Unit 5 A healthy lifestyle Assessment 教学设计 2025-2026学年译林版（2024）七年级英语上册

Unit 5 A healthy lifestyle-Assessment This unit focuses on the topic of a healthy lifestyle. It covers various aspects such as healthy and unhealthy foods, different types of exercises, the importance of sleep, and how to maintain a balanced lifestyle. Through reading materials, listening tasks, speaking activities, and writing exercises, students will explore and discuss the significance of leading a healthy life and learn relevant vocabulary and sentence patterns to express their opinions and ideas about healthy living. 教学目标 Students will be able to master the key vocabulary related to a healthy lifestyle, including names of different foods (both healthy and unhealthy), types of exercises, and words about sleep and daily routines. For example: "vegetable", "junk food", "exercise", "jogging", "sleep", "routine", etc. Students will learn and understand the usage of countable and uncountable nouns in the context of discussing a healthy lifestyle. They can distinguish between countable and uncountable nouns and use the correct forms of articles and quantifiers accordingly. For instance, "a few apples", "some milk", "many vegetables", "much water". Students will acquire common sentence patterns for expressing opinions, making suggestions, and comparing different lifestyles. Such as "I think...", "It's important to...", "You should...", "Compared with...". 教学重难点 Key vocabulary and sentence patterns related to a healthy lifestyle. Teachers need to ensure students can correctly pronounce, understand, and use these words and patterns in different situations. The understanding and application of countable and uncountable nouns. Teachers should design various activities to help students distinguish and use them accurately. Developing students' comprehensive language skills, especially their speaking and writing abilities in expressing ideas about a healthy lifestyle. A. Vocabulary Food - related Vocabulary Healthy Foods: "vegetable" (e.g., "tomato", "cabbage", "carrot"), "fruit" (e.g., "apple", "banana", "orange"), "grain" (e.g., "rice", "wheat", "oat"), "protein - rich foods" (e.g., "fish", "chicken", "bean", "tofu") Unhealthy Foods: "junk food" (e.g., "hamburger", "pizza", "French fries"), "sweet food" (e.g., "candy", "ice - cream", "cake"), "fried food" Exercise - related Vocabulary "exercise" (general term), "jogging", "running", "swimming", "cycling", "playing basketball/football/tennis", "doing yoga", "doing push - ups/sit - ups" Sleep and Daily Routine - related Vocabulary "sleep", "go to bed", "get up", "routine", "daily activities" (e.g., "brush teeth", "wash face", "have breakfast/lunch/dinner") B. Grammar Countable and Uncountable Nouns Countable Nouns: Have singular and plural forms. For example, "an apple" - "apples", "a book" - "books". We use "a/an" in the singular form and "many", "a few", "several" in the plural form. Uncountable Nouns: Do not have a plural form in the usual sense. For example, "water", "milk", "bread", "rice". We use "some", "any", "much", "a little" with uncountable nouns. Sentence Patterns Expressing Opinions: "I think...", "In my opinion...", "As far as I'm concerned..." Making Suggestions: "You should...", "It's a good idea to...", "Why not...?" Comparing: "Compared with...", "A is healthier/more important than B" 教学过程 A. Lead - in (5 minutes) Greet the students and start a simple conversation. For example, "How are you today? Did you have a good breakfast? What did you eat?" Show some pictures on the PPT, including pictures of healthy foods (like fresh fruits and vegetables), unhealthy foods (such as hamburgers and fried chicken), people doing exercises (jogging, swimming), and people sleeping. Ask students to look at the pictures and discuss in pairs which ones show a healthy lifestyle and which ones do not. Then invite some pairs to share their opinions with the whole class. B. Knowledge Presentation (10 minutes) Vocabulary Teaching Present the new vocabulary related to a healthy lifestyle on the PPT one by one. Pronounce each word clearly and ask students to repeat after you several times. For example, when presenting "vegetable", say "V - E - G - E - T - A - B - L - E, vegetable". Use pictures or real objects (if possible) to help students understand the meaning of the words. For instance, show a picture of a carrot when teaching "carrot". Divide the students into groups and give each group a set of word cards with the new vocabulary. Ask them to sort the cards into categories of healthy foods, unhealthy foods, exercises, and sleep/daily routine words. Then check the answers together. Grammar Teaching - Countable and Uncountable Nouns Use some simple examples on the PPT to introduce the concept of countable and uncountable nouns. For example, show "an apple" and "some water", and explain that "apple" is a countable noun and we can count how many apples there are, while "water" is an uncountable noun and we can't count it in the same way. List more examples of countable and uncountable nouns on the PPT and ask students to tell which are countable and which are uncountable. Then teach them how to use articles and quantifiers with these two types of nouns. For example, "a/an" for singular countable nouns, "many/a few" for plural countable nouns, and "some/any/much/a little" for uncountable nouns. C. Practice (15 minutes) Vocabulary Practice Conduct a vocabulary game called "What's Missing?". Show a group of pictures of healthy and unhealthy foods on the PPT for about 30 seconds. Then hide one picture and ask students to tell which picture is missing and what the word for that picture is. Have a "Vocabulary Relay". Divide the class into several groups. The first student in each group has to say a word related to a healthy lifestyle. Then the next student in the group has to say a different word starting with the last letter of the previous word. For example, if the first student says "apple", the second student can say "exercise". The group that can keep the relay going the longest wins. Grammar Practice - Countable and Uncountable Nouns Give students a worksheet with sentences containing blanks. They need to fill in the blanks with the correct articles or quantifiers according to whether the nouns are countable or uncountable. For example, "I have ____ (a/an/some) apple. There is ____ (many/much/a little) water in the glass." Do a group activity. Provide each group with some cards with countable and uncountable nouns written on them. One student in the group picks a card and makes a sentence using the noun with the correct article or quantifier. The other group members check if the sentence is correct. D. Reading and Comprehension (10 minutes) Hand out a short passage about a healthy lifestyle to the students. The passage can include information about a person's daily diet, exercise routine, and sleep habits. Before reading, ask students to skim the passage quickly to get the main idea. Then ask them some general questions, such as "What is the passage mainly about?" Next, ask students to read the passage carefully and answer some detailed questions on the worksheet. The questions can be about specific information in the passage, like "What does the person usually have for breakfast?", "How often does he/she exercise?", etc. After students finish answering the questions, check the answers together and ask some students to explain how they found the answers in the passage. This can help students improve their reading skills of scanning for specific information. E. Summary and Homework Assignment (5 minutes) Summary Summarize the key points of this class with the students, including the new vocabulary related to a healthy lifestyle, the usage of countable and uncountable nouns, and the main content of the reading passage. Ask students to share what they have learned in this class. Encourage them to think about how they can apply what they have learned to their own lives. Homework Assignment Ask students to write a short passage about their own healthy lifestyle. They need to include information about their diet, exercise, and sleep habits. They should use at least 5 new words and 3 sentence patterns learned in this class. Ask students to search for more information about a healthy lifestyle, such as some healthy recipes or new types of exercises, and be ready to share it in the next class. 教学反思 After teaching this unit, I found that students were quite interested in the topic of a healthy lifestyle as it is closely related to their daily lives. The lead - in activities, such as showing pictures and having simple conversations, effectively engaged students and aroused their enthusiasm. However, when teaching grammar, especially the usage of countable and uncountable nouns, some students still had difficulties in distinguishing and using them correctly. In the future, I should design more practical and interesting grammar exercises, such as creating real - life scenarios where students need to use these grammar points to communicate. During the reading and comprehension part, most students could understand the general idea of the passage, but some students had trouble finding specific information quickly. I need to provide more reading strategy guidance, like how to mark key words and phrases while reading. Regarding the speaking and writing activities, some students were a bit shy to express their opinions in public. I should create a more relaxed and supportive classroom atmosphere to encourage them to speak up and write more freely. Overall, through this teaching, I realized that I need to continuously adjust my teaching methods and strategies to better meet the needs of students and help them improve their English language skills and awareness of a healthy lifestyle. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
