Unit 2 Great people Integrated skills 教学设计
I. Teaching Objectives
Enable students to extract detailed information about Marie Curie from text and audio, mastering vocabulary related to her life (birth, education, achievements, etc.).
Develop students’ listening and writing skills by completing notes and sentences about Marie Curie, preparing for exam - related integrated skills tasks.
Enhance students’ speaking skills by discussing admired famous people, using the “Speak up” model to express opinions and reasons, and improving communication about great figures.
II. Language Knowledge
1. Key Vocabulary & Phrases
Marie Curie - related: Warsaw, Paris, Mathematics, Physics, radium, Nobel Prize, laboratory, traffic accident
General: presentation, scientist, professor, teacher, discovery, lifetime
2. Key Sentence Patterns
For information extraction: “Marie Curie (1867 - 1934) was born in...; moved to... when she was...; studied... at a university; married... in...; discovered... in...; won the Nobel Prize...; died at the age of...”
For speaking: “Who do you think is the greatest person in history? I admire... most. Because...”.
3. Key and Challenging Points
Information Extraction: Accurately gathering details about Marie Curie from text (A1) and audio (A2) to complete notes.
Integrated Skills Application: Using extracted information to complete sentences (A3) and participate in speaking (B), which is relevant to exam - related integrated tasks.
Speaking Fluency: Expressing admiration for famous people with clear reasons, enhancing oral communication skills.
III. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Lead - in & Warm - up (5 minutes)
Show a picture of Marie Curie and ask students: “Do you know who she is? What is she famous for?”
Introduce the topic: “Today we’ll learn about Marie Curie, a great scientist, through integrated skills — listening, reading, writing, and speaking. We’ll extract her life information and discuss admired famous people.”
Step 2: Information Extraction from Text (A1) (10 minutes)
Pre - reading:
Present the text about Marie Curie (A1). Teach key vocabulary: Warsaw, radium, Nobel Prize, etc. Ask students to predict the information they can get (e.g., birthplace, education, achievements).
While - reading:
Students read the text and complete as much of Millie’s notes as possible. Walk around to help with vocabulary and information location. For example:
Date of birth: 7 November (1) 1867
Place of birth: (2) Warsaw, Poland
Family: she was (3) the youngest of five children; father was a (4) mathematics professor; mother was a (5) music teacher
High school: finished at the age of (6) 16
Work: worked as a (7) governess
Moved to: (8) Paris, France in 1891
At university: studied (9) Mathematics and (10) Physics
Married to: Pierre Curie, a (11) French scientist, in 1895
Famous for: the discovery of (12) radium
Won the Nobel Prize for: (13) Physics in 1903
Husband’s death: Pierre Curie died in a (14) traffic accident in (15) 1906
Won the Nobel Prize for: (16) Chemistry in 1911
Date of death: (17) 4 July 1934, aged (18) 67
Post - reading:
Check answers as a class. Discuss any difficult information extraction, emphasizing how to find specific details (e.g., birth year, place) in the text.
Step 3: Listening Practice (A2) (8 minutes)
Pre - listening:
Tell students they will listen to a recording about Marie Curie to complete the remaining notes in A1. Preview the blanks and remind them to focus on missing information (e.g., family details, more achievements).
While - listening:
Play the audio (A2). Students listen and complete the notes. Pause if necessary to help catch details.
Post - listening:
Check answers, discussing any differences between text and audio information. Ensure students understand how to use both text and audio for integrated skills.
Step 4: Sentence Completion (A3) (7 minutes)
Pre - writing:
Present A3. Explain that students need to use information from A1 to complete Millie’s presentation sentences. Remind them of sentence structures and tense consistency.
While - writing:
Students complete the sentences independently. Walk around to help with information retrieval and grammar. For example:
“She was from (1) Poland.”
“When she was 24, she went to (2) Paris to study (3) Mathematics and (4) Physics at a university.”
“There she met Pierre Curie, a (5) French scientist. They got married in (6) 1895.”
“The couple won the (7) Nobel Prize in 1903 for the discovery of (8) radium.”
“In (9) 1911, Marie Curie won her second Nobel Prize, but sadly, Pierre was not there to share the joy with her — he died in a traffic accident in (10) 1906.”
Post - writing:
Check answers as a class. Have students read the completed sentences aloud to practice pronunciation and fluency.
Step 5: Speaking Practice (B) (10 minutes)
Pre - speaking:
Present the “Speak up” model dialogue. Read it with students, explaining key questions and responses: “Who do you think is the greatest person in history? Why do you admire her/him?”
Introduce more famous people (e.g., Nelson Mandela, Qian Xuesen) and their achievements for discussion ideas.
While - speaking:
Students work in pairs. One acts as Millie, the other as Simon, to discuss admired famous people. Encourage using the model and adding personal reasons. For example:
“I admire Marie Curie because she won the Nobel Prize twice and contributed to science.”
“I admire Neil Armstrong because he was brave to explore the Moon.”
Walk around to monitor, correct pronunciation, and encourage longer dialogues.
Post - speaking:
Invite 2 - 3 pairs to perform their dialogues. Comment on content (clarity of reasons) and language (fluency, grammar).
Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 minutes)
Summary (2 minutes):
Recap the key points: extracting Marie Curie’s information, completing sentences, and speaking about admired famous people. Emphasize the importance of integrated skills for exam success.
Homework (3 minutes):
Ask students to write a short dialogue (8 - 10 sentences) about admired famous people, using the “Speak up” model.
Find more information about a famous person’s contributions to share in the next class.
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Formative Assessment:
Observe students’ performance in information extraction (A1, A2), sentence completion (A3), and speaking (B).
Check for accuracy in notes, sentences, and fluency in speaking.
Summative Assessment (for later):
Evaluate homework dialogues for content and language use.
Use a quiz to assess integrated skills (listening, reading, writing, speaking) about famous people.
V. Design Purpose
Skill Integration: Combines listening, reading, writing, and speaking to enhance practical language use, mirroring exam - related integrated tasks.
Content - Focused: Focuses on Marie Curie and other great people, enriching students’ knowledge of influential figures.
Communication - Oriented: Encourages speaking about admired people, improving oral communication skills for exams and real - life interactions.
