Unit 3 Lesson 3 Introducing Shanghai
Teaching material: Listening and Speaking: Introducing Shanghai
1. Teaching analysis：
本课选自新世纪教材7A Unit3Going on a holiday的第三课时Introducing Shanghai, 课型为听说课。本篇文章话题为城市的介绍，内容贴近生活、新鲜有趣。前两个课时与本节课有关联的知识点有：旅游景点专有名词、交通方式、表示面积的数字、modern等形容地方的形容词。本课在原有基础上更进一步，不仅增加了新的景点名称、数字、交通方式的词汇，还引导同学们有条理地介绍一个地方、学会提问。
设定的学情为教师所教的复旦五浦汇实验学校的学生，他们基础较好、喜欢表现自己。但是，部分同学在提问能力和条理性两方面还需加强，听说方面“说”比较积极，但“聆听”的意识比较薄弱。因此，在课前预习中铺垫条理；在课堂主题环节学习提问与回答；在最后的产出环节设计了明晰的“听”时的任务。让同学们有条理地、清楚地介绍一个地方，会让他们成为更好的文化推广者；让同学们带着关键问题去猜想、去记录，会让他们成为更好的倾听者。
总之，通过提问、聆听技能的训练，希望引导同学们成为更好的跨文化交流者、学习者。
