3. Show some movie posters and ask What kind of movies are they? The students classify them and then check the answers. Call the students’ attention to the plural forms of the kinds of movies.

导入时不可能每次都逢Saturday is coming，我们还可以用Which day do you like best in a week? / What day is your favorite in a week?等引出话题。学生按类别为影片归类时，我们事先将影片标上字母序号，就可以避免中文出现在英语课堂之上了。在这一活动过程中，我们要即时地板书目标句式与单词复数形式。

Step Two　 Listening

2. Tell the students I want to see movies at home on Saturday. Look, these are my favourite movies. And then show the VCDs. Hold one of them and ask What kind of movies is it? Repeat with the others.

1. Ask What day is it today / tomorrow? And say Saturday is coming. What do you want to do on Saturday? Collect the answers.

4. Get some pairs show their conversations in class.

第一个对话活动中，给出对话的大体格式，既是保证学生在对话过程中高频度地使用目标语，又是从学生的实际学习能力出发，恰当地设置活动难度，使学生能在语言学习中获得成功感，提高学习的激情。

在我们对话中增加了Why do you want to see a / an …? Because…这一问答，其目的在于培养与训练学生的自主语言表达能力，鼓励学生创造性地使用语言。然而，在语言的初学阶段，学生虽然掌握了一定的词汇与句式，但他们的组词成句能力还是薄弱的，需要我们提供一定的导引。所以，我们给出了许多的例句，让学生参考、仿照，以此帮助学生提高其语言综合运用能力。

第二个对话活动只提供给学生几个关键词，目的在于，让学生完全自主地运用目标语，并结合旧学的语言结构展开语言活动，强调对学生语用能力的培养。

Period II

Step One　 Lead-in

3. Tell the students it is on weekend now. They want to have a good holiday with their friends. Students are asked to make a conversation on holiday with the words want, don’t, movie, let’s, like, because in pairs.　

2. Get some pairs show their conversations in class.

1. Students work in pairs to make conversations as the model below, supposing they are the boy and the girl in the picture. Encourage the students to show different opinions.

A: Do you want to see a / an…?

B: Yes, I do./ No, I don’t. I want to see…

A: Why do you want to see a / an …?

B: Because I think love is great.

…It can make me happy / brave.

…I like Jack Chan. He’s a great actor. I like his movies.

…I can learn a lot from the movie.

…I like heros. …I like funny　 / terrible / love stories.

2. Each group makes a chain conversation, using the conversation in activity 1c as a model. The students have to choose different kinds of movies to answer the questions. The group that uses the least time is the winner.

Step Six　 Pairwork

1. Read through the conversation in activity 1c.

4. Students read the conversation after the tape. And then ask some pairs to act it out.

教师设问What do the boy and the girl talk about?能帮助学生在听前了解对话的主题，并能使其在听的过程中更有效地锁定目标信息。学生仿读听力材料的过程也是学生熟悉语言结构与对话的过程，这就为下一步的语言活动做好了热身。
