Analyses of the text material
It’s the second period of Unit 6 and the main subject is to deal with reading comprehension of the text. The major idea of the text material is the process of electricity coming into people’s flats. There are some new words which are hard for the students to pronounce correctly in this unit, such as electricity, conversation, identify and so on, but the contents of the text is not so hard to understand. Guided properly, the students can finish all the questions neatly.
Analyses of the students
Two thirds of the students used to be very poor in English study. Not only did they know little about English, but also they had no interest in it at all. After the first term, most of them have become more and more interested in this subject and they are eager to take part in activities during the class. However, because of their poor basic knowledge of English, it is not easy for them to follow the teacher and get effective achievements. They have the enthusiasm but they are lack of abilities, so they need more encouragement and support. For this class, they have learned the new words in the first period. Maybe most of them can’t pronounce the new words without any mistakes, but it is possible that the new words are not barriers for them to deal with reading comprehension.
Courses
Step 1 Greeting&introducing the items to be learnt 1’

And the student should spell the word and translate it into Chinese. Each of them can try five times and the ones who get the highest and the second highest marks can be the winners.

Blackboard design 各位领导老师：大家好
我说课的题目是沪教牛津2013版7B 第三模块第六单元的阅读课，本课是第二课时，整个说课我将分三部分进行讲述，即学生分析、教材分析、教学环节的设计。
一、学生分析
众所周知，我校的学苗每年都有严重的流失，在十多个好学苗走后，现在我任教的七年二班的学生是典型的有热情、没基础型的学生。只有两个学生能学透，五六个学生能基本完成每节课的学习任务。其他学生都称得上是英语学科的学困生。虽然迄今为止还没有学生完全放弃英语学习，但近一半的学生是以凑热闹的心态对待英语学习的，他们课上不思考，课后不复习，处理英语习题的万能法则总是一个字：蒙。所以作为教师，除了教授他们知识外，还要想尽办法在提高他们的学习兴趣的基础上培养他们的学习习惯，带着他们体验成功，所以我更侧重于把课设计得有趣一些。
二、教材分析
本课是沪教版牛津英语七年级下学期第三模块第六单元的第二课时，学生已经学过生词并且处理完阅读前的相关准备工作。本课旨在培养学生的阅读理解能力，通过不同难度的问题设计，引导学生充分理解课文，完成以下预期学习目标：
知识目标： A通过上下文掌握重要词汇和短语。
B正确判断代词的指代成分。
2、能力目标：
a.能快速并准确的找到所需要的信息。
b.能了解电如何进入人们的公寓。
c.能灵活运用所学知识流畅地表达对电的看法。
3、情感目标：
了解电的重要性和节电的必要性；认识到电的危险性，注意用电安全。
本课重点和难点
1、重点：根据新课程标准对阅读能力的要求，我确定本课重点为提高学生快速阅读的水平，让学生能快速了解课文的主要内容，并迅速准确地找到所需信息。
2、难点：熟练掌握提高阅读理解能力的策略和方法；改善并提高交流和合作能力。
教学方法与策略：重复策略，组织策略和提问策略。
教学环节的设计
1、问候并介绍本课的学习内容：
师生问候之后，通过ppt向学生展示本课的学习内容。
设计意图：让学生清楚本课时的学习任务，有针对性地利用时间，提高课堂效率。
2、复习
利用单词卡片复习学过的单词。每名学生站在前面面向同学，抽取单词卡片后自己不看，展示给同学，同学高声读出该词，然后这名同学拼写出该词并翻译成汉语。小组竞赛，满分5分，分数最高的两组获胜。
设计意图：复习上节课学过的词汇，将听力和拼写结合起来，增加趣味性；避免学生死记硬背的同时也能提高学生的听力及反应能力。
3、热身并导入新课
通过进行关于电的小测验来进行热身，提高课堂兴趣，点燃学生的情绪。让学生辅以手势，对六个句子的正确与否加以判断。活动开始时全体学生起立，答对的继续站着，答错的坐下，站到最后者胜出。
设计意图：调动学生情绪，增加课堂的趣味性，增强学生的参与意识，同时向学生介绍一些关于电的常识，强调用电安全的重要性。
4、新课讲授
A.根据段意给课文分段
设计意图：培养学生的分析能力，为综合阅读部分的大意分析奠定基础。
B.指出文中的代词指代什么
设计意图：速读细节检测，为综合阅读部分的指代题奠定基础。
C.根据课文判断对错，错的加以改正
设计意图：细节考查，用对句子的理解来纠正学生理解课文时可能出现的偏差。
D.用尽可能少的词回答问题
设计意图：在查找相应信息的基础上，用尽可能少的词回答问题，进一步将问题和答案相联系，做到问什么答什么，为问答阅读部分答题的规范和准确打基础。以上各问题的设计难度由浅及深，一步一步引导学生增强理解，学会并掌握处理阅读材料的基本方法。
5、巩固检测
要求学生根据课文内容填空补全本尼的道歉卡。
设计意图：检测并进一步巩固学生对课文主要内容的掌握，同时向学生进行情感方面的教育引导：做错事要道歉。
6、小组讨论
让学生以小组为单位，讨论“你对电的看法如何？”要求每小组最终以最少五句话来回报讨论结果。
设计意图：加强学生的口语表达能力，同时为作业中的书面表达奠定基础。
7、总结归纳
把各个小组的观点加以归纳和总结，通过板书强调电的两面性：有用又有害。根据电的不同特点采取不同的对待方式。
设计意图：达成共识，突出重点，全面而准确的评价电，为书面表达观点的科学准确做伏笔。
8、布置作业
第一项作业是写一篇关于电的作文。
设计意图：依据新课标的要求，写作需有明确的动机和积极的态度，写作的题目应结合学生的实际需要，在学完关于电的文章并讨论对电的看法后，这个作文题目对学生来说再合适不过了。
另一项作业是各小组准备角色朗读。
设计意图：旨在督促学生多读多练，充分利用课后时间增强语感、提高英语口语水平。
本节课教学效果的预测
100%的学生能够积极参与课堂教学活动；80%的学生能基本完成学习任务；60%的学生能比较准确的表达自己的思想。(共27张PPT)
