Warming - up (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual. Show some pictures of school scenes, such as classrooms, playgrounds, libraries, etc. on the PPT. Ask students to quickly name the places they see in English. For example: T: Look at this picture. What's this? Ss: Classroom. T: Very good. And this one? Ss: Playground. This activity can quickly draw students' attention to the topic of school and arouse their interest. B. Presentation (15 minutes) Vocabulary Teaching Present new words and phrases related to school life one by one on the PPT. For each word or phrase, show relevant pictures and give examples in sentences. For "arrive at school", show a picture of students entering the school gate and say, "Look, the students are arriving at school. They arrive at school at 7:30 a.m. every day." Then ask some students to imitate the sentence with their own arrival time. For "class teacher", show a picture of a teacher teaching in the classroom and say, "This is our class teacher, Miss Yang. She is very friendly." Let students describe their class teachers using this sentence pattern. For words with difficult pronunciation like "deskmate", teach the pronunciation carefully. First, pronounce it slowly /ˈdeskmeɪt/, and then let students repeat several times. Divide the word into two parts "desk" and "mate" to help students remember the pronunciation and meaning. Pronunciation Practice Play the recording of the sounds /k/, /g/, /f/, /v/, /aɪ/, /ɪ/, /əʊ/, /ɒ/ on the PPT. Let students listen carefully and imitate the pronunciation. Write some words containing these sounds on the blackboard, such as "cake", "go", "five", "very", "like", "is", "go", "box". Ask students to read these words aloud, and the teacher corrects their pronunciation in time. Do a pronunciation game. The teacher says a sound, and students quickly find a word with that sound in their textbooks or think of one themselves and say it out. For example, if the teacher says /f/, students can say "fish", "family", etc. C. Reading (10 minutes) Pre - reading Show the picture diary of Chen Xinxin on the PPT and ask students some simple questions to predict the content, such as "What can you see in this picture? Do you think it's a picture of a new school? Why?" While - reading Let students read the picture diary quickly and answer some general questions on the PPT, such as "What time does Chen Xinxin arrive at school? How many clubs are there?" Then ask students to read the diary carefully again and complete some detailed exercises, like filling in the blanks according to the text. For example, "Chen Xinxin likes Miss Yang because she is ______." Post - reading Divide students into pairs. Let them talk about what they think of Chen Xinxin's school life according to the diary. Encourage them to use the learned vocabulary and sentence patterns, such as "There are many different clubs. She can do a lot of interesting things after school." D. Listening (5 minutes) Pre - listening Introduce the context of the listening material. Say, "Now we will listen to a student talking about his school day. Before listening, think about what aspects of school day he may talk about, like when he arrives at school, what subjects he has, etc." While - listening Play the recording for the first time. Let students listen and answer a general question, such as "What time does the student start to have lessons?" Play the recording for the second time. Students listen carefully and complete some detailed information, like filling in a table about the student's school schedule. Post - listening Check the answers with the whole class. Then choose some students to retell the student's school day based on the information they got from listening. E. Speaking (5 minutes) Group Work Divide students into groups of four. Each group member needs to talk about their own school day, including the time they arrive at school, start school, have lunch, finish school, and what they do after school. Provide some sentence patterns on the PPT to help them, such as "I arrive at school at... o'clock. We start school at... Our lessons finish at... After school, I...". Encourage students to ask each other questions, for example, "What's your favorite subject? Why do you like it?" Report Ask each group to choose a representative to report their group members' school days to the whole class. The representative can say, "In our group, Tom arrives at school at 8 o'clock. He likes PE class because he can play basketball...". F. Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary Review the new words, phrases, sentence patterns, and pronunciation learned in this class with the students. Write the key points on the blackboard and let students copy them in their notebooks. Summarize students' performance in class, praise those who actively participated and did well, and encourage those who need improvement. Homework Ask students to write a short passage about their school day, using at least five sentences. They should include the time of important activities in school and their feelings about school life. Let students listen to the recording of new words and phrases related to school life for 10 - 15 minutes at home to consolidate their pronunciation. 教学反思 After this class, I found that most students showed great interest in the topic of school life, which made them actively participate in class activities. The use of pictures, recordings, and group work effectively attracted students' attention and improved their learning enthusiasm. However, there are still some problems. Some students with weak foundation had difficulty in mastering the pronunciation of some new words and sounds, especially the distinction between /f/ and /v/. In future classes, I will design more targeted pronunciation exercises for these students. Also, during the speaking activity, some students were a bit shy to express themselves. I should create a more relaxed and supportive atmosphere in class to encourage them to speak more bravely. Moreover, in the reading and listening parts, a few students had trouble catching key information quickly. I need to teach them some reading and listening strategies, such as skimming and scanning, to improve their information - obtaining ability. Overall, I will adjust my teaching methods according to students' performance to make the following classes more effective. 2 / 37 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
