一、教材分析

主题公园作为人类文明的一大体现，作为当今社会人们主要休闲、娱乐方式之一，是一个非常贴近生活、具有时代性、可深度挖掘的教学主题。本单元以主题公园为背景，围绕a world of fun 这一主题开展听、说、读、写多种教学活动。单元语言素材涉及过山车、蹦极运动、自由落体车、赛车等娱乐方式及各类主题公园的不同特色，具有很强的时代气息，贴近学生生活，有利于学生了解生活、运动与休闲，了解中外文化，增强世界意识，有利于培养积极的生活态度。

本单元的Warming up部分以图片形式引入本单元的话题之一：amusement parks;并通过师生或生生自由问答，让学生了解并交流个体各类活动方面的体验、喜好及理由，从而引出话题amusement parks 和theme parks,为听力部分和阅读部分作必要的铺垫。

Listening提供一个会议事例：在我市建一个主题公园的招标大会上，Fun Fun Productions and Merry Rides Limited两个不同特色公司的代表人发表演说表达各自优势以争取承建权。在听音之前需要作恰当的导入，听时做课文1、2部分，听后再作小组讨论：选择哪一家公司作为承建商及给出相应的理由。这一话题具有社会性，时代性特点，在课堂上可以激发学生模拟真实语境进行创造性对话活动。

Speaking紧紧围绕“问路与指路”话题： 课内提供一张公园平面图，学生根据出发点和目的地的联系进行有意义的对话实践。Post-speaking内容扩展至生活实际情况。

Reading是一篇介绍主题公园的说明文。它包括主题公园的定义、特点，同时介绍了the World Park of China, the Ocean Park of Hong Kong, Disneyland in California三个不同的主题公园，引导学生了解和比较主题公园的不同主题，激发学生联想主题公园的未来发展。Post-reading部分鼓励学生自行设计主题公园活动，鼓励学生积极想象、培养创新能力。

文章结构思路如下：

高三英语教案全套2

一. 总述

课题：运动与奥林匹克(高一上册第八单元)

内容：热身，听力，口语

课型：听说课

二. 说教材

1. 教材的地位和作用

本单元教材在本册书中有极其重要的地位，在学生整体的知识结构中也有着不可或缺的作品：早在建国初期，体育英语显示了他重要的作用(乒乓外交);在现在，经济发展和SARS的入侵，人人注重体育锻炼，身体健康成为人们茶余饭后的重要话题(全民健身);在未来，北京举办2008奥运会，(志愿者)。

2. 教材重点的确立

重点为-----热身 热身一向是容易被忽略的部分，但我却有着不同的观点①引入本单元知识，带学生进入一个丰富多彩的体育世界。②介绍有关体育的基础知识，激发学生对体育的兴趣方面也起着重要的作用。从而提高学生对本单元知识学习的兴趣③引入大量本单元有关体育的新单词，为后面听说读写个方面奠定良好的基础(配课件图——根基最重要)总之，是要通过以激活学生已有的相关背景知识，补充必要和新的背景知识，以启发学生对话题的思考，同时，还为学生归纳和总结已有的语言知识，并为其预测，了解和讨论话题做了铺垫。

3. 教材难点的确立

难点为----听力

听力历来都是英语学习者很难突破的瓶颈 原因：发音部位和技巧的不同;历史文化背景的不同;词汇量的限制;练习机会较少

本课：体育赛事新闻 原因：语速较快;个人兴趣影响(背景知识的限制)

4. 通过本课教材要达到的教学目标(与新课标结合

文化意识：了解体育和奥运的基本文化知识

语言知识：掌握有关体育方面的大量单词及短语

能力策略：能从复杂的听力材料中快速的获取有效信息;灵活运用所学知识加强口语表达能力

情感态度：加强学生对体育知识以及体育锻炼的兴趣;通过介绍2008北京奥运的知识，培养其爱国主义情感

二. 说教学

1. 学法的指导

以“我”为心，注重能力，积极参与，总结分析

以“我”为心：在学习中不要以教师为中心，要使学生真正成为学习的主体。在日常生活中练习英语的机会较少，课堂教学就成了向学生提供可理解性语言输入的一个重要渠道，如果在这的渠道中还只以教师为中心，放弃了自己的学习机会，则无法达到良好的学习效果。

注重能力：让学生注重能力的提高，而不仅仅是知识的记忆。目前很多英语课上教师讲得过多，学生练的太少;学生也没有从思想上认识到，英语应该是一门实践课，是一种“技能”的培养，而不是“知识”的获取。我们应该尽可能使学生的注意力转移到信息和沟通上，而不是使用语言的形式上。

积极参与：充分调动学生参与课堂活动的积极性，并尽可能多的为学生创造独立思考的机会。在教师的指引下，多设置课堂活动，让学生在活动中知道，外语是自己学会的，练会的，而不是老师交会的。

总结分析：培养学生在丰富多彩的课堂活动后，学会自己总结所得到东西，使其自己悟出其中的道理，并总结学习方法。是与新课标所提到的学生自我评价体系相结合的过程。着重评价学生的综合语言运用能力，以及在学习过程中表现出的情感，态度和价值观。作为教师应该帮助学生设立自我评价的平台，尽力将评价体系具体和量化。(话题：国际奥运委员会要来我校参观，会询问你一些关于我国的全民健身和申办奥运的情况。)

2. 教学方法的选择及运用

①情景教学法：由我国特级教师李吉林创造。指导教师在教学过程中为学生创造一个具体，生动，形象的学习环境，以激发学生的兴趣，产生一定的内心情感体验，促进对知识的理解，记忆，并受到思想情感的陶冶。

②愉快教学法：是教师在教学过程中充分利用学生的好奇，疑问，求美，成就的心理特点，从教材的实际和学生的知识水平出发。列举趣味性的事例，提出引人入胜的问题，以激发学生的兴趣，求知欲望，提高学习效率。以兴趣为突破口，化难为易。

③暗示教学法：又称启发式外语教学法。首先，要求教师要善于设置诱发学生学习潜力的外部环境，激发学生的动机。其次，适当的采用音乐，电影等艺术途径，特别是发挥声调，节奏，音乐的刺激与感染作用，加强教学的情感效果

自己使用：自己综合，补充完善-----两点一线，四个方面

3.配合课件说明两点一线,四个方面的具体运用(重点的突破和难点的化解,以及学生活动的组织)

总原则：两点一线，四个方面

⑴ 两点：将课本的知识点与师生的兴趣点紧密结合

第一层面：着重使课本的知识点和学生的兴趣点结合起来。所有智力方面的工作都要依赖兴趣。只有充分调动学生的兴趣，才能培养学生自觉，主动学习英语的习惯。作为教师应该运用灵活的教学手段和方法，用兴趣的火花去点燃学生智慧的火焰。

第二层面：教师自己兴趣调动。言教不如身教，只有自己投入到教材中去，才能感染更多的学生。对与那些本身对体育感兴趣的学生，知趣相投，更容易投入到课堂中来。(体育生)对于那些本身对体育不太感兴趣的学生，要发挥教师本人和教学环境的感染力，去吸引他们投入到其中来。总之，教师全身心投入教材，是建立良好师生关系的必要条件，是调动学生学习兴趣的重要前提，也是教师传授知识的桥梁和润滑剂。

下面是结合课件展示我是如何集体将课堂内容的三个部分与兴趣点想结合的。

本课的知识第一部分为热身训练，这也是本节课的重点所在。我采取的是利用兴趣来突破重点。具体的方法是“两个游戏，解决难题”。

首先是让学生通过第一个游戏来进行自我测评即设计一些有关体育方面的选择，判断正误，以及问答题，每答对一道题就会得到相应的分数，然后根据最后的总分来判断自己对体育的了解到底有多少。从而让学生大量的了解有关体育和奥运的知识，当然在选题方面要简单并与学生的兴趣息息相关，比如北京申办奥运等。每道题都涉及到了一些本单元的新单词，在答题的过程中学生就掌握了相关单词，并激发了他们对体育和奥运的兴趣。通过第一个游戏我也基本的了解了班里每个学生对体育的兴趣水平(感染力)，更加有利与用自己的兴趣去感染学生。

由于本单元的单词很多都是体育项目的名称，学生在记忆时有一定的困难，因此我设计了第二个游戏，以学生一些耳熟能详的体育明星为突破口，由此让学生记忆他们所从事的体育项目。这样就解决了一些新单词的引入问题。

通过两个游戏我即完成了热身部分的教学任务，也完成了对教学重点的突破。

本课的第二部分时听力，这一部分主要是提高学生在听力过程中捕捉有效信息的能力，由此能听懂体育新闻及体育赛事的比赛结果。

听力是英语学习中比较枯燥的部分，但也是本节课的难点，在课堂上是学生最容易忽视的部分。我依旧是通过调动学生兴趣的方法来解决这一难题的。具体的措施有两点：①加强对每段听力背景知识的介绍，寻找听力内容与学生兴趣的结合点。例如在听NBA比赛之前，我先让学生自己介绍他们喜欢的球队。在这一部分学生有很多话可说，但用英语表达就显的颇为牵强了，于是我介绍了一些知名球队的英语表达法并介绍了一些有关篮球的专业术语(盖帽，扣蓝等)，从而提升了他们对NBA的兴趣，并扩展了知识和单词量，也在无形之中将本段听力的背景知识介绍给了学生。②加强听力技巧上的指导。让学生区别有效信息和干扰信息，尽力捕捉有效信息，例如听体育赛事的新闻要注重球队名称，比分输赢等。从而减少学生在听力过程中的盲目性。

通过听力背景知识的趣味性介绍和听力技巧上的指导，使学生在轻松愉快的气氛中，完成了听力部分的学习，并化解了本课的难点。

第三部分是口语练习。这一部分主要使学生能用所学的单词和句型通顺介绍自己喜爱的运动明星和运动。重点是让学生有话可说，有话能说。

有话可说主要是让学生找到自己感兴趣的话题。于是我以NBA明星迈克尔?乔丹为例，让学生能在自己最熟悉，最喜爱的明星身上找到共同话题，做到有话可说。但有话能说是对学生语言驾御能力的考验，在这一部分我是在学生零星的发言基础上，总结出对乔丹的介绍，并突出了其中的重点单词和句型，让学生在后面的发言中可以有所借鉴，使他们有话能说。

总之，在本课内容的各个部分我都加强了学生兴趣点与课本知识点的结合，以兴趣为突破口来带动学生情绪，突破教学难点。并使学生整堂课都能被所学知识吸引，激发其对英语学习的兴趣，并且学生活动的组织也是始终贯穿在其中的，突出了课堂的主体是学生。

⑵ 一线：就是让体育和奥运的主线始终贯穿与课堂之上，听说读写都以运动和奥运为主轴。做到由景生情，以情带义(解释)。这样即突出了教材的连贯性，也创造了层层递进的条件，使学生对此方面的知识更系统，更完整，此外还有利于培养学生热爱运动和积极从事体育锻炼的热情。

⑶ 四个方面：听，说，读，写

从个体来看： 听、说、读、写是语言学习不可缺少的四个方面，每一个各体在教学的过程中都必须涉及到。所以在本课之中，我尽力使学生在四个方面都有所练习，但由于本课是一节听说课，那么在四个方面要有侧重，以听说为主，读写为辅。

听和说已经在前面有所介绍，以下主要介绍我是如何将读和写两个方面溶入我的课堂中的。阅读主要是体现在阅读听力的背景知识以及说话练习的示范性总结中。而写的方面我则布置成为了作业，让学生写一篇自己喜爱的运动明星的介绍。这既是对课堂所学知识的延伸，也弥补了课堂时间上的不足，可以让每个学生都能充分的得到练习。

从整体来看：听，说，读，写四个方面有是一个有机的整体，是相互关联，相互影响的。每一个部分都不可能是单独存在的，必将会涉及到其它的几个方面。在教学的过程中要突出更方面知识的连带性，使学生全面的提高语言水平，断不可只见树木，不见森林。

这就是我整体的说课过程，其中还有很多的缺点和不足，希望大家给与批评指正。谢谢!

三.说课件

1.课件制作原则：充分准备，合理选材，巧妙呈现，精心制作，正确把握

充分准备:：

合理选材：选取材料应符合学生的年龄特点和知识特点

巧妙呈现：多媒体的运用使呈现部分达到效果

精心制作：力求课件灵活多变，流畅自然，雅而不俗，赏心悦目

2.正确把握：正确把握多媒体在课堂中的运用，切记华而不实，反客为主

课件制作构想：辅助为先，两个体现

辅助为先：课堂教学内容的辅助

两个体现：1.体现“一线“

1. 体现三部分内容的自然过渡

课件主要是对课堂知识的辅助讲解，但我在制作过程中努力使其体现我教材处理的原则。首先，使体现“一线”。用颜色和装饰体现运动和奥运的主线。在颜色方面选择了与五环旗相应的颜色，并用奥运和五环的图标作为装饰，充分体现课堂主线。其次，用自然的课件顺序，使教材的三部分内容自然衔接，顺利过渡。

.教材解读(Material Interpretation) 通常人们忌讳“只见树木，不见森林”，然而这里我们姑且就一个单元这只林片木来想象一下那片充满神奇的森林。从某种意义上说，这或许正是这套教材的编写者们的用意所在。高一英语新教材的编写依然以单元为单位，但每个单元打破了呆板的块状设计，换之于流畅的线型流程，为课堂教学的灵活组织留下了更大的空间。

整个教材体现了Communicative Curriculum的指导思想。每个单元以功能为主题，话题为支撑，结构为平台，任务为载体，意义交流为目的，充分体现了语言运用的基本思路，为任务型课堂教学构建了框架，注重提高学生用英语获取信息、处理信息、分析和解决问题的能力，发展学生与人沟通和合作的能力。

本单元的主题是Technology，中心话题为Hi-tech,话题本身具有强烈的时代气息，贴近学生的实际生活，符合学生的认知水平，在学生中有较强的认同感。这一单元的交际功能项目(Functional Item)有两个：

1. Describing things

2. Expressing agreement & disagreement。

结构项目(Structure)为The Present Continuous Passive Voice;主要能力项目为Reading 和Writing，其中一个阅读正篇，两个Language Input, 要求学生学会阅读并在阅读中培养根据上下文或构词法理判断词义的能力，同时学会写信并在信中阐述问题的症结，发表自己的观点。拓展项目为如何运用高科技获取更多英语信息，提升英语学习，并探究科技为人类带来便利的同时可能存在的负面影响以及消除这些影响的解决办法。

二 教学目标(Instructional Objectives) 通过教学，学生能描绘一些日常用品(如第一课时的A Guessing Game 和Describing and Drawing)，发现一些问题，发表个人观点，努力解决问题(如第二课时的Problems and Solutions，Role Play和A TV Chitchat Program: Help is on the Way);能学会与他人交流和合作(如第三课时中的Designing and advertising a new model of cell phone for Chinese high school students);能学会寻找适当渠道解决实际问题(如第四课时中的A Letter of Complaint to the Headmaster);能自己学会学习，在学习中建立输入假设，在实践中验证假设，并最后修正假设(如第四课时的对The Present Continuous Passive Voice的学习);能懂得基本的一些学习策略，并运用这些策略提高在一定的context 中对一些较难词义的推断能力(如第五课时中的Word and Strategy);能运用高科技获取更多英语信息，提升自己的英语学习(如第三课时中的Story Sharing和第六课时的Essay Writing);能探究高科技为人类带来文明和便利的同时可能存在的负面影响以及消除这些影响的解决办法(如第五课时中的Talk about the advantages and disadvantages of cellphones, robots, computers etc.);能在研究性的学习中进行自我反思，培养公民意识、社会责任感和全球观念(如第五课时中的A Probe into the Cause of Teenagers’ Addiction to Cyber Café和第六课时中的To Be a Technology-driven Human or not to Be);能在不断的反思中领悟并懂得人类追求高科技的根本目的，倡导人与人之间的友爱和真情(如第六课时中的写给未来控制了人类的巨能电脑Q12 的题为Love is the Everlasting Topic of the World的信)。

Lesson Plan Interpretation

NSEFC Book1 Unit3 Travel Journal

Hello, everyone. It’s an honor for me to stand here and interpret my lesson. The lesson plan I am going to talk about is from NSEFC Book 1 Unit 3 Travel Journal. I’ll explain how to teach and why do so from the following 5 aspects: the theoretical basis, understanding of the teaching material, teaching methods and studying ways, teaching procedure, blackboard design.

Ⅰ. The theoretical basis

First, I’d like to show my theoretical basis--schema theory and top-down model (Goodman, 1971). Journey down the Mekong is a reading course. According to schema theory, reading comprehension is an interactive process between the reader’s background knowledge and the text (Carrel and Eisterhold, 1983), or between the new information and the old knowledge store (Anderson and Pearson, 1984). So in order to improve the students’ reading speed and reading comprehension, language teachers should try to activate the Ss’ old knowledge store and add more relevant background knowledge before they get the students to read. According to the top-down model, general idea of the text will be got first, and then come the details.

II. Understanding of the teaching material

My understanding of the teaching material includes 3 parts: the status and the function, teaching objectives, the important and difficult points.

At the beginning, let’s focus on the first part. Journey down the Mekong is a piece of travel journal written by Wang Kun. It’s mainly about Wang Kun and his sister’s dream of taking a great bike trip down the Mekong River, their preparation for the trip and some more details of the Mekong River. General speaking, it is not difficult for the students to understand the text, but there are some new phrases and sentences that may be a little bit difficult. So before the students’ first reading, I will explain the new words and phrases briefly and after reading the whole passage, I will embody the usage of the news words and phrases, and get the student understand the difficult sentences. As it is a piece of journal, besides learning the new words and phrases, students can get the general idea of how to write a journal.

That’s all for the first part, now let’s move to the second part. According to the teaching material and the new curriculum of English, in order to fulfill the learning task of this lesson, I establish the following objectives:

a) Knowledge objectives

By the end of the lesson, Ss will have a better understanding of the meaning and structure of the text. Then Ss will grasp some useful words and expressions such as determined, make up one’s mind, give in, be fond of …, care about…, stubborn, etc.

b) Ability objectives

Actually students should be encouraged to do speed reading in the first period of reading lesson. But the students in my class are lack of independent reading ability. In this class, I will encourage and help them to read, think and find out information by themselves most time. Since the main objective of reading course is to improve the Ss’ reading ability, I’ll train their ability of identifying the general idea in the fast reading. And in intensive reading their ability of information-gathering and summarizing is developed. And the whole class is for Ss to develop their reading skills as scanning, skimming, information-gathering, summarizing and guessing the new words from the text.

c) Moral objectives

Though Journey down the Mekong is mainly about the trip down the river, it also talks about the scenery and life along the river. So before learning the text, we will have a short discussion about the importance of the river. I want the Ss to have the awareness of protecting the river and protecting our environment.

Well, so much for the teaching objectives, let's come to deal with the third part: the important points and the difficult points. According to the national curriculum of English and language learning theory, when teaching reading, we should encourage the Ss to do speed reading for the first time, that’s to say, we should encourage our Ss to read as fast as they can when they do the first reading. So much emphasis should be put on reading skills and reading comprehension as well. So the important points are that how to make Ss grasp the new words and phrases and how to improve their reading skills as scanning, skimming, information-gathering and summarizing. As to the difficult points, they are the same as the important ones.

III. Teaching methods and studying ways

That’s all for my understanding of the teaching material. Now let’s focus on the ways of teaching and learning.

Generally speaking, I adopt task-based language teaching and communicative approach in my class. As for learning, Ss will learn through independent reading, discussing and cooperating.

I will use computer and blackboard as my teaching aids.

Ⅳ. Teaching procedure

Here comes the most important part, the teaching procedure. It includes 5 steps: Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading, Step II: While-reading, Step III: Consolidation, Step IV: Post-reading, Step V: Homework.

Step I: Lead-in and pre-reading (7mins)

Now let’s come to the first step. There are three activities in this step and I will spend 7mins on them.

In activity one, I will ask Ss two questions "Do you know some great rivers in China?" and "Why they are great?” Here, as the Ss get familiar with the Chinese great rivers, I choose to ask them some great rivers in China. And the answer to the second question can lead in the next activity--brainstorming.

In activity two, I will ask the Ss to discuss in pairs and answer the question "How do people who live along a river use it?” My purpose of this activity is to remind the Ss the importance of the river, thus stimulate the Ss' awareness of protecting the rivers.

In the last activity, I will show the Ss a picture of the Mekong River and ask them to list the countries that it flows through. This activity leads in the while-reading.

Step II: While-reading (21mins)

While-reading is the main part and it will take 21mins. Here I adopt the top-down reading model. This step is divided into 2 parts: fast reading and careful reading. Before reading, I will ask the Ss to predict what will talk in the text according to the title. It can exert the Ss' imagination.

1) Fast reading

During fast reading, I will ask the Ss to reading the whole passage quickly and get the main idea of each paragraph. Usually, the main idea of each paragraph is the first sentence or the last sentence, but this text is not. So the main idea of each paragraph will be matched because the Ss are lack of the skill of summarizing the main idea by themselves.

2) Careful reading

After getting the general idea of each Para., I will deal with the details Para. by Para..

In paragraph one, I will ask the Ss to read quickly and do the exercises T or F. And if it is F, I will ask them to correct it. This exercise can help the Ss get the key information of the first paragraph in a short time and can deepen the Ss’ understanding of the first paragraph.

In paragraph two, I will ask Ss one question “Is it a difficult journey to cycle along the Mekong? Why?” This can help the Ss develop their ability of summarizing. If the Ss can’t answer the question briefly, I will encourage them to find the key sentences and try to join them together.

And in the last paragraph, I will ask Ss two questions “How does the water of Mekong River change?” and “What can you see when you travel along the Mekong River?” Both questions are required to answer in keys word. In order to lower the difficulty of the questions, I will show them the examples. After that, I will present some pictures to deepen the Ss’ impression on the new words. And these two questions can help the Ss gain a deeper understanding on the Mekong River.

Step III: Consolidation (6mins)

After dealing with the detailed information of each paragraph, I will ask the Ss to read the whole passage again and answer two questions to consolidate what they’ve learnt. It will take 6 minutes. The two questions are “Where is the source of the Mekong River and which sea does it enter?” and “How do Wang Kun and Wang Wei prepare for the trip?” It is easy for the Ss to find the answer to the first question in the text. As to the second question, it may be a little difficult, so I will list some tips for the Ss to find the answer more easily.

Step IV: Post-reading (10mins)

That’s all for the while-reading. Now let’s move to the fourth step. In this step, I will design two activities and I will spend 10 minutes on them.

The first activity is filling in the blanks. In this activity, Ss are required to find the different attitudes of Wang Kun and Wang Wei to the trip, and then the teacher will express her attitude to this trip. After demonstrating, Ss are encouraged to express their attitudes. It can help the Ss train their ability of information-gathering and expression.

The second activity is thinking. In this activity, I will ask the Ss to discuss in groups of four and try to use some words to describe the characteristics of Wang Kun and Wang Wei according to their attitudes. It is really difficult, but it can not only train their ability of analysis and comprehension, but also cultivate their spirit of cooperation

Step V: Homework (1min)

Finally it comes to the homework. Ss are required to review the learnt lesson and underline the useful words and phrases in the text. This one is for them to consolidate what they’ve learnt and make preparation for the next lesson—Learning about the Language..

Ⅴ. Blackboard design

On the top, there is the title of this lesson. On the left, it lists some important roles that the river plays. On the right, there are some useful words and expressions.

That’s all for my interpretation. Thank you for your att
