Unit 8 Green Living Roots and shoots 教学设计
课标分析
本文是北师大版高中英语必修三 Unit 8中的一篇文章,本节课是这个单元的第一个课时,主要介绍了环境保护组织“Roots and Shoots”,本课是北师大版第八单元的第一个课时,这一单元的主要话题是 green living,主要介绍了环境保护组织"Roots and Shoots”,文章展开了一个话题,那就是节约能源,人和动物、植物的和谐,这篇文章属于人和社会这个主题,介绍了一些能源浪费的现象和"Roots and Shoots”的发展。这篇文章暗示了人类、社会和自然的多重信息,还有作者的思考和感受,使学生在阅读的过程中明白勿以善小而不为,勿以恶小而为之,保护环境需要每个人的努力。文中生词量不大,文章结构比较简单;阅读难度不大,但是如何引导学生归纳总结给教学设计带来了极大的困难。《普通高中英语课程标准》要求教师侧重于培养学生的阅读策略;培养语感;特别强培养学生在阅读过程中获取和处理信息的能力。由于我所教班级的学生英语水平一般,因此,我将本课的教学目标设定为:
1.语言技能目标:
(1)能够用所学单词,句子介绍 Roots and Shoots。
(2)能够运用所学知识说服他人加入到保护环境中来。
(3)能够完成课堂所给任务。
2.语言知识目标:能够正确运用以下单词:
leave the tap running, not be bothered to do, take action, firm foundation, break open, all around the world 等
3.文化意识目标:能够明白保护环境人人有责
4.情感态度目标:
(1)意识到环境保护需要每个人的努力。
(2)积极从自身做起,保护环境。
(3)明白勿以善小而不为,勿以恶小而为之。
根据既定教学目标,我设计了以下的教学模式:
通过观看根与芽组织的视频,让学生初步感知该组织;在教学过程中,通过阅读练习等活动让学生进一步了解该组织,从而使学生认识到个人的力量,有为了保护环境去做自己力所能及的事情的意识。
