It aims to introduce students to vocabulary related to family members and basic sentence patterns for introducing families. The content includes a family tree of Li Mei for students to identify and fill in family members, a listening passage about Anna's family for students to extract information, and activities for students to share their own family situations. Through these materials, students will not only learn language knowledge but also enhance their understanding of family and family values. 教学目标 2.1 Language Knowledge Students will be able to master the vocabulary of family members, such as "grandparent", "grandfather (grandpa)", "grandmother (grandma)", "uncle", "aunt", "parent", "father (dad)", "mother (mum)", "husband", "wife", "daughter", "son", "brother", "sister", "cousin". Students can use sentence patterns like "Hi, I'm... I have a happy/big family. This is my..." to introduce their family members. 2.2 Language Skills Listening: Students can understand the listening passage about family introductions, extract key information such as family members' names, occupations, and relationships.

Through group discussions and pair work, students enhance their cooperative learning skills. 2.4 Affective Attitudes Students can feel the love and warmth within the family, strengthening their family values and sense of belonging. Students are encouraged to actively participate in classroom activities, enhancing their confidence in using English. 教学重难点 3.1 Teaching Key Points Mastery of family member vocabulary and related sentence patterns. Ability to extract information from listening materials about family introductions. 3.2 Teaching Difficult Points Organize language smoothly and comprehensively to introduce one's own family, including describing family members' characteristics and relationships. Deeply understand and express the emotional bond within the family in English. 教学过程 5.1 Warming - up (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual. Show some pictures of different families on the PPT, and ask students to look at the pictures and answer the question: "What do you see in the pictures?" Encourage them to express in English as much as possible. For example, some students may answer, "I see a father, a mother and a child." Then lead to the topic of today's class - family. 5.2 Pre - reading (10 minutes) Present Li Mei's family tree on the screen. First, ask students to look at the family tree and answer two simple questions: "How many people are there in Li Mei's family?" and "Can you find Li Mei in the family tree?" Then, let students complete Li Mei's family tree by using the words in the box on the screen. The words include various family member terms. After they finish, ask several students to come to the front of the classroom and point to each position on the family tree and read out the corresponding family member's name. Check the answers together and correct any mistakes. This activity helps students review and get familiar with family member vocabulary. 5.3 While - reading (15 minutes) Listening Activity Tell students that they will listen to a girl named Anna introducing her family. Before listening, show some new words or phrases that may appear in the listening material on the PPT, such as "nurse", "cook", "policeman", and briefly explain their meanings. Play the recording of Anna's family introduction for the first time. Students listen carefully and get a general idea of the content. Play the recording again. This time, students need to fill in the blanks on the handout. The blanks are related to key information in Anna's family introduction, like "My mum is a nurse, and my ______ is a cook. I have two _____, Tom and Paul. My dad has a brother. He is Uncle Alex. He is a . His wife is Kelly. They have a son, Mike. He is my _____. " After listening, ask students to check their answers with their partners first, and then check the answers in class. Reading Activity Present the text of Anna's family introduction on the PPT. Let students read it silently for a few minutes, and then ask them some detailed questions, such as "What are Anna's parents' jobs?", "How many brothers does Anna have?", "Who is Mike?", etc. Invite students to raise their hands and answer the questions. This activity helps students further understand the text and improve their reading comprehension ability. 5.4 Post - reading (10 minutes) Group Activity Divide students into groups of 4 - 5. Ask each group to draw a family tree of Anna based on the information they got from listening and reading. One student in each group is responsible for drawing on a piece of white paper, and the others help to describe the relationships and information. After they finish drawing, each group selects a representative to come to the front of the classroom and introduce Anna's family tree to the whole class, using the sentence patterns they learned, like "This is Anna's father. He is a cook. This is Anna's uncle, Uncle Alex. He is a policeman." After each group's presentation, other groups can ask questions if they have any doubts. This activity helps students internalize the language knowledge and improve their speaking and cooperative skills. Personal Sharing Ask students to take out their family photos (if they bring them). If not, they can draw a simple family tree of their own. Then, ask them to introduce their family members to their group members, just like Anna did. Encourage them to include as much information as possible, such as family members' names, jobs, and their relationships. Walk around the classroom to monitor and offer help when necessary. After group sharing, invite several students to come to the front of the classroom and introduce their families to the whole class. 5.5 Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary Summarize the key points of this class with students, including important vocabulary of family members and sentence patterns for family introduction. Review the process of filling in Li Mei's family tree, listening to and reading about Anna's family, and sharing their own families. Emphasize the importance of family and the love among family members. Homework Ask students to write a short passage about their families, using at least 5 sentences. They need to introduce their family members, including their names, occupations (if possible), and their feelings about their families. Let students teach their family members at least 3 English words about family members they learned in this class. 教学反思 In this class, through various activities such as looking at family trees, listening, reading, and sharing, students showed a high level of enthusiasm. Most students actively participated in classroom discussions and were able to master the basic vocabulary and sentence patterns related to family introductions. However, there are still some areas that need improvement. In the listening part, although students were given pre - listening guidance, some students still had difficulty in catching some key information, especially for those students with relatively weak English listening skills. In the future, more listening practice with different levels of difficulty should be provided, and some listening strategies, such as predicting before listening and taking notes while listening, should be taught. During the personal sharing activity, some students were a bit nervous when introducing their families in front of the whole class. They made some grammar mistakes and their expressions were not very fluent. In the following classes, more opportunities for public speaking should be given to help students build confidence and improve their oral English ability. The group activities were generally successful, but some groups did not cooperate very effectively. Some students dominated the discussion, while some students were relatively passive. In future group activities, it is necessary to clarify the division of labor in the group in advance and encourage every student to actively participate. Overall, this class achieved most of the teaching objectives, but continuous improvement in teaching methods and strategies is needed to better meet the learning needs of students. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
