一、教学内容分析
本单元是Go for it八年级上册中第三单元“What are you doing for vacation?”。本单元的核心话题是谈论未来计划,课文始终围绕这一主题展开,我们要学习如何谈论假期的计划(Vacation plans),及对将来的安排(Future plans)。让学生学会用what询问将要干什么并回答;用when, who, where, how long, how等词围绕未来计划进行提问和回答。语言知识和语言技能部分主要是围绕核心话题时设计安排了许多听,说,读,写的任务活动,来不断丰富巩固这一话题的词汇及习惯短语。我将灵活运用这些活动,并将其中的一些活动进行变化或整合。
二、教学目标分析
根据《英语课程标准》关于总目标的具体描述,结合第三单元的教材内容,我按语言知识、语言技能、学习策略、情感态度、文化意识五个方面将本单元的教学目标细化:
1、语言知识
1.语音:在日常生活中做到语音、语调基本正确、自然、流畅。
2.词汇:(见教参)
3.语法:①现在进行时表示将来用法及去做某事的go doing
②用what, when, where, who 等对句中的事件、时间、地点、人物等提问。
4.功能: 谈论未来的计划安排
5.话题: 熟悉有关度假的内容。
2、语言技能
1.能听懂本单元学习活动中的问题,做出较得体的回答。
2.掌握有关假期生活的动词且能熟练运用;掌握wh-特殊疑问句的运用。
3.能运用所学词汇询问和表达未来打算,学会使用现在进行时态表示未来计划;
4.能围绕未来计划这一话题作较具体的描述。
5.能读懂介绍未来打算的文章和日程安排。
6.学会书写即将发生的假期安排或计划和科学安排自己的假期活动.
3、情感态度
1.运用所学语言,积极投身到实践活动中去,实践自己的价值。
2.能在描述自己的计划和打算时,激起学生更加热爱祖国的美好河山和地球,从而为人类的美好明天贡献自己的一份力量。
4、学习策略
1.能根据需要进行有目的预习,使其对教师的教学内容起补充作用。
2.抓住用英语交际的机会,在交际中把注意力集中在意思的表达上,必要时借助手势和表情。
3.主动参与学习活动,善于和他人合作。
4.能利用网络上的学习资源查找信息,用所学内容进行真实的交际,积极参与课外英语学习。
5、文化意识
1.初步了解英语国家的地理位置、历史及假日的主要庆祝方式。
2.了解和熟悉当地地理,培养学生对本土文化的热爱,实现跨学科交流的目的。
三、教学重难点
重点是‘talk about future plans’及本单元出现的词汇、句型和语法。主要句型如下:
What are you doing for vacation? I am spending time with my friends
When are you going? I’m going next week.
How long are you staying? We are staying for two weeks.
难点①如何培养学生根据阅读材料提高写作能力。
②本单元出现的be+doing均表示“打算做某事”,这与以前所学的现在进行时表“正在做某事”要学生注意通过上下文从意思上区分。
四、学情分析及教学策略
在上册书中已学过用一般过去时谈论过去度假的表达,具有了学习本单元知识的认知前提,能自然地与本单元话题进行衔接。因此,在本单元的对话中,教师可鼓励学生将过去度假的经历结合到本单元的对话中,充实对话内容,同时复习一般过去时。谈论未来计划是人们日常生活中遇到的话题,故学生喜于用英语表达此类知识。教师可在课前请学生在各种资料上查阅一些国内外风景名胜的情况介绍,包括其名称、所在国、气候、风景特点等, 以便在对话时有更大的自由表达空间,同时与其他同学互相学习、互通信息。同时教师也查阅一些资料提供给学生。教师应从学生的生活经验和兴趣出发,在课堂教学中应设计任务型教学活动,体现以学生为主体的教学活动,让学生在完成各项任务的过程中自主学习语言,提高综合运用语言能力。
五、主题语表

Sunny, nice Sports camp ,at home, on the beach, in the mountain

六、课时结构
根据本单元教材的内容、学生学习英语的特点和规律,我把本单元内容整合为4课时:
Period1 (Section A 1a/1b/1c /2c SectionB1a/1b/4)
Period2 (Section A 2a/2b/SectionB2a/2b/ 2c /Selfcheck2)
Period3 (Section B2c / Section A 3a/3b/ 课外阅读(go camping)/4)
Period4 (Just for fun/SectionB3a/3b/3c/ Selfcheck1/自编的Selfcheck)
每课时都有一个主题:Period1---Speaking,Period2---Listening, Period3---Reading, Period4--- Writing。但每课时都始终坚持任务目标→导说领先→活动或讨论→反馈或笔头落实→环环相扣,逐步铺垫。其根本目的在于突出重点,使课堂节奏紧凑,连贯,达到知识到能力的正向迁移。
七、教学过程设计
Period1
I.教学目标:
1.知识目标:
1).单词: babysit, camp, bike, ride, sightseeing, fish, rent.
2).句型: What are you doing for vacation? I’m visiting my grandmother.
What’s she doing for vacation? She’s going camping.
What are they doing for vacation? They’re relaxing at home.
2.能力目标:1)学完本课,学会学习谈论将来的计划。
2)学习用现在进行时表示将来时。
3)能积极思维,运用所学单词,短语及句型,结合实际生活进行灵活运用。
3.情感态度目标:让学生熟悉和理解不同的生活和度假方式。
II.教学重点: 掌握本课新单词和句型和怎样谈论将来的计划,及提高学生说的能力。
III.教学难点:掌握怎样谈论将来的计划的方法和提高学生说的能力。
IV. 教学设计:
Step1Brain storm
Collect the names of activities which said by students.
Step2 Revision (pair work)
Revise something about vacation by asking:
Where did you go on vacation?
How was your vacation?
Step3 Lead-in
①通过看a video 进行match 来复习现在进行时。
②Show students a big calendar which prepared before class, and say:
Today is Thursday. Two days later is Saturday. I am staying at home on Saturday. And I am not going out.
And ask students:
What about you? What are you doing on Saturday?
学生做出各种不同的回答,教师将句子I am staying at home on Saturday。及学生回答中的动词短语写在黑板上,通过朗读回顾知识。这里应提醒学生注意be doing sth. 用现在进行时代表将要发生的动作,表示对未来的计划和安排,译为“我将要…”,“我打算…”,而不是正在做某事。
eg . What’s she doing for vacation? 她假期要做什么?
She’s babysitting her sister. 她要看她妹妹。
这是我们进入初中以来第一次接触到将来时。这种用现在进行时表示将来动作的用法,实际上在英语中是很常见的。
Step4 Presentation (SectionB1a /SectionA1a)

教学点评及反思:
一.环节设计思路:
本课以听说为主线,以三个环环相扣,循序渐进的任务展开知识学习。
首先就以课本中的一段对话听力引入,将学生自然带入语言环境,并初步感受到本课的主要话题是谈论假期活动。由此引出本课第一个任务,学生自己谈论各自的假期活动安排,并为第二个任务做了铺垫。学会陈述自己的情况之后,还要交流和了解他人的假期活动,因此,第二个任务接踵而来,学生开始自由调查班级里其他同学的假期活动安排是怎样的。这个任务承上启下,它引出本课的中心任务:即为Susan安排楠溪江之旅的日程。
二.课后反思:
本课在设计上听说结合,相得益彰。首先给学生创造了一个语言环境,让学生自然融入,然后,缓缓导入阶梯状任务链,循序渐进,难度不断加大,但坡度平缓,铺垫充分且扎实,因此学生在完成最后的中心任务时亦不觉吃力,整堂课学生活动充分,教师的引导点到为止,给学生较大的空间发挥和创造。

Let’s go camping
What do we do when we go camp? First, we work out a plan. We take food, clothing, a knife, and things for cooking and eating. We take things to keep us away from insects and the sun.
Then we put everything into the car and we drive to the woods. We look for a place for campers (露营者) and we look for a good place for our tent(帐篷). The place should have a lot of moving air. This will keep some insects (虫子) away. High land with water on both sides of it is good. Then we put up our tent. We put everything into the tent, and we are ready for fun. We can swim in the lake, walk in the woods, climb a mountain, row a boat, or go fishing.
In the evening we come back to the tent, we build a big fire because it can keep the insects away. We sit around the fire and talk. We may tell interesting stories or we may sing songs.
At night we lie down on the grass. We can look up at the stars. It is a busy day, so we try to go to sleep early.
Everything is dark. Everything is quiet. We hope we won’t hear music from the radio in the next tent. We hope it won’t rain.

教学点评及反思:
一.环节设计思路:
本课从课本入手,用课本内容引出课外活动,层次清晰。
首先面向全体学生进行简单的复习,目的在于巩固几个基本句型。然后把课本中阅读的短文用听力的方式引入,别出心裁。其主要目的在于营造较轻松的语言环境,缓解部分学生对于读写的畏惧心理。接下来,从听说引入读写,给学生铺垫知识的过程。读写并不脱离听说,因为语言是交流的工具,因此,在读的过程中适当穿插说,既练习口头表达,又巩固了读的成效。最后,本课的中心任务自然引出,要学生为短文的主人公安排到北京旅游的日程。整个课堂设计由浅入深,循序渐进,难度过渡非常自然。
二.课后反思:
学生是活动的主体,课堂上大部分的时间交给学生,教师的引导是关键。如何一层层的导入,由易至难的阶梯状任务何时引入,如何引入都是关键所在。同时要注意的是,学生活动之前的范例一定要明确清晰,要每个孩子都知道做什么和怎么做,活动才会顺利的开展,学生才能在活动中有所得。
在课堂设计上体现了任务型教学的主导思想,以任务贯穿教师教学和学生活动的各个环节。学生活动的目的明确,每个步骤教师都给出了活动所需的语言知识内容,学生亦能准确的使用目标语言,在活动中学习掌握知识。
八、 备课体会
1、本单元教学设计基于教学参考和课本资料。为了提高学生的综合语言运用能力,从听、说、读、写这四个方面对教材内容进行合并,掉换顺序,增或减,甚至有部分内容作为作业去完成。但每课时除了突出主要语言技能外,又体现了其他语言技能。
2、教学任务设计主要围绕以下几个主题:①任务目标。教学步骤中每一步都将成为下一教学步骤的铺垫,在每一步骤中,教师设计具体任务,让学生参与到课堂互动中,并完成具体的任务。在写作课中,Discussion能充分使学生如释重负。②自主学习。本单元的主题任务,都要求学生在课余进行资料收集、整理并在课堂上报告,对于基础较弱的学校,教师可以事先收集资料让学生课前阅读。③着重思维培养,围绕话题 future plans 进行多方面的扩展,并且能较好地利用 reading 部分,引发学生积极思维、讨论。④课堂总结,当堂巩固。在授课过程中,在师生互动中呈现并教授新学词汇,并落实在课文和练习巩固中。对于长句、难句,教师进行控制性提问和分析。⑤尽量引导学生利用网络资源。
3、课堂容量较大,四课时可能难以完成,在实际上课中很可能需要调整课时。
