【教学设计说明】
本模块的话题是Animals in Danger，在Vocabulary and Listening部分，通过对一位在南非Tembe自然保护区工作的志愿者的采访，让学生了解更多的濒危动物，并了解自愿者的工作，激发他们愿意成为一名志愿者的热情。
热身环节，用图片导入并解释了insect, mammal, reptile, bird四个新词，接着阅读书中的4段描述，进一步巩固4个新词，并根据描述引出这些动物濒危的话题，进而导入到“自然保护区”，为听的环节做了词汇上的准备。听前的预测又激起了学生听的欲望。
听的环节设置了listen for main idea, listen for specifc information 以及listen for summary 三个步骤。由泛听-精听-泛听，尤其是精听过程中部分细节的复听让学生对听力材料有了很好的理解。并在听的过程中处理了短语keep an eye on以及go for。
听后，通过呈现5张濒危动物的图片，直观展示他们的生存现状，对学生形成一种视觉上的冲击，很自然感受到一种伤心和担忧，进而讨论出拯救他们的措施。之后，用“我们为什么要保护这些濒危动物”，对学生的情感以及价值观进行升华，得出我们应与它们共生存的结论。 作业环节，让学生准备一个演讲，整理本堂课的讨论结果，进一步巩固本堂课所学的对于濒危动物的描述。
