【设计意图】
通过复习P69，2b，帮助学生熟悉巩固有关发出邀请、接受邀请和拒绝邀请的信函内容；通过短文填空练习，帮助学生用所学知识在大脑里进行加工整理和复现，同时也加深了语篇和行文概念。
Step 2：Reading
1st-reading：要求学生快速阅读3a，回答问题。
2nd-reading：要求学生仔细阅读全文，并回答3a中的六个问题。
（1）Who is making the invitation?
_________________________________
（2）What is the invitation for?
_________________________________
（3）When will the event happen?
_________________________________
（4）What will happen after this?
_________________________________
（5）Do parents have to bring anything?
________________________________
（6）How should people reply to this invitation, and when
_______________________________________________________________
【设计意图】
这一环节是对学生进行阅读理解的训练，逐步提升学生的阅读水平。学生通过Skimming（略读），Scanning（找读），逐步了解掌握邀请信函的内容；3a是一个写作练习模板，该活动通过回答问题，让学生整体把握邀请函的格式、内容等，并复习相关短语，为后面的写作做准备。
Step 3：Writing
首先，让学生阅读一些写作范例。其次，要求学生阅读71页3b题目要求，小组讨论明确题意。然后，学生先各自根据3a以及之前积累的相关知识完成邀请函。最后，让学生在小组内交换自己的邀请函并答复同伴的邀请函。

4. Hi Mike,
Thanks for asking me to your home, but I’m sorry I can’t visit you next Saturday. I’ll be busy that day. In the morning, I have to do my homework. In the afternoon, I am having soccer training with the school team. In the evening, I’m going to the movies with my friends. There is a new movie. I can’t miss it. Can you watch it with us next Saturday evening?
Write soon.

【设计意图】
这是一个模仿性写作训练模块，让学生在听、说、读的基础上，尝试简单的语言输出。3b重点训练邀请函的书写格式，以及礼貌地接受邀请或拒绝邀请。英语写作是学生综合运用英语能力的一种重要体现，它既能体现学生对英语基础知识的掌握情况，又能反映学生运用英语语言能力的熟练程度，是一种基础和能力的结合物。给学生提供能引起学生共鸣的阅读材料来启发写前思维，使学生能够自然地挖掘真实情感，将注意力由完成写作任务转移为情感共鸣，有思维写作的冲动，进而促进写作话题和写作观点的形成。
Homework
1. 背诵3a中的短文。
2. 整理一下自己课堂上所写的邀请信及答复信，进行修改，然后写在作业本上。
