教材内容分析

The teaching material is from Junior Middle School English Book for Grade Nine, Unit 2 I think that mooncakes are delicious！

This module mainly talks about festivals, the topic of which is close to the students' real life and thus easy for students to communicate in English. Through language learning and activities, students learn to use the object clauses and exclamatory sentences to talk about their preferences and views on various festivals. Object clauses and exclamatory sentences are important language structures that junior middle school students need to master. Mastering the sentence structures will enrich students' language expressions and improve their communicative skills, and then build upon their foundation skills for the next stage of learning.

After learning this unit, students can enrich their knowledge of stories and details of different festivals, such as the Mid-autumn Festival. At the same time, students should have positive attitudes to different festivals between Chinese and western culture. When I designed this unit, I made some revisions. I arranged six parts in this unit.
