外研版八年级上册Module 10 Unit2 教学设计
【教材分析】本课为Module 10的第二单元，是读写课。让学生能够读懂描述天气状况的语言材料，并且学会阅读，学会理解文章大意和提取细节信息的方法。能够就某一问题提出建议并做出解释，不仅知道游览美国的最佳时间，而且能够就选择最佳时机来中国游玩给出建议，从而提高学生的理解能力和表达能力。
【学情分析】本课的授课对象是八年级的学生们，基础参差不齐，但他们活泼好动，善于表现自我。本单元的语法项目是表可能的词的运用及运用所学知识，借助所学知识，运用because，so， but对到美国参观的最佳时机写一些建议。让学生学会通过小组讨论，写一篇吸引游客到美国或到自己家乡游览的文章。该话题贴进学生的生活，便于他们利用自己的实际情况和所学知识来展开话题。因此根据新课标的要求，我以学生的兴趣为出发点，以培养学生的自主学习的能力和合作精神为目的，让学生积极的参与到课堂中来，并且充分利用图片、多媒体课件等教学辅助设备，加强直观印象，对难点进行适当指导，培养学生自主、合作、融会贯通的学习能力。

Step 4【释难解惑】Language points
1. The best time to visit New England is in September.
九月是去新英格兰游览的最佳时间。
这里的New England (新英格兰) 指的是美国东北部的一个地区，他包括六个州：缅因州（Maine）、新罕布什尔州（New Hampshire）、佛蒙特州(Vermont )、马萨诸塞州(Massachusetts)、罗得岛州(Rhode Island) 和康涅狄格州(Connecticut) 。这里的小镇非常美丽，每年秋天都会有大批游客来此游玩。1614年英国探险家约翰?史密斯 ( John Smith ) 给这个地方起名为新英格兰。
2. Bring your camera so you can take photos of the autumn trees.
带上你的照相机以便可以拍摄秋天的树木。

Step8教学反思：
在准备这节课的过程中，我本着“新、活、动”的原则去设计。
新：我采用新的课程理念去设计本课，尽量在课程设计中体验出“以学生发展为主”的新课程理念，采用“小组合作”教学模式。
活：要求本课在课堂活动安排上具有灵活性、随机性。
动：根据新课程理念，新的英语课堂模式应是互动的。根据这一理念我设计了形式多样的、有利于学生参与竞争与合作的课堂活动。激发了学生的学习爱好，增强了学生学好英语的信心和决心，活跃了课堂气氛。在设计本课时充分体现了新课程的理念，课堂上，教师和学生一起参与课堂活动，并且在写作方面，采用从句子到语篇的写作方式。这种递进的方式对于英语基础不好的学生尤为有用。在基本掌握了含有because 、so、 but句的用法后，通过写作，能够将所学知识进一步巩固和强化。但是我感觉这节课还有很多不足之处。例如，“活“字体现的还不到位。我会在以后的教学中更加注意这方面的练习。
Step9学生评价：
学生学习成果及评价：
1.英语口语表达,能自编对话，同桌或小组能准确表达。
2.能正确理解主要功能句的意义，并自由写作。第一步是句子的写作，第二步是语篇的写作。第一步为第二步作好准备，这种递进的方式对于英语基础不好的学生尤为有用。
评价方法：教师口头评价 学生互评 学生组间评价 教师评价小组
分层次评价：
注意学生学习中现实存在的层次性。
学优生评价：能够熟练掌握专题一所学内容，达成学习目标。能流利地用英语提出问题、判断问题的严重性、给出建议。
学困生评价：能够积极向同学和老师求助，能够利用课本所提供的帮助材料学习，能够基本运用英语提出问题、判断问题的严重性、及时解决问题。
Step10教学效果：
建立了新型的师生关系，学生在合作中体验了成功，树立了信心，成功完成了本课的教学目的，达到了预期的课堂效果。
