上海新世纪6BU2 英语写作教学活动设计案例一

New Century English 6B

Unit Two Traffic and Traffic Rules

Lesson 2 Means of Transport

Means of Transport

【教材分析】

本课写作主题是交通工具。要求学生写6-7句话介绍日常生活中使用的交通工具，并对不同交通方式进行比较。

【学情分析】

学生非常熟悉交通工具这一话题。在对不同交通方式进行比较时会涉及到形容词比较级的用法，预备班学生对此不是很熟练，因此是本写作任务中的难点。

【教学目标】

By the end of the activities, the students are expected

●to be able to change the dialogue into a narrative paragraph.

●to use the proper forms of adjectives to compare different means of transport.

●to describe suitable means of transport for a trip.

【教学活动设计】

Activity 1Brainstorming

What means of transport do you know?

设计说明：此活动的目的是激活学生背景知识，呈现交通工具的有关词汇，通过朗读、图片文字配对练习来扫清写句任务中的词汇障碍。

Activity 2Ask and answer

1. What means of transport do you often use?

2. How do you usually go to school?

3. Why do you like to go to school by bus/bike/on foot……?

4. Which is more expensive, traveling by light rail or by taxi?

5. Which do you like better, traveling by air or by train? Why?

设计说明：通过问答，使学生能初步谈论日常生活中使用的交通工具，并初步能使用形容词的比较级形式对交通工具作比较和评论。

Activity 3Pair work

Make dialogues after the model.

Model:

John: Where shall we go for the summer holiday?

Betty: Shall we go to Beijing? There are many interesting places there.

John: But I think it’s too far from here. I’d like to go to Nanjing. It’s nearer, and there are also many interesting places there.

Betty: But how shall we go there?

John: I think we can go by train. It’s safer.

Betty: I’ d like to travel by plane. It’s faster and more comfortable.

John: But that’s more expensive.

Betty: Well then, shall we go by coach? It’s both cheaper and safer, and it’s very convenient. We can enjoy the view on the way.

John: That’s a good idea.

Word box:

convenient, comfortable, expensive, cheap, interesting, beautiful, fast, slow, safe, enjoy the view on the way

设计说明：通过机械模仿和替换操练情景对话，掌握谈论交通工具的基本句型和使用形容词比较级来描述不同交通工具的性能。

Activity 4 Group work

Work in groups of four to change the above dialogue into a narrative paragraph.

Fill in the blanks with the information from the dialogue.

are talking about their summer holiday plan. Betty to go to Beijing, but John wants to go to Nanjing because it’s and there are also many interesting places there. John wants to go there by because . Betty thinks it’s faster and more comfortable to go by . However, John thinks it’s . Finally they decide to go to Nanjing by because it’s and it’s . They can enjoy the view on the way as well.

设计说明：此项活动通过填空形式降低难度,帮助学生将对话改写成陈述性的语段；教师可视学生基础增加或减少填空的格数，内容重点为交通方式和形容词的比较级。可先进行小组讨论，然后汇总并口头朗读操练。人称改变和动词形式的变化是难点。

Activity 5Writing practice

Write a short paragraph（six or seven sentences）introducing your choice of means of transport when going on a holiday trip.

During the summer holiday I’m going to take a trip to …

设计说明：此活动要求学生当堂写6—7句话，描述自己外出旅行时交通方式的选择并说明理由；进一步巩固表达交通方式的句型和形容词比较级的正确使用。写完后教师利用投影仪作集体讲评和修改,对典型错句作分析，并进行跟进性训练。

【作业布置】

Write a short paragraph（six or seven sentences）introducing your father’s (or your friend’s) means of transport when going on a trip.

设计说明：此写作任务可作为课外作业，要求学生用第三人称描述外出旅行时对交通方式的选择，并使用比较级表达不同交通方式的特点。人称改变后动词形式的变化应是难点，教师在批改后应作集体讲评。
