Unit Four How do you go to school?
一、Analysis of the Teaching Material：
本單元是新目標英語(yǔ)《Go for it》八年級第一學(xué)期內容。本單元討論的話(huà)題是交通運輸方面的，是非常具有實(shí)用性的內容。學(xué)好本課，學(xué)生不但能夠加深對一般現在時(shí)態(tài)的理解和運用，也可以用英語(yǔ)來(lái)和別人討論到達某地的最佳方式。
二、Analysis of the Students：
對于出二第一學(xué)期的學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)，他們在經(jīng)過(guò)初一一年的英語(yǔ)學(xué)習后，已具有了相當的英語(yǔ)基礎，同時(shí)也具備一些運用的語(yǔ)言知識的能力。在這樣的基礎上，學(xué)生對于討論跟他們生活息息相關(guān)的行的相關(guān)內容一概很容易產(chǎn)生興趣，老師應在這一教學(xué)過(guò)程中教育學(xué)生要自覺(jué)遵守交通法規。
三、Design the principle：
新目標英語(yǔ)強調的是任務(wù)型教學(xué)，強調學(xué)生要成為教學(xué)活動(dòng)的主體，而老師只是從中起到協(xié)調引導作用，因此在我的教學(xué)設計里，比較重視學(xué)生活動(dòng)。充分調動(dòng)起學(xué)生的積極性，讓他們成為學(xué)習的主動(dòng)者。本節課是本單元的第一課時(shí)，主要讓學(xué)生掌握交通工具和基本句型“How do you……？”

（強化交際能力，檢查復習學(xué)過(guò)知識)
Step Two: New words
Show some pictures of the new words on the screen. Ask students to try to read these words.
bike, train, subway, car, ship, boat, bus, airplane
Maybe there is only one new word for students---subway, so the teacher only correct the pronunciation of these words.
There is a words game.( Ask students to look through the new words quickly, then check how many they can remember. Give students some pictures about the new words and some word cards. The teacher show the new words or the pictures of the new words on the screen. If the teacher show the word “train” to the students, the student who got the picture of the train should stand up quickly and say “I’m here!” And so on.)
(通過(guò)多媒體屏幕向學(xué)生展示所學(xué)單詞,圖文并茂，非常直觀(guān)地向學(xué)生展示了新單詞.簡(jiǎn)單的單詞游戲既調動(dòng)了學(xué)生的學(xué)習積極性又強化了單詞記憶。)
Step Three: Listening
Ask students to look at the picture in their books. Ask them some questions about the picture.
Show the questions on the screen.
What can you see in the picture?
How many people are there in the picture?
What are they doing?
After this, play the recording for two times, ask students to finish Activity 1b and write down the phrases of the transports.
takes the train, takes the subway, takes the bus
For the third time, ask students to repeat the conversation and check the answers together.
The teacher give the correct answers on the screen.
(通過(guò)聽(tīng)力讓學(xué)生對于本課的基本句型有了一個(gè)初步印象，并且讓他們自己從聽(tīng)力中領(lǐng)悟怎樣表達使用某種交通工具。)
Step Four: Structures
Phrases
take the bus, take the train, take the subway, ride a bike, take a car, take the airplane, take the boat, on foot
Show the pictures to students and read these phrases , ask students to repeat.
Then show the pictures to them and ask them to say each phrase one by one.
（2）Structures:
The teacher show the pictures to students and ask students to answer the question “How do you go to school?” one by one.
Then do another exercise. The first student say “I go to school by ……or I take……to school.”，then the second student say “He/She goes to school by……or He/She takes……to school.”
（讓學(xué)生通過(guò)圖片來(lái)記短語(yǔ)，生動(dòng)形象。句子接龍能引起學(xué)生的注意，讓他們既要考慮自己怎么說(shuō)還要注意聽(tīng)別人怎么說(shuō)，而且在這一過(guò)程中充分訓練了單三人稱(chēng)的句子）
Step Five: Pairwork
Ask two students to read the dialogue in the speech bubbles to the class.
Then ask students to work in pairs. Ask and answer how students get to school in the picture.
As they work, move around the room, offering language or pronunciation support as needed.
Finally ask some pairs of students to present their conversations to the class.
（通過(guò)對話(huà)讓學(xué)生更好的掌握所學(xué)的句型。）
Step Six: Exercises
1. ( ) do you get to school?

A. Why B. How C. When D. Where
2. How ( ) Dave ( ) to school yester day?

4. How ( ) Tom and Marry ( ) home?

（通過(guò)練習鞏固所學(xué)內容，特別是練習3強調了步行用“on foot”練習4強調了地點(diǎn)副詞“home”前不用介詞“to”）
Homework:
Write down your own conversations in pairwork.

十、教學(xué)反思：
本節課上完后有如下感覺(jué)：
a) 多媒體教學(xué)使課堂生動(dòng)活潑，增加了教學(xué)容量，使老師更好的利用課堂45分鐘。
b) 基本按照新課標的要求讓學(xué)生成為課堂的主體，讓他們多說(shuō)多練，教學(xué)效果較好。
c) 隨堂的幾道習題幫助學(xué)生更好的掌握了所學(xué)。
d) 由于學(xué)生較多，所以設計的活動(dòng)有些進(jìn)行得很倉促.
e) 對于基礎較差的學(xué)生來(lái)說(shuō)，課堂容量較大，很難進(jìn)行完。
