Teaching procedures:
Step 1: Lead in
Teacher plays the video clip from “Robinson Crusoe” and asks the students “Have you ever seen this film?”
“Who wrote the story?”
“Do you know something about Daniel Defoe?”
Teacher explains:
(About the author: Daniel Defoe, the son of a butcher, was born in London in 1660 and died in 1731.He attended Morton’s Academy, a school for Dissenters at Newington Green with the intension of becoming a minister, but he changed his mind and became a hosiery merchant instead. He was once a journalist and was employed by a Troy government official as a spy. And was sent to prison several times for his political works. He wrote many books all his life, among which Robinson Crusoe is the most famous one.)
From the passage we read in the previous lesson, we’ve known something about the British Isles, the United Kingdom and Ireland. Now we all know England is a good place to travel to. Today we will read a passage about Daniel Defoe’s visit to Salisbury in southern England. What did he see there? What places did he visit? Let’s read the passage and you will find the answers to the questions above.
Step 2: Reading
Ok, let’s see what Daniel Defoe writes about Salisbury. Read the passage and try to find the main idea of each paragraph.
Para.1: The landscape near the city.
Question: what did he see all round the city of Salisbury?
He saw six hundred thousand sheep fed within six miles of Salisbury.
(Teacher presents a video clip of sheep fed on the grass.)
Para.2: Historical relics around the city.
Question: Here in this paragraph Daniel Defoe gave us one example----the cathedral. What is the cathedral famous for? What does he think of it? The answer is the last sentence of this paragraph.
(Play the video and let the students enjoy it. While playing, the teacher explains it.
About the video: The video clip shows both the exterior and interior of the cathedral. Walking into the cathedral we get the chance to experience the typical scene of western church: music is playing and people praying in the church. )
Para.3 What we can see in the city.
(The teacher presents a picture of the location of Salisbury and illustrates it, especially the two rivers.)
Para.4: The people, their life, work and culture.
Question: What are the two important kinds of produce and trade?
How’s people’s life there?
Para.5: The wider landscape around the city.
(The teacher plays the video about the wider landscape around the city.
About the video: It shows small streets and people in the streets, the everyday life of the British people.)
Step 3 Extension
1. More to know about life in Britain: When talking about life in England, we just can’t miss one thing---pub. Pubs play an important part in people’s lives. It is a good place to meet friends and talk and drink beers. English villages are small and cozy. Lots of pubs can be found
with names like “The Red Lion”, “The Black Horse”, “The Rose and Crown”, “The King and Queen” and “The George and Dragon”. Lots of gorgeous food like pies, steaks, chips, big sandwiches, sausages and mash (potatoes!) and lots of different types of beer: bitter, lager (a light-colored beer), ale (a type of beer made from malt), etc!!!
(A video clip is presented about a pub.)
About football: Football is Britain’s national game. It was invented in Britain as far back as the 12th century, became an organized spectator sport in 19th century, and is now played in vast stadiums watched by tens of thousands of fervent supporters. Football is one of the few things that obsessed the British. And David Beckham is one of the most famous football stars. In the video we can see many college students playing football very early in the morning.
