四．學(xué)情分析：
The topic of this unit is about vacation plans. This is an interesting topic for students. So all the activities in this unit are helpful to raise students ' learning interesting.
五 教學(xué)設(shè)想：
使大部分學(xué)生都能掌握所學(xué)知識和技能。使基礎(chǔ)薄弱的學(xué)生能參與到教學(xué)當(dāng)中來，以此提高他們的學(xué)習(xí)興趣。例如，讓他們進行簡單的對話練習(xí)，鼓勵他們開口朗讀，積極參與到小組活動當(dāng)中去，培養(yǎng)他們合作意識。
六．教學(xué)方法：
《英語課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)》明確指出，基礎(chǔ)教育階段英語課程的任務(wù)是：“激發(fā)和培養(yǎng)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語的興趣，使學(xué)生樹立自信心，養(yǎng)成良好的學(xué)習(xí)習(xí)慣和形成有效的學(xué)習(xí)策 略，發(fā)展自主學(xué)習(xí)的能力和合作精神”。按照這個理論指導(dǎo)，結(jié)合初中生的年齡特點和認(rèn)知規(guī)律，針對這一課型，我主要采用任務(wù)型教學(xué)、直觀教學(xué)、小組活動等教學(xué)方法，以學(xué)生為主體，強調(diào)學(xué)生的自主學(xué)習(xí)，鼓勵學(xué)生大膽嘗試，運用語言，并在語言使用過程中，學(xué)習(xí)新知識。在詞匯教學(xué)方面，以圖片呈現(xiàn)句型，把單詞放到句型里教學(xué)達到直觀聯(lián)想的效果，對句型的記憶產(chǎn)生良好的作用。在句型教學(xué)方面，通過師生問答、生生問答、小組活動等方式，復(fù)習(xí)教學(xué)語言點，反復(fù)練習(xí)使用，達到熟練使用新句型。
七．學(xué)習(xí)策略與思維技巧
通過合作學(xué)習(xí)，啟發(fā)學(xué)生思維，培養(yǎng)合作意識。以《英語課程標(biāo)準(zhǔn)》理論為依據(jù)，教學(xué)本課時教師選擇大量圖片直觀形象的 進行教學(xué)啟發(fā)、引導(dǎo)、觀察、記憶、模仿并表演新學(xué)句型，師生、生生進行多維活動交流，以達到教學(xué)目的
