Teaching procedures:

Step 1:Lead-in

Good morning everyone! First of all,lets appreciate two poems and pay attention to the tenses(ppt):

(1)If you were a teardrop; In my eye,

For fear of losing you, I would never cry.

And if the golden sun, Should cease to shine its light,

Just one smile from you ,Would make my whole world bright.

(2)How should we like it were stars to burn,

With a passion for us we could not return?

If equal affection cannot be,

Let the more loving one be me.

Were all stars to disappear or die,

I should learn to look at an empty sky,

And feel its total dark sublime,

Though this might take me a little time.

Step 2: Discovery

compare two sentences I mentioned and know the difference between a fact and a wish.Compare and find the difference, Is it a fact or a wish?

1)If it doesnt rain tomorrow,I would visit my teacher.(a fact)

2)If you were a teardrop; In my eye,for fear of losing you, I would never cry.

(a wish) Definition of the Subjunctive Mood.

Step 3: Summary and practice

In the following parts, Ss are required to summarize the grammatical rules of subjunctive mood by reading three groups of sentences given by the teacher. Then three different kinds of exercise are prepared for them to practice the rules they have reviewed

Task 1: Review subjunctive mood in if clause and do some practice

If I lived near school, I would go to school on foot every day.

If you had worked hard last month, you would have got satisfactory results in the monthly exam.

If you were to be free tomorrow, you would be happy.

Practice: Creating movie lines for the classic movie "Titanic"

Jack: Rose

1.If I  (not win) the ticket, I wouldn't have been on board. If I hadn't been on board, I  (not meet) you.

2.If I  (not meet) you, I  (not find) the love of my life. So winning that ticket was the luckiest thing that had happened to me. Rose: Jack

3.If we  (live), we should live a happy life.

4. If we both (live), nothing would separate us in the future.

5. If we both  (live) tomorrow, it would be the most unforgettable memory.

When I graduate, without teachers I would enjoy more freedom.

How I wish I were education minister.

How I wish I had not been so strict with you before.

How I wish I could stay here to teach you.
