Unit 6 Electricity everywhere Section 4 教学设计 I. Teaching Objectives 1. Knowledge Objectives Students will understand the article about Earth Hour and renewable energy, mastering vocabulary like climate change, hydropower, wind turbines, solar farms. Students will learn to extract cultural (Earth Hour’s purpose, history) and scientific (renewable energy types) details, answering questions and completing tasks. 2. Ability Objectives Improve reading skills: Comprehending cultural (Earth Hour) and scientific (renewable energy) texts, analyzing connections and global practices. Enhance cultural awareness: Understanding energy - saving campaigns and international renewable energy applications. 3. Affective Objectives Foster appreciation for global energy - saving efforts (Earth Hour), inspiring participation in environmental actions. Encourage curiosity about renewable energy solutions, strengthening the connection between electricity use and sustainable development. II. Language Knowledge 1. Key Vocabulary & Phrases Cultural: Earth Hour, climate change, power station, take part in. Scientific: renewable energy, hydropower, wind turbines, solar farms, geothermal energy, biofuels. 2. Key Sentence Patterns From cultural text: “On the last Saturday night of March, people turn off lights for Earth Hour to show care for climate change.” From scientific text: “The Three Gorges Dam produces electricity from hydropower. Britain uses wind turbines off its coast.” 3. Key and Challenging Points Key Points: Comprehending Earth Hour’s role in energy saving; understanding global renewable energy types and examples. Challenging Points: Analyzing complex energy - saving impacts (Earth Hour’s influence); mastering technical renewable - energy terms. III. Teaching Procedures (45 Minutes) Step 1 Pre - reading: Activate Energy - Saving Knowledge (8 Minutes) Activity 1: Discuss Energy Saving Use the “Think” prompt (“How can we save energy in our daily lives?”). Students share ideas about turning off lights, using renewable sources, activating cultural text themes. Activity 2: Introduce Renewable Themes Show renewable energy pictures (solar panels, wind turbines). Ask “What do you know about these energy sources?” to activate scientific text themes. Step 2 Reading: Earth Hour & Renewable Energy (15 Minutes) Activity 1: Read Cultural Article Students read about Earth Hour, answer questions (e.g., “When is Earth Hour? Why do people participate?”). Discuss its global impact on energy saving. Activity 2: Vocabulary in Context Match cultural vocabulary to meanings (e.g., “climate change” “long - term weather shift”). Activity 3: Read Scientific Text Students read about renewable energy types, match paragraphs to pictures (Exercise 1), identifying hydropower, wind, solar, geothermal, biofuels. Step 3 Cross - curricular: Discuss Culture & Science (10 Minutes) Activity 1: Answer Scientific Questions Discuss renewable energy details, ensuring understanding of how each type works (e.g., hydropower from dams). Activity 2: Cultural - Scientific Link Discuss: “How does Earth Hour (culture) connect to using renewable energy (science) for sustainability?” Step 4 Discussion & Extension (8 Minutes) Activity 1: Reflect on Energy Actions Discuss: “Why is Earth Hour useful? How do renewable energies help reduce pollution?” Activity 2: Explore More Energy Topics Introduce the “Exploring more” task: Calculate home/school energy savings for Earth Hour, or research local renewable projects, and share findings. Step 5 Summary & Homework (4 Minutes) Summary: Recap Earth Hour’s purpose, renewable energy types, and their role in sustainability. Homework: Write a short paragraph comparing Earth Hour’s impact with renewable energy’s long - term benefits. Find one fun fact about a local renewable energy project or Earth Hour event and share it in class. IV. Assessment of Teaching Effectiveness Check reading comprehension for accurate Earth Hour answers and renewable - energy picture matching. Evaluate discussions for depth of cultural and scientific understanding. V. Design Purpose Cultural & Scientific Integration: Link energy - saving campaigns (culture) with renewable energy solutions (science), promoting interdisciplinary learning. Action - driven Learning: Use Earth Hour participation and renewable energy examples to engage students, making language learning meaningful for sustainability. VI. Blackboard Design Unit 6 Section 4—Culture & Science of Energy Key Vocabulary: Earth Hour, climate change, hydropower, wind turbines Key Sentences: “Earth Hour raises energy - saving awareness. Renewable energy reduces pollution.” Homework: Cross - curricular paragraph + local energy - fact sharing! 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
