Word power: Words used in performing优秀获奖教案

Teaching plan for Unit One Module Six Wordlist ---江苏省江阴市第一中学

赵金芬

【设计背景】

牛津英语M6U1 Laughter is good for you. 主要以Laughter 为主展开单元的话题。其中包括相声，单口相声，马戏团表演的各种形式。还在reading 部分介绍了单口相声的形式，著名的喜剧家Billy Crystal，和笑的好处。Task部分是通过向国外的朋友介绍中国的相声。最后的Project部分则是由两个幽默的play组成。整个单元的内容都是由笑展开并拓展，其词汇也是相对应。但是由于一节课要把整个单元内容全部教授完毕，并要求是一个环环相扣的整体，其实还是比较有难度的。因为各个部分虽然是彼此联系，但是相关的词汇却是很松散的。所以在设计的时候只能根据考纲重点词汇要求，兼顾本课的设计思路和主线，适当舍弃一些词汇。同时因为本课是单元词汇新授课，所以设计的思路以新单词认识，会读，会用，还有一些重点单词的简单用法介绍为主。

【教学对象的分析】

高二学生经过一年多的高中英语学习，有一定的词汇积累和一定的英语语言功底，能够较为自如地表达自己对一些事物的观点；另一部分学生在掌握了一些关键词汇的基础上也能就一定话题发表自己独到的看法，学生之间的合作学习也有了很好的发展。通过上下文的语境来猜测词义是教学中一直强调的重点，学生在这一方面略有进步。所以本课的词汇授课基本上是以语境为主，通过上下文猜测词义，借助小组讨论集思广益，最后也能够根据本课所学加以运用，成为语篇。

Teaching objectives,

At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to: 1.pronounce the words and phrases correctly and know the basic meaning of them; 2. describe Mr. Bean briefly by using newly-learned words and phrases; 3. Paraphrase or use the newly-learned 4. realize the positive influence that laughter has in our daily life.

Teaching focus, 1.

Guess the meanings of the new words from the text. 2.

How to use the words in different context. Teaching difficulties, 1.

To guess the meanings of the difficult words from a long text and explain each one in English. 2.

Introduce a comedian using the words the students have learned from this class. Teaching procedures: Leading-in Watch a funny video and ask the question “What makes you burst into laughter?”

Step One

T: What comedians do you know? Introduce some new words [comedy, comedian, burst] Then introduce the words [crosstalk, stand-up, silent film, comedy films] T:Today we will focus another comedian. He is called Mr. Bean. He put on a lot of performances on stage and he is a great performer. He behaves in a funny way.

In fact, that isn't the case at all. I am a rather dull person who just happens to be a __________（演员）appeared in _____（喜剧）".using the words the the students have learned. 【设计背景】

文章以Mr.Bean 为主线贯穿始终，这时引用Mr.Bean的名言把目前所学到的词汇整理起来并进行填空。既不脱离主线，又能够起到学为所用的目的。

Step Three T; What is Mr.Bean like in your eyes?

S.... T; Let’s learn more about him. On your students’ sheet, here is a piece of lifestory of Mr. Bean. Read it loudly and discuss the meanings of the words which are underlined and explain each one in English. Step Four

Focus on the frequently used words and introduce their basic usage.

【设计背景】

Mr.Bean 的life story的文章进一步把所需要的词汇印出来，同时此处设计为让学生以讨论的方式把这些新单词用英文解释出来。进一步把“新学”与“旧学”结合起来。同时针对其中一些重要的单词和短语进行简单的语用介绍，其他的用法会在接下来的知识点讲解中继续讲评的。

Step Five

T; Mr.Bean often made fun of other’ behavior in his performance.So let’s see how did he make fun of others. After watching the video, retell it out by filling in the missing blanks.

Mr.Bean 的lifestory的文章进一步把所需要的词汇印出来，同时此处设计为让学生以讨论的方式把这些新单词用英文解释出来。进一步把“新学”与“旧学”结合起来。同时针对其中一些重要的单词和短语进行简单的语用介绍，其他的用法会在接下来的知识点讲解中继续讲评的。

Step Six

T: A few days a ago, I saw a picture which made me shocked. What happened to Mr Bean? He passed away. All his fans mourn the death the him. His families were very angry.

Lots of my fans came to my house to... Interviewer:

How did you respond? Bean: My family members...

Interviewer: Did the news...? Bean: Not at all. Actually I ... 【设计背景】

这个部分的设计同样是借助Mr.Bean的一张图片引出相关词汇和短语。然后这次我设计为运用学生之间编对话的方式把这组学到的相应词和短语能够运用起来。

Step Seven

reward you. Choose one to open.If it contains a gift, you receive it. If it

Possible version

Stephen Chow is a famous comedian in China. In his childhood, he lived with his mother and sisters in poverty, but he always had a positive attitude towards life and had a great affection for acting. After graduating from high school, he participated in an acting activity run by TVB, a Hong Kong television where he wasn't taken on. Although he was a little-known performer in the first few years of his career, he never gave up and kept practicing a variety of acting skills to form his own style on the stage. In 1990, Stephen Chow showed his comedy talent in the film All For The Winner(赌圣), which was different from the previous movies and amused the audience a lot. His big success helped him attain the initial goal in his life, and finally his style known as "Makes no sense(wulitou)" guaranteed his important position in the comedy film. 【设计背景】

这是本课的最后一部分操练，我通过给予礼物的方式让学生完成本课最后的三个任务。第一，选择礼物盒子能够调动学生的兴趣。二，通过这种方式学生能够完成三个任务，一环一环地把本节课所学的内容再次巩固学习。三个任务的设计也是由易到难的。第一部分是简单的选词填空，第二部分是猜词游戏，把整节课所学所有词过了一遍，重新回顾了一下词义。第三个部分则是在第二部分所有词总结出来的基础上，运用所学单词做一个关于comedian的report. Step Eight

T; Here is the real gift I want to give to you. That is some cool text. Laughter is the best medicine. Add joy to your life. Unload sorrow from your heart. Give the world a smile and the world will smile to you. Have fun and let's say haha.... The initial letters are LAUGH That’s we have learned---the most valuable gift. 【设计背景】

通过一系列的句子，把laugh印出来，并再次点出本单元的主题。Laughter is good for you.

【教学设计后记】

词汇教学课对我来说是比较陌生的。把一个单元的单词在一节课之内全部教授完毕，还要让

学生最后有质的呈现，这个是很有挑战性的事情。本课我所设计的内容以Mr.Bean为主线，从他的简单介绍，到他的生活故事，再到最后他的重点特点的呈现，把相关的单词基本上都涵盖进去了。也简要介绍了一些单词的用法，其实我个人认为单词新授课的重点还是在会读，认识，知道其基本简单的用法。对于语言点的拓展之类的可以延伸到语言点的课上再去重点突出。所以这节课我所设计的语言点并不多。主要是词的读和用这两个方面。从零碎的词的输入，再到最后的guessing-game的巩固，再到最后的语篇的输出，基本上学生能够从词到句子到篇章的升华。并且最后的情感目标即了解笑在现实生活中的意义，也就达到了。
