(2)—What’s the temperature today?—It’s 10℃.
(3)—It’s quite warm today.—Spring is coming.
Please pay attention to the long words:weather,temperature.
The teacher should help students to learn the expressions:What’s the weather like today?/What’s the temperature today?
[设计意图]　两人组合练习对话。创设情景,使同学们身临其境,激发说的欲望。在练习中巩固本课需要掌握的句型。

☆教材解读☆
1.What’s the weather like today? ?
weather意为“天气”,like意为“像”,而不是“喜欢”。该句话和“How’s the weather today?”都表示询问天气。回答时,常用“It’s+表示天气的形容词”。询问过去和将来的天气时,要注意be动词的变化。
2.Here’s the weather report.?
本句是以Here开头的倒装句。在主语是名词的情况下,here只有指示意义,不能看作地点状语。here后be动词的单复数形式要根据be动词后名词的单复数形式来确定。
Here are your gifts.这是你的礼物。
3.There will be a shower this afternoon.?
本句是there be 句型的一般将来时,其结构为“There will be +主语+其他.”,表示“将会有……”。其中,will be 有时也可以用is/are going to be 代替。There be 句型的一般将来时的否定结构为“There will not be +主语+其他.”,其一般疑问句形式为“Will there be +主语+其他?”。
4.I hope not!?
此句常用于口语,指不希望前面所提到的情况发生,它的肯定表达为I hope so.意为“我希望如此”。类似表达还有:I think so./I don’t think so./I’m afraid so./I’m afraid not.
5.I’m scared of thunder! ?
be scared of意为“害怕,恐惧”,其后可接名词、代词或动名词,相当于be afraid of。
【拓展】　be scared to do sth意为“害怕、不敢做某事”。
　　6.What strange weather!?
这是一个由What 引导的感叹句,它引导的感叹句主要有以下几种形式:
(1)What +a/an +形容词+可数名词单数+主语+谓语!
(2)What +形容词+可数名词复数+主语+谓语!
(3)What +形容词+不可数名词+主语+谓语!
【拓展】　how也可以引导感叹句。how有副词的性质,可修饰形容词、副词或动词,它引导的感叹句有以下几种形式:
(1)How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!
(2)How+形容词+ a/an+可数名词单数+主语+谓语!
[设计意图]　学生通过阅读课文内容,了解课文重点内容,并且通过判断对错来训练对课文的理解和掌握;然后反复阅读对话,学习表达方式;最后利用填空练习题巩固重点内容。
StepⅥ.Complete Let’s Do It!
Ask the students to fill in the blanks in No.1,No.2 and No.3,and play the tape for several times until the students can fill in the table themselves.Ask the students to finish Exercise 3 in groups.
[设计意图]　Let’s Do It! 部分中的No.2重点是听说教学,包括了课文的大部分内容,听力的形式使学生又一次训练了听的能力。
StepⅦ.Task
PAIR WORK:Let’s Do It! No.4
Ask students to come to the front of the classroom,and some start walking towards others as the teacher says “go”.They must stop as the teacher says “stop”.Then they can have a conversation with the student who is standing in front of him/her.
[设计意图]　No.4的重点是口语练习。同学们通过随机组合来完成两人合作。以“谈论家乡的天气”为话题,提供了一个语境完整、内容丰富的对话,自然呈现本单元的核心句型,为学生进一步输出语言提供了口语示范。
StepⅧ.Exercises
T:Now,look at the sentences with some missing words.Please use proper words to fill them.
1.It will be 　　　　(cloud) tomorrow.?
2.I’m 　　　　(scare) of dogs.?
3.Here　　　　(be) some flowers.?
4.　　　　(today) newspaper is very exciting.?
5.How　　　　(be) the weather today??
【Keys】　1.cloudy　2.scared　3.are　4.Today’s　5.is
[设计意图]　以学评教、强化落实。当堂检测主要是由本节内容组成的形成性评价,利用已知的信息,让学生补充,让他们得到充分的训练。
StepⅨ.Homework
1.Practice the conversations with your group members after class.
2.Copy the new words twice.
[设计意图]　口头练习和单词记忆相结合,复习、归纳,注重语言知识的操练与积累。
