Module 2 Unit 6 Bird-watching
Reading I
Zhalong-A special place
Analysis of teaching material
This unit is the second unit of Module 2 in Book A, Grade 8. The topic of this module is ‘Nature and the Environment’, which presents the relationship between Man and the nature. The unit 6 ‘birdwatching’ is prepared well by unit 5 in which students have learned some useful expressions close to nature and the environment.
The theme of this unit is ‘Birdwatching’ and it is mainly about the introduction of rare birds and Zhalong Nature Reserve. This reading lesson is the second period of the unit, and the reading text is mainly about Zhalong Nature Reserve, a special place for birds. The main teaching content is focused on having a better understanding of Zhalong and the protection for the environment. So the teacher doesn’t spend too much time dealing with the words in class and some activities in the book will be adjusted. In this lesson, the bottom-up reading model will be emphasized.By reading the text, students will have a better understanding of Zhalong and their awareness of protecting wildlife and the environment will be improved.
