And then answer the following questions together.

　　T: Suppose you are going to form your own band. Have a discussion in a group of four.

　　How should you form your own band?

　　(1) What's your band's name?

　　(2) What kind of band will you be? For example, will you be a rock band or a country style band?

　　(3) Who is the lead singer? Who will play which instrument (guitar, drum, piano, violin and saxophone)?

　　(4) Where to play?

　　(5) How to make your band famous?

　　(Justification: After reading the reading parts the students will know something about having a band, and they can open their mind. The discussion can help them think about the idea of making a band more deeply.)

　　Step 3 While-writing (15 minutes)

　　(1) Drafting

　　Then set a situation that they can write to their friends to express ideas of making a band and the above discussions will be helpful for their writing. Ask students to write a draft.

　　(2) Peer editing

　　After the drafting, ask students to check their articles with deskmates. They should read the passage and check the ideas or the logical development. Also, check carefully the grammar, spelling and punctuation of their writings.

　　(Justification: In this part, they can write down their own ideas about the band and they can also learn from each other.)

　　Step 4 Post-writing (10 minutes)

　　Ask several students to read their passages and then give some evaluations from the advantages and disadvantages. Then ask students to revise their articles according to the evaluations.

　　(Justification: This is also a very important part for my students, they can know where their mistakes are and

　　they can get to know how to check it after the teacher's evaluation. It's a good chance to open their minds to the teacher and their writing skills can be improved.)

　　Step 5 Summary and Homework (5 minutes)

　　Summary: Ask students about what they have learned today.

　　Homework: Ask students to go on to revise the writing according to the evaluations and search the Internet for more information about music. Ask them to choose an English song for their band to perform next class.

　　(Justification: After this, students can learn more about music and express their feelings on music with friends.)
