牛津高中英语教学设计

单元：Unit 2 Wish you were here

板块：Welcome to the unit

Thoughts on the design:

本节课是以看、听、说为主的口语教学课。英语口语课的教学任务是培养学生口头表达和交际的能力。如何搞好英语口语教学、培养学生的英语交际能力是实现英语学科教学目的的要害。美国心理学家布鲁纳认为：“成功的外语课堂教学应在课堂内创设更多的情景，让学生有机会运用自己学到的语言材料。”本单元内容是关于冒险及旅游的，本节课将利用电脑多媒体手段，以视听的形式给学生介绍世界各地的风光，营造英语教学的真实情景，提高学生运用英语进行交流信息和思想感情的能力，并为本单元后续内容的教学作知识和能力的铺垫。
