高中英语外研版必修5 Module 4 CarnivalThe Magic of the Mask 阅读课教学设计一、课标分析 Curriculum Standard Analysis《普通高中英语课程标准》指出：高中阶段的阅读课教学目的是“培养阅读策略，培养语感，特别强调培养学生在阅读过程中获取和处理信息的水平。
”它还明确要求高中学生要具备以下阅读技能———即：略读( skimming) 、找读( scanning) 、预测上下文、理解大意、分清文章中的事实和观点、猜测词义、推理判断、了解重要细节、理解文章结构、理解图表信息、理解指代关系、理解逻辑关系、理解作者意图、评价阅读内容。
我认为如果教师能有计划、分步骤地对学生实行阅读理解技能的训练和阅读水平的培养,那么阅读课的教学便能够收到事半功倍的效果。
二、教材分析 Teaching Material Analysis(一)内容分析本模块以Carnival为话题，介绍狂欢节的历史、发展、种类及人们的活动、饮食和习俗，并由此引导学生联想、讨论中国的节日。
经过对教材内容的分析和重组，本模块可我分五课时教授：第一课时 Introduction, Reading and Vocabulary (1)第二课时 Reading and Vocabulary (2), Cultural Corner第三课时Learning to learn, Vocabulary and Listening, Everyday English第四课时 Grammar, Function, Reading and Writing第五课时 Workbook, Module File本节课是此模块的第一课时，是一节阅读课，在本模块的教学过程中起着重要的作用。

必修5 Module4 Carnival READING AND VOCABULARYTeaching Objectives:1, Students can scan the passage quickly and catch the general idea of this passage at the very beginning. After reading this passage carefully, students can understand the deep meaning and some details, like inferring the meaning of some new words, predicating the development of the contents, and so on.2, After learning this passage, students can master the meaning and the usage of the key words, such as hide, confusion, extend, pretend, come to an end, dress up, and so on.3, After learning this passage, students can realize the differences between Chinese festivals and western festivals, can understand the history of carnival, and have a correct attitude to cultural differences.Important points of teaching:1,Lead the students to grasp the key words, phrases, and expressions, such as hide, confusion, extend, pretend, come to an end, dress up, and so on.2, Let the students understand the history of carnival, and arouse students’ interests in learning English.Difficult points of teaching:1, To catch and summarize the main idea of the text.2, To develop some important reading skills, like skimming, scanning, inferring, predicating, and so on.Teaching methods:TBLTCreating a situation of the passage’s content by using teaching aids to promote students to understand this passage.Dividing reading into three parts: pre-reading, while-reading, post-reading.Using Skinner’s reinforcement principles to arouse students’ interests. (Students can get the candy of carnival when they answer questions in the class)Teaching aids:The textbook, the blackboard, erasers, chalks, the computer, the electronic whiteboard, the projector.Teaching procedures:Step1.Warming up.

(about 5 minutes)Ask students to finish the exercise 1 on page32 through looking at the title and a picture on page 33. Aned then ask the students to skim through the “Match” on the screen ( The “Match” is below.), and match the main ideas with each paragraph through reading the text quickly. At the same time, ask students to check their own answers of exercise 1. When the students have finished these activities, the teacher lead students to check answers together.MatchStep4. Careful reading. (about 10-15 minutes)The teacher show the questions on the screen and ask the students to skim through the questions and the exercise 2 on page32(The questions are below.), and then ask students to read the text silently.when they finish these activities, students race to be the first to answer the answers of exercise 2 and answer the questions on the screen for the candys that the teacher prepared. The students should try their best to explain their answer and the teacher should help them to perfect their answer.1.What do you think of when you think of carnival?( We think of crowds , costumes , masks , and confusion .)2. Where and why does the word “carnival” come from ? Where does Carnival originate from? What did people see Carnival as ?(" Carnival ” comes from two Latin words , meaning “ no more meat ”. In Europe, where it began, carnival was followed by forty days without meat, as people prepared for the Christian festival of Easter. People saw Carnival as a last chance to have fun at the end of the winter season. Having fun meant eating, drinking, and dressing up.)3. How was the Carnival in Venice? ( It was the most famous carnival in Europe . The first carnival in Venice lasted for just one day. As time passed, the carnival period was extended, so that it began just after Christmas. For weeks on end people walked round the streets wearing masks, doing what they could without being recognized.)4. Why were masks banned when Venice became part of the Austrian empire, at the end of the eighteenth century? ( Because the government realized that wearing masks had become a problem . Their use was limited by laws. First men were not allowed to wear masks at night, and they were not allowed to dress up as women in the fourteenth century. In later times more laws were passed. People who wore masks could not carry firearms; and no one could enter a church wearing a mask. If they broke the laws, they were put into prison for up to two years. Finally, masks were banned and carnival became just a memory.)5. When and why was the tradition wearing masks revived? And by whom? ( In the late 1970s the tradition was revived. The idea to start the carnival again came from students. They began making masks and organizing parties, and threw bits of brightly colored paper at tourists. The town council realized that carnival was good for business, and the festival was developed for tourists.)Step5. Post-reading (about 16 minutes)Ask the students to skim through exercise 3 on page32 and exercise 4 on page 33, and read the passage again in order to complete these two activities. And then check the answers together. The teacher should explain how to infer the meaning of the words in the text while checking the answers.And next ask the students to try to retell the text with the help of the words below.Origin Europe, no meat, last chance to have fun, eat, drink, dress upVenice, famous, mask, one day, extend, walk around, Carnival development pretend, adventure, crime, laws, put intoprison, ban, revive, be good forToday celebrate, book, be crowded with, the spirit, wander, losemagicAnd then the teacher lead students to sum up and review the main points.Ask students to complete the passage on the screen with proper phrases to summarize the text.“Carnival”, which comes from Latin words, means “no more meat”. Now you think of crowds, costumes, and confusion when thinking of it. It began in Europe and people saw it as the last chance to have fun at the end of the winter season. Having fun meant eating, drinking, and dressing up. The most famous carnival in Europe was in Venice. For weeks on end people walk around the streets wearing masks, doing what they wanted without being recognized.Many crimes went unpunished. So the use of masks was limited by laws, the first of which dated back to the 14th century. At the end of 18th century, masks were completely banned. But in the 1970s, the tradition was revived by students. The town council realized the carnival was good for business, and the carnival was developed for tourists. The spirit of Venice carnival is the mystery of the mask. Nobody takes the masks of. If they come off, the magic is lost.Finally, the teacher stressed that we should have a right attitude to culturaldifferences. (Display the following content on the screen)Right attitude towards different festivals:We can see cultures and national spirits contained in the festivals. So we should not only cherish and protect our traditional festivals, but also pay great respect to foreign festivals.Step6.Homework (1minutes)List a festival you like in China, and writing an article about 100 words to introduce the origin, development, and today when and how we celebrate it.The blackboard design:Origin Europe, no meat, last chance to have fun, eat, drink, dress upVenice, famous, mask, one day, extend, walk around, Carnival development pretend, adventure, crime, laws, put intoprison, ban, revive, be good forToday celebrate, book, be crowded with, the spirit, wander, losemagicTeaching reflection:Reading is a very difficult and important part in the English teaching. As a teacher, we should be a good leader to stimulate students to make progress, and after class, the teacher should expose students to many English books to increase their input. Only if their input increase, can they output their knowledge and skills.。
