Unit 1Animal World. Project 《Design a zoo》英文教学设计

I. Analysis of New Curriculum Theme

This lesson is about the "Natural World" theme. It helps students learn about animals, how to protect them, and their role in nature. By designing a zoo, students will observe animals' looks and habits, see why animals are important in nature, and learn to protect all living things. It matches the new curriculum's goal of mixing language learning with thinking and care for nature.

II. Core Learning Goals

(1) Language Skills

Students can use sentences like "This is... / These are..." and "Here you can see..." to talk about animals and zoo plans.

They can chat about what animals like and why we need to protect them, getting better at speaking English.

(2) Cultural Understanding

Learn what different animals mean in different cultures, and see how animals are part of our lives.

Through talking about protecting animals, students will know why we should love nature and care about all creatures.

(3) Thinking Skills

In group games (like guessing animals) and zoo design, students will practice thinking logically (guessing by animal traits) and creatively (planning cool zoo areas).

By reviewing their designs, they can learn to improve their ideas.

(4) Learning Abilities

Through group work and tasks, students will learn to explore on their own (look up animal info) and work together (share design ideas), using the "learn by doing" way.

III. Key and Difficult Points

(1) Key Points

1. Use target sentences to describe animals and introduce zoo designs clearly.
2. Work in groups to play animal guessing games, design zoos, and show their work.

(2) Difficult Points

1. Explain why they choose certain animals for the zoo (link to their habits and role in nature).
2. Talk deeply about why animal protection is important, and share clear ideas.

IV. Teaching Methods and Learning Strategies

(1) Teaching Methods

Task-based teaching: Give tasks like "guess animals" and "design a zoo" to practice language.

Situational teaching: Make a "zoo" in class so students can talk like they're there.

Multi-evaluation: Use teacher feedback, self-check, and peer review.

(2) Learning Strategies

Group work: Divide tasks in groups to share ideas and help each other.

Inquiry learning: Look up animal info and think about designs alone.

Transfer learning: Use class language in real talks about protecting animals.
