Unit 1 Music E Music taste (Project)教学设计 2024-2025学年沪教版（五四学制）英语七年级下册

Unit 1 Music-E Music taste (Project) This project in Unit 1 Music focuses on students' music taste. It combines language learning with the exploration of different musical styles. Students will first learn about various music genres such as pop, classical, rock, and jazz through listening, reading, and discussion. They will then conduct a survey among their classmates about music preferences. Finally, they are required to present the survey results in the form of a report, using the English language they have learned to describe and analyze the data. This project aims to not only improve students' English language skills but also enhance their understanding and appreciation of music diversity. 教学目标 Students will be able to master the vocabulary related to music genres, such as "pop music", "classical music", "rock music", "jazz music", "folk music", etc. They can learn and use sentence patterns for expressing preferences, such as "I like... best", "My favorite music is...", "I prefer... to...", etc. Understand how to organize and present data in a survey report, including the use of simple graphs (bar charts, pie charts) to show the distribution of music preferences. 教学重难点 A. Key Points The vocabulary and sentence patterns related to music taste expression. The process of conducting a survey, including designing questions, collecting data, and organizing data. Presenting the survey results clearly and accurately in English, using appropriate language and simple graphs. B. Difficult Points How to guide students to use the learned language to analyze the survey results deeply, rather than just presenting the data simply. Helping students overcome shyness and actively participate in group discussions and class presentations. Teaching students to choose the most suitable way to present data according to the characteristics of the survey results, such as when to use a bar chart or a pie chart. Vocabulary Music genres: pop music, classical music, rock music, jazz music, folk music, country music, electronic music, hip - hop music Related words: musician, instrument (guitar, piano, violin, drums, etc.), concert, melody, rhythm Sentence Patterns Expressing preferences: I like pop music best because it is lively and easy to sing along with. My favorite music is classical music. It makes me feel calm. I prefer rock music to jazz music. Rock music is more energetic. Asking about preferences: What kind of music do you like? Do you like listening to jazz? Which do you prefer, pop or classical? Survey - related knowledge Designing survey questions: The questions should be clear, easy to answer, and relevant to the topic of music taste. For example, "What is your favorite music genre?", "How often do you listen to music?", etc. Collecting data: Students can use methods like questionnaires, face - to - face interviews, or online surveys to collect data from their classmates. Organizing data: They can use tables to record the data first, and then convert it into graphs for a more intuitive display. 教学过程 A. Warming - up (5 minutes) Play short clips of different music genres (pop, classical, rock, jazz) for students to listen to. After each clip, ask students to raise their hands to guess the music genre. This activity can quickly arouse students' interest and lead them into the topic of music. B. Pre - project (10 minutes) Vocabulary teaching Present the new vocabulary about music genres and related words on the PPT. Teach students the pronunciation and meaning of each word. For example, when teaching "classical music", show some pictures of famous classical musicians like Beethoven and Mozart, and play a short piece of classical music to help students understand better. Let students read the words aloud several times to practice pronunciation. Sentence pattern practice Write some sentence patterns for expressing preferences on the blackboard. Explain the usage and meaning of each pattern. Then, ask students to make sentences using the new vocabulary and sentence patterns. Invite several students to share their sentences with the class. C. While - project (20 minutes) Grouping Divide students into groups of 4 - 5. Each group is responsible for conducting a survey about music taste among their classmates. Designing the survey Guide each group to design their survey questions. Remind them to make the questions clear and easy to answer. For example, "What is your favorite music genre? A. Pop B. Classical C. Rock D. Jazz E. Others (please specify)". After the groups finish designing the questions, each group presents their questions to the class. The whole class discusses and gives suggestions for improvement. Conducting the survey Each group distributes their questionnaires to other classmates. They can also conduct face - to - face interviews if necessary. Students should be polite and patient when collecting data. While the survey is going on, the teacher walks around the classroom to provide guidance and help if students encounter problems. D. Post - project (10 minutes) Data organization and analysis After collecting the data, each group returns to their seats to organize the data. They can use a table to record the number of people who choose each option for each question. Then, guide students to analyze the data. For example, ask them to find out which music genre is the most popular in the class, and why they think so. Presentation preparation Each group is required to make a simple presentation about their survey results. They can use simple graphs (bar charts or pie charts) to show the data more clearly. They should also use the English language they have learned to describe and analyze the results in their presentation. Give students a few minutes to prepare their presentations. The teacher can provide some templates or examples on the PPT to help them. E. Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary Invite one or two groups to present their survey results to the class. After the presentation, the teacher gives a brief summary of the whole class's music taste, emphasizing the key points of language use and data presentation. Review the new vocabulary and sentence patterns about music taste with the students. Homework Ask students to write a short passage at home about their own music taste, using at least 5 sentences. They should also draw a simple bar chart to show their music listening frequency in a week (how many times they listen to different music genres). Each group is required to complete their survey report neatly and hand it in next class. The report should include the survey questions, data collection methods, data presentation (graphs), and analysis of the results. 教学反思 Positive aspects The warming - up activity using music clips effectively attracted students' attention and made them actively involved in the class from the beginning. It successfully set a good atmosphere for the following teaching. The group - work mode in the project - based learning process cultivated students' cooperation ability. Students in each group had clear division of labor, such as question designers, data collectors, and presenters. They communicated and coordinated with each other, which improved their teamwork spirit. Through the process of designing surveys, collecting data, and presenting results, students had the opportunity to practice English in a real - life - like situation. Their language application ability was enhanced, especially in speaking and writing when expressing music preferences and analyzing data. Areas for improvement Some students were still a bit shy when conducting face - to - face interviews during the survey. In the future, more training on communication skills and confidence - building should be provided before similar activities. When analyzing the survey results, some students had difficulty in using English to express their in - depth thoughts. Teachers need to give more guidance on how to use appropriate words and sentence structures to analyze data, such as using causal conjunctions to explain why a certain music genre is popular. In the time management of the teaching process, the while - project part might take a bit longer than expected. Next time, more specific time limits should be set for each step in group work to ensure the smooth progress of the whole class. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
