Unit 5 Art world Grammar 教学设计
I. Teaching Objectives
1. Knowledge Objectives
Students will master using because, since and as to give reasons in sentences, understanding their tone and usage differences.
Students will be able to apply these conjunctions correctly in various contexts related to the art world.
2. Ability Objectives
Improve sentence - building skills by forming reason - giving sentences with because, since and as.
Enhance writing skills by using these conjunctions to create coherent diary entries and festival - related descriptions.
3. Affective Objectives
Develop a sense of logical expression in English, fostering clear communication about artistic experiences and reasons.
Strengthen appreciation for how language structures (reason - giving conjunctions) support expressing ideas about art.
II. Language Knowledge
1. Key Words & Phrases
Reason - giving conjunctions: because, since, as
Art - related expressions: art festival, opera, practise hard, design posters
2. Key Sentences
“I like listening to music because it makes me feel relaxed.”
“Since he has no musical instruments then, he made music with common objects like stones and paper.”
“As she can draw very well, Sandy will design the posters for the art festival.”
3. Key and Challenging Points
Key Points: Correctly using because, since and as to introduce reason clauses; recognizing their tone differences (because is stronger, since/as are milder).
Challenging Points: Choosing the most appropriate conjunction for different contexts; avoiding repetition in reason - giving.
III. Teaching Procedures (Total Duration: 45 Minutes)
Step 1 Lead - in (6 Minutes)
Show a picture of someone painting and ask: “Why do you think she likes painting? Can you use ‘because’ to answer?” (e.g., “She likes painting because it’s creative.”)
Introduce: “Today, we’ll learn to give reasons in English using because, since and as—let’s see how they work in talking about art!”
Step 2 Explanation of Conjunctions (12 Minutes)
because (6 Minutes)
Definition & Examples: because introduces strong reasons.
E.g., “He loves natural sounds because the best music comes from nature.”
Usage: Often answers why questions. Practice with simple sentences (e.g., “Why do you love music? Because it relaxes me.”)
since and as (6 Minutes)
Definition & Examples: since and as introduce already - known, milder reasons.
since: “Since he is good at it, Daniel decided to play the violin.”
as: “As she can draw well, Sandy will design posters.”
Tone Comparison: Explain because is stronger; since/as are more matter - of - fact.
Step 3 Practice with Art - Related Tasks (15 Minutes)
Part A: Questions about Tan Dun (7 Minutes)
Students use because to answer Daniel’s questions about Tan Dun (e.g., “Why was Tan Dun chosen for the Olympics? Because he is a world - famous composer.”)
Part B1: Art Festival Sentences (8 Minutes)
Students complete B1, forming sentences with since or as for the art festival (e.g., “Kitty will dance at the show since she has to practise hard these days.”).
Discuss: Why since/as are suitable here (known reasons, mild tone).
Step 4 Diary Entry Writing (8 Minutes)
Part B2: Sandy’s Diary (6 Minutes)
Students help Sandy complete her diary using because, since or as. Focus on choosing the right conjunction for each context (e.g., “Our school gave us tickets because it helps learn about art.”).
Peer Check (2 Minutes)
Pairs exchange diaries, checking for correct conjunction use and logical reasons.
Step 5 Summary & Homework (4 Minutes)
Summary (2 Minutes): Recap because (strong reason), since/as (milder, known reasons) and their art - related application.
Homework (2 Minutes):
Write 3 sentences about your favorite art form, using because, since and as to give reasons.
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Check Part A and B1 for accurate reason - giving with correct conjunctions.
Evaluate B2 diary entries for appropriate conjunction choice and coherent reasons.
Assess homework sentences for varied and correct use of because, since and as.
V. Design Purpose
Lead - in: Connect to art - loving actions to introduce reason - giving.
Explanation: Clear contrast of conjunction tones helps students choose appropriately.
Practice: Art - themed tasks (Tan Dun, art festival) keep learning relevant and engaging.
Writing & Peer Check: Reinforce skills and promote collaborative learning.
VI. Blackboard Design
Unit 5 Grammar — Giving Reasons with because, since, as
- because: strong reason (answers “why”)
E.g., “I love art because it’s creative.”
- since/as: milder, known reasons
E.g., “Since he’s good at it, he’ll perform. As she can draw, she’ll design.”
Homework: Write 3 art - related reason sentences!
VII. Teaching Reflection
Strengths: Art - themed contexts make grammar relevant; clear tone explanation helps usage.
Weaknesses: Some students might confuse since and as in complex sentences.
Improvements: Add a “Conjunction Sort” game: Give sentences, have students sort by conjunction and explain why.
