课堂设计指导思想：

本节课是一节以阅读、讨论为主的活动课。Project是以阅读，语法，及Task的学习为基础，是语言学习从输入过渡到输出的必然结果。Project也是一种开放性研究学习活动，学生在完成背景材料阅读任务之后，在教师的指导下，通过小组协作明确选题，然后经过计划、准备、创作、呈现等一系列步骤完成活动任务。整个活动过程体现了自主学习、探究学习和合作学习。

1.

Read three summaries of the science fiction stories.

2.

Learn what a science fiction story is like and how to write a science fiction story. 3.

Work together and make out a summary of a science fiction story.

Teaching procedures:

①

Can you use some words to describe the film? (fantastic, amazing, imaginative, thrilling, exciting) ②

Have you ever read these science fiction stories? (the introduction to the author) 2.

Tell students that they will be introduced to two science fiction stories.

【设计说明】提问从学生自身的生活经验出发，引入science fiction的概念，激发学生的学习兴趣，导入主题。

3.

Ask students to have a discussion and think of their own science fiction stories and try to draw an outline of their stories using what they have learned. ①

If students could go to the past, which dynasty do they want to go most? ②

If students could go to the future, what would they like to do most? (some for plot; some for putting together the whole story; some for presentation) 【设计说明】用实例让学生了解科幻小说创作所需的基本要素，由于Project的任务一般耗时较长，不太可能当堂完成，因此先让学生进行讨论，初步定下故事框架。

Step 5

Presentation Ask several groups to present their story outlines. 【设计说明】初步定下故事框架，细节留待课后补充完成。

Step 6

Summary Make a summary about what have been learned in this lesson. 【设计说明】通过小结，再次强调所学内容，明确课后任务。

Step 8

Homework

Complete your science fiction stories in a week and be ready for a presentation of your story to your classmates. 【设计说明】明确作业的时间限制，并让学生做好展示自己作品的准备。
