Starter Unit 2 Keep Tidy!-Section A-Pronunciation 教学设计 2025-2026学年人教版七年级英语上册

Starter Unit 2 Keep Tidy!-Section A-Pronunciation This pronunciation lesson is from Starter Unit 2 "Keep Tidy!" in the new PEP English textbook for Grade 7 (2024 edition). It focuses on the pronunciation of the five vowel letters A, E, I, O, and U in open syllables. Through various activities such as word reading, sentence practice, and chant singing, students will explore and master the pronunciation rules of vowel letters in open syllables, laying a solid foundation for accurate word reading and pronunciation in the future. 教学目标 1. Knowledge Objectives Students can recognize open syllables and distinguish them from other types of syllables. Master the pronunciation rules of the five vowel letters A, E, I, O, and U in open syllables, and be able to accurately pronounce the corresponding vowel phonemes /e /, /i /, /a /, / /, /ju /. Be familiar with a series of words containing vowel letters in open syllables, such as "name", "be", "bike", "go", "use". 2. Ability Objectives Enable students to apply the learned pronunciation rules to quickly and accurately read new words with vowel letters in open syllables, improving their independent word - reading ability. Through reading sentences and simple dialogues, students can use the correct pronunciation of vowel letters in open syllables, enhancing their oral expression ability. 3. Emotional Objectives Cultivate students' interest in English pronunciation learning, making them more confident in speaking English. Encourage students to actively participate in classroom activities, and develop their teamwork spirit through group cooperation. 教学重难点 1. Key Points The definition and characteristics of open syllables, including absolute open syllables (ending with a single vowel letter in a stressed syllable, e.g., "hi", "no") and relative open syllables (a single vowel letter followed by a single consonant letter (except r), and then an unpronounced e, e.g., "name", "bike"). The pronunciation rules of the five vowel letters A, E, I, O, and U in open syllables, that is, they usually pronounce their own letter names: A - /e /, E - /i /, I - /a /, O - / /, U - /ju /. 2. Difficult Points Helping students accurately distinguish the pronunciation of vowel letters in open syllables from their pronunciations in other syllable structures, especially some exceptions. For example, in the word "do", although it is a stressed open syllable, the letter "o" does not pronounce its letter name / /. Guiding students to apply the learned pronunciation rules flexibly in reading new words, and overcoming the interference of mother - tongue pronunciation habits. 1. Syllable Knowledge Open syllable: Absolute open syllable: A stressed syllable that ends with a single vowel letter. For example, in the word "he", the "e" at the end makes it an absolute open syllable. Relative open syllable: Consists of a single vowel letter, followed by a single consonant letter (except r), and then an unpronounced e. For example, in the word "cake", "a" is the vowel letter, "k" is the consonant letter, and the final "e" is unpronounced, making it a relative open syllable. Closed syllable: A syllable that ends with one or more consonant letters (except r, w, y) and has only one vowel letter in the middle. For example, "map", "pen". 2. Vowel Letter Pronunciation in Open Syllables A: /e / as in "name", "face", "lake", "make", "take". E: /i / as in "be", "we", "she", "he", "me". I: /a / as in "bike", "like", "ice", "rice", "time". O: / / as in "go", "no", "so", "close", "rose". U: /ju / as in "use", "cute", "music", "student", "pupil". 教学过程 1. Warming - up (5 minutes) Greet the students as usual. Play a short English alphabet song video for students to sing along. After singing, randomly ask some students to read several letters and review the pronunciation of the alphabet. Lead - in: T: "Today, we are going to explore an interesting part of English - the pronunciation of vowel letters in different situations. First, let's think about which letters are vowel letters in the English alphabet?" Encourage students to answer and write the five vowel letters A, E, I, O, U on the blackboard. 2. Presentation (12 minutes) Introduce the concept of syllables briefly. Use simple words like "apple" (with two syllables: ap - ple) to explain that a syllable is a unit of pronunciation. Present open syllables: Write some words on the blackboard, such as "hi", "no", "name", "bike". Divide students into small groups of 4 - 5 and ask them to observe the spelling characteristics of these words. After 2 - 3 minutes, invite some groups to share their findings. Then explain the definition and two types of open syllables: absolute open syllables and relative open syllables, giving more examples for each type. Teach the pronunciation of vowel letters in open syllables: For the letter A: Write words like "name", "face" on the blackboard. Pronounce the words slowly, /ne m/, /fe s/, and ask students to listen carefully and imitate. Then explain that in open syllables, the letter A usually pronounces /e /. Let students read the words in pairs and check each other's pronunciation. Use the same method to teach the pronunciation of E, I, O, and U in open syllables. Write relevant words, pronounce them, explain the rules, and let students practice reading. For example, for E, write "be", "we", and show the pronunciation /bi /, /wi /; for I, write "bike", "like" with the pronunciation /ba k/, /la k/; for O, write "go", "no" pronounced as /g /, /n /; for U, write "use", "cute" pronounced as /ju z/, /kju t/. 3. Practice (15 minutes) Word - reading practice: Show a set of words on the PPT, including some words with vowel letters in open syllables and some in other syllable structures. For example: "make", "pen", "bike", "dog", "use", "cup". Ask students to read the words aloud one by one and classify them into two columns on the blackboard according to whether the vowel letter is in an open syllable or not. Invite other students to check the classification. Conduct a "word - reading race". Divide the class into two large groups. Show words on the PPT quickly, and the two groups take turns to read the words with vowel letters in open syllables as fast as possible. The group that reads more words correctly within a certain time wins. Sentence - reading practice: Write some simple sentences on the blackboard, such as "He is a cute student.", "My bike is new.", "She likes to go to the park." Ask students to read the sentences carefully, paying attention to the pronunciation of vowel letters in open syllables. Then ask several students to read the sentences aloud, and correct their pronunciation if necessary. Let students make their own sentences using words with vowel letters in open syllables. They can write the sentences in their notebooks and then share them with their partners. Each pair selects one or two good sentences to share with the whole class. 4. Production (8 minutes) Chant activity: Present a chant on the PPT: A for apple, a - a - /e /, Name, name, /ne m/. E for elephant, e - e - /i /, He, he, /hi /. I for igloo, i - i - /a /, Bike, bike, /ba k/. O for octopus, o - o - / /, Go, go, /g /. U for umbrella, u - u - /ju /, Use, use, /ju z/. Read the chant aloud first, and then let students follow and read several times. Finally, play some lively music, and ask students to read the chant rhythmically along with the music. They can also add some simple actions. Group work: Divide students into groups of 4 - 5. Each group is required to create a short story or a dialogue using at least 5 words with vowel letters in open syllables. They can write it down on a piece of paper and then practice reading it. After 5 - 6 minutes, invite some groups to come to the front of the class and perform their stories or dialogues. The rest of the students listen carefully and evaluate their pronunciation and creativity. 5. Summary and Homework (5 minutes) Summary: Review the key points of this class with students, including the concept of open syllables, the pronunciation rules of vowel letters A, E, I, O, and U in open syllables. Ask students to share what they have learned in this class. Homework: Ask students to find at least 10 new words with vowel letters in open syllables in their English books or dictionaries, write them down, and mark the pronunciation. Ask students to record themselves reading the chant learned in class and send the recording to the class group chat. 教学反思 After this class, I found that most students were interested in the content and actively participated in various activities. The group work and competition activities effectively mobilized students' enthusiasm. However, there are still some areas for improvement. For example, when teaching the pronunciation rules, although I used many examples, a few students still had difficulty accurately distinguishing the pronunciation of vowel letters in open syllables from that in other syllable structures. In future teaching, I will add more contrastive exercises to help students better master the differences. Also, during the group performance, some students were a little nervous, which affected their pronunciation and performance. I should provide more opportunities for students to perform in class to build up their confidence. Overall, through this class, students have initially mastered the pronunciation rules of vowel letters in open syllables, but continuous practice and improvement are still needed. 2 / 37 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
