3. Task-teaching

1) Look and listen.

2) Listen and repeat.

Questions: When and where was Helen Keller born? She wrote a book about herself, didn't she? Did she go all over the world? Is she a model?

此环节让学生带着问题学习课文，为学习新的阅读材料理清思路，也有利于学生自主学习。

3) Answer the questions, and lead out new words. (born, herself, all over the world, model)

通过回答问题，进而引出新词、词组，以强化知识目标的达成。

4) Listen and repeat again, and underline the sentences with "could" and "couldn't". (Emphasize "could/can, couldn't/can't)

此环节的读、划Key words，有利于对重、难点知识的敲打。

5) Read two sentences "She couldn't see and she couldn't hear. She could also write."

4．Practice

1）Game: Encourage the students to say something about the topic. "As a small child, what could/couldn't you do?"
