七（上）英語Unit8Whenisyourbirthday?的教學(xué)設(shè)計(jì)

一、教材分析

（-）本單元的基本要求

《英語課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)》指出：“英語課程的學(xué)習(xí)，既是學(xué)生通過英語學(xué)習(xí)和實(shí)

踐活動，逐步掌握英語知識和技能，提高語言實(shí)際運(yùn)用能力的過程；又是他們磨

礪意志、陶冶情操、拓展視野、豐富生活經(jīng)歷、開發(fā)思維能力、發(fā)展個(gè)性和提高

人文素養(yǎng)的過程。”因此，在教學(xué)中我們始終要堅(jiān)持以學(xué)生為主體，培養(yǎng)學(xué)生自

主學(xué)習(xí)、合作學(xué)習(xí)的能力，使英語作為學(xué)習(xí)的載體，培養(yǎng)全面發(fā)展的高素質(zhì)人才。

由于本單元的主題是“生日”，與生活聯(lián)系非常緊密，我們要充分開發(fā)課程資源,

結(jié)合實(shí)際，盡量讓學(xué)生參與到課堂中，發(fā)揮他們的積極性和主動性，力圖使學(xué)生

自己輸入的語言和信息成為主要教學(xué)內(nèi)容資源，并成為整個(gè)學(xué)習(xí)過程的中心，真

正做到“在用中學(xué)，在學(xué)中用，學(xué)以致用“。同時(shí)，我們還要針對本班學(xué)生特點(diǎn)，

對教材進(jìn)行整合、取舍并擴(kuò)充必要材料充實(shí)課堂教學(xué)內(nèi)容。

（二）本單元內(nèi)容的知識體系

1、教學(xué)內(nèi)容

本單元是Goforit七年級上冊第八單元“Whenisyourbirthday?”。本

單元的核心話題是談?wù)撊说某錾掌?主要學(xué)習(xí)序數(shù)詞的構(gòu)成以及運(yùn)用序數(shù)詞表

示日期的方法；學(xué)會運(yùn)用when引導(dǎo)的特殊疑問句詢問日期；學(xué)習(xí)名詞所有格

（,s所有格）的構(gòu)成和使用。SectionA是本單元的重點(diǎn)部分，也是核心

教學(xué)內(nèi)容，為口語練習(xí)課，主要學(xué)習(xí)日期的詢問與表達(dá)；通過談?wù)撟约骸⑼瑢W(xué)以

及父母家人的生日，理解生日更多的含義。它上承Unit7的數(shù)字教學(xué)，下接

SeCtiOnB與以后有關(guān)日期的英語教學(xué)。因此，本部分是前后知識的載體，在本

單元以及今后的英語學(xué)習(xí)中都占重要的地位。SeCtiOnB的主要內(nèi)容是復(fù)習(xí)、鞏

固“日期的詢問和應(yīng)答”；學(xué)會談?wù)撟约?、同學(xué)以及父母家人的生日；并學(xué)會自

己安排作息時(shí)間。這一部分主要學(xué)習(xí)如何安排課內(nèi)外的一些活動，非常貼近學(xué)生

的學(xué)習(xí)生活。通過互相詢問課內(nèi)外活動的安排日程，不僅可以增進(jìn)同學(xué)之間的了

解和友情，而且還能學(xué)會合理地安排自己的作息時(shí)間，養(yǎng)成有規(guī)律地生活、學(xué)習(xí)

的好習(xí)慣。SelfCheCk部分引導(dǎo)學(xué)生復(fù)習(xí)、鞏固“詢問和談?wù)撊掌凇钡哪繕?biāo)語

言并運(yùn)用所學(xué)知識安排活動。

2、教材的地位及作用

本單元旨在創(chuàng)造一個(gè)輕松、愉快的學(xué)習(xí)、交流環(huán)境，通過聽、說、讀、寫來

培養(yǎng)學(xué)生綜合運(yùn)用所學(xué)知識的能力。并讓學(xué)生能在“做中學(xué)”(Iearningby

doing),通過有限的課堂實(shí)踐活動，使學(xué)生能根據(jù)實(shí)際情景做出正確的反應(yīng)，能

準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)。

本單元是人教版新目標(biāo)英語七年級(上)第八單元，由SeCtionA,Section

B和SelfCheCk三大塊組成。主要圍繞"Whenisyourbirthday?,,這一主題

展開各種教學(xué)活動，主要學(xué)習(xí)日期的表達(dá)，這是本單元的重點(diǎn)部分，也是核心教

學(xué)。它上承Unit7的數(shù)字教學(xué)，包含了相關(guān)日期的英語教學(xué)，并為以后的日期

的運(yùn)用打下基礎(chǔ)。因此本單元是前后知識的載體，在本單元以及今后的英語學(xué)習(xí)

中都占重要的地位。

二、學(xué)情分析

本單元的主題是詢問和談?wù)撊掌?，圍繞這一主題進(jìn)行一系列的交際活動，使

學(xué)生掌握日期的表達(dá)法，正確使用when引導(dǎo)的特殊疑問句對日期進(jìn)行詢問。在

學(xué)習(xí)日期的表達(dá)法時(shí)要先學(xué)習(xí)序數(shù)詞的構(gòu)成，學(xué)生在以前的課程里已經(jīng)學(xué)習(xí)了基

數(shù)詞，對于兩種數(shù)詞之間的區(qū)別一定會令學(xué)生感到頭痛，教師要引導(dǎo)學(xué)生運(yùn)用對

比的方法，找出構(gòu)成規(guī)律，總結(jié)特殊變化，對比強(qiáng)化記憶。

在本單元的學(xué)習(xí)過程中，學(xué)生要學(xué)會談?wù)撟约?、同學(xué)以及父母等的生日。培

養(yǎng)學(xué)生關(guān)心家人、關(guān)心同學(xué)朋友的良好情感品質(zhì)，并理解生日更多的含義。本單

元交際的話題主要圍繞"Whenisyour/yourmother,s/yourfather,s/???

birthday?My/Her/Hisbirthdayis./It,s.”和詢問年齡”How

oldareyou?”展開的。一提到生日，學(xué)生就會聯(lián)想到生日party、蠟燭、蛋

糕、同學(xué)歡聚等浪漫而又輕松熱鬧的場面，是學(xué)生感興趣的話題,而SeCtiOnB

部分關(guān)于學(xué)校里的一些活動安排也是學(xué)生所津津樂道的。因此，創(chuàng)設(shè)情景，以興

趣刺激學(xué)生的學(xué)習(xí)主動性和交際的主動性,可以讓本單元的教學(xué)顯得輕松、有趣,

提高學(xué)生主動參與課堂活動的積極性。

我們教學(xué)的對象是七年級學(xué)生，他們學(xué)習(xí)英語既感到好奇又擔(dān)憂，希望能得

到他人的肯定。因此，在教學(xué)活動中我們要盡量讓他們參與到活動中來，有更多

的機(jī)會來說英語，減少他們的恐懼感，通過學(xué)生間的合作學(xué)習(xí)，降低他們的學(xué)習(xí)

難度，使他們體驗(yàn)到成功的喜悅。同時(shí)讓學(xué)生有機(jī)會在實(shí)際運(yùn)用和表達(dá)中實(shí)踐所

學(xué)的知識，從而提高他們綜合運(yùn)用語言的能力，使各層次的學(xué)生都有所收獲。

同時(shí)，初中學(xué)生的抽象思維能力較低，形象思維能力強(qiáng)，但注意力容易分散。

我們要選用各種有趣的圖片，學(xué)生喜歡的人物和視頻動畫等形式展示，并配以豐

富的色彩，從而增強(qiáng)學(xué)生的興趣和注意力。教育心理學(xué)的有關(guān)研究表明，如果學(xué)

生對于一件事物有極大的興趣,他們就會排除主觀和客觀的種種消極因素,盡量

全身心地投入到知識的學(xué)習(xí)中去。

三、教學(xué)目標(biāo)

《新課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)》中關(guān)于基礎(chǔ)教育階段英語課程的總體目標(biāo)是培養(yǎng)學(xué)生綜合語

言運(yùn)用能力，而這種語言運(yùn)用能力的形式是建立在語言知識、語言技能、情感態(tài)

度、學(xué)習(xí)策略和文化意識的整體發(fā)展基礎(chǔ)上的。通過本單元的學(xué)習(xí)，我們要讓學(xué)

生掌握所學(xué)目標(biāo)語言；學(xué)會日期（年、月、日）的表達(dá)法；在互動的交流中理

解生日更多的含義并學(xué)會談?wù)撟约?、同學(xué)以及父母家人的生日：學(xué)會自己安排作

息時(shí)間。根據(jù)本以上教學(xué)內(nèi)容和學(xué)生知識結(jié)構(gòu)及認(rèn)知特點(diǎn)，本單元的教學(xué)目標(biāo)確

定為：

（1）知識目標(biāo)：

①詞匯：掌握J(rèn)anUary-December的表達(dá)；序數(shù)詞ISt—31st.

②日常交際用語、：Whenisyourbirthday?Mybirthdayis….

③語法：日期表達(dá)法

（2）能力目標(biāo)：

在一系列的聽說讀寫活動中，訓(xùn)練學(xué)生的邏輯思維，快速反應(yīng)能力和實(shí)踐能

力，使學(xué)生能熟練應(yīng)用：Whenisyourbirthday?句型及其回答。

（3）情感目標(biāo)：

①對學(xué)生進(jìn)行珍愛生命，尊老愛幼，孝敬父母的傳統(tǒng)道德教育。

②進(jìn)一步提高學(xué)生對英語的學(xué)習(xí)熱情，增強(qiáng)學(xué)習(xí)興趣。

③培養(yǎng)學(xué)生積極與他人合作，參與活動的意識。

(4)學(xué)習(xí)策略目標(biāo)：

①學(xué)會如何合理的安排自己的作息時(shí)間，做時(shí)間的主人。

②通過本課的學(xué)習(xí)，能夠利用自己已掌握的知識完成自我學(xué)習(xí)及小組合作

學(xué)習(xí)。

③通過和同學(xué)合作、交流學(xué)會如何交際和關(guān)愛他人。

(5)跨學(xué)科學(xué)習(xí)：

①藝術(shù)：制作小掛歷，生日賀卡等

②數(shù)學(xué)：計(jì)算

③社會實(shí)踐：制作自己的日程安排

(6)文化意識：理解東西方過生日的不同習(xí)慣

四、重點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)

本單元是在前一單元學(xué)習(xí)了基數(shù)詞10-31的基礎(chǔ)上,馬上提升到讓學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)

日期(月份、序數(shù)詞lst-31st)的表達(dá)法。詞匯量大、跨度大、難度也較大。

如何使學(xué)生用這些難讀，難記、又單調(diào)的詞匯進(jìn)行交流與交際，將是本單元的一

大挑戰(zhàn)。止匕外，學(xué)生在前面幾單元的學(xué)習(xí)中雖然接觸過名詞所有格，但在意識上

讓他們懂得這一概念，并能熟練而準(zhǔn)確地運(yùn)用他們還是相當(dāng)有難度的。

五、教法運(yùn)用

1、任務(wù)型教學(xué)

(1)詢問父母親的生日；

(2)同學(xué)生日冊的制作；

(3)制作個(gè)人信息卡；

(4)近期個(gè)人活動安排日歷；

(5)制定學(xué)?！坝⒄Z周”活動安排表。

2、情景教學(xué)法

課堂教學(xué)以情景交際教學(xué)法為主，盡量給學(xué)生以足夠的聽、說、讀的機(jī)會，

聯(lián)系課文實(shí)際，創(chuàng)設(shè)情景，引入討論主題，在交際中學(xué)英語。情景的設(shè)計(jì)注意銜

接的自然性，主題的設(shè)計(jì)強(qiáng)調(diào)知識的漸進(jìn)性和討論的可行性，并注意情感體驗(yàn)和

概括、推理思維的培養(yǎng)。

3、交際教學(xué)法

語言最重要且首先是一種交際體系.語言教學(xué)的目的是目標(biāo)語的交際能力。

學(xué)生有規(guī)律地在小組或者倆倆活動中進(jìn)行信息差意義傳遞活動，學(xué)生經(jīng)常從事角

色或者課本劇表演，以便使自己的目標(biāo)語使用適宜于不同的社會語境。課堂材料

和課堂活動常常是真實(shí)可信的，以反映現(xiàn)實(shí)情景和生活需要。技能一開始就應(yīng)該

是綜合的;特定的活動可能涉及讀、說、聽,也許還有寫。老師的任務(wù)主要是促

進(jìn)交際,其次才是改正錯誤.老師應(yīng)該能流利地和恰當(dāng)?shù)厥褂媚繕?biāo)語。

六、教具準(zhǔn)備

多媒體輔助：用CAl課件輔助教學(xué)

七、學(xué)法指導(dǎo)

1、學(xué)習(xí)方法的指導(dǎo)

培養(yǎng)學(xué)生觀察力，想象力，記憶力以及思維能力。用生動的課件調(diào)動學(xué)生的

感官進(jìn)行聽說讀寫的訓(xùn)練。

2、學(xué)習(xí)積極性的調(diào)動

盡量在教學(xué)過程中創(chuàng)造一種開放的，和諧的，積極互動的語言氛圍，把課堂

變成有聲有色的舞臺，讓學(xué)生在樂中學(xué)。

3、學(xué)習(xí)能力的培養(yǎng)

通過相關(guān)的聽說讀寫，游戲，競賽等，培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的交際能力，發(fā)展他們的思

維能力。
