教学设计:Lesson19 The Best Neighbourhood
一 、教材分析:
本课是冀教版2011课标板八年级上册第四单元的第一课。第四单元围绕着“My Neighbourhood”这一话题展开内容进行编排。这一课以一段简短的对话展现了课文内容,对话发生在两名少年之间,描述了他们彼此理想中“the best neighbourhood”并各自说明了原因,需一个课时便可完成。本文的话题就是现实生活的一部分,很容易吸引学生的注意,激发学习的兴趣,引发共鸣。本文主要通过引导学生描述自己理想中完美社区的建筑和设施,探讨原因,使学生识记掌握与 “neighbourhood”相关的单词、短语以及描述、讨论社区的句型,能运用它们向他人介绍自己的理想社区,且能自如地运用“because”原因状语从句表明原因,及“so”引导地并列句阐述结果。在此基础上培养学生自主学习和独立运用所学语言进行表达的能力。
二、学情分析:
八年级的学生处于13、14岁之间,形象思维能力活跃好奇
心强,乐于表现,勇于用学到的英语与人交流,乐于表现自己。
他们既有探知未知只是浓厚兴趣,又有较强的记忆能力与模仿能
力,这为学习英语提供了生理和心理两大基础条件。但是经过一
年多初中英语的强化学习,两级分化现象日趋严重,班上的很多
学生缺乏学习英语的自信,对英语学习不感兴趣,更不敢张嘴说。
针对整班学生基础差,英语技能薄弱且班额大,不容易调动积极
性等特点,我计划以学生的平均水平为基础,注重创设语言环境,
吸引他们的注意力,激发学习兴趣,在教授知识的过程中,提高
听、说、读、写的能力。
