课 时 教 案 课题：Welcome to the unit (1) U4B4 第　1　课时 总序第18个教案 课型： New lesson 编写时间:2024年9月20日 执教时间：2024年9月24日 教学目标：1. read aloud the poems and enjoy the beauty of poetry; 批　注 2. illustrate their feelings when reading the two poems; 3. share with peers their favourite poems and poets. 教学重点： illustrate their feelings when reading the two poems; 教学难点：share with peers their favourite poems and poets. 教学用具：Multi-media 教学方法：Group work, discussion 教学实施过程： 1. Have students discuss the following questions related to the topic of poetry. (1) What is poetry? What is the biggest difference between poetry and other genres of literature? Poetry is a literary work in which a poet expresses beautiful and elegant quality, and his or her feelings through a distinctive style. Poetry differs from other genres of literature in that it highlights the aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language, such as the sound symbolism represented by rhythms and rhymes, which are the actual sound effects created by the lines of poetry. (2) What is your understanding of the quotation on page 43? Poetry is an expression of what one feels or thinks in his/her heart or mind. When it is kept to oneself inside, it is called “one’s will”, but when it is expressed in words and shared with others, it is called poetry. 2. Have students answer the following questions. Are you interested in reading poems? Have you ever read any English poems? I enjoy reading Chinese poems, especially those written in the Tang Dynasty. I have read a few English poems before, for example, “A Grain of Sand” by William Blake and 批　注 “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” by Robert Frost. 3. Have students read aloud the two poems on page 43 and then answer the following question. What are the themes of the two poems “A Spring Morning” and “Dreams”? “A Spring Morning” reveals the poet’s love of spring and his regret at its departure. In “Dreams”, Langston Hughes emphasizes the importance of having dreams in one’s life. 4. Have students work in pairs to answer the two questions on page 43. 1) Both poems are very descriptive. I like the first one because it focuses on the topic of spring and clearly describes a spring morning in a way that is easy to understand. The second one is about dreams and uses some artistic techniques, such as metaphor and personification. Even though it is a little bit more difficult to understand, it is interesting to read. 2) Du Fu: He wrote poems about the beauty of nature and his experiences while travelling. He had a great gift for language. He met Li Bai on his travels and he admired the great poet very much. I know his poem “On Yueyang Tower”, which describes what he saw and how he felt while he visited the great tower. 3)Bai Juyi: A poet from the Tang Dynasty, he started writing poetry from a very young age and most of his poems were accessible and appealing to the masses. His poem “The Old Charcoal Seller” tells of the people’s tough life and the government’s corruption during those times. 5. Have students answer the following question. What is your favourite poem? My favourite poem is “A Moonlit Night on the Spring River” by Zhang Ruoxu, a poet from the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes five of the most beautiful things in nature: spring, rivers, flowers, the moon and the night, in a romantic way. 教学反思： 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
