Unit 7 Happy Birthday! Section A Grammar Focus 教学设计 For special interrogative sentences, students are introduced to a series of question words like "what", "when", "where", "who", "why", "how", "how old", "how much", and "how many". They learn how to use these words to form various types of questions. For example, "When is your birthday?" is used to inquire about the time of a birthday; "How old are you?" is for asking about someone's age; "How much is the birthday cake?" is related to the price of an item, and "How many balloons do you need for the party?" focuses on quantity. Through a set of sample sentences provided, students can observe and understand the sentence structures and usage scenarios of these special interrogative sentences in the context of birthday - related topics. Regarding ordinal numbers, students review and further master their usage. They learn that ordinal numbers are used to express the order or sequence, especially when stating dates. For instance, "My birthday is on the 5th of June." Here, "5th" (fifth) is an ordinal number. They also learn how to form ordinal numbers, with regular ones typically ending in "-th", but being aware of irregular forms like "1st" (first), "2nd" (second), "3rd" (third), "5th" (fifth), "8th" (eighth), "9th" (ninth), "12th" (twelfth), etc. 教学目标 0. Develop students' ability to ask and answer questions using appropriate special interrogative sentences in various situations related to birthdays, like asking about birthday dates, ages of people, prices of birthday - related items, and quantities needed for a party. 0. Enable students to express dates and sequences correctly using ordinal numbers in both speaking and writing. They should be able to write and read dates in English accurately, for example, "July 10th" as "July the tenth". 0. Improve students' language - analysis and generalization ability. Through observing and practicing grammar examples, they can summarize grammar rules on their own to a certain extent. 教学重难点 0. Some students may have trouble differentiating between similar - meaning special interrogative words, like "how much" and "how many". Teachers need to provide detailed explanations and more contrastive exercises. 0. Applying the correct grammar structures in real - time communication. Students might make mistakes in sentence formation under the pressure of speaking. Teachers should create more communicative activities to help students get used to using correct grammar spontaneously. 0. Remembering the irregular forms of ordinal numbers. Teachers can use mnemonic devices or interesting stories to assist students in memorizing. 1. Special Interrogative Words and Their Usage 0. What: Used to ask about things, actions, or information when the nature of the object is not clear. For example, "What do you usually do on your birthday?" 0. When: Used to inquire about time, including specific dates, times of day, or periods. Such as "When is the birthday party?" 0. Where: To ask about the location. For instance, "Where will you hold your birthday party?" 0. Who: Used to ask about people. For example, "Who will come to your birthday?" 0. Why: To ask for reasons. "Why do you like birthday parties?" 0. How: To ask about the way, manner, condition, or degree. "How do you feel about your birthday?" 0. How Old: Specifically for asking about someone's age. "How old is your little brother?" 0. How Much: Can be used to ask about the price of something or the quantity of uncountable nouns. "How much is this birthday gift?" or "How much milk do we need for the party?" 0. How Many: Used to ask about the quantity of countable nouns. "How many candles are there on the birthday cake?" 1. Ordinal Numbers 0. Regular Forms: Most ordinal numbers are formed by adding "-th" to the corresponding cardinal number. For example, "four - fourth", "six - sixth", "seventeen - seventeenth", "twenty - twentieth". 0. Irregular Forms: "1st" (first), "2nd" (second), "3rd" (third), "5th" (fifth), "8th" (eighth), "9th" (ninth), "12th" (twelfth). 0. Usage in Dates: When expressing dates, we use ordinal numbers. The format is usually "month + the + ordinal number + (of + year)". For example, "March the 8th, 2025". 2. Sentence Structures of Special Interrogative Sentences 0. With Be Verbs: "Special interrogative word + be + subject + other elements?". For example, "When is your birthday?" where "is" is the be verb, "your birthday" is the subject. 0. With Other Verbs in Present Simple Tense: "Special interrogative word + do/does + subject + verb (in base form) + other elements?". For example, "What do you want for your birthday?" Here, for the third - person singular subject (he/she/it), we use "does", like "What does she like to eat on her birthday?". 教学过程 I. Lead - in (3 - 5 minutes) 1. Greet the students with a warm smile and start by showing them a short, engaging video of a birthday party. In the video, people are singing "Happy Birthday", blowing out candles, and opening presents. After the video, ask students some simple questions like "What did you see in the video? Who looks the happiest at the birthday party?" This helps to quickly capture their attention and set a lively tone for the class. 1. Then, bring up the topic of birthdays and grammar. Say, "We all love birthdays, but do you know that there are special grammar rules when we talk about birthdays? Today, we are going to explore some important grammar points that will help us talk about birthdays even better!" This smoothly leads into the grammar - focused content of the class. II. Grammar Presentation (10 - 12 minutes) 1. Special Interrogative Words (5 - 6 minutes) a. Write the special interrogative words "what", "when", "where", "who", "why", "how", "how old", "how much", and "how many" on the blackboard. Read each word aloud clearly, and ask students to repeat after you. b. Explain the meaning and usage of each word with simple, birthday - related examples. For "what", say, "We use 'what' when we want to know about things. For example, 'What do you usually do on your birthday?' Maybe you eat a big cake or play games." For "when", write "When is your birthday?" on the blackboard and explain, "We use 'when' to ask about the time. It could be the date of your birthday, like 'My birthday is on June 15th'." c. Use pictures or flashcards to illustrate the usage. For "where", show a picture of a birthday party at a park and ask, "Where is the birthday party? It's at the park. So we can ask, 'Where do you have your birthday party?'" 2. Ordinal Numbers (5 - 6 minutes) a. Present the ordinal numbers from 1st to 31st on the blackboard or using flashcards. Point out the formation rules. Explain that most ordinal numbers are formed by adding "-th" to the corresponding cardinal number, but there are irregular ones like "1st (first)", "2nd (second)", "3rd (third)", "5th (fifth)", "8th (eighth)", "9th (ninth)", and "12th (twelfth)". b. Use birthday - date examples to show how ordinal numbers are used. Write "My birthday is on the 10th of July." on the blackboard and read it aloud, emphasizing the "10th". Then, ask students to come up with their own birthday dates using ordinal numbers and share them with the class. III. Practice Activities (10 - 12 minutes) 1. Question - Answer Practice (5 - 6 minutes) a. Divide students into pairs. Give each pair a set of cards. On one set of cards, write various special interrogative questions related to birthdays, such as "How old are you?", "When is your friend's birthday?", "What do you want for your birthday?", "How many candles are on your birthday cake?" On the other set of cards, write corresponding answers. b. In pairs, students take turns to pick a question card and find the matching answer card. They should read the question and answer aloud to each other. Walk around the classroom to listen to their conversations and offer help if they make mistakes in using the interrogative words or ordinal numbers. 2. Date - Writing Practice (5 - 6 minutes) a. Write a series of birthdays on the blackboard in words, like "The birthday of the famous writer is on the fifth of April." or "The little girl's birthday is on the twenty - first of December." b. Ask students to write these dates in numerical form in their notebooks. After they finish, check the answers with the class. This helps students practice using ordinal numbers in a writing context. IV. Group Work and Extension (5 - 7 minutes) 1. Group Activity (3 - 4 minutes) a. Divide students into groups of four or five. Each group is given a task to create a short dialogue about planning a birthday party. They need to use at least three different special interrogative words and ordinal numbers in their dialogue. b. Encourage group members to discuss and write down their dialogues. For example, they might start with "When is the birthday party going to be?" and answer, "It's on the 8th of September." Then, they could ask, "How many people are we going to invite?" c. Select one or two groups to come to the front of the class and act out their dialogues. The rest of the students listen carefully and can ask questions or give feedback after the performance. 2. Summary and Extension (2 - 3 minutes) a. Summarize the key grammar points of this class, including the usage of special interrogative words and ordinal numbers. Write the important rules and examples on the blackboard again for students to review. b. As an extension, encourage students to find out the birthdays of their favorite celebrities and write a short paragraph using the grammar they learned, including questions like "When was [celebrity's name] born?" and statements with ordinal numbers for the date. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
