Unit 4 Interests and Abilities-Topic Talk This unit focuses on the theme of "Interests and Abilities", aiming to help students express their own interests and abilities as well as understand those of others. The Topic Talk in this unit presents a dialogue between Anna and John. In the conversation, John introduces the hobbies of his four best friends in response to Anna's questions. Tony likes dancing, Sue loves running, Lyn is fond of music, and Peter is crazy about painting. Through this dialogue, students are expected to learn vocabulary and expressions related to interests and abilities and master the usage of the simple present tense to describe habitual actions and general facts. 教学目标 1. Language Competence Students will be able to use relevant vocabulary and phrases, such as "interests", "abilities", "hobbies", "like doing", "enjoy doing", "be good at", etc., to accurately describe personal interests and abilities. They can correctly use the simple present tense to talk about their own and others' hobbies and abilities, and form affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences. Improve students' listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills through various activities related to the topic of interests and abilities. 2. Learning Ability Cultivate students' ability to observe, compare, and summarize language usage by analyzing examples of expressing interests and abilities. Develop students' autonomous learning ability, such as learning new words and phrases independently through context and dictionaries, and arranging their own learning plans for practicing language expressions about interests and abilities. Promote students' cooperation learning ability. They can actively participate in group discussions and role - playing activities, communicate and share with group members, and jointly complete learning tasks. 3. Cultural Awareness Enable students to understand that different cultures have different attitudes and expressions towards interests and abilities. For example, in some Western cultures, people may be more open and direct in expressing their hobbies, while in some Eastern cultures, they may be more implicit. Let students respect and appreciate cultural differences in interests and abilities, and enhance their cross - cultural communication awareness. 4. Thinking Quality Through discussing and sharing their own interests and abilities, students can think actively, clarify their own preferences and advantages, and improve their self - awareness. In the process of listening to others' introductions of interests and abilities, students can think critically, ask questions, and make reasonable evaluations. Encourage students to think innovatively. For example, when imagining future jobs based on their interests and abilities, they can come up with creative ideas. 教学重难点 1. Teaching Key Points Mastery of vocabulary and phrases related to interests and abilities, such as "dancing", "running", "music", "painting", "like", "enjoy", "be good at", etc. Correct application of the simple present tense in describing interests and abilities. For example, "He likes playing basketball." "She is good at singing." Being able to use English to communicate about personal interests and abilities in real - life situations, such as introducing oneself in an interview or making friends. 2. Teaching Difficult Points Understanding and correctly using the third - person singular form in the simple present tense, for example, adding "-s" or "-es" to the verb in the third - person singular subject, like "He plays football every day." "She watches TV in the evening." Using appropriate words and expressions to accurately describe different levels of interests and abilities, such as "be crazy about", "be really into", "be fairly good at", etc. Overcoming shyness and lack of confidence, and being able to communicate fluently and actively about interests and abilities in group activities and class presentations. 1.

Grammar Simple Present Tense: Affirmative form: Subject + verb (base form or third - person singular form) + other elements. For example, "I like reading books." "He plays the piano every day." Negative form: Subject + don't/doesn't + verb (base form) + other elements. For example, "I don't like swimming." "She doesn't play basketball." Interrogative form: Do/Does + subject + verb (base form) + other elements? For example, "Do you like music?" "Does he like dancing?" 教学过程 1. Lead - in (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual and then start the class with an interesting question: "If you could have a superpower, what would it be and why?" Let several students answer the question. This question can arouse students' enthusiasm and make them think about their wishes and interests. Then show some pictures on the PPT, including pictures of people dancing, running, playing musical instruments, painting, etc. Ask students: "What are these people doing? Do you like these activities?" Guide students to express their opinions briefly. 2. Presentation (15 minutes) First, play the recording of the dialogue between Anna and John for the students to listen. After listening, ask some simple questions to check their understanding, such as "How many friends of John are mentioned in the dialogue?" "What does Tony like?" Then present the new words and phrases related to interests and abilities on the PPT, explain their meanings and pronunciations. For example, when teaching "dancing", show a short video of people dancing to help students have a more vivid understanding. Drill the words and phrases with students, let them read aloud several times. Next, focus on the grammar - the simple present tense. Use some simple examples on the PPT to explain the formation and usage of the simple present tense in expressing interests and abilities. For example: "I like singing. Singing makes me happy." (Explain that the simple present tense is used to describe a habitual action or a general fact, and here "like" is in the base form because the subject is "I".) "He likes playing football. He plays football every Saturday." (Emphasize that when the subject is the third - person singular "he", the verb "like" changes to "likes", and "play" also changes to "plays".) Let students do some simple oral exercises. Give them some subjects and activities, and ask them to make sentences using the simple present tense, such as "She / draw", "They / run". 3. Practice (15 minutes) Group Activity 1: Interview Divide the students into groups of four. In each group, students take turns to interview others about their interests and abilities. They can use the questions and expressions they have just learned, such as "What are your hobbies?" "Do you like...?" "Are you good at...?" Each student should fill in a simple form about the information of their group members. After the interview, ask some groups to report the results to the whole class. For example, "In our group, Tom likes playing basketball, and he is good at it. Lucy likes reading books, and she is interested in history books." Group Activity 2: Role - play Provide some situations on the PPT, such as two students meeting at a new school club, or a teacher interviewing students about their hobbies for a school activity. Each group chooses one situation to do a role - play. They need to create a short dialogue using the vocabulary and grammar they have learned. Invite several groups to perform their role - plays in front of the class. After each performance, let other students give some comments, such as praising good expressions or pointing out grammar mistakes. 4. Consolidation (5 minutes) Show some sentences on the PPT with blanks. The sentences are related to interests and abilities and need to be filled with the correct forms of verbs or appropriate words. For example: He ____ (like) playing computer games. My sister is good at ____ (dance). I am interested in ____ (paint) because it is ____ (relax). Let students think independently and then call some students to come to the blackboard to fill in the blanks. Check the answers together and explain the reasons for each blank. 5. Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary Summarize the key points of this class with the students, including important vocabulary and phrases, the usage of the simple present tense in expressing interests and abilities. Ask students to recall the new knowledge they have learned in this class. Emphasize the importance of expressing interests and abilities in English, and encourage students to use English to communicate about this topic in their daily lives. Homework Ask students to write a short passage about their own interests and abilities, at least 5 sentences. They should use the words and grammar learned in this class. Let students prepare a short speech about their dream jobs based on their interests and abilities for the next class. They can collect some information about their dream jobs, such as job descriptions and required abilities. 教学反思 After teaching this class, I have the following reflections: Positive Aspects The lead - in part was effective in attracting students' attention. The question about superpowers and the pictures of various activities successfully aroused students' interest and made them actively participate in the initial discussion. In the presentation of new knowledge, the combination of listening to the dialogue, learning new words and phrases, and explaining grammar was relatively smooth. The use of visual aids like videos and pictures helped students better understand new vocabulary. The group activities provided students with sufficient opportunities to practice speaking. Most students actively participated in the interview and role - play activities, which improved their oral English ability and cooperation skills. Areas for Improvement In the grammar teaching part, although I used examples to explain the simple present tense, some students still had difficulties in using the third - person singular form correctly. In the future, more targeted exercises and more vivid explanations are needed. For example, I can make a short animation to show the change of verb forms in different subjects. During the group activities, some students were too shy to speak actively. In the future, I should create a more relaxed and supportive atmosphere, and encourage these students more. Maybe I can start with some easier tasks for them to build up their confidence. The time control in the practice part can be improved. Some groups did not have enough time to fully present their role - plays. In the next class, I will more accurately estimate the time required for each activity and make appropriate adjustments. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
