Teaching procedures:

Step 1 Warming up

1. Begin the class by showing some pictures of serious environmental problems.

What’s the biggest problem facing the earth? Why do you think so?

What causes the problem?

What can we do solve the problem? Leaders from different countries can hold a meeting and discuss how to save the earth.

Step 2 Lead in

The Earth Summit is going to be held in Johannesburg in South Africa. As Chinese journalists, all of us are invited to report this important summit.

Step 3 Skimming

Before going there, we should know some information about the Earth Summit. Do you anything about it? .

It was first held in Stockholm in 1972.Representatives discussed some of the most important problems facing our planet. Much progress has been made.

Step 4 Scanning

1. Listen to Para 1 and find one of the main themes of the summit.

Sustainable development

1)The Big Three -- Contaminated drinking water 7,000,000

Poor sanitation 1,200,000,000

Air pollution 3,000,000

2) Poverty, War, Violence

What’s the present problem with the global development?

Richer people get richer while the poor get poorer.

What should people do to solve this problem?

Rich countries have a responsibility towards poor countries and must do whatever they can to help others.

3. What’s purpose of the Earth Summit?

It helps people understand that there exist serious problems and that there is still time to take action.

Step 5 Future Discussion

Task 1 Interview

Four Ss get a group. Three of the members are experts at the Earth Summit. One is a journalist who is interviewing them about the way to solve the big three. You may start like this:

“Dear experts, I’m a journalist from Chinese. I’d like to know…”

Task 2 Creative Thinking

A visitor to the Earth Summit said that, “When I listened to the speakers, I realised that

many of the things I do every day are bad for the environment…”Did you do anything bad for the environment? What will do to protect the environment?

Task 3 Debate

As we know the Earth Summit is a place to find solutions for the future. Some people say that money can solve all problems, but some say knowledge. Which one do you agree? Money or Knowledge? Ss will be divided into two groups. See which group can win the debate.

Step 6 Conclusion

If we want to get knowledge, we must have better education. With better education, people will be able to build a better society in harmony with nature. With better education, much of the poverty can be wiped out. With better education, we will see less violence and fewer wars.

The Third Period Speaking

Goals:

1. Make the Ss learn some useful words and expressions.

2. Further develop students’ speaking abilities.

3. Arouse the Ss to take better care of the earth.

Teaching procedures:

Step 1 Revision

We have known much about pollution around. What are the problems we are facing? Which one do you think is the most important? Why?

Group 1: The lack of safe and clean water.

More than 1.2 billion people lack access to clean and safe water

Providing safe and clean drinking water would save money by freeing hospital beds from patients with disease caused by dirty water.

12 percent of the world’s population uses 85 percent of its water, and these 12percent live in developed countries.

Group 2: Air pollution

Air pollution causes more than 2.7 million deaths in the world every year.

Most air pollution is caused by the burning of fuels like coal, gas and oil.

Each year tens of thousands of people die as a result of breathing polluted air.

Air pollution causes other diseases and may make it easier for children to get sick in the future.

Group 3: Poor sanitation

Over 2.4 billion people have no access to sanitation.

Every day, as many as half of all the people on the earth suffer from one of the many diseases caused by poor sanitation.

Without proper sanitation, efforts to improve health care are useless.

Group 4: Poverty

Half the world lives on less than two dollars a day.1.3 billion people live on less than one dollar a day.

In the year 2000, some 1.7 million children died as a result of poverty.

Almost 800 million people on the world do not have enough to eat.

Step 2 Speaking

1. As we know, coal is a valuable resource to produce energy, but it can also cause serious pollution. We will attend a meeting and discuss the issue.

2. Four Ss get a group. You are citizen, businessman, scientist and environmentalist.

Citizen: We must burn the coal so that we can get money to develop our area as soon as possible, because…

Businessman: We should burn the coal because…

Scientist: We should spend more money on science so that we can use the coal in a better way, because…

Environmentalist: We shouldn’t burn the coal because…

3. As a local leader in this area, summarize and help the speakers decide.

4. Ask the Ss use these useful expressions:

We must make sure that… It’s clear that…

I believe that we must… I’m all for…

If nothing is done…, then… I can’t imagine that…

Sure/ certainly / absolutely It would be better if we…

Is there a better way to…?

Step 3 Conclusion

We human beings should take good care of our planet, because it is the only place we can survive. Love the earth, love ourselves.
