Teaching plan Welcome to the unitl Teaching aims: encourage students to look for relevant information themselves and learn how to reorganize what they think important provide students with sufficient chances to practice their spoken English broaden students knowledge related to the topics and arouse their interest l Teaching procedures: Preparations for warming-up Warming-up How do you usually spend your free time?Do you like watching TV programs? What kinds of programs do you like to watch most? Are you interested in the program called “Discovery” and why ? Are you curious about mysteries? Have you ever thought of exploring some of the mysteries? ( 這步驟的設(shè)計(jì)旨在激活學(xué)生的思維，設(shè)計(jì)的問題不妨從學(xué)生最熟知的話題、最有內(nèi)容可談的問題入手。建議：教師在設(shè)計(jì)此類問題時(shí)，可拓展部分知識和有意識地穿插新詞匯，以滿足一批優(yōu)秀學(xué)生的需求。如教師在完成上面的問題設(shè)計(jì)時(shí)，可以補(bǔ)充一些電視欄目的表達(dá)法。詞匯如 entertainment, recreation, thrilling, amusement, global, economy, finances, comment, analyze, current 等均可以作為詞匯的拓展，讓學(xué)生有個(gè)感性的認(rèn)識。又如在指導(dǎo)學(xué)生回答最后一個(gè)問題時(shí)，教師可以圍繞“如何才能真正做到探究并且勘探秘密”這一話題，讓學(xué)生們各抒己見。 courage, courageous, confident, leaned 等可以作為詞匯的拓展。) Focusing on the pictures( UFO ) Have you ever heard seen UFOs yourself? Have you ever read some reports about UFOs in China? Are you interested in UFOs? What does UFO stand for? Are they really from other planets? If you think UFOs really exist, for what reason do you think UFOs visit our planet?( Yeti ) Where are the Himalayas? Whats the weather like there? Why do some people make great efforts to climb the Himalayas? Some climbers and scientists reported they saw a strange creature in the Himalayas, which they call yeti. Do you believe it? Do you think some climbers disappearances have a connection with Yeti?( the Loch Ness Monster ) From the picture what does it look like? A dinosaur? Where is Scotland, to the north or to the south of it? What might be some mysterious stories about the Loch Ness Monster?( Stonehenge ) From the picture we can see all the stones are standing upright. Are you a bit curious about the phenomenon? Who could get all these huge stones to stand upright? What relevant information have you found about it?( the pyramids in Egypt ) Where are the pyramids, on the west bank or on the east bank of the famous River Nile? Do you think the Great Pyramid is a wonder in human history? How was the Great Pyramid built? Have you ever thought of paying a visit to Egypt and exploring some of the mysteries there? ( of all the pictures ) What are the common characteristics the five pictures share? (每個(gè)單元的“Welcome to the unit”這個(gè)版塊，學(xué)生們都能接觸到符合他們年齡和認(rèn)知特點(diǎn)的話題。建議：教師在處理這個(gè)版塊時(shí)，最好能課前布置學(xué)生搜索和話題有關(guān) 的資料，鼓勵他們不只是簡單的摘錄相關(guān)信息，要學(xué)會自己重組信息。在此過程中，教師起先的引導(dǎo)示范尤為關(guān)鍵，提醒學(xué)生若他們所收集的資料中含有大量的詞匯，應(yīng)學(xué)會摒棄，而絕不能照搬照抄或不斷的借助于電子詞典來勉強(qiáng)讀完。教師在備課時(shí)，也應(yīng)準(zhǔn)備一些有趣的、簡單易懂的相關(guān)信息，不僅可以增加學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)的興趣，提高他們的學(xué)習(xí)積極性和課堂參與性，而且大量的課堂輸入使學(xué)生在潛移默化中增加了知識面。教師可以逐個(gè)處理每幅圖片，或找出圖片的共同特征，設(shè)計(jì)相關(guān)問題激發(fā)學(xué)生的參與熱情。在此過程中，學(xué)生的小組討論可以穿插進(jìn)行。在整個(gè)的教學(xué)過程中，教師和學(xué)生的互動交流必須一直貫穿始終。) Sharing information 1 Pair students up or have them form their own pairs. Let different pairs focus on different questions. If possible, the teacher can adapt some questions into easier ones. One example has been shown on page 4 of the Teachers Book. 2 Encourage students to express their opinions with each other. Any answer is acceptable. 3 Ask different pairs to summarize their answers and then report them to the class. ( 每個(gè)單元的“Welcome to the unit” 結(jié)束前, 學(xué)生都要求回答和討論與本單元話題相關(guān)的三至四個(gè)問題。這些問題是針對于學(xué)生充分討論后的鞏固、提高和自我檢測的一個(gè)小練習(xí)。)后記：每個(gè)單元Welcome to the unit 的話題均是和Reading 密切相關(guān)的，整個(gè)板塊可以作為是Reading的“熱身活動”，其目的是為了激活學(xué)生的已有知識、讓學(xué)生在條件允許和成熟的條件時(shí)，學(xué)會自主收集信息、處理信息，培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的英語口語表達(dá)能力。完成這些活動所需的時(shí)間應(yīng)控制在半小時(shí)之內(nèi)。 此板塊所設(shè)計(jì)的活動均作為Reading的第一步驟，即Warming up練習(xí)。 Teaching PlanReadingl Teaching aims: Have students fully comprehend the article and enhance their reading abilities.
