English around the world说课

The subject is taken from Senior English Book 1, unit2, the reading part. I will give my lesson from 5 parts, that is, analysis of the teaching material(教学材料分析）, the teaching methods（教法）, the studying methods（学法）, the teaching procedures（教学过程）, and the blackboard design（黑板设计）. I will begin from the first part, analysis of the teaching material. Three aspects are included in this part. They are the understanding of this lesson（课文理解）, the teaching aims（教学目标）, the important points and the difficult points（重点与难点）. The title of the reading part is English Around the World. It will let students know that there are many kinds of English around the world, as well as that English

is

developing with cultural communications all the time. It also trains Students’learning skills. This part provides all-around practice about listening, reading, discussion, and comprehension. So it plays an important role in this unit.

the teaching aims are set as follows: Knowledge objectives: students will be able to

①Grasp some words and expressions such as, play a role in /because of/ come up/ play a part in and learn the grammar- the indirect speech of the imperative clause

②know more about English language and its development and different kinds of English through this passage.

Ability aims: to improve students’ overall abilities of listening, speaking, reading and writing, especially the speaking and reading ability. Affective objectives: students will be able to

①experience different kinds of activities in the English class and develop their interest towards English.

②know more about the English culture, realize the importance of English.

Next is the important points and difficult points.

The important points include: master the new words and expressions, such as:Majority; the majority of ; native speakers; mother tongue;foreign language and so on and have a good understanding of grammar-the indirect speech of the imperative clause.

The difficult point is how to enable the students to use the new knowledge in proper situations in their daily life.

Ok, that’s all about the first part, analysis of the teaching material. Now let’s come to the second part, teaching methods.

To achieve the teaching aims better, to enable students to master the important points, and to break through the difficult points, I will use the communicative teaching method and the task-based language teaching method in my teaching. And in order to practice my teaching

methods well, I will need the tape recorder, the multimedia, and the blackboard. Part 3 is the studying methods.

Students of this age are quick in mind and they are eager to show what they know, but they are lack of some certain knowledge and the courage to express themselves. Therefore, I will teach my students to master basic learning strategy, practice strategy, and communication strategy to improve their English abilities.

Now let’s come to the main part of a class, part 4, teaching procedures.

I have designed 5 steps to improve students’ listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities. They are lead in（导入）, reading（阅读）, language learning（语言学习）, post-reading（复述）, and homework（作业）. Step 1 is the lead in.（导入）

I think the most useful method to lead students is interest stimulating and discussion by themselves.

At beginning I will show them two groups of words (and let them guess which one is AE and which one is BE), and ask Ss whether they think that native English speakers can understand each other even they don

’

t speak the same kind of English. By my given material, they are likely to say yes. But I will tell them that native English speakers may not understand everything of the other speakers. For example, ‘homely’ in British

English means ‘making you feel comfortable,but in American English, it means ‘ugly, not attractive. If a man says it to a British woman, she will be happy while to an American woman she will be angry. After hearing this, my Ss must be eager to get more information about English around the world. It is the time that we begin our class. Step 2 is reading.（阅读）

Firstly, I will let the students to read the passage as quickly as they can to find out the main idea of this passage. Then, we will do the careful reading. I will play the tape part by part to let students find out the general idea of each paragraph, and then answer the following questions in detail.

Step 3 is language learning（语言学习）。

In this step, I will teach my students the passage in details about the vocabulary and grammar. And in grammar teaching, I will list the sentences of this passage containing the grammar-the indirect speech of the

imperative clause. Then let the students observe these sentences carefully to

draw a conclusion of the grammar themselves. Step 4 is post-reading.(读后）

In this step, I will ask my students to retell the passage to their partners. If they can finish this part well, they will benefit a lot in their spoken English.

The last step is homework.（作业）

I think homework should be interesting as well as useful. So I will ask my Ss to search for some pictures of national flags of major English speaking countries involved in the passage. I will ask them to describe the flags next time.

I will also ask them to work in pairs, one says a sentence, and the other changes the direct speech into indirect speech. In this way, Ss can use what they have learned in their daily life.

That’s the 5 steps of my teaching procedures. At last, I will give a brief introduction of my blackboard design.

A good blackboard design should contain the main knowledge points of the class and help students to organize their thoughts well. Therefore, l will divide the blackboard into 2 parts. The left part will be used to write the important vocabulary and grammar. It will be reserved for the whole class.

The

right

part

will

be

used

for

explanation.

I will write some sentence of the words, phrases and structures to explain their meaning.

Ok, that’s all for my presentation today. Thank you very much.
