Unit 1 Animal protection D Listening and speaking 教学设计
I. Teaching Objectives
Guide students to understand the impact of species extinction on ecosystems and humans through listening, mastering how to extract key information (causes, effects, solutions).
Develop students’ listening skills in identifying main topics, verifying facts, and completing details, and speaking skills in discussing ecosystem balance and endangered animals (using “What can we do...?”, “Why...?”).
Enhance awareness of ecosystem interdependence and critical thinking about human actions’ role in protecting biodiversity.
II. Language Knowledge
1. Key words & phrases
Ecosystem - related: extinction, food chain, imbalance, endangered species
Listening for: main topic, causes (poaching, habitat loss), effects (population decline), solutions (protect habitats, raise money)
Functional language: “What other reasons...?”, “How can we protect...?”, “Is it possible to...?”
2. Key sentences
Listening answers: “The podcast’s main topic is keeping ecosystem balance.”, “Tiger numbers decreased by 95% due to poaching and habitat loss.”
Discussion expressions: “What can we do to keep ecosystem balance?”, “Why are short - faced bears extinct?”
3. Key and challenging points
Listening Comprehension: Distinguishing main topics from details, and accurately capturing cause - effect relationships in fast - paced audio.
Speaking about Solutions: Articulating practical ways to protect ecosystems and endangered animals, using clear and persuasive language.
Critical Thinking: Analyzing human impacts on species extinction and evaluating the effectiveness of proposed solutions.
III. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Pre - listening — Ecosystem Awareness (7 minutes)
D1 Brainstorm (4 minutes):
Students tick D1 effects of species extinction. Share in pairs: “Why is ‘broken food chain’ a problem?”, linking to ecosystem balance.
Vocabulary Link (3 minutes):
Preteach key terms (extinction, food chain) with simple examples (e.g., “If bees go extinct, flowers can’t grow → broken food chain”), prepping for D2.
Step 2: While - listening — Extract Information (18 minutes)
D2 - D4 Listening Sequence (10 minutes):
Play D2 (main topic: keep ecosystem balance), D3 (true/false: correct “Only adults can help” to “Kids can too”), D4 (complete sentences: “protect habitats”, “make a difference”). Discuss answers, emphasizing main topic identification and fact - checking.
D7 - D8 Animal - Specific Listening (8 minutes):
Do D7 (what’s talked about: tigers, short - faced bears) and D8 (complete cause - effect table: tigers’ decline due to poaching/habitat loss). Play audio, focus on extracting species - specific details.
Step 3: Post - listening — Discuss & Act (12 minutes)
D5 & D9 Solution Discussion (6 minutes):
Students discuss D5: “What can we do to balance ecosystems?”, using ideas from the podcast (protect habitats, raise awareness). Then D9: “Other dinosaur extinction reasons?”, encouraging creative critical thinking (e.g., climate change).
D10 Role - play (6 minutes):
Practice D10 role - play: tourist - guide conversation about zoo animals. Use functional language: “Can you show me around?”, “Why is the sea turtle endangered?”. Walk around to help with question formation and pronunciation.
Step 4: Integration & Reflection (5 minutes)
Summary of Impacts (3 minutes):
Recap: species extinction breaks food chains, causes imbalance. Solutions: protect habitats, everyone (kids/adults) can help.
Personal Pledge (2 minutes):
Ask: “What’s one small action you’ll take to protect animals?”, letting students share commitments (e.g., reduce waste, support conservation).
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Formative Assessment:
Check D2 - D4 for main topic capture and detail accuracy.
Observe D5, D9, D10 for discussion fluency and solution creativity.
Summative Assessment:
Evaluate role - plays for clear communication, accurate use of ecosystem vocabulary, and persuasive solution - sharing.
V. Design Purpose
Skill Integration: Combines listening (extracting main topics, details) and speaking (discussing solutions, role - playing) to address real - world ecosystem issues.
Real - Life Relevance: Links content to personal actions, making animal protection tangible and urgent.
Critical Engagement: Encourages questioning human impacts and brainstorming solutions, fostering environmental stewardship.
VI. Blackboard Design
Unit 1 Listening & Speaking — Ecosystem Balance
Key Impacts of Extinction: Broken food chain, ecosystem imbalance
Solutions: Protect habitats, raise money, everyone helps
Role - play Language: “Can you show me around?”, “Why is... endangered?”, “What can we do to protect...?”
VII. Teaching Reflection
If students struggle with fast audio, provide transcripts for tricky sections.
For role - play, model 1 - 2 example dialogues to show natural questioning. Celebrate creative solutions and passionate discussions about animal protection.
