Using LanguageⅠ优秀教案内容

Unit 3 Australia （一）教材分析：

本单元的中心话题是“澳大利亚”，主要内容涉及澳大利亚的地理、历史、主要城市、自然风光、野生动植物、风俗习惯等内容。语言技能和语言知识都是围绕这一中心设计的。

“语言学习”部分由词汇和语法两部分组成。词汇部分练习1匙一个含11个空的语篇，要求学生用课文中出现的生词填空。练习2也是个语篇题，内容是关于澳大利亚早期移民的艰苦生活。这个练习要求学生首先阅读短文，看看其中画线单词是否认识，不要着急查词典，先试试猜一猜的它的意思，并写在“你的释义”一栏中。最后，再查英英词典，将你不认识的单词的定义写在“定义”一栏中。这项练习包含了两种重要的词汇策略：1）根据上下文猜测生词的意思；

2）。用英语给英语单词下定义。练习3也包含了两种重要的词汇学习策略。即“学一个记一串”，

以一个单词为中心，衍生出与之相关的派生词和合成词。这个练习给予学生充分的联想空间，既巩固了课文生词，又复习了旧词，还通过同伴之间相互交流认识了更多的生词，一举多得。

语法部分复习的重点是“表语”。

三个练习所用的语篇虽然不同，但任务是一样的，都是要求学生辨认表语的各种形式。

语言的运用分为“听说”和“阅读讨论” 两部分。

听力材料为魏平和他的好友之间的一段对话---鲍勃劝说魏平去野营，但魏平有所顾忌。练习1介绍听力内容发生的背景，并让学生预测魏平为什么对露营敢到紧张，他有可能害怕什么。“阅读讨论”部分的主要内容是关于澳大利亚的几种危险动物展开。

辩论部分提供的题目是：澳大利亚是一个危险的旅游地点。
