Unit 5 Sports and sportsmanship C Grammaring 教学设计 2024-2025学年沪外教版（2024）七年级英语下册

Unit 5 Sports and sportsmanship-C Grammaring This part of Unit 5 focuses on grammar learning related to sports. It mainly includes the review and in - depth study of some key grammar points such as the use of prepositions in expressing sports - related activities, the correct forms of verbs when talking about sports events, and the application of simple present tense and present continuous tense in sports descriptions. Through various exercises and examples, students will strengthen their understanding and practical use of these grammar items in the context of sports. 教学目标 1. Knowledge Aims Students will be able to master the key grammar points related to sports, including the correct use of prepositions (e.g., in, on, at for different sports fields or events), verb forms (e.g., base form, - ing form in sports - related expressions), and the usage differences between simple present tense and present continuous tense in sports contexts. Students can remember a series of sports - related vocabulary and phrases associated with the grammar learning, such as “play football on the playground”, “go swimming in the pool”, etc. 2. Ability Aims Students can use the learned grammar knowledge accurately to describe sports events, their own sports experiences, and preferences. For example, they can write a short passage about their favorite sports using correct grammar structures. Students are able to distinguish and choose the appropriate grammar forms in different sports - related language situations, which improves their language discrimination and application ability. 3. Emotional Aims Stimulate students' interest in learning English grammar through the theme of sports, making them more willing to actively participate in grammar - learning activities. Cultivate students' awareness of cooperation and competition in group grammar - practicing activities, and enhance their sense of sportsmanship at the same time. 教学重难点 1. Key Points The correct use of prepositions to indicate sports locations and activities. For example, “in” is used for “in the gym”, “on” for “on the basketball court”, and “at” for “at the sports meeting”. The proper use of verb forms in sports expressions. For instance, we say “play + ball games” (play football, play basketball), and “go + - ing” for some sports like “go skiing”, “go cycling”. Understanding the differences in meaning and usage between simple present tense and present continuous tense when describing sports. Simple present tense is often used to express regular sports activities or general facts about sports, while present continuous tense is used to describe sports activities happening at the moment. 2. Difficult Points Helping students accurately distinguish and use the appropriate prepositions, as there are some exceptions and nuances in their usage. For example, we say “at school” but “in the school playground”. Making students understand the context - based usage of simple present tense and present continuous tense in sports. Sometimes, the boundary between them may be blurred for students, especially when dealing with some ambiguous situations like describing a sports event that has both regular and ongoing aspects. 1. Prepositions In: used for enclosed spaces or large areas related to sports. e.g., in the swimming pool, in the gym, in the stadium On: used for flat surfaces or specific sports fields. e.g., on the tennis court, on the ice rink, on the football field At: used for specific points or events. e.g., at the sports meeting, at the basketball game, at the starting line 2. Verb Forms Play + ball games: play football, play volleyball, play baseball Go + - ing: go running, go hiking, go skating Do + exercises or sports with “exercise”: do morning exercises, do eye exercises, do physical exercise 3. Tense Usage Simple Present Tense: Expresses regular sports activities. e.g., I play basketball every Saturday. States general facts about sports. e.g., Football is a very popular sport in the world. Present Continuous Tense: Describes sports activities happening at the moment. e.g., Look! They are playing badminton on the court. 教学过程 1. Warming - up (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual. Show some pictures of different sports on the PPT, such as football, basketball, swimming, and running. Ask students to name the sports they see as quickly as possible. T: “Boys and girls, look at the pictures on the screen. What sports can you see? Raise your hands and tell me.” Encourage students to actively participate in this activity, and give simple praise like “Good job!” or “Well done!” 2. Lead - in (5 minutes) After the warming - up, start a short conversation with students about their favorite sports. T: “I know many of you like sports. So, can you tell me what your favorite sport is? And why do you like it?” Invite several students to answer. Then, say: “Today, we are going to learn some important grammar knowledge that can help us better describe our favorite sports and sports events.” 3. Presentation (12 minutes) Prepositions Show a picture of a school with different sports areas (a playground, a gym, a swimming pool, etc.) on the PPT. Point to each area and say sentences like “We play football on the playground. We do exercise in the gym. We swim in the swimming pool.” Write these sentences on the blackboard. Explain the usage rules of “in”, “on”, and “at” in sports - related locations as mentioned in the knowledge list. Let students read the sentences on the blackboard several times to get familiar with the prepositions. Do a simple drill. Show some incomplete sentences on the PPT, such as “We play basketball ___ the court.” and ask students to fill in the blanks with the correct prepositions. Check the answers together. Verb Forms Use the PPT to show some action pictures of different sports. For each picture, say a sentence with the correct verb form, like “He is playing football.” or “She goes running every morning.” Write these sentences on the blackboard. Summarize the rules of “play + ball games”, “go + - ing”, and “do + exercises” as in the knowledge list. Let students make their own sentences using these verb forms, and ask some of them to share their sentences with the class. Tense Usage Write two sentences on the blackboard: “I play football every Sunday.” and “I am playing football now.” Explain the differences in meaning and usage between simple present tense and present continuous tense in sports contexts. Use some more examples to illustrate, such as “My father watches basketball games on TV every weekend.” (simple present tense for a regular activity) and “My brother is watching a basketball game on TV now.” (present continuous tense for an ongoing activity). Show some sentences on the PPT and ask students to identify whether they should use simple present tense or present continuous tense to complete them. 4. Practice (15 minutes) Group Work Divide the students into groups of four. Give each group a set of cards with different sports - related words and phrases (including sports names, prepositions, verb forms, and time expressions). The task for each group is to make as many correct sentences as possible using these cards within 5 minutes. For example, if a group has cards with “football”, “play”, “on the playground”, and “every Saturday”, they can make the sentence “We play football on the playground every Saturday.” Walk around the classroom to monitor the group work, offer help if necessary, and encourage students to communicate in English within the group. Class Competition After the group work, hold a class competition. Prepare some more difficult sentences on the PPT, which need students to correct grammar mistakes, fill in blanks with the correct grammar forms, or choose the right options. Divide the class into two big groups. Each group takes turns to answer the questions on the PPT. For each correct answer, the group gets one point. The group with more points at the end wins. During the competition, cheer for the students and make the atmosphere more active. 5. Summary (5 minutes) Recap the key grammar points learned in this class, including the use of prepositions, verb forms, and tense usage in sports - related contexts. Ask students to recall and summarize with you. T: “Class, let's review what we have learned today. Who can tell me the rules of using prepositions like ‘in’, ‘on’, and ‘at’ in sports locations?” Invite students to answer, and then summarize again. Do the same for verb forms and tense usage. Emphasize the importance of these grammar points in expressing sports - related ideas accurately. 6. Homework (3 minutes) Ask students to write a short passage (about 80 - 100 words) about their weekend sports activities. They should use at least three grammar points learned in this class, such as correct prepositions, verb forms, and tenses. T: “For your homework today, I want you to write about your weekend sports activities. Remember to use the grammar knowledge we learned in class. You can start like this: ‘I had a great weekend with lots of sports activities...’” Tell students to hand in their homework next class. 教学反思 After this class, I need to reflect on several aspects. In terms of teaching methods, the combination of visual aids (PPT pictures) and practical examples seems to be effective in helping students understand the grammar points. However, during the group work, some students were a bit shy to communicate in English, which may affect their full participation. In the future, I should create a more relaxed and encouraging atmosphere to boost their confidence in speaking English. Regarding the teaching content, the key and difficult points were generally covered, but some students still had trouble distinguishing the usage of simple present tense and present continuous tense in complex sports - related situations. Maybe more in - depth and diverse exercises are needed to strengthen this part. In the class competition, the students showed great enthusiasm, but the time - control was a bit off. Next time, I will set a stricter time limit for each question to ensure the smooth progress of the competition. Overall, through this reflection, I will adjust my teaching strategies to make the grammar class more efficient and engaging for 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 $
