学情分析：本课时是在前三课时学习的基础上进一步加深学习：前三课时呈现了许多做家务的词，学生接受起来不会觉得很难。因为知识的突破有个层次递进的过程，再加上课堂上教师的层层引导，相信学生能轻松掌握本课时内容。
效果分析：通过本节课的教学，我感觉学生对是否应做家务有了深入的了解，对如何表达自己的观点有了一定的依托，同时我采用了视频教学，形象生动，效果良好。同时，利用思维导图，这样显得全面具体。
?
1.利用情景教学法，使学生置身于一定的语言环境中学习，让学生有一种身临其境的感觉。教学做到了“词不离句，句不离情境”的语言教学原则。
2.能全部运用多媒课件体进行教学， 形象生动地展现火鸡的制作过程， 是学生在学习的过程中很好的实现了语言知识的掌握向语言运用地转换；
?3. 运用任务型教学法，参与式教学法等进行教学，课堂气氛活跃；
4．情感教育是本节课的一个亮点，适时对学生进行了情感教育。
5.运用视频教学和思维导图教学效果良好。

（公正性）They all think the kids should do housework.Dear Sir,
I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework. It’s not enough to just get good grades at school. Children these days depend on their parents too much. They’re always asking, “Could you get this for me?” or “Could you help me with that?” Doing chores helps to develop children’s independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keeping it clean and tidy. Our neighbor’s son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea how to take care of himself. As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dropped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.

I don’t understand why some parents make their kids help with housework and chores at home. Kids these days already have enough stress from school. They don’t have time to study and do housework, too. Housework is a waste of their time. Could we just let them do their job as students? They should spend their time on schoolwork in order to get good grades and get into a good university. Also, when they get older, they will have to do housework so there’s no need for them to do it now. It is the parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home for their children. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult.
I don’t mind doing them.
