初中英语_Myfavoritesubjectisscience教学设计学情分析教材分析课后反思
教学设计总体设计思路:整个单元的教学我们是围绕着学科和星期的表达为主线的,Section A 是有关学科的表达,询问和回答最喜欢的学科和喜欢的原因。
Section B是有关星期的表达。
在课时的安排上我们基本按照了教材的编排思路和顺序,并在课时安排的过程中做了一些调整。
主要是在最后一节写作课中,我们把self-check 作为写作课上对前面内容的复习作为导入,并开始写前活动。
分析:本课时unit 9 的第一课时,在本单元的教学中起导入作用。
教学目标是让学生掌握并学会运用学科的表达方式并且学会运用有what 引导的特殊疑问句。
本课时主要以听说为主进行教学,为本单元接下来的语言学习和运用打基础。
课型:听说输入时间:45分钟教学目标:1. 认知目标(1)key vocabularyMath, science, P.E, history,geography, art, music, computer(2)key structureWhat is your favorite subject?My favorite subject is …Why do you l ike…?Because it is…2.能力目标(1)communicative function: to ask questions and talk something about subjects (2)language skills: listening and oral skills(3)learning strategies: cooperative learning, apperceive, experience3.情感目标Tell the students to learn their subjects well and love their teachers 教学方法:task-based language teaching method, situational and communicative approach, video-audio method ,cooperation.教学过程:Teaching steps Name of the task Teacher’s activities Students’ activitiesStep 1Lead in :guessing gameToday,we will learn Unit9 My favorite subject is science.And then show the new unit: my favorite subject is science. Students listen to the teacher’s question and answer the question s,guessing the teacher likes. Purpose 通过一个有趣的问题引起学生的兴趣,同时可以帮助学生复习过去学过的句型:my favorite fruit is …很自然地引出今天的学习课题。

听说课的主要学习活动: 1. 情境中导入。在学习词汇的过程中,进一步实践感知回忆、联想、 想象等识记策略。同时,自然渗透 u, o, y 及 ar, er,等字母及字母组合 的教学。由于这一活动任务难度较低,活动中最大限度地关注学困生, 尽量多地给他们表现的机会,对他们好的表现及时给予肯定和鼓励, 充分发挥评价的激励作用,激发他们的参与热情和学习的积极性,教 学中真正实现面向“全体学生”。 2.活动中感知:学生通过参与头脑风暴活动,扩展更多的话题功能句 和词汇,在活动中感知、理解所学词汇和句式。通过看一看、猜一猜, 听一听,做一做、听一听、说一说等活动,学生在一系列对话情景活 动中感知、理解所学主要话题功能句及生词的意义。听录音前,通过 观看 PPT 呈现的图片及浏览相关文字信息,体验、训练“预测听力 相关内容”的听力学习策略。同时,进一步训练在泛听、精听过程中 抓关键句的听力学习策略。在一系列的感知和理解活动中,充分利用 生生间学习水平差异这一资源,注意发挥优等生的引领作用,通过让 他们说完成任务的思路,向其他学生展示他们学习过程中运用的有效 学习方法和策略,逐步引导学生在学习过程中相互借鉴学习,从而实 现学会学习。 3. 训练中巩固: 通过看一看,说一说、想一想、编一编等训练,学生 在一系列对话情景和训练中进一步感知、理解、内化、巩固所学新的 语言知识。对新知形成语感,达到熟练掌握。 4. 运用中提高:创设情景,(学生)自编对话。如:澳大利亚联谊校

Pretty soon, you might get to do both at the same time, in true Harry Potter style. Several companies are racing to produce electronic paper and ink, complete with colors and moving imagines. One idea would be to create a newspaper like The Daily Project in the Harry Potter books. Its pages would hold video clips of baseball games instead of just black-and-white photos.Electronic paper is not a new idea. A company in Massachusetts called E ink, for example, has been working for years on such a technology. Little electricity determines(决定)whether eachmicrosphere(灌球)looks black or white at any given time. Together, microspheres make up words and imagines. The techniques seems promising for creating still imagines that can be changed when needed, but the process(进程)is too slow for good videos.Scientists in the Netherlands now report a new type of e-paper technology. By using layers(层) of oil, the requirements. They can also make images which change fast enough to meet standard video requirements. They can also make brilliant colors,. So far, however, each image is smaller than the fingernail.For now, reading and watching TV will have to return two separate activities. Keep your eyes open, though, in the future, TV watching and reading might be part of the same work. 31.(小题1)According to the passage, kids soon can _______.A.be allowed to watch TV B.watch TV while doing their homeworkC.watch Harry Potter on TV D.be allowed to read a newspaper32.(小题2)Several companies are racing to _____ .A.Make the Harry Potter TV program B.create a newspaper like the The Daily Project C.provide baseball games for kids D.produce electronic paper with colors and moving images33.(小题3)What determines the black and white color of each microsphere? A.Images B.Electricity C.Oil and ink D.Fingernail34.(小题4)Which of the following in NOT true?A.Electronic paper is not a new idea.B.Microspheres make up words and images .C.Now TV watching and reading is part of the same work.D.Scientists use layers of oil in a new research.Have you ever heard someone use the phrase” once in a blue moon” People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat chocolate” once in a blue moon”. Or someone who does not usually like to go to the beach might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon.”While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it.The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue. This is just an expression. In fact, the phrase” blue moon” has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color.As the moon travels around the earth, it appears to change shape. We associate certain names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip of a fingernail when we cannot see the moon at all; it is called a new moon.When we can see the whole moon is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a blue moon”.Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare event. This fact has led people to use the expression” once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.35.Which of the following would be a good example of using the phrase” once in a blue moon”.A.Simon often tells jokes. Simon tells jokes once in a blue moon.B.Tom rarely remembers to do exercise. Tom does exercise once in a blue moon. C.Mary likes to go shopping every weekend. Mary goes shopping once in a blue moon. D.Cindy hates to stay up, but she stays up every day. Cindy stays up once in a blue moon. 36.When does a blue moon happen in natureA.When the moon has a blue moon.B.When we cannot see the moon at all. C.When there are two full moons in one month.D.When we can only see a small part of the color.37.Which of the following is another example of something that has a crescent shape A.The letter “O”B.The letter “M”C.The letter “H”D.The letter “C”四、书面表达共1小题,共20分。
