P13 Standard English and dialects 标准英语和方言（预习课）[课前导读]As we all know, we come from different places and we have different accents(口音，腔调). But on TV and the radio we usually hear people speak differently from us, they speak Putonghua, which is standard Chinese. What we speak is local dialect(地方方言). As a matter of fact,when we communicate with each other using our dialects, we have no trouble (in) understanding one another. Why? Because the differences between them are very little. So when we are learning English, we should not be afraid of speak ing our poor English. Although we speak poor English, people still understand us more or less(大体上，基本上). Then form today, we should try to speak English of our own(属于我们自己的) more and more（越来越多）!Today we are going to learn about Standard English and English dialects [学习目标] 自己能够利用学案排除文章中的新词汇。

高中英语讲课比赛 Standard English and Dialects教学设计
Book 1 Unit 2 Standard English and dialectsTeaching planMaterial analysis and thoughts on design：The topic of this part is “standard English and dialects.” The author mainly deals with what standard English and dialects are and why there are dialects. And this part aims to encourage students to think about standard English and dialects. For this purpose, the students should be trained to use logical thinking and analysis. First, students have to read the text carefully to get the answers and learn to summarize the author’s opinion about standard English and dialects. Then, they should learn how to express their own opinions. I have designed a debate for students to discuss in groups and debate on their opinions. During the process, I think students can actively explore more about standard English and dialects, and cultivate a stronger team spirit. Teaching aims:1.Knowledge aim: get students to know what standard English and dialects are andwhy there are dialects.2.Ability aim: let students learn how to express opinions in English.3.Moral aim: lead students to cultivate team spirit.Important and difficult points:1. Lead students to express their own opinions.2.Help students to practise their English skills of speaking and listening. Teaching Methods:Task-based teachingTeaching procedures:Step I Lead-inVideo learning. Play a video and let students learn about the topic of standard English and dialects.Step II Read and answer1. Let the students read the text and solve three major questions about standard English and dialects.(1) What are standard English and dialects?(2) Why are there dialects?(3) What’s the author’s opinion on standard English and dialects?2. SummarySummarize the text and lead students to form their own opinions on standard English and dialects.Step III Express opinionsLet students have a debate on whether dialects should be replaced by standard English.The positive side: Dialects should be replaced by standard English.The negative side: Dialects shouldn’t be replaced by standard English.1. Show students some pictures to lead them to think.2. Let students discuss for five minutes about what points they would like to express to support their side.3. Begin the debate.4. Conclusion: summarize students’ points and draw a conclusion.Thoughts about a reading lesson:A good reading lesson should not only let students learn English knowledge, but also focus on how to lead students to think in English. With the development of globalization, English is influencing large areas of the world. Chinese students tend to concentrate more energy on reading and writing rather than listening and speaking. Therefore, I have made efforts to lead students to analyze the given information and express their own opinions. In the future, I will consider how to involve more students to show themselves in class.。
