Explain
6、the suffix “-ful”(1) Ask students to find the similarity between careful and helpful. (-ful means full of or having the qualities of).(2) Give more examples, such as: Do you think English is useful? Surely its useful.(3) Encourage students to think of more examples. (colourful, harmful, thankful )2.
7、 Explain the suffix “-less”Tell students that less means without. The two words with -ful and -less are usually opposite.3. Ask students to learn the table on P39【设计意图】引导学生自我探究、举一反三、触类旁通，发现列举形容词的共同点，并发现更多类似的词，启发引导学生回忆含有此类构词法的词汇。用归纳法教学组织引导学生自我发现语法规则，学生自己归纳出规则能够有效增强自信心和自主性。Step 3 Practice1. See and ma

10、置 noisy, 让学生推断并不是所有的形容词都是加-ful 或者-less。Step 4 Activities1. One student says one adjective, other students say its opposite as quickly as they can.2. Make up a story with five adjectives and their opposites on page 39 in groups.3. ChallengeEach group can choose a level and get the points.【设计意图】遵循任务梯度性原则，设计任务做到由易到难，由浅入深，让所有学生都能理解和掌握构词法。设计时以学生已有的知识经验和学习能力为基础，通过小组合作学习，学生的口语表达和交际能力也会有不同程度的改善或提高。V. Homework1.
