教材分析:本单元通过学习诗歌，寓言及童话故事，让学生感受西方文学艺术的语言魅力。本节课要学习的伐木工的这则寓言故事能够启发学生认识到诚实是日常生活中最重要的品质之一，鼓励他们要做诚实的人，传递正能量。

学情分析：绝大多数农村孩子的英语课外读物很少，他们对西方文学及文化的了解仅限于翻译过来的中文版。通过学习，要让孩子们感受到西方文学艺术的语言魅力并知道诚实也是西方人推崇的一种重要品质；其次，对于受客观条件限制的农村孩子来说，拥有标准的语音语调及流利的口语表达感觉很难，要减小与大城市孩子的差距，英语课上大量的正音、听读、复述等口头表达的练习当属重中之重。

教学目标: 1.语言目标:fable, woodcutter, axe, dive, spirit, silver, policy, admit sth. to sb, make one’s/a living, dive into…, Honesty truly is the best policy. 2.能力目标:学生会大声朗诵课文，明白寓言寓意，对寓言进行复述并绘声绘色地表演出来。

3.情感目标:通过学习唤起学生对西方文学的热爱并能让学生深刻体会到诚实的重要性，并意识到自己也要做一个诚实的人。

教学重、难点: 1.

鼓励引导学生能流利地复述、绘声绘色地表演这则寓言；

Find another fable and act it out in English. 教学反思：

这节课我注重了人人参与，给每个同学都给了一次表现机会，但我个人认为评价不够到位；还有在课堂上引出了诚实待人的重要性，如能加以拓展，鼓励学生将生活中的诚信故事用英语分享交流或用英语谈谈以后如何做诚实的人（如不说谎，考试不作弊等等），这样会更好一些。
