Objective 學習目標

Our objective at Mensheng is to deliver educational materials in an interactive and fun way instead of the traditional way of English teaching from textbooks. In our English Village, students will be able to practice their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills through the English Village themes we have created, and accumulate their confidence towards English learning; ultimately, allowing the students to speak adequate English towards English speakers.

落實「聽、說、讀、寫」兼顧齊備的英語文教學,並能營造全英文教學的學習環境,讓英文聽力、口說能力,能夠透過在英語教室的互動學習方式,逐漸累積英文實力,跳脫教科書的框架,以主題課程,開啟英語學習新的視野,活化英語教學的現況,培養學生英文能力時能達到聽得懂、自信說的目標。

The World: Continents, Countries and Trade

The topic for this semester’s English Village at Minsheng Elementary School is ‘The World: Continents, Countries and Trade’. Students will learn about the continents of the world; North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia and Antarctica. They will explore the famous features of these continents, such as famous foods, places, rivers, mountains and more. We will then look at some of the countries from these continents and discover how trade between countries links the world together. Finally, the students will have the opportunity to experience how trade works by playing the ‘Trade Game’.

The main vocabulary and sentence patterns that will be used in the lesson are as follows:

· The names of the continents (North America, South America, Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, Antarctica).

· Some countries of the World, including: USA, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, UK, Germany, France, Netherlands, Nigeria, Egypt, South Africa, India, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Australia.

· Place, food, river, mountain, city, animal.

· I want to buy / I want to sell

· Where is it from?

We will present the lesson assuming no prior knowledge of the vocabulary and sentence patterns, it is not necessary for the students to learn these vocabulary and sentence patterns prior to the lesson.

However, if time permits, it would be great if the students visiting English Village are familiar with the names of the continents and the terms; place, food, river, mountain, city, animal, famous.

This lesson is designed to be fun and motivating for students, they will have the opportunity to use the English they know in whole class and group activities. Students will play games, watch video clips, use tablet computers for investigations and engage in hands-on activities designed to help them to learn, think and speak in English.
