Unit 6 Seasons Word power 教学设计
I. Teaching Objectives
1. Knowledge Objectives
Students will master the suffix -y to form adjectives from nouns (e.g., cloud → cloudy, sun → sunny).
Students will accurately apply these -y adjectives in describing the weather and climate of Beijing and their hometowns.
2. Ability Objectives
Improve word - building skills by applying the -y suffix rule to form adjectives.
Enhance reading and writing abilities through completing textbook tasks and composing climate descriptions.
3. Affective Objectives
Foster awareness of word - formation rules, encouraging exploration of English vocabulary related to weather.
Inspire students to observe and appreciate the climate and weather in their daily lives.
II. Language Knowledge
1. Key Words & Phrases
Suffix: -y; Nouns → adjectives: cloud → cloudy, wind → windy, rain → rainy, snow → snowy, sun → sunny, fog → foggy, luck → lucky, health → healthy, sleep → sleepy, shine → shiny, noise → noisy, fun → funny; Weather - related descriptions: sunny, dry, foggy, rainy
2. Key Sentences
“We can add the suffix -y to some nouns to form adjectives. The suffix -y means ‘having the quality of’.”
“Spring in Beijing is short. It is a sunny and dry season. It is also (1) ______. Some people in the street cover their faces with scarves. It makes them look a bit (2) ______.”
3. Key and Challenging Points
Key Points: Master the rule of adding the -y suffix to form adjectives from nouns.
Challenging Points: Correctly applying the -y suffix to nouns (e.g., shine → shiny, noise → noisy) and using the adjectives appropriately in context.
III. Teaching Procedures (Total Duration: 45 Minutes)
Step 1 Introduction to the -y Suffix (7 Minutes)
Show example words (e.g., cloud → cloudy, sun → sunny) and ask: “How does adding -y change the part of speech? What does it mean?”
Introduce the topic: “Today, we’ll learn to form weather - related adjectives using the -y suffix and use them to describe seasons and climate!”
Step 2 Suffix Explanation & Practice (12 Minutes)
Rule Presentation:
Explain that adding -y to nouns forms adjectives meaning “having the quality of” the noun (e.g., rain → rainy means “having rain”).
Highlight spelling patterns:
For nouns ending in e, drop e and add -y (e.g., shine → shiny).
For nouns ending in l, double l and add -y (e.g., travel → travelly—though not in our list, for awareness).
For most nouns, directly add -y (e.g., cloud → cloudy).
Quick Quiz: Call out nouns; students say the adjective with -y (e.g., “wind → windy!”).
Step 3 Text Completion—Activity A (10 Minutes)
Students complete Millie’s article about Beijing’s weather (Activity A) with -y adjectives. Walk around to assist, emphasizing correct suffix application (e.g., “noise → noisy”, “sleep → sleepy”).
Check answers together, discussing why each adjective is used (e.g., “windy” for spring wind, “rainy” for summer rain).
Step 4 Application—Describing Hometown Climate (10 Minutes)
Task: Students write about the climate in their hometown, using at least 5 -y adjectives (Activity B). Example: “My hometown has snowy winters, rainy springs, sunny summers, and foggy autumns. It’s a healthy place to live, but can be noisy in summer.”
Share & Feedback: Invite students to share their descriptions. Provide feedback on adjective use and climate details.
Step 5 Summary & Homework (6 Minutes)
Summary (3 Minutes): Recap the -y suffix rule and key adjectives (e.g., cloudy, windy, sunny).
Homework (3 Minutes):
Word - building: Make a list of 10 new nouns and form adjectives by adding -y (check spelling).
Writing: Write a short paragraph about your favorite season’s weather in your hometown, using -y adjectives.
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Check Activity A answers for correct -y adjective application.
Evaluate Activity B writing for accurate -y adjective use and vivid climate descriptions.
V. Design Purpose
Introduction: Use textbook examples to spark interest in word - building related to weather.
Explanation/Practice: Clear rule breakdown + quick quiz for active learning.
Text Completion: Apply suffixes in context to reinforce understanding.
Extension: Link to personal hometown climate, expanding vocabulary use for meaningful description.
VI. Blackboard Design
Unit 6 Word power—The -y Suffix
Suffix Rule:
- Noun + -y → Adjective (e.g., cloud → cloudy)
Spelling Notes:
- shine → shiny (drop ‘e’)
- noise → noisy (add ‘-y’)
Key Adjectives:
cloudy, windy, rainy, snowy, sunny, foggy, lucky, healthy, sleepy, shiny, noisy, funny
Homework: Write about your hometown’s climate!
VII. Teaching Reflection
Strengths: The -y suffix is taught with practical weather - related examples, making learning relevant.
Weaknesses: Some students may struggle with spelling changes when adding -y (e.g., shine → shiny).
Improvements: Add a “suffix spelling” game: Present nouns with different endings and have students race to form correct -y adjectives. This reinforces spelling rules and makes learning fun.
