Unit 3 Festivals and customs Welcome to the unit & Reading (I) 内容分析： Welcome to the unit版块围绕单元话题，以三段视频介绍三个不同国家的节日，三个节日分别为泰国义蓬灯节、瑞典的仲夏节和墨西哥的亡灵节。教学活动通过引领学生了解其他国家的节日，激发学生进一步探究本单元话题的兴趣，为单元学习做好热身。 教学活动中，首先让学生通过小组合作，填写有关中国传统节日习俗的信息表；接下来播放介绍泰国义蓬灯节、瑞典的仲夏节和墨西哥的亡灵节的视频，要学生提取关键信息，并分享他们对这些节日的感想；最后让学生举出和泰国义蓬灯节、瑞典的仲夏节和墨西哥的亡灵节有相似点的中国传统节日的例子，通过对比，实现中外文化融通。 Reading部分的话题是环球旅行，语篇是两篇旅行日记。旅行是感知异域文化的一种方式，两篇旅行日记从旅行作家的视角介绍了印度的婚礼习俗和巴西里约狂欢节的盛大场面，这能够让学生对于这两个国家的风土人情有更深入的理解。通过让学生感受异域风情、了解异域文化，有效地提升他们的文化意识，提高跨文化交际能力，为学生国际视野的养成打下基础。 教学目标： By the end of this section, students will be able to: 1. list famous festivals around the world; 2. describe one of the traditional Chinese festivals; 3. develop proper attitudes towards different festivals; 4. know the wedding customs in India and the grand occasion of the Rio Carnival; 5. explore cultural values behind those customs; 6. develop a tolerant and respectful attitude towards different cultures and the ability of cross-cultural communication. 教学重难点： 1. build the connection of the information from the passage and the personal experiences of the students. 2. understand the festivals and customs of different nations and develop a tolerant and respectful attitude towards different cultures. 教学过程： Step 1 Lead-in 1.
