Personal background：How we have changed
Analysis of the Teaching Material
Analysis of Learners
学生对于外貌介绍的话题并不陌生，尤其是九年级的学生正在经历青春期，对于这个阶段自身的变化更是十分关注。七年级下册的Unit 9以描述人的外貌为话题展开，引导学生通过不同角度（发型、身材、脸部特征等）来描述人的外貌，并通过阅读语篇让学生真切地感受到外貌描述在生活中的实际用途，同时也训练了学生通过阅读进行思维构图的能力。九年级Unit 4的话题涉及谈论过去和现在在性格、外貌、特点、爱好和人物行为习惯上的对比等，可以指导学生借此学习用used to来表述过去经历和习惯的语言结构。同时，也向学生传递了关注自我发展和自我完善的重要性。
Learning Objectives

◆describe people's looks in different aspects；
◆talk about what people used to be like with used to；
◆tell the changes of their friends，stars and family；
◆compare their present situations with the past situations and treat their own growth and changes correctly.
Teaching Focuses&Learning Difficulties
◆Teaching focuses：T offers different activities in different situations like changes in appearance，personality and hobbies，which can guide Ss to get the information about the changes in their friends，family and themselves.
◆Learning difficulties：Ss may find it difficult to output the writing about changes in themselves.So different multi-modal activities like talking time，listening time and reading time can help them to output the writing with enough scaffolding.
