Step V Appreciation

Show some pictures of Stonehenge.

What do you think of Stonehenge? (students maybe say that it is wonderful, beautiful, mysterious, etc.) Teachers should point out the fact:

Construction took place in three phases, over 25 generations. Most of it was the result of human muscle and a system of ropes and wooden levers used to transport the massive stones. To drag the sarsen stones, weighing up to 45 tones, or the weight of six elephants, from Marlborough Downs, 30 kilometres to the south of Stonehenge, would have been quite a feat. The bluestones, in contrast, were about four tones but are believed to have come from much farther -- the Preseli Mountains nearly 385 kilometres away. Popular theory suggests the stones were rolled to the Welsh shore, carried on raft around the coast and into the River Avon, at Bristol. They would have then been transported through local rivers and then back to land, where they were once again rolled to Salisbury Plain. Then draw a conclusion:

Step VI. Discussion

1. Why was the Stonehenge built or the purpose of the construction? The main theories of the purpose existed and accepted in the world today: Execution ground(刑场) space station（宇宙太空港）

Hunting ground（狩猎场） an astronomical calendar（天文历法仪） temple（宗教寺庙）

2. Suppose your hometown found an ancient grave, and some people suggest digging it up, while others have different opinions. Please make up a dialogue with your partner, express your idea.

Step VII. Consolidation

In this class, we’ve learnt about the King of Stonehenge by reading the passage and also learnt some useful expressions and sentence patterns. After class, you need to do more exercises to master them freely. Studying archaeological discoveries can help us learn about he life of people during different periods, so if you have time, go to visit the local museums or surf the Internet to learn more about archaeology. At last, don’t forget to prepare for the next period----language study. So much for today.

Period 4 Language Study
