get close to them. Now please read the text quickly with the tape of it and try to find out the answers to the following 3 questions:

1) What’s a sandstorm?

(A possible key: Sandstorms are strong, dry winds that carry sand)

2) Where in the world are the main four sandstorm places/areas? And how about in China?

(A possible key: Central Asia, North America, Central Asia & Australia. Northwest China)

3) What’s the weather experts’ advice when a sandstorm comes?

(A possible key: They advise us not to go out. If we have to , we’d better wear a mask.)

2.In order to help the Ss (to) read the text better, the teacher can ask the Ss to finish Activity 2 at Page 33.

Ⅴ. Careful reading

T: This time you should read the text very carefully. Then finish the following 3 activities designed by myself
