Unit 8 Literature Lesson 1 The Last Leaf 1、 Teaching objectives By the end of this class, students will be able to: 1. understanding of the plots, the ending and the title. 2. list the development of the story by completing the timeline. 3. analyze the main character’s characteristics and list some writing styles of the story. 2、 Teaching key and difficult points 1. analyze the main character’s characteristics 2. understand the reasons for the main character's behaviors and languages and list writing styles. 3、 Analysis of teaching material and students 1. Analysis of teaching material This lesson is a short story. The Last Leaf is a work by American writer O. Henry. It tells the story of an old painter who paints the last ivy leaf for a poor student dying of pneumonia. The old painter Behrman is a small figure who has struggled at the bottom of society all his life, suffering from hardship and poverty all his life, but he loves the art of painting and sacrifices his life to save the life of a young painter. 2. Analysis of target students This lesson is aimed at students who are second-year high school students who have a desire to express their ideas and present the results of their discussions to some extent. However, the learning level of students in the same text is uneven, so it brings certain difficulties to teaching. 4、 Teaching ideology This text is a short story, which can be started from the background, characters, plot to writing styles so my teaching idea is: focus on letting students understand the plot development of the article, and finally strengthen the mastery of the plot through different activities. 5、 Teaching process Step 1 Activate and Share A word game and a bookmark made from a leaf as prize,which represents my best wishes to the winner. 设计意图：创设情境，引入主题，激活学生已有语言和知识，为阅读做好准备。 Step 2 Read and Explore What do you know about the story according to five-fingers reading strategy? 设计意图：通过智慧平台部优课视频中蒋老师的介绍，激发学生的学习兴趣。 Step 3 Reading for more details. 2. Work in pairs. Read the story more carefully.And discuss the following questions.(Pair work) (1) What qualities or characteristics can we see from different characters? (2) How did Johnsy change her attitude? (3) What does the writer want to express? Step 4 Read for writing styles Para.2--personification; Para.4-- vividness of details Para.6--simile and personification; Para.13 surprising but logical ending Step 4 Think and Share(Group work) Work in groups. Think about the following questions and share your opinions. 1. What do you think Sue’s comment “it’s Behrman’s masterpiece” means? 2. If you were Behrman, would you do the same as he did? Why? 6、 Blackboard design Lesson 1 The last leafselflessness belief love friendship... hope A masterpiece 7、 Teaching reflection After students complete the two pre-learning links, it is particularly important to analyze the changes in the attitude of the characters step by step in the post-teaching link to give full play to the students' initiative and build a ladder for the students. Therefore, at this stage, focus on the two aspects of reading the storyline and stage play to take students to summarize step by step, and sublimate them, and finally point the topic. However, the amount of tasks in reading is large, so the overall time for students to read carefully is relatively tight. 5 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$Unit 8 Literature Lesson 1 The Last Leaf 1 Personal information ＊True name: William Sydney Porter ＊1862-1919 ＊American short-story writer Notable works ＊The Last Leaf ＊The Gift of the Magi ＊After 20 years ＊......
