Section A教学目标

《Where is your pen pal from》Section A教学设计

[设计思想] 《英语课程标准》倡导“任务型”的教学途径，其最终目的是培养学生综合运用英语的能力。教师应注重设计贴近学生生活实际的教学活动，避免以单纯传授语言知识为目的的教学方法，吸引学生充分参与到课堂活动中来。

“让学生做事”是设计课堂教学的主要原则，也是设计课堂任务的主要思路。

本节课设计如下四个真实的任务，任务（一）：请学生根据自己已经拥有的地理知识，将城市与国家名称贴在一起。任务（二）：已经掌握的国家名称，观看片段，猜一猜出现的国家。任务（三）根据自己的爱好及所收到的外国友人的相关信息，选择自己满意的笔友；任务（四）：根据自己所选定的笔友的情况，在完成听力材料的基础上，使用要求掌握的句型调查哪位同伴的笔友和自己的笔友来自同一个国家，并将调查结果进行汇报。这四个任务之间合理过度，采取选择、确定、调查及汇报的授课方式，调动学生运用要求掌握的语言结构做事的积极性，引导学生在学习的过程中学会归纳和实践等方法，重在侧重对学生学习策略等方面能力的培养；小组活动形式的目的在于增强同学之间的团结，培养学生谦虚好学的精神，同时也提供给学生更多运用英语的机会。

[实施方案] 教学目标：1.学会谈论人们的国籍。

2.学会询问并回答人们的居住城市。
