Unit 8 Surprise endings课时教学设计
本单元第二课时 Reading D、 Listening
语篇研读
本节课是本单元的第二课时，是一节阅读巩固课和听力练习课。重点讲授阅读理解和听选信息和根据关键信息填空的能力。学生应该掌握一些阅读技巧，比如浏览细节、观察文章的结构等。 【what】本节课学习课本117-118页的内容，本节课的语篇涉及上节课学习的课文原文。Reading D Comprehension部分的内容是通过对原文的再次阅读，结合关于Della和Jim在圣诞节前一天有关的描述和图片中的情景，在阅读和听原文的过程中获取一些信息并做笔记。Listening的部分讲述的是旁白介绍欧亨利的一生，听的过程中，根据关键词和信息做笔记和填空，有助于学生了解欧亨利一生的具体经历。 【why】通过图文、问答等形式，让学生学习在经典小说中，作者是如何描写在同一时刻，不同人物的思想活动，如何推动故事情节的发展等，引发学生对阅读英美经典读物的兴趣。 【how】本节课的语篇形式多样，但都围绕同一个核心主题展开，即“礼物”。Reading D Comprehension部分是描写Della和Jim在三个不同时刻的内心活动。Reading D Comprehension部分以图片、录音、对话的形式，复习了上节课需要掌握的重点词汇、短语和宾语从句。Listening部分，通过独白和表格、阅读理解，让学生了解了欧亨利的一生。
学情分析
本节课的目标语言的基础词汇、短语、句型对于学生来说比较容易掌握，特别是begin doing sth., be sent to prison, be remembered as…, be afraid of…, at the age of...等可以从字面上理解和记忆。根据图片和图表上的提示信息，对比原文，可以快速找到正确的句子和短语。易于理解，因此可以很好地激发学生的学习兴趣。九三班的学生大部分英语学习和英语思维能力差，课堂表现欲较差，课外探索学习资源和材料的意识也比较弱，需任课教师不断引导，好好启发。

Example
We learned that the article was about a young couple named Jim and Della. It is a famous story by O. Henry, a great short story writer. They had two possessions which they were both proud of. One was Jim's gold watch that was from his father and his grandfather. The other was Della's beautiful hair. It fell about her, and reached below her knee. On the day before Christmas, they both wanted to buy a gift for the other, but they didn't have enough money. So Della went to a store called “Hair Goods” to sell her hair, and bought Jim a watch chain. Meanwhile Jim sold his watch and bought a set of combs for Della. So late that night when Jim came back home, he was surprised to see Della's beautiful hair has gone. Della told him she cut her hair for his watch chain. Listening to this, Jim smiled and told her he sold the watch to get the money to buy the combs. How they loved each other！

单元名称 Unit 8 Surprise endings
单元主题及主要内容分析
单元主题分析： 本单元的主题是“外国文学史上有代表性的作家和作品的赏析”，对应课标中的“人与社会”这一范畴以及“文学艺术与体育”这一主题群。 单元内容分析： 本单元涉及的话题与“意外结局”相关，通过多模态形式的语篇，如日常对话、列表（欧亨利的一生）、礼貌地表达不同意的方式、小组讨论特殊日子的礼物最有价值的礼物、短篇小说《最后的叶子》、“白色大象”的介绍等预测阅读文本的内容，呈现了节日与礼物之间传递出的深层含义，增强学生对社会活动更深层次的观察和思考能力。 整个单元分为Reading、Listening、Grammar、Speaking、Writing、More practice、Study skills、Culture corner八个部分。每部分的内容都有兼顾学生“听、说、读、看、写”等技能的内容编排，关注语言的理解性技能和表达性技能的协调发展。教材的语言材料涉及的具体语言知识有：（1）送礼物的特殊日子；（2）欧亨利短篇小说《礼物》；（3）欧亨利的一生；（4）介词的位置和用法；（5）礼貌地表达不同意；（6）特殊日子赠送的礼物；（7）最宝贵的礼物；(8) 欧亨利最著名短篇小说《最后的叶子》； (9) “白色大象”的介绍。通过单元话题的学习，引发对礼物赠送的时间、象征意义的进一步认知和了解，激发学生的求知欲和好奇心，尊重和珍惜礼物，能够表达自己的不同意见，从而形成热爱生活、珍惜礼物，表达自我，增强阅读英美文学经典的意识。 以下是单元语篇内容分析图和基于单元主题和语篇内容分析形成的单元结构图： 表一：单元教学内容 Numbers单元教学内容语篇语篇类型（技能）语篇内容语篇主题一 What do you know about 看图填词（读）特殊节日赠送礼物学习不同的特殊节日二 The gifts短篇小说（读）Jim和Della在圣诞节前夕用互赠礼物的故事学习礼物的意义三 How much do you know about O. Henry 列表（听）关于“欧亨利的一生”的讲座，完成表格填写通过表格了解关于欧亨利的一生等信息，并做记录。四 Disagreeing in a polite way对话（说）表达不同意见，用友好而礼貌的语言表达自己的观点。形成热爱生活，增强表达自己不同观点的意识。五 The most valuable gift应用文（写）Jim写了一篇关于他曾经收到过最有价值的礼物的文章。通过一系列问题的提示，写一篇你收到过的最宝贵的礼物的文章。六 The last leaf短篇小说（读）介绍关于欧亨利最著名的短篇小说了解欧亨利的其他作品，增强阅读英美文学经典的意识。
表二：单元大观念：
核心素养的综合表现： 学完本单元后，学生能够掌握用目标语言理解与礼物相关的词汇，同时能用礼貌的方式表达不同的观点。正确使用介词的位置；运用圈画关键词等策略理解关键信息回答问题; 运用本单元所学，增强学生对英美经典文学作品的兴趣，培养理解经典的能力。
学情分析
（一）自然情况 本单元围绕“礼物”这一话题，开展教学活动，学习赠送礼物的特殊日子、欧亨利的短篇小说《礼物》、礼貌表达自己的不同观点、欧亨利的一生、《最后一片叶子》等，初步了解英美文学作品。符合Module 4 A taste of literature这个话题的内容探究，以及九年级学生对知识的汲取需求。 （二）已有基础 (1)学生对“礼物”的话题比较熟悉，对自己在特殊日子收获的礼物也比较感兴趣，并愿意分享。 (2)学生已经基本掌握了课内词汇并能理解介词的基本位置和用法。约有70%的学生可以准确表达含有介词的固定搭配。 存在问题
健康生活属于A taste of literature这个话题，涉及的知识面非常广，学生虽然在小学和七年级、八年级涉猎了一些，但是比较浅显，涉及的知识面也不够广泛。本单元的教学内容应该站在一个更高更宽广的角度去理解。 解决措施 鼓励学生在课堂上积极踊跃发言，尊重每个学生的想法，并给予客观公正的评价，而不是期待唯一的标准答案。2. 培养学生思考特殊节日、节日赠送的礼物以及礼物背后的意义。3. 在教学过程中，以学生为中心。创设让学生合作交流的学习情境，一起探讨、讨论，共同完成学习任务。并鼓励学生将所学内容与家长进行分享。4. 教学方式灵活多样，根据学生随堂掌握情况，及时做出调整和改进。5. 从多角度多维度对学生进行多方位评价。
单元学习目标
通过本单元的学习，学生能够： 能够用目标语言准确表达赠送礼物的特殊节日；掌握小说的三要素（人物形象、故事情节、环境描写） 和情节（开端、发展、高潮、结局），掌握通过图片和提供的信息对篇章内容的整体推测，及抓住关键信息的听力技能； 掌握介词的位置和用法；通过对话，礼貌地表达自己的不同观点； 通过阅读题干和观察图片，能够预测文章内容，读懂文章，了解欧亨利最著名短篇小说《最后一片 叶子》的相关内容；通过图片和提问等方式帮助学生提取关键信息，理解文章，增强学生运用策略的意识。 4. 能够正确使用介词及含有介词的固定搭配（形容词+介词、名词+介词、动词+介词），提高用短语正确 表达的能力。
单元课时安排
语篇 课型 第*课时 课时对应的单元教学目标

Henry 这篇文章的填空，来评价掌握有效听力，获取关键信息的能力；通过P126 White elephant了解白象作为礼物的含义，增强对礼物文化的理解。
教学反思（实施后填写）
本单元的教学设计，在单元主题的指导下，基于话题对教材内容进行整合，将本单元的教学设计成五课时。每节课的设计都体现了任务型教学的理念，任务的设计由浅入深，层层递进；由于本单元的主题是意外的结局，单元内容是从各个角度，对特殊节日获得的礼物、短篇小说《礼物》，同时对话中学习了如何礼貌地表达对事物的不同看法，最宝贵的礼物等知识性的输出很多，考查学生的课外阅读拓展，知识的积累，这些都是平时一点一点养成的习惯性阅读，所以本单元的教学设计以知识性的干货输出为主，同时也有一些创造性的活动，来让学生在情境中自然地习得和表达。总的来说，本单元的设计带有一定的学术性，可能有的学生更喜欢稍微浅显一些的知识内容，趣味性更强的活动。
单元整体评价
经过本单元的学习，大部分学生对介词的位置和用法有了比较好的理解和掌握，并能在日常生活情境中灵活地去运用。有些学生能够用目标语言讨论自己看过的小说或是对小说内容的评价，掌握日常对话的逻辑思维和框架。但是还有一部分学生对于展开合理想象，用所学词汇、句式、语法等介绍自己最宝贵的礼物。话题是同学们比较熟悉的内容，因此对于本单元的内容，理解和吸收起来，相对是比较容易的。
作业设计 这份作业是在学生学完了Unit 8 Surprise ending布置完成的。在教学过程中，针对此话题对学生进行了听、说、读、看、写五个方面的技能训练，因此这份作业的主要目标是对本单元进行综合复习。通过三个任务，达成复习目标。
作业内容 作业目标 设计意图
基础题： 一套本单元基础知识复习题 掌握本单元的重点单词，短语和句式表达 查漏补缺，复习和巩固对本单元基础知识的掌握
提高题： 整理本单元的学习笔记，用思维导图归纳五个课时的语言点 增强自主学习的能力 能清楚了解自身对于知识的把握上，哪些真正掌握，哪些需要加强复习巩固
拓展题： 全班组织一场关于分享介绍我最宝贵的礼物的活动，让学习联系实际生活，在生活中运用起来。 在情境中更加深入地消化和吸收本单元的主题观念和语言观念 将本单元的主题观念和语言观念进行迁移创新
