Teaching procedure: Step 1 leading in

T: Good morning, class. Ss: Good morning, teacher. T: Boys and girls, you sit here, study here and do a lot of homework every day. Have you thought about these questions?

1.

Why do you come here? 2.

Why do you study every day? 3.

What do you study for? (Students give their own answers) Maybe someone says you want to have a good education so that you can get a good job in the future. All of us want to be successful. Actually, in our life, someone seems successful, someone not. Why? Maybe I can tell you the answer.

( Show an apple) Look, what’s this? Yes, an apple. What can you do with an apple? Someone says, “eat it”. In most people’s eyes, it is just a common apple, and we can eat it. But in someone’s eyes, it is different. I’ll tell you two stories. ( Show the PPT) Many years ago, there was a man sitting under an apple tree. Suddenly, an apple dropped… it hit the man’s head. If you were the man, what would you do? ( students begin to talk about it) The man did something different. He found out the law of universal gravitation (万有引力). With the apple, he became famous. Who was the man? （The students give the right answer）

T: Yes, he was Newton, a famous scientist. It was the apple that made him famous. ( Show the PPT) The second story. About three hundred years later, there was still a man. He held and apple, watching it carefully, and took a big bite. He watched the apple, deep in thought. It was not a whole apple. It seemed not perfect, but the man used the apple as a logo of his products and sold them to every corner of the world. Almost everybody likes his products. Who was the man?

( Students talk about it and give the answer soon)

T: The man was Steve Jobs, a big boss. The apple made him successful. ( Let students talk about the two men) T: ( give the conclusion) For the two men, the apple was different, it was a chance they grasped. The chance brought them success. T: Have you thought about your future jobs? What do you want to be in the future? Tell me the reason. Ss: talk about the questions in pairs and several students present their thoughts in class.

T: We always choose the job according to our advantages and interests. Now I give you a task. Try to remember these words on PPT. we will have a competition. I will show you the rules first. (The teacher shows the rules to the students.) Ss: Have a competition. Each group chooses one student. The four students try to remember the job words as many as possible in one minute. Then they say the words one by one. The one who says the most words in the winner. T: All of you did a good job. I think all jobs are meaningful. When we are sick, we can see a doctor. When we are in danger, we can ask the policeman for help. Today, we will learn a lesson about our future jobs. Lesson 55: Look into the Future. Open your books and turn to page 146. Pay attention to the phrase “look into”, here it means “展望，调查，观察”.

Step2:Reading

T: read the text together. Then you will three minutes to finish the task-based reading. Try to find out the answers. Ss: students read together and finish the task. About five students are chosen to present their answers. Step2: Language points The teacher shows three important sentences on the screen. 1.

What do you want to be when you grow up? 2.

I don’t doubt you would be a good boss. 3.

As for me, I’m going to choose the most fun and exciting job in the world.

Students discuss in groups and write down the language points. The students give their results, and the teacher adds up. Students do some exercises on the screen.

Step4: Practice T: if you have a dream, what should you do to make your dream come true? Here are four students. Match the job and the action.

Ss: Choose the right answers and practice the structure, to make my dream come true, I should……

Step5: Writing Write a short composition (作文)，about 50 words.

1. What do you want to be when you grow up? Why?

2. What should you do now to make your dream come true?

( about 8 minutes. Ask two or three students present their compositions.) Show an example:

I want to be a doctor when I grow up. Because I had a weak body when I was a little boy. I want to be a doctor so that I can help sick people. To realize my dream, I will try my best to work hard and enter a medical college.

Step6: Conclusion T: Today, we talked about our future, our dream jobs. We knew so many meaningful and important jobs. Whatever we do in the future, we should try our best to serve more people. If your job makes people around you happy, it can mean a successful job. At last, I have some advice for you. Remember to choose your jobs according to your advantages and interests, not just money. But for now, you are still students. I have one sentence “the best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today ”. So all of you should work hard now. 教学反思：

从学情上分析，该节课是九年级的一节课，对于知识水平已经相对成熟的初三学生来说，知识的系统性和完整性尤其重要，因此本节课并无过多的花哨设计，而是在更多环节巧妙设计知识的输入方式，让学生不感到疲惫又比较有趣味性的大量输入知识。本节课的话题是谈论未来职业，学生比较感兴趣，而关于职业的单词让学生枯燥记忆效果显然不是理想的，因此我在本课记忆单词

环节采用了头脑风暴形式，让学生快速记忆，又让学生分组比赛，这样的记忆单词方式既新鲜又刺激，学生的印象更深刻。本科设计了大量的问与答环节，让学生既锻炼的口语，又在轻松的对话中掌握了本课重点。而为了使学生知识系统化，最后专门设计的一篇课堂写作，让学生进一步巩固所学知识。因此，本节课在设计环节比较注重学生综合能力，听说读写都练习到位。但是，本课也有不完美的地方，课本的知识点没有面面俱到，最后的课堂写作时间稍显仓促，希望在以后的教学设计中避免这些问题。
