Unit 8 When is your birthday
Section A 1a-2c 教学重难点
教材分析
内容分析:
本课是人教版七年级上册第八单元的内容。“When is your birthday ”是本单元的核心话题,谈论人的出生日期,主要学习序数词的构成以及运用序数词表示日期的方法,When引导的特殊疑问句询问日期以及名词所有格的构成和使用。 Section A是本单元的重点部分,也是核心教学内容,为口语练习课,主要学习日期的询问与表达;通过谈论自己、同学以及家人的生日,理解生日的更多含义。它上承第七单元的数字教学,下承Section B与以后有关日期的英语教学。因此,本部分是前后知识的载体,在本单元以及今后的英语学习中都占有重要的地位。由于本单元的主题是“生日”,与生活联系非常紧密,教师要充分开发课程资源,结合实际,尽量让学生参与到课堂中,发挥他们的积极性和主动性,力图使学生自己输入的语言与信息成为主要教学资源,并成为整个学习过程的中心,真正做到“在用中学,在学中用,学以致用”。
学情分析:
本单元的主题是询问和谈论日期,围绕这一主题进行一系列的交际活动,使学生掌握日期的表达法,正确使用 when引导的特殊疑问句对日期进行询问。在学习日期的表达法时是学生不仅要记忆较长的月份名词,还要运用刚学过的序数词。尽管上一单元学生学习了基数词,但是两者之间的发音和书写均不相同,学生掌握起来有一定的难度。这就要求教师在备课的时候要充分考虑学生的学情,多设梯度,降低难度。

教学反思
新目标英语Go for it 的教材选材非常贴近学生的生活实际。每学完一个单元学生就能用英语进行简单的交流。充分体现了学以致用的教学原则。学生已经从死背语法知识,机械模仿句型为主的学习方式过渡到“做中学”的活学活用阶段。学生的学习积极性大大提高,课堂气氛也更加活跃。课堂上把时间还给学生,让每个学生都动起来。学生通过讨论交流和合作方式展示他们丰富的想象力和创造力。教师应为学生创设宽松,和谐,民主的学习气氛,设计多种合作方式或活动内容,多思考导入的途径和技巧。这样让每个孩子都说话,每个任务都有话说。教学过程中教师能够注重学生自主学习和合作学习相结合,充分发挥了学生的学习能动性,掌握了本课的重点句型,突破了难点。序数词的处理还不到位,对2a的处理仅仅注重了说,学生对序数词的掌握不好,要求学生多进行对话活动,在语言实践中习得语言。
