五、教学过程：
Step 1: Warm-up (热身)
1. Greet the students and sing a song about cities together.
Teacher: Good morning, everyone! I hope you're all excited for today's lesson. Let's start by warming up with a fun song about cities. (The teacher sings a song like "Big City Life" or "Empire State of Mind," encouraging students to join in and sing along.)
2. Show pictures of different cities and ask the students if they know the names of the cities.
Teacher: Now, let's take a look at some pictures of different cities from around the world. Raise your hand if you can identify any of these cities. (The teacher shows pictures of famous cities such as New York City, Paris, Tokyo, and Beijing.)
Student 1: I know that one! It's New York City!
Teacher: That's correct! Great job, Student 1. Can anyone identify the others
Step 2: Presentation (呈现)
1. Introduce the new word "village" and teach its pronunciation and meaning.
Teacher: Today, we're going to learn a new word: "village." Repeat after me: "village."
Students: Village.
Teacher: Excellent! A village is a small community or settlement in a rural area. It's usually smaller than a city and has fewer buildings and people. Can you think of any examples of a village
Student 2: My grandparents live in a village. It's called Green Valley.
Teacher: That's a great example, Student 2! Green Valley sounds like a lovely village.
2. Show pictures of a village and a city, and ask the students to describe the differences between them.
Teacher: Now, let's compare a village and a city. Take a look at these pictures. What differences do you notice between them
Student 3: In the village picture, I see lots of trees and fields, but in the city picture, there are tall buildings and busy streets.
Teacher: That's correct, Student 3! Villages are often surrounded by nature, with more open spaces, while cities have more buildings and a busier atmosphere. Well done!
Step 3: Practice (练习)
1. Teach the sentence pattern "Was it a big city then " and model the pronunciation and intonation.
Teacher: Now, let's learn a sentence pattern we can use to talk about changes in places. Repeat after me: "Was it a big city then "
Students: "Was it a big city then "
Teacher: Great! Pay attention to the rising intonation at the end of the sentence. Let's practice saying it together a few times.
2. Divide the students into pairs. One student asks the question, and the other answers using "Yes, it was." or "No, it wasn't." based on the picture shown.
Teacher: Now, I'll pair you up. Student A, you will ask the question, and Student B, you will respond based on the picture I show you. Let's begin!
(Student A and B practice asking and answering questions using the sentence pattern and the pictures provided by the teacher.)
3. Conduct role-play activities in pairs. Students take turns asking and answering questions about the changes in different places.
Teacher: Now, let's take the role-play activity a step further. I want you to imagine that you're talking to someone who has lived in a certain place for a long time. Ask questions about how that place has changed over the years. Practice with your partner and try to use the sentence pattern we just learned.
(Students engage in role-play activities, asking and answering questions about the changes in different places.)
Step 4: Consolidation (巩固)
1. Play a game called "Guess the Place." Show pictures of different places and describe them using the sentence pattern. Students guess the name of the place.
Teacher: It's time for a fun game called "Guess the Place." I will describe a place using the sentence pattern we learned. Your task is to guess the name of the place. Are you ready
(The teacher shows pictures of various places and describes them using the sentence pattern. Students take turns guessing the names of the places.)
2. Have a class discussion about the changes in their own city or town. Encourage students to share their observations and opinions.
Teacher: Now, let's shift our focus to our own city or town. Raise your hand if you've noticed any changes in your hometown. What are some of the changes you've observed
(Student 4 raises hand.)
Student 4: In my town, they built a new shopping mall last year. It used to be an empty field before.
Teacher: That's an interesting change, Student 4. Anyone else
(Encourage students to share their observations and opinions about the changes in their own city or town.)
Step 5: Group Activity (小组活动)
1. Divide the class into small groups andgive each group a picture of a city at different times. Students discuss and describe the changes in the city using the sentence pattern.
Teacher: Now, let's work in small groups. I will give each group a picture of a city at different times. Take a few minutes to discuss and describe the changes you notice in the city using the sentence pattern we learned. Be ready to share your findings with the class.
(Students form groups, receive the pictures, and discuss the changes in the city depicted in the images.)
2. Each group presents their picture and descriptions to the class.
Teacher: It's time for each group to present their findings. Group 1, please start and share your picture and describe the changes you observed in the city.
(Group 1 presents their picture and descriptions, followed by other groups.)
Step 6: Summary and Closure (总结和结束)
1. Review the sentence pattern "Was it... Yes, it was. No, it wasn't." with the whole class.
Teacher: Before we conclude today's lesson, let's review the sentence pattern we learned. Repeat after me: "Was it... "
Students: "Was it... "
Teacher: Excellent! Now, let's practice using it. I will say a statement, and you respond with either "Yes, it was" or "No, it wasn't."
(The teacher provides statements, and students respond using the sentence pattern.)
2. Review the new word "village" and its meaning.
Teacher: We also learned a new word today. What was that word
Students: Village.
Teacher: Great! And what does it mean
Students: A small community or settlement in a rural area.
Teacher: Well done, everyone!
3. Summarize the main points of the lesson and encourage students to share their feelings about the topic.
Teacher: Today, we explored the differences between villages and cities, learned how to talk about changes in places using the sentence pattern "Was it... ", and discussed the changes in our own city or town. Now, I'd like to hear from each of you. How do you feel about the topic of changes in cities and villages

七、教学反思：
本节课通过引导学生描述城市的变化，培养了他们的口语交际能力和团队合作能力。学生在小组活动中积极参与讨论，提高了他们的合作意识和表达能力。同时，通过了解城市的变化，学生对自己的生活环境有了更深的认识，并培养了对祖国的热爱和自豪感。在教学中，我注重创设情境，引导学生运用所学知识进行实际交流和思考，提高了他们的学习兴趣和主动性。然而，对于一些学生来说，熟练运用句型描绘变化仍然是一个难点，需要进一步巩固和练习。在今后的教学中，我将注重提供更多的练习机会和个性化辅导，帮助学生更好地掌握所学内容。
