Unit 1 You and Me Section A Grammar Focus 教学设计 2025-2026学年人教版英语七年级上册

Unit 1 You and Me Section A Grammar Focus 教学设计 This part of the curriculum focuses on fundamental grammar knowledge, mainly the usage of the be - verb, personal pronouns, and possessive adjectives. It helps students build a solid foundation for expressing themselves and communicating about personal information. Through a series of sentences and examples, students are guided to understand how to correctly use different forms of the be - verb according to different subjects, as well as the functions and usage scenarios of personal pronouns and possessive adjectives. 教学目标 0. Students should be able to master the basic usage of the be - verb and its collocation rules with personal pronouns. For example, "I am", "you are", "he/she/it is", "we/you/they are". 0. Identify different personal pronouns and correctly state their collocation relationships with the be - verb, initially establishing a sense of subject - verb agreement. 0. Recognize the corresponding possessive adjectives for different personal pronouns and use them correctly in context. 教学重难点 0. The collocation rules of the be - verb (am/is/are) with different personal pronouns. This is the core knowledge that students must firmly grasp, as it is frequently used in daily communication. 0. The formation and usage of affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences with the be - verb. Students need to be proficient in these sentence patterns to communicate effectively. 0. The correct use of personal pronouns as subjects and the corresponding possessive adjectives. 0. Helping students fully understand the concept of subject - verb agreement, especially when dealing with complex sentence structures or collective nouns in the future. At this stage, students may easily make mistakes in choosing the correct form of the be - verb. 0. Differentiating between the usage of possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns, as their functions are similar but have distinct usage scenarios. 1. Be - verb 0. Forms: The be - verb has three forms in the simple present tense: am, is, and are. The form of the be - verb changes according to the subject of the sentence. 9. "am" is used with the first - person singular subject "I". For example, "I am a middle - school student." 9. "is" is used with the third - person singular subjects "he", "she", and "it". For example, "He is tall." "She is kind." "It is a cute dog." 9. "are" is used with the second - person singular and plural subjects "you", as well as the first - person plural subject "we" and the third - person plural subject "they". For example, "You are smart." "We are friends." "They are from America." 0. Sentence Patterns 10. Affirmative Sentence: Subject + be + other components. For example, "My mother is a teacher." 10. Negative Sentence: Subject + be + not+ other components. Note that "am not" cannot be abbreviated, while "is not" can be abbreviated as "isn't", and "are not" can be abbreviated as "aren't". For example, "He isn't at home." "They aren't in the classroom." 10. Interrogative Sentence: Be + subject + other components? The answer is usually in the form of "Yes, subject + be." or "No, subject + be + not." For example, "Is she your sister? Yes, she is." "Are they students? No, they aren't." 1. Personal Pronouns 0. Concept: Personal pronouns are words that represent "you", "I", "he", "you all", "we", etc. They have changes in person (first, second, third person), number (singular, plural), and case (nominative, objective). 0. Nominative Case: Used as the subject in a sentence, indicating the doer of the action. For example, "I like reading." "They play basketball every day." 0. Objective Case: Used as the object in a sentence, indicating the receiver of the action, usually placed after verbs and prepositions. For example, "Give it to me." "We all like him." 2. Possessive Adjectives 0. Concept: Possessive adjectives are pronouns that express a possessive relationship, divided into adjective - type possessive adjectives and noun - type possessive adjectives. Here we focus on adjective - type possessive adjectives. 0. Usage: Adjective - type possessive adjectives are equivalent to adjectives, placed before nouns to modify them and cannot be used alone, indicating "whose". For example, "my book", "your pen", "his bag", "her cat", "our classroom", "their school". 教学过程 I. Warm - up (5 minutes) 1. Greeting: The teacher starts the class with a warm greeting, such as “Good morning/afternoon, class! How are you today?” This helps create a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. 1. Quick Review: The teacher briefly reviews the personal pronouns (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) learned in the previous class by asking students to quickly recall and say them out loud. For example, the teacher points to different students and asks them to name a personal pronoun. This review serves as a connection to the grammar focus of this class, as the usage of the be - verb is closely related to personal pronouns. II. Presentation (10 minutes) 1. Rules Introduction: The teacher writes the following on the blackboard: a. “I am...” b. “You are...” c. “He/She/It is...” d. “We/You/They are...” e. Then, the teacher explains the basic rules of using the be - verb “am, is, are” with different personal pronouns. For instance, “am” is used only with the first - person singular subject “I”. “is” is for the third - person singular subjects (he, she, it), and “are” is for the second - person singular and plural (you), as well as the first - person plural “we” and the third - person plural “they”. The teacher gives simple examples like “I am a student. You are my friend. He is tall.” 2. Visual Aids: To make the rules more vivid, the teacher uses flashcards with pictures of different people or objects. For example, a flashcard with a picture of a boy has “He is a boy.” written on it, and a card with two girls has “They are girls.” The teacher shows these flashcards one by one and asks students to read the sentences aloud, emphasizing the correct form of the be - verb. III. Practice (15 minutes) 1.Exercise 3a: a. The teacher asks students to open their textbooks to Exercise 3a. In this exercise, there are some personal pronouns and sentences with blanks for the be - verb. The teacher asks students to read the sentences carefully and fill in the blanks with the correct form of “am, is, are”. b. After students finish, the teacher asks them to check their answers in pairs. Then, the teacher goes through the answers with the whole class, inviting students to explain why they chose a particular form of the be - verb for each blank. 2.Group Activity: The teacher divides the class into groups of four. Each group is given a set of cards with different personal pronouns and simple descriptions. For example, one card might have “she” and “a singer”, another might have “they” and “football players”. The students in each group need to make sentences using the correct form of the be - verb, like “She is a singer. They are football players.” Each group member takes turns to make a sentence, and the others in the group listen and correct if there are any mistakes. IV. Further Practice (10 minutes) 1. Exercise 3b: a. For Exercise 3b, which contains sentences with options for the correct be - verb, the teacher asks students to circle the correct words independently. This exercise focuses on subject - verb agreement, and it helps students strengthen their understanding of choosing the appropriate form of the be - verb according to the subject. b. After students complete the exercise, the teacher asks them to share their answers and the reasons for their choices in small groups. Then, the teacher randomly selects some students to report their group's discussion results to the whole class. 2. Sentence Building Game: The teacher starts a sentence - building game. The teacher says a personal pronoun, such as “he”, and the first student has to quickly make a sentence with “he” and the correct form of the be - verb, like “He is happy today.” Then, this student says another personal pronoun, for example, “we”, and the next student in turn makes a sentence with “we” and the correct be - verb form. If a student makes a mistake, the teacher corrects it immediately and the game continues. This game adds an element of fun and competition to the learning process, making students more engaged. V. Production (10 minutes) 1. Exercise 3c: a. The teacher assigns Exercise 3c, where students need to complete a passage about self - introduction and introducing a friend with “am, is, are”. The teacher encourages students to think carefully about the subject of each sentence and choose the right form of the be - verb. b. While students are working on the passage, the teacher walks around the classroom, providing individual guidance and answering any questions. After most students have finished, the teacher asks several students to read their completed passages aloud. The class listens and checks for any possible errors together. 2. Mini - Presentation: The teacher asks students to prepare a short mini - presentation about themselves and a classmate. They need to use at least five sentences with the correct form of the be - verb. For example, “I am 12 years old. My classmate is from Beijing. We are in the same class. She is good at English. They are my new friends.” Students can make some simple notes first. Then, they take turns to stand up in front of the class and give their mini - presentations. This activity allows students to apply the grammar knowledge they have learned in a more practical and communicative way. VI. Summary (5 minutes) 1. Recap: The teacher briefly recaps the key points of using “am, is, are” with different personal pronouns. The teacher asks students to recall the rules and examples they have learned throughout the class. 2. Q & A: The teacher opens the floor for questions. Students can ask any remaining questions they have about the usage of the be - verb. The teacher answers these questions and clarifies any misunderstandings. 3. Homework Assignment: The teacher assigns homework, which includes writing a short paragraph about their family members using the be - verb correctly. For example, “My father is a doctor. My mother is a teacher. I am their only child. We are a happy family.” This homework helps students further practice and consolidate the grammar knowledge at home. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
