Unit 3 Robots Integrated skills 教学设计
I. Teaching Objectives
Enable students to extract detailed information about the robot show from text and audio, mastering vocabulary related to event details (time, place, ticket, robot functions).
Develop students’ listening and writing skills by completing notes and an email about the robot show, preparing for exam - related integrated skills tasks.
Enhance students’ speaking skills by role - playing a phone call about robot service needs, using the “Speak up” model to communicate problems and solutions, and improving interaction about robot - related issues.
II. Language Knowledge
1. Key Vocabulary & Phrases
Robot show - related: town hall, ticket, special gift, Robot magazine, virus, Customer Service Department
Robot functions: help with homework, read a book, tell about it, memory, get sth wrong, oil, batteries
2. Key Sentence Patterns
For information extraction: “There is going to be a robot show...; Robots from... will be displayed; The show will be held at...; It is from... to...; It begins at... and finishes at...; The price of a ticket is...; One of the robots is designed to...”.
For speaking: “My robot has caught a virus and it has gone wrong. Would you like us to have it checked?”.
3. Key and Challenging Points
Information Extraction: Accurately gathering details about the robot show from text (A1) and audio (A2) to complete notes.
Integrated Skills Application: Using extracted information to complete an email (A5) and participate in speaking (B), which is relevant to exam - related integrated tasks.
Speaking Fluency: Expressing robot - related problems and service requests with clear reasons, enhancing oral communication skills.
III. Teaching Procedures
Step 1: Lead - in & Warm - up (5 minutes)
Show a picture of a robot show and ask students: “What do you think will be at a robot show? What robots would you like to see?”.
Introduce the topic: “Today we’ll learn about a robot show through integrated skills — listening, reading, writing, and speaking. We’ll extract event details and discuss robot service needs.”
Step 2: Information Extraction from Text (A1) (10 minutes)
Pre - reading:
Present the text about the robot show (A1). Teach key vocabulary: town hall, special gift, etc. Ask students to predict the information they can get (e.g., time, place, robot functions).
While - reading:
Students read the text and complete as much of Daniel’s notes as possible. Walk around to help with vocabulary and information location. For example:
Robots from China, (2) Japan and South Korea will be displayed.
The show will be held at the (3) town hall.
It is from (4) 14 to (5) 22 March.
It begins at (6) 9 a.m. and finishes at (7) 4:30 p.m.
The price of a ticket is (8) ¥20 for people 12 years and above.
One of the robots is designed to help students with their (9) homework. It can read a book (10) in five minutes and tell you about it in (11) clear language. It has a (12) good memory. It never gets anything (13) wrong. It does not get (14) tired. You need to give it some oil (15) every month and change the batteries every (16) two months.
Post - reading:
Check answers as a class. Discuss any difficult information extraction, emphasizing how to find specific details (e.g., time, place) in the text.
Step 3: Listening Practice (A2) (8 minutes)
Pre - listening:
Tell students they will listen to a radio programme about the robot show to complete the remaining notes in A1. Preview the blanks and remind them to focus on missing information (e.g., more robot functions, event details).
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: Email Completion (A5) (7 minutes)
Pre - writing:
Present A5. Explain that students need to use information from A1 to complete Daniel’s email to Simon. Remind them of email structure and tense consistency.
While - writing:
Students complete the email independently. Walk around to help with information retrieval and grammar. For example:
“There is going to be a (1) robot show this week.”
“The show is held at the (2) town hall. We can see robots from (3) China, Japan and South Korea.”
“One of the robots is designed to (4) help students with their homework.”
“It can read a book (5) in five minutes.”
“We will receive a (6) copy of Robot magazine for free if we go there on the first day of the show.”
“Since we are over (7) 12 years old, we need to pay (8) ¥20 each for the tickets.”
“The show begins at (9) 9 a.m.”
Post - writing:
Check answers as a class. Have students read the completed email 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: “My robot has caught a virus... Would you like us to have it checked?”.
Introduce more robot - related problems (e.g., robot stops working, makes mistakes) and service requests for discussion ideas.
While - speaking:
Students work in groups of three to practice the model dialogue and then discuss more robot service needs. Encourage using the model and adding personal problems. For example:
“My robot has a bad memory and forgets to do tasks. Can you fix it?”.
“My robot moves too fast and knocks things over. What can you do?”.
Walk around to monitor, correct pronunciation, and encourage longer dialogues.
Post - speaking:
Invite 2 - 3 groups to perform their dialogues. Comment on content (clarity of problems) and language (fluency, grammar).
Step 6: Summary & Homework (5 minutes)
Summary (2 minutes):
Recap the key points: extracting robot show information, completing the email, and speaking about robot service needs. Emphasize the importance of integrated skills for exam success.
Homework (3 minutes):
Ask students to write a short dialogue (8 - 10 sentences) about robot problems and service requests, using the “Speak up” model.
Find more information about a real - life robot show or robot service to share in the next class.
IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness
Formative Assessment:
Observe students’ performance in information extraction (A1, A2), email completion (A5), and speaking (B).
Check for accuracy in notes, email, 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 robot shows.
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 a robot show and robot service needs, enriching students’ knowledge of robot - related events and interactions.
Communication - Oriented: Encourages speaking about robot problems, improving oral communication skills for exams and real - life interactions.
