八年级英语下册unit 3 What were you doing
八年级英语下册unit 3 What were you doing when the UFO arrived?单元话题作文设计 徐闻县第一中学 王芳芳 一、本单元话题分析 本单元的话题是“Interesting events”，通过单元学习，要求学生掌握如何用过去时态谈论过去发生的事情，并能运用过去时态讲述一个故事。语法结构要求掌握由when 和 while引导的时间状语从句、过去进行时以及一般过去时。在了解目标语言的基础上，要求学生能读懂描述过去经历的文章，并进行模仿写作训练，描述一段不寻常的经历。 Section A 1a通过让学生把几个不同的人及其在UFO出现的相应位置进行配对，初步呈现本单元的目标语言，即talk about past events。1c是一个会话活动，让学生练习when 和while引导的时间状语从句和过去进行时的表达法。3b是对学生目标语言运用能力的检验，要求学生能看图口头复述故事。4是一个小组活动，让学生结合自己的生活实际，以采访的形式练习过去进行时的用法。 Section B 2c要求学生仿照例句谈论2a中列出的行为，练习while引导的时间状语从句的用法。4a提供了几幅图画，要求学生能根据图画内容写一段故事，练习用过去时写作。4b是一个角色扮演活动，要求学生根据提示的情境用所学过去时进行会话练习。 Reading Section3 3b是一个写作练习，要求学生模仿阅读文章，以自己生活中的一个记忆犹新的事件为中心，描述当自己听到这件事情时正在做什么。 二、写作设计（教学指导） 1、审题 1）确定写作的话题（Interesting events） 2）明确体栽：记叙文、书信或邮件 3）确定写作人称 4）确定时态主要运用：when 和 while引导的时间状语从句、过去进行时以及一般过去时。 5）题型设计：命题作文，提示性作文、图表作文 2、设计与布置写作任务 教学具体流程 整理思路——组织素材——规划文章结构——列出提纲——遣词造句——组织语言——起草文章——集体/同伴批改修订——形成二稿——展示批改。 1）整理思路——组织素材 Interesting events的话题是回忆我们过去生活中有趣的话题，作为学生都有自己的兴趣爱好，回忆什么？当时你在做什么？ 指导建议：本单元话题是谈论过去发生的事情，运用when 和 while引导的时间状语从句、过去进行时以及一般过去时。 2）规划文章结构——列出提纲 由于已经基本确定要写的内容，文章开头用一句话说明自己过去某一时候，你在什么地方；主体部分重点阐述 过去某一时候，你在做什么。 3）组织语言——起草文章 罗列出学过的兴趣爱好的短语，学生动笔写作，老师走动观察学生写作情况，解决学生写作时出现的问题。 4）集体批改——同伴批改修订——形成二稿——展示 学生互评后，老师抽样与全班同学一起点评，指导学生如何批改，学生从中也学会了怎样写好作文（如何找到作文的错误的地方或不足点，同时也要找到该作品的亮点）。 3、写作拓展 周末, 同学都喜欢到公园游玩，根据下列要点，描述你班同学上周周末公园游玩时的情景。 上周周末, 全班同学到公园游玩。天气宜人，公园到处是绿树和鲜花。 上午，有的同学唱歌、跳舞，有的打排球或羽毛球（badminton）。 吃完午饭，划船、登山，虽然很疲劳，但是很高兴，我们玩得非常痛快。 天色晚了，乘车返回学校。
4、教学小结 (1)、写作课不是教语言知识点，而是教学生如何运用目标语言来谋篇布局的写作技能，同时也适时地贯穿一些做人的道理。 (2)、用多种批改方式，提高学生对语言的运用能力。互相批改是个省时省力的方法，但前提是老师先教学生基本的批改方法。还有，老师不能把所有的工作由学生自己负责，在学生批改后，要进一步检查。 三、教学过程（Teaching Procedures） Step 1: Lead-in and presentation 1.

八年级下英语三单元笔记(要点+练习)
八下--- Unit 3 Section A1.So what were you doing when the UFOarrived? 因此不明飞行物到来时你正在做什么？①本句是when引导的时间状语从句。
主句是what were you doing, 是过去进行时特殊问句。
②arrive不及物动词，“到达”，其后接大地点用in，小地点at。
不强调地点时，只用arrive.When will you arrive ?get to = arrive at/in = reach 到达get toarrive in +地点名词reach（如：Beijing）getarrive + 地点副词reach(home/here/there)2.W ell, I was standing in front of the library.喔，我正站在图书馆前面。
1). 辨析in front of / in the front ofin front of 指范围外部的前面，in the front of 指范围内部的前面。
二者只表示位置关系。
2). Before也有“在…前面”之意，既可接时间，也可接地点。
The teacher sat before the students.3.Cooking dinner. 做晚餐cook动词，“煮，烹调”，可，用做名词，“炊事员，厨师”。
I can cook Chinese, French and Japanese food. Peter is a cook in a hotel.4.While the Alien was buying a souvenir, thegirl called the police. 当外星人在买纪念品时，女孩打电话报了警。
1）while 和when 用法（见书P17）2）as随着，一边…一边。
强调动作同时发生。
They talked as they walked. 他们边走边谈。
