The topic of Unit 3 is Family Life. “Reading” mainly focuses on describing family life in details while “More Practice” talks about suggestions on how to communicate with parents. The article in “More Practice” plays a role as supplementary reading in this unit. It inspires students on how to have better communication with parents and happier family life after “Reading”.
What’s more, based on the above discourse analysis, this article is a typical work of exposition. Students have already learned an exposition about giant pandas in Unit 5 Reading, Grade 8. This article can help students review the characteristics and special ways of writing an exposition. It provides a good example of how to write an exposition.
I will include the discourse knowledge in my lesson in order to help students master the writing of an exposition, because the features are the most explicit features of the article and the most practical in writing a piece of exposition. Following the example in More Practice and discovering the rules by themselves, students will be able to learn how to compose an exposition using the structure, connectives etc. in their writing.
