文章主角Oliver看到寵物店裡的狗，覺得非常可愛，回家詢問過媽媽意見，媽媽也同意，因此偕同媽媽準備去寵物店挑選一隻狗，在路上看到一隻流浪狗，便決定領養它，以領養代替購買，以下為我的教學步驟。
教學步驟：
Pre-task：請學生思考，在你飼養寵物之前，你該考量什麼?。提供time、
space、money、knowledge of keeping a dog、the size of the dog、family agreement這幾個選項讓學生討論，各組討論三個最需要考量的理由並解釋原因。
Main-task 1：預測課文，請學生看著課本的圖片，使用本課所學的生字來預測課文的發展，為了讓學生能順利預測課文，老師詢問以下問題:
1. What was the boy looking at?
2. Where were these puppies?
3. Did the boy want to keep a dog?
4. What might his mom say?
5. What did the boy see near the pipe?
6. How was the puppy?
7. What did the boy need to do if he adopted the puppy?
Main-task 2：觀看課文影片後，完成閱讀測驗，分成兩種類型的測驗:封閉式的選擇題和開放性的問答題，使用Nearpod的quiz和open-ended question功能來測驗學生的閱讀理解程度，問題呈列如下:
(選擇題)
1. What did Oliver see on his way home?
2. Why did Oliver want to keep a dog?
3. What did Oliver’s mom worry about if Oliver want to keep a dog?
4. Did Oliver’s mom agree to keep a dog?
5. How many days did Oliver need to wait to adopt the dog?
(問答題)
1. Describe the dog that Oliver want to keep.
2. What would Oliver do if he adopted the dog?
Post-task：Will Oliver be a good owner? 課文中沒有將Oliver的實際情況講明白，例如他的上課時間和居住環境等，我將這些細節詳細敘述，讓學生依據pre-task時我們所討論的養狗注意須知，來判斷Oliver是否能當個好飼主，學生在分析過後，需要寫下三個理由來支持他們的論點。
教學心得：
1. 此次的課程設計只設計了四個教學活動，並不是懶惰，而是發現需要思考和分享的教學活動，其實需要花不少時間，雖然我只設計了四個活動，但會需要學生用到聽說讀寫的能力，符合新課綱的B2素養。
2. 我覺得這樣的課程是進行生命教育的一個很好的時機，生命教育所包含的內容很廣泛，我在此次課程中我想要告訴學生的是，面對生命我們要尊重且負責，因此不是你喜歡或覺得可愛，就可以毫無理性，能不能把寵物照顧好是需要條件的，因此在決定飼養前都要謹慎評估，才是對生命最大的尊重。
Title of the Lesson: Hanlin B6 U3 Keeping a Dog
APP: Nearpod
Teaching Time: 90 mins
Teaching Procedure:
Pre-task:
1. T asks Ss to think about what they need to consider when keeping a dog.
2. T provides with several options for Ss to talk with their group members. For example, owners need to think about time, space, money, knowledge of keeping a dog, the size of the dog and family agreement. Each group has to choose three options and explain the reasons.
Main task 1:
1. Ss predict the story. T asks Ss to look at the pictures and use the vocabularies to tell the story.
2. In order to help students predict the story, T can ask following questions.
(1) What was the boy looking at?
(2) Where were these puppies?
(3) Did the boy want to keep a dog?
(4) What might his mom say?
(5) What did the boy see near the pipe?
(6) How was the puppy?
(7) What did the boy need to do if he adopted the puppy?
Main-task 2:
1. After the video, Ss are asked to finish the reading comprehension test. The test is divided into two parts: multiple choices and open-ended questions. T uses APP Nearpod to test Ss.
2. The questions of the test are as following.
☆Multiple Choices
(1) What did Oliver see on his way home?
(2) Why did Oliver want to keep a dog?
(3) What did Oliver’s mom worry about if Oliver want to keep a dog?
(4) Did Oliver’s mom agree to keep a dog?
(5) How many days did Oliver need to wait to adopt the dog?
☆Open-ended Question
(1) Describe the dog that Oliver want to keep.
(2) What would Oliver do if he adopted the dog?
Post-task:
1. In fact, the author doesn’t give the readers enough information about Oliver. For example, does Oliver have time to walk the dog? Does he know how to take care of the dog? Therefore, Ss need to discuss with their group members whether Oliver will be a good owner or not.
2. T gives Ss a worksheet about Oliver’s time schedule and personal information. Ss can decide if Oliver can be a good owner. After the discussion, Ss also need to write down three reasons to support their statement.
3. Ss share their ideas with other Ss.
Feedback:
1. I only designed four teaching activities for this lesson. I found it took a lot of time for Ss to think and share their ideas with other people. Ss can also use four skills to practice their English.
2. I think it’s a wonderful chance for teachers to carry on life education. What I tried to share with my students is that we must respect every single life. On the other hand, we must try our best to take the responsibility to take care of our pets. When it comes to keeping a pet, we need to be careful. Therefore, we need to think it through before acting.
