人教版选修7 unit3 Under the sea P1 教学设计
Unit 3 Under the seaPart 1 Teaching Design第一部分教学设计Period 1 A sample lesson plan for reading(Old Tom The Killer Whale)IntroductionIn this period||，after the warming up||，students will first be guided to imagine||，talk and share what they know about festivals. Then they will be helped to read two anecdotes. The reading will be carried out by steps of: pre-reading by defining anecdote||，reading aloud to the recording||，reading for forms||，copying and making sentences||，understanding difficult sentences||，reading and transferring||，reading the text once again for the type of writing and summary of OldTom The Killer Whale and retelling the text in your own words. The period ends in students putting the text on stage.ObjectivesTo help students understand the text’s forms and contents and learn about under the seaTo help students communicate on the topic in focus with the words||，collocations and structures learned in this unitFocusAidsMultimedia facilities||，tape-recorder||，photos||，diagramsProcedures1. Warming up talking about ocean plants and ocean animalsHello||，class. Have you been to the sea? This week we shall go to the sea to learn about ocean plants and animals. What do you know about them?There are two general types of plants found in the ocean||，those having roots that are attached to the ocean bottom and those not having roots which simply drift about with the water. The most abundant plants in the ocean are known as phytoplankton. These are usually single-celled||，minute floating plants that drift throughout the surface waters of the ocean.As for ocean animals||，they are divided into three groups: zooplankton||，nekton||，and benthos. Zooplankton are drifting animals and are usually small||，however||，they can grow to fairly large size. Nekton is the free swimmer and probably the largest portion of familiar animals found in the ocean belonging to this class. The third type of sea animal spends its entire life on or in the ocean bottom.To learn more about ocean and sea||，go to page 20.2. Pre-reading by defining anecdote.We are next to read Old Tom The Killer Whale. It is made up of two anecdotes. Then what is an anecdote? Why do we pay special attention to some experiences and tell about them? Are they true or false? Can they be trusted? Why do we selectively ignore other experiences? These are questions of vital importance for people who consider it important to really learn what is fact and truth.Let's start with a definition:"Anecdote: a usually short narrative of an interesting||，amusing||，or biographical incident."The very fact that we tell anecdotes is that we find them interesting and often personal. They are unusual||，and are often what we have personally experienced or heard about. We wouldn't notice them or bother telling them if they were the norm||，rather than the exception. We use themas reinforcements to shore up our arguments. We use them when we lack proof||，IOW||，for lack of anything better. We also notice them because they may reaffirm some cherished idea we have: "Man prefers to believe what he prefers to be true." —Francis Bacon"Now let’s go to page 20 to read the two anecdotes.3. Reading aloud to the recordingComprehension—understanding what you are reading—is important. To read in thought groups is an easy||，yet effective||，way of improving reading comprehension. Now turn to page 20 and read aloud to the recording of the text Old Tom the Killer Whale. Pay attention to the thought groups in the sentences while listening and reading aloud.4.Reading for formsIn using the context to help you guess unknown vocabulary||，you can refer first to immediate context and then to the wider context in which a word is found. The immediate context is the sentence in which a word is found||，and sometimes the sentences immediately before and after this. The wider context can include other sentences and even other paragraphs in a text. Both forms of context can often provide important information which helps you guess the meaning of unfamiliar words.Read the text again to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups||，blacken the predicates||，darken the connectives and underline all the useful collocations.5. Copying and making sentencesA collocation is two or more words that often go together. These combinations just sound "right" to native English speakers||，who use them all the time.While going over the text||，try to recognize the collocations||，treat them as single blocks of language and copy them out into your Collocation Book.6. Understanding difficult sentencesIn groups of four||，analyze the structure of any of the difficult sentences. If you have any problems which are too difficult for you to solve do not hesitate to put them to me.7.Reading and transferringIn pairs||，read the text||，find information to complete the following form.8. Reading the text once again for the type of writing and summary of Old Tom The Killer WhaleDetermining the type of writing will help you determine the author’s topic (subject)||，purpose (why he is writing)||，style (how he should write) and tone (his attitude toward his subject - supportive||，condemning||，objective||，etc.)It is important to find main ideas when reading. Main ideas help you remember important information. The main idea of a paragraph tells the topic of the paragraph. The topic tells what all or most of the sentences are about. The other sentences in the paragraph are called details. Details describe or explain the main idea. Read the text to find the main idea.Now read the text once again for the type of writing and summary of Old Tom The Killer Whale.Type of writing A narrationSummary of story I witnessed Old Tom||，the killer attacking a whale together with six otherkillers.9. Retelling the text in your own wordsWe are next to retell the text in our own words with the help of table above.10. Closing down by putting the text on stageTo act out is something like to carry out||，to perform or to realize something. Acting out the text is a very good way to improve students’ spoken English.To end this period let’s try to put the text story into a play.。

高中英语优秀教案：设计方案(二)•Unit3 Under the sea教材分析Warming Up provides two activities to spark students' interest in the topic.Of course，before the class，the students must have gathered some information to make preparations for this class.Many kinds of their favorite sea animals are presented in their vivid pictures.Students are encouraged to introduce them using some new expressions such as at an aquarium，on a snorkelling trip.Pre－reading is designed to further stimulate their interest in the topic of the unit.Meanwhile，students may have some basic information about the text.The reading passage Old Tom the Killer Whale tells about two anecdotes witnessed by the writer himself.The teacher can first get students to skim the text for the characters in the two anecdotes and get the main idea of each anecdote.Then let them scan for further understanding.In order to let students pay attention to the writer's vivid description，the teacher can ask them to do a blank－filling exercise in pairs to find out some key verbs and verb phrases.Having done this，students must have had a very clear understanding of the whole hunting and saving process.To make their understanding easier，the teacher should deal with any language problems while they are reading.And then underline some useful words and expressions.For further thinking，students are expected to work in pairs or groups.They will discuss the problems and work out the answers cooperatively，choosing a reporter in their group.Students will think actively，so various answers are possible.To consolidate the contents of the reading passage，students should be required to retell the passage in the name of Old Tom or the baleen whale or James with as many key words as possible.At the end of the class，by holding a debate，the teacher can arouse students' interest further as well as make them aware of the relationship between man and animals and the importance of banning whaling.三维目标知识目标1．Get students to learn the useful new words and expressions in this part：anecdote，annual，witness，accommodation，shore，opposite，yell，pause，telescope，teamwork，dive，depth，lip，urge，abandon，shark，relationship，help...out.2．Let students learn

relationship between man and animals and the importance of banning whaling.3．Develop students' sense of cooperative learning.教学重点1．Reading comprehension to the text.2．Learning more about the killer whales and understanding the relationship between the killer whales and the whalers.3．Important words and expressions.教学难点1．The relationship between the killer whales and the whalers.2．Develop students' reading ability.教学方法1．Individual，pair and group work.2．Task－based teaching and learning.3．Quiz，discussion，blank－filling，retelling，debate.教学工具 A computer and a projector.教学过程Step 1Warming up1．Ask some students to show some pictures of their favorite sea animals and introduce them to the class.The introduction should cover these aspects：·The English and Chinese name of your favorite sea animal.·Where did you find it?·Some features of it，its distribution，or living condition.Anything about it is welcome.·Why do you like it?Sample introduction：①My favorite sea animal is dolphins(海豚)．I found them at an aquarium this summer holiday.Dolphins are very meek(温顺的)．Neither as timid animals in virgin forests who run away immediately they discover a stranger，nor as beasts in remote mountains who bare fangs and brandish claws the moment they encounter a person，dolphins are always friendly with people.Dolphins and human beings have been on friendly terms all along.I like dolphins，because dolphins are truly intellectual.They can even imitate some people's voice after a period of training.Yet，dolphins have intelligence different from common animals.The volume and mass of their brain are among the most considerable in the animal world.Up to the present moment，scientists have two different views on animals' intelligence：one is that of all animals，chimps are the most intellectual and capable；another is that chimps are no more capable of studying than dolphins，and it is probable that dolphins are more intellectual than chimps.Therefore，some people consider dolphins as “wizards in the sea”．When mentioning dolphins，people will probably speak highly of their supernormal intelligence and ability.In that aquarium，it is common that dolphins are giving a wonderful performance by following the trainer's instructions.They seem to be capable of understanding what mankind expresses and taking actions according to the instructions.At present，the majority of people marvel at dolphins' supernormal intelligence as a kind of sea animal.But to what extent can dolphins' intelligence and ability achieve？It remains to be probed and researched.②My favorite sea animal is tropical fish(热带鱼)．I found them on a snorkelling trip.I was attracted by its colorful appearance.In the half an hour's trip from the shore，I found coral reefs，tropical fish and other marine life.Excitedly，I bought some fishes home.It was my first time to raise tropical fish.One month ago m y friend told me that tropical fish are easier to raise than the golden fish.Her words let me think of another friend of mine.He is raising tropical fish.I am feeding four categories of tropical fish.Two black marry，eight peacocks，another two fishes，although I don't know their names，are the most beautiful.The peacock is the smallest and isn't colorful as I have seen in other places before.My friend told me they will be beautiful when they grow up.So I put the eight peacock fish into a small fish jar.I observes them every day and is expecting them to be bigger and more colorful.Two of the four big tropical fishes have died including the beautiful one.Perhaps the beautiful fish's life is fragile.If it is true，then I don't expect the small peacocks to turn beautiful.I shouldn't be so greedy to want both.That they just havestrong life is enough for me.2．The teacher show the picture of a killer whale and do a small quiz about it.(1)What's the Chinese and English name of this whale?虎鲸Killer whales(2)Can you match these whales with their Chinese and English names？(Show students some pictures of different whales.)baleen whale 须鲸 sperm whale抹香鲸blue whale 蓝鲸 white whale白鲸(3)Which of these kinds of whales can grow to be the largest?Blue whales 蓝鲸(about 21－27m in length,100－120tons in weight)(4)Humans have been hunting whales for more than __A__ years.A．2000 B．1000 C．500(5)Will the killer whales attack people and eat them？No.(6)Does a female killer whale give birth to a baby whale or lay eggs？Give birth to a baby whale.(7)What does a newly－born baby killer whale feed on？__C__A．Small sea animals. B．Sea plants. C．Its mother's milk.(8)Do the killers belong to the family of dolphins or whales？Dolphins.(9)Male killer whales have a life expectancy of __B__ years，while females can live as long as __D__ years.A．40－50 B．50－60 C．60－70 D．80－90(10)Killers are highly social animals that travel in groups called pods(群)．Pods usually consist of __A__ whales.A．2－50 B．20－50 C．30－60(11)How many sounds can a killer whale make？62 sounds.(12)Are killers endangered species and in need of conservation？No.(13)The killer whales are sometimes calle d the “__A__ of the sea” because they are both very fierce.A．wolf B．dog C．tigerStep 2Pre－reading1．Read the words in Pre－reading on Page 19 quickly and fill in the form.een whale.Step 3Skimming1．Glance through the two anecdotes and use one sentence to get the main idea of each anecdote.Main ideas：Anecdote one：The killer whales helped the whalers to catch a baleen whale.Anecdote two：Old Tom saved a whaler James.2．Fill in the blanks with the n ames of the roles in the text.(1)______was 16 years of age when he went to work at the whaling station.(2)______orderd Clancy to go to the boat as there was a whale out there in the bay.(3)______was swimming by the boat showing the whalers the way.(4)______told Clancy that they would return the next day to bring in the body of the whale.(5)______was carried by the waves further and further away from the whalers.(6)______knew that Old Tom would protect James.Suggested answers：(1)Clancy (2)George (3)Old Tom (4)Jack (5)James (6)RedStep 4Scanning1．Read these two anecdotes carefully and find out some verbs or verb phrases to do the blank－filling worksheet.Anecdote one：There was perfect cooperation between the whalers and the killer whales.Before the huntThe killers' action：Threw_itself out_of the water and then crashed_down again.Swam_by the boat，showing the whalers the way.Circled back to the boat, leading the whalers to the hunt.The whalers' reaction：A whaler yelled out. George ran ahead_of_ clancy.Clancy raced_after him.They jumped_into_the boat with the other whalers and headed_out into the bay.During and after the huntThe killers' action：A pack of killers are throwing_themselves on top of the whale's blow－hole to_stop it breathing；some others are stopping it fleeing_out to sea.The killers started racing_between the whalers' boat and the whale，justlike a pack of excited dogs.Within a moment or two，the whale's body was dragged_down_into the depths of the sea.The whalers' reaction：The man in the bow of the boat aimed a harpoon at the whale and let it go to hit the spot.Started turning the boat around to go home.Anecdote two：The dangers facing James：(1)He was washed_off_the boat and was carried_away_by rough waves.(2)There was a shark out there.The help offered by Old Tom：(1)Old Tom wouldn't_let_the shark near.(2)Old Tom firmly held James up in the water.2．Reading aloud and underlining expressions.Students read the text aloud to the tape and underline all the expressions in the text.Put them down into their notebooks after class as homework.Suggested answers：Collections：at the time，witness sth.with one's own eyes many times，sort out my accommodation，in time to do sth.，crash down，yell out，ahead of，flee out to sea，aim at，let sth.go，be dragged swiftly down into the depths of the sea，in the meantime，have a good feed on sth.，be carried further and further away，be firmly held up in the water3．Reading，identifying and settling.Students skim the text once again and identify the difficult sentences.Let them try analyzing the structures of the difficult sentences and discuss them among their group members.They may also turn to the teacher for help.·...George didn't like being kept waiting...·...I could see a whale being attacked by a pack of about six other killers.·Being badly wounded，the whale soon died.·...I could see he was terrified of being abandoned by us.Step 5DiscussionAfter the students read the passage，ask them to discuss the following questions in groups and then report to the class.1．Why has the killer whale got the name Old Tom?2．Do you like killer whales？Why or why not?Suggested answers：1．Old Tom is a person's name.In my opinion，the reasons why the killer in the text is called so may be two.For one thing，the killer that showed the whalers the way to the hunt and saved James must be a male killer whale because Tom is a man's name.For another，the whalers called it Old Tom，just as they were calling a man.That is to say，the whalers treated it as their dear friend.In the meantime，the killer itself must be very friendly to the whalers and helped them a lot in hunting in the sea.In return，the killer can get part of the baleen whale as its food.So to some extent，the whalers and killers are depending on each other.They cooperated well and lived in harmony with one another.2．I like killer whales because when James fell off the boat，the killer whale not only protected him from being drowned but also wouldn't let the shark near.They are so clever and friendly to human beings.What's more，they worked as a team，which should be learned by us when we are working.I don't like them.Though they are clever and friendly to us，they are too fierce.To my great surprise，they should eat the flesh of another whale.I could hardly believe it.I have never heard of one animal killing his families and even eating their meat.How pitiful it is!Step 6Further－thinking1．What else do you think is amazing in the story？Show your evidence.2．What is an anecdote?Suggested answers：1．I think it is so amazing that we human beings should use one animal to attack or hunt another animal even his own family members，just like dogs that help hunters hunt animals.I think that the killer will return the body of the baleen whale instead of keeping it or eating it up is very amazing.But I guess the killer whales are just fond of the taste of the baleen whale's lips and tongue.Or they just want to share it with the whalers in return for their cooperation.2．According to the text，as far as I am concerned，an anecdote must be an exciting or amazing story.Step 7ConsolidationAsk students to retell the pass age with the help of their worksheet.1．Please retell either of the two anecdotes in the name of Old Tom，the baleen whale or James.Your anecdote should at least consist of two paragraphs：Paragraph one：about the writer，time，place and what happenedParagraph two：detailed information about the anecdoteStep 8DebateThe last whaling station in Australia closed in 1978.Whales are now an endangered species and protected by an international ban，but some countries oppose the ban.In groups discuss the reasons for and against banning whaling.Step 9Homework1．Write down the useful new words and expressions，then learn them by heart.2．Write down an anecdote in the name of Old Tom，the baleen whale or James.。
