人教版必修4英语Unit1 Reading 教学设计

Unit1 Reading 优教教学设计（二）

教学过程

→Step 1 Warming up and lead-in

(设计意图：通过竞赛、观看图片及小组讨论等形式激发学生学习兴趣，训练学生说的能力，同时引出中心人物Jane Goodall的相关信息，为阅读作好铺塾。）

Have a competition. Find out the quality that a great woman needs in groups.

Get students to look at the pictures on the screen and answer the questions.

Do you know these women? Who are they?

Are they great or are they important? Why?

Show more pictures of Jane Goodall with chimps in Africa.

→Step 2 Reading for information

(设计意图：学生通过略读初步掌握文章整体后，再进行寻读，捕捉具体信息细节，加深对文章的理解。寻读是快速阅读的另外一种方式，它要求教师设计好需要查找的信息和具体的事实。利用小组互问互答的方式培养学生获取信息、发现问题、分析问题、解决问题、用英语交流和与人合作的能力。）Task 1 General idea (3 mins)

Prediction is an important skill in grasping the idea of a text. Consequently, let the students predict the general idea before they read this task.

a. Read the title and enjoy the two pictures of Ms Goodall on Page 2 to predict the general meaning of the text.

b. Then skim Para. 1-Para. 3 as fast as possible and summarize the general idea.

Suggested answer :.The passage is mainly about how Jane Goodall worked with chimps in their environment and helped people understand and respect the life of these animals.

Task 2 Main idea of each paragraph (6 mins)

Cooperative learning can raise the students’ interest and create an atmosphere of achievement. Based on this theory, I divide the whole class into 4 groups to skim the whole text and get the main idea of each paragraph.

Suggested answers ：

Para. 1 How the group followed Jane’s way of studying chimps in the wild.

Para. 2 What Jane discovered about chimps.

Para. 3 How Jane tried to protect the lives of chimps in their natural habitat.

Para. 4 Jane Goodall’s achievements.

→Step 3 Consolidation

(设计意图：复述课文是训练学生运用信息的一个重要环节，这样做能帮助学生深入理解课文，掌握课文的要点，同时为提高学生英语书写的能力打下基础。）
