课标要求 1.语言知识：学习与家乡和国家相关的词汇，如north, south, west, home town, especially等；掌握形容词（单音节词和部分双音节词）的规则比较级形式及其构成。 2.语言技能：运用skimming, scanning等阅读技巧，获取文章大意、段落大意以及剑桥、伦敦及英国的地理位置、人口、风景名胜和天气等细节信息；能够口头比较两个城市的大小、人口等基本信息，写一篇短文介绍自己的家乡，围绕地理位置、地方名胜、地标建筑等内容展开，并恰当运用比较级。 3.学习策略：积极运用所学英语进行文章分析，学会介绍自己的家乡，通过观察、对比、分析、综合、应用等策略，实现知识的内化和迁移。 4.文化意识：了解英国英格兰地区的风物地理，开阔视野，培养对不同国家和地区风土人情的理解，提升对家乡和祖国的热爱之情。
教材 分析 What:本教案选自 Module2 My Home Town and My Country Unit2 Cambridge is a beautiful city in the east of England.单元，该单元属于外研版英语八年级上册的教学内容,本单元属于“人与社会”主题。 How:围绕居住环境这一主题，通过对英国城市伦敦和剑桥的介绍，让学生在学习英语语言知识的同时，了解外国文化，提高跨文化交际能力。教材内容贴近学生生活，有助于激发学生的学习兴趣，培养学生用英语介绍家乡和国家的表达能力。 Why:教材通过介绍伦敦和剑桥，展现了英国的历史、文化和现代生活，为学生提供了一个了解英国文化的窗口。内容涉及城市的历史背景、著名建筑、教育机构和文化活动，丰富了学生的文化知识。此外，教材中的词汇和表达都是与地理位置、人口描述、旅游景点介绍等相关的实用英语，这些内容有助于学生在实际生活中进行有效的英语交流。最后，教材通过对伦敦和剑桥的对比，引导学生观察和分析两个城市的不同特点，这不仅有助于学生理解文章内容，还能培养学生的比较分析能力。
学情 分析 学生来自八年级，学生较为活跃， 能积极参与课堂活动和小组合作。本单元的语法要点：形容词（单音节和部分双音节）比较级， 学生在小学时候已经接触过，所以对于学生来说，难度不大。但是学生对本话题兴趣度不高，而且本单元要求学生听懂并获取大数字的信息，对于学生来说可能挑战性比较大。
核心素养目标 1)Language ability 在多媒体创设情境中准确运用重点词汇north,south,west,hometown,be famous for, island,area,low,mountain,countryside,umbrella，在阅读短文中进一步理解并运用常用表达It… has a population of about 120,000，be famous for，seven and a half million,any time of the year等，深入了解并准确运用文中含形容词比较级的句型so it is bigger and busier than Cambridge. 2) Culture awareness 阅读短文初步了解英国两大城市伦敦和剑桥的基本概况，丰富学生对外国文化知识的了解，拓宽思维，增长见识。 3) Thinking quality 初读短文为下面两张图片选标题，本活动是信息辨认类活动，初步培养学生快速阅读的能力；细读短文比较伦敦和剑桥的位置、人口、名胜和河流，进一步理解文章中的细节，进一步提升学生抓取关键信息的能力；通过问题引导What’s the writing order of the article,促进学生初步了解本篇短文按照从小到大、从局部到整体的顺序介绍英语国家，与我们中文介绍家乡的文章结构有着明显的不同，但是从英文地址的书写到文本结构的分析，学生能够深刻领悟文章结构和地址书写在思维方式上一脉相成，进一步提升学生的逻辑推理能力。 4)Learning ability 细读短文准确运用形容词比较级句型比较伦敦和剑桥的位置、人口、名胜和河流;准确回答问题，依据问题提示适当扩充资料使用比较级句型，简要完成一篇关于家乡的书面表达。 Key points: 1.在阅读短文中进一步理解并运用常用表达It… has a population of about 120,000，be famous for，seven and a half million,any time of the year等。 2.准确运用形容词比较级句型比较区分伦敦和剑桥的位置、人口、名胜和河流。
教学重点 1）词汇掌握：学生能够熟练掌握并运用重点词汇，如north,south,west,hometown,be famous for, island,area,low,mountain,countryside,umbrella等，以及在具体情境中的正确使用。 2）表达运用：学生能够理解和运用文中的常用表达，如“Its population is about 120,000”，“Be famous for”，“seven million, five hundred thousand”，“Any time of the year”，并学会使用形容词比较级句型，如“所以它比剑桥更大、更繁忙”。 3）文化知识：通过阅读短文，学生能够对英国的两个主要城市伦敦和剑桥有基本的了解，从而丰富对外国文化知识的认识。 4）阅读理解：学生通过对比伦敦和剑桥的位置、人口、著名景点和河流，提高从文本中提取关键信息的能力。
教学难点 1）形容词比较级句型：学生可能会在构建和使用形容词比较级句型来比较伦敦和剑桥的属性时遇到困难。 2）逻辑思维：学生可能难以理解和分析文章的写作结构，即从小到大介绍英国的方式，以及认识到英文和中文在文章结构上的明显不同。 3）信息处理：学生在初步阅读时，可能会在快速识别和处理文本信息方面感到困难，尤其是在为图片选择标题或根据文本回答问题时。 4）知识应用：学生将所学知识应用于制作关于自己家乡的宣传卡片和演讲时，可能会觉得这是一个复杂的任务，需要他们整合信息并有效使用比较级形容词。
教学 方法 情境教学法：通过展示地图、播放视频等多媒体手段，创设真实的学习情境，帮助学生更好地理解和运用英语词汇和表达。 互动式教学法：在复习和引入新课时，教师通过提问和引导学生参与，增加课堂互动，激发学生的学习兴趣和参与度。 比较分析法：在文章解读环节，引导学生比较剑桥和伦敦的各个方面，培养学生的分析能力和批判性思维。

板书设计 Module2 My Home Town and My Country Unit2 Cambridge is a beautiful city in the east of England.
教学反思 首先在课文引入的时候，我用本校学生录的一段视频对柳州进行了一个简要介绍，这能够引起学生对本堂课学习的一个兴趣，也能够引入到后面对于英国伦敦以及剑桥的一个介绍。 接下来我们就进行了阅读，首先是快速阅读，学生通过 2 分钟的阅读，回答问题，但是在 2 分钟之内也有一些少部分同学没有找出答案，说明我们在平时的阅读当中，应该教会学生如何快速的阅读，然后抓住关键词，大部分学生在完成表格时，表现出了良好的阅读理解能力。 在引导学生使用方位名词时，我发现有些学生不够自信，这可能是因为他们对这些词汇还不够熟悉。我需要在未来的教学中增加更多的实际运用场景。在比较剑桥和伦敦时，有些学生难以用英语表达自己的想法。这提示我需要在课堂上提供更多的口语练习机会。在今后的教学中，我应当教授更多的阅读策略，帮助学生提高信息抓取能力。 我注意到有些学生在描述家乡时词汇量有限，今后我需要更多地关注词汇教学，为学生提供更多的词汇学习资源。 总体来说，这堂课的教学目标基本达成，学生在语言能力、文化意识和学习策略方面都有所提升。但在教学过程中，我也发现了一些需要改进的地方，比如加强对学生口语表达能力的培养、提供更多的词汇学习资源等。在今后的教学中，我将根据这些反思进行调整和优化。
