说课 必修1 unit1 reading

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen,I'm greatly honored to have the opportunity to share my teaching ideas with you. My topic today is “Anne's Best Friend”taken from Unit1, Book1. My presentation consists of 5 parts: The analysis of teaching material; learners; teaching objectives; learning methods, and teaching procedures.The reading passage is Anne's Best Friend, from Unit one, Book one. The topics of this unit are friends, friendship and interpersonal relationships. This passage is about the story of Anne, a Jewish girl, who treated her dairy as her best friend during WWⅡ. It consists of two parts; the introduction and the diary entry written by Anne in the form of letter. Anne confided her longings for a normal life and close contact with nature to the diary which accompanied her through the days. The diary gave a glimpse of her life in her family's shelter in Amsterdam from the German Nazis' killing. The passage is not very difficult though it includes some new words and phrases.Therefore, Teaching focuses are listed as following. First, predict with the help of the title, skim to get a general idea, and scan to get specific information. And second, some useful words and expressions such as go through, set down, a series of etc. Finally, using some adjectives to describe Anne's feelings. However, it may be difficult for Ss to writing the preface for the book Anne's Dairy by retelling and summarizing.The Ss of my class are from Grade one in a key senior high school in Zhejiang province. In terms of their cognitive abilities, they have a large vocabulary, and they have mastered some reading skills. In terms of their learning style, they are interested in group work, so they will be easily activated by discussion. In terms of their phycology, they yearn for being encouraged and praised in the class. In terms of their background knowledge, the Ss have learned something about the Second World War in their history class, so their previous knowledge about it can lessen their difficulty of comprehension.Based on the analysis of teaching material and learners, the teaching objectives are as following.First is the objective on the language skills. At the end of this class, my Ss are able to predict the content according to the title and the pictures; skim to get the general idea of the passage; scan to find out some specific information; retell Anne's environment and her longing for freedom; and summarize the passage by writing the preface for the book Anne's diary.And second is the objective on the language knowledge. The students are able to use the useful words and expressions properly as Netherlands, German, go through, set down, a series of, outdoors, thundering, entirely, power, curtains, dusty. They can use the proper adjectives to describe one's feelings.Third is the objective on the Learning strategies. The students are able to learn cooperatively and autonomously in activities before, during and after reading, communicate actively with their partners in working out the preface for Anne's diary which is to be published.As for the affect objective, my students are supposed to realize the importance offreedom and the value of friendship.And I also hope the students can know more about the Second World War, especially the persecution Jewish people suffered from the Nazi.Well, in order to achieve these teaching objectives, the Three-stage model, namely pre-reading, while-reading and post-reading; Task-based language teaching; and Communicative Language Teaching methods will be adopted.Last, let me talk about the teaching procedures. I divided my teaching procedures into three steps that are pre-reading, while-reading and post-reading.In the pre-reading, three activities are mentioned. The first one is talking. Students will watch a short video clip of an American movie “Cast Away”and listen to my introduction of the film, then discuss the reasons why friends are important. Audio-visual method is used in this activity to lead into the topic by watching a video clip which attracts Ss' attention. The classroom atmosphere can be activated by talking about the movie around the topic of friends and friendship. By using mind map Ss are encouraged to come up with more answers to the open question. The second activity is predicting. Students are supposed to read the title and have a quick look at the picture, try to guess what Anne's friend is and what happened between Anne and her friend. This activity can practice Ss' predicting skill. They will concentrate more on the text and become eager to know the answers and get mentally prepared for skimming and scanning. The last activity in the pre-reading part is Background information. I will show some pictures and introduce some background information about the WWⅡand the Nazi's policies towards Jews. Background information will activate Ss' background knowledge and make it easier for the Ss to comprehend the passage. In the process, Ss can be familiar with the words Netherlands, German, and go through which appear in the introduction part so that their reading obstacles are removed.The while-reading part consists of three activities, they are skimming, scanning, and close-reading. Multiple choices, matches, blank filling, note taking, and questioning answering are used in this part to make information be more effectively processed and retained. With these activities, the students will understand the passage better by using different reading skills.Lastly, the post-reading part. There is only activity, called discussing. Students are asked to discuss in groups about feelings towards Anne and her experience. And Imagine you have to go into hiding like Anne and her family. What would you miss most? Give your reasons. This is a kind of Reading-based speaking, which make Ss cultivate their cooperative learning and critical thinking. Ss realize the importance of freedom by telling their feelings so as to achieve the affective objectives.That's all. Thank you for you listening.。
