本课时的教学内容是冀教版七年级英语下册第八单元的第二课时,重点在于引导学生理解语境,从表示暑假的词开始,自然地导入谈论制订暑假计划的话题。以制订一个有意义的暑假计划作为任务引起学生的听说兴趣,训练学生的听力和口语表达能力。利用动作、手势和图片学习英语单词,同时在文章中反复运用新学的单词和短语。因此,教师可以将知识目标定为掌握本课时新出现的词和短语,介绍如何制订暑假计划的句型。情感目标定为通过话题的学习,培养学生的学习习惯和兴趣,使学生能够用英语制订暑假计划,能独立完成制订暑假计划的任务。
教学准备:
设计教学PPT,录音机,多媒体,相应的插图,表示一些活动的实物、图片和单词卡片。

☆教材解读☆
1.ARG takes care of pets without a home.?
care名词,意为“照料,保护,小心”, 常与动词take连用, 构成短语take care,意为“小心”;take care of意为“照顾, 保管”,相当于look after。
He is old enough to take care of himself.
他足够大,能照顾自己了。
Don’t worry.I can take care of your baby well.别担心。我能把你的婴儿照顾好。
【拓展】 care的其他用法:
(1)care作动词, 意为“关心;照料”。
I don’t care what will happen.
我不管会发生什么。
(2)care的形容词形式为careful,意为“小心的,仔细的”,副词形式为carefully,意为“仔细地,小心地”。
She is a careful girl.
她是一个细心的女孩。
Jenny writes the exam carefully.
詹妮认真地考试。
2.Sometimes, people move away and they can’t take their pets with them.?
【辨析】 sometimes, sometime, some time,some times
(1)sometimes 有时候(=at times) 常用于一般现在时。
He sometimes watches TV.他有时看电视。
(2)sometime意为 “在某一时候”,表示时间的不确定。
We will visit the museum sometime next week.下周的某个时候我们将参观博物馆。
(3)some time 意为 “一段时间”。
I will be away for some time.
我将离开一段时间。
(4)some times 意为 “好几次”。
I went to Beijing some times.
我去过北京好几次了。
3.Or sometimes, people are not nice to their pets.?
be nice to意为“对某人友好”。同义短语为:be kind/friendly to。
Mr.Smith is nice to us.
史密斯先生对我们很友好。
4.His family left him alone in a field.?
alone副词,意为“单独;独自”,用在实义动词后,相当于by oneself(独自),leave…alone不管;撇下……(一个人)。
When his wife died,he lived alone.
他的妻子死后,他一个人生活。
【辨析】 alone,lonely
(1)alone形容词,意为“单独的,独自的”,通常只是表示客观上的一个人,而不表示寂寞或孤独等感彩。
I was alone, but I did not feel lonely.
我虽然孤单,但我不感到寂寞。
(2)lonely形容词,意为“孤独的;寂寞的,荒凉的,偏僻的”,带有较强的感彩,可用作表语或定语。
She often feels lonely.她常感到寂寞。
Mr.Read lives alone in the lonely village, but he never feels lonely.里德先生独居于偏僻的村庄中,却从未感到孤独。
[设计意图] 学生在听了细节之后,朗读巩固,训练学生的语音、语调。让同学们分组找问题,问其他组,可以增强同学们细节理解的能力。

2.Work in groups.Suppose you join the ARG.What do you think you will do?
3.Work in groups:Ask the students to make sentences with the language points.Teacher knows whether the students understand the language points from their sentences.
[设计意图] 让同学们重述课文,考查同学们对课文的理解程度,设想你在ARG工作,你每天应该为宠物做哪些事情。这个练习的设置有助于同学们发挥自己的想象力,并且练习本课学到的单词、短语和句型。培养学生运用目标语言进行交际的能力。用知识点造句可以暴露出学生没有掌握扎实的知识点。
Step Ⅵ.Complete Let’s Do It!
We have finished Exercise 1 in reading part.Ask the students to finish Exercise 2 by themselves.Then check the answers in class.
[设计意图] Let’s Do It!部分中的Exercise 1我们在阅读部分已经完成了。Exercise 2是考查学生们对短语和课文的掌握程度。考查学生们对本课单词、短语和句型的实际运用能力。
