教学设计unit 1 lesson 1unit 1 lesson 1

step 1 check the pronunciation of the new words in unit 1

ask one or two students to read aloud the new words one by one, correct their pronunciation and then ask all the students to read aloud after the teacher (twice for each word).

step 2 dialogue

tell the students "now , we are going to listen to a dialogue about a medical conference. here are two questions for you to think about while you are listening. ill play the tape twice and you are supposed to give the answers and the key words that support your answers."

tell the students the two questions and write them on the blackboard if necessary.

questions: 1. is it a good conference this year? (no.)

2. what is it like? (very disappointing; not as good as last years.)

i. listening (twice)

play the tape for the students to listen to. try asking them to answer the two questions at the end of the first time. if most of them can answer the questions properly, you can let the students repeat the dialogue sentence by sentence at the second time.

ii. answering questions

iii. go through the dialogue

ask the students to underline the expressions of certainty and uncertainty, write them on the blackboard or display them on the screen. ask,

"what do you think the function of these expressions? and when shall we use them?"

"is there any difference?"

the students will definitely say "yes". encourage them to tell which expressions show certainty and which show uncertainty. then ask,

"can you give some more such similar expressions to express certainty and uncertainty?"

put down what the students say or remind them to remember some and put them down on the blackboard. the students should copy the in their textbooks.

a.the expressions of certainty:

im sure…

the expressions of uncertainty:

im not sure

i doubt if…

perhaps…

maybe…

b. how did you find the talk this morning?

how did you like ? / what did you think of ? / what was the talk like…?

iv. practice (group work)

let the students practice the dialogue in groups of two or four while the teacher walks among the students in case there are some questions and problems to answer and settle.

step3 practice (part 2 &3 on page 1)

these two exercises are easy enough for the students to finish in a short time. the teacher should remind and encourage them to make as many proper sentences as possible. e.g.

1 (im sure) +a/b/c/d/e/f/g

step 4 workbook (ex.3, page 73)

homework:

1. ex,2, p73

2. learn the dialogue in lesson 1 by heart.

(for some students whose english is really poor, maybe reading fluently is enough.)
