教学过程设计

Step1.The  importance of listening

1.The importance of listening

Listening is preparing for speaking.

Before we ask children to speak or repeat after the  teacher or the recorder, they should be allowed to listen and respond with  gestures and actions as a way to show their understanding

2.Purpose of listening

Slattery and Wills (2001) pointed:

Using listening for a purpose ;

Giving them the opportunity →

to show what they understand;

to acquire the language;

to absorb the sounds and patterns of the language  naturally.

Step 2. Listening activities

1. (understanding and thinking,  real-life, clear purpose)

Listen and do, coloring, numbering, ticking,  pointing, matching

Listen and judge, draw, choose, discriminate, order,  compare, guess,  follow directions

Listen and fill in the table, complete the flow  chart, finish the dialogue, solve the problem, join in

Note-taking

Step 3. Requirements of listening

See textbook Page61 and 62

Step4.Principles of Listening

1. Principles: Give children confidence

Explain why children have to listen

Help children develop specific strategies for  listening

Set specific listening tasks

Let children listen to authentic English

Let children be active in listening

 2.  Case analysis

   1) video pieces for Ss to discuss:   Case l(Healthy Food); Case 2(Nail Soup)

结合案例1,谈谈教师是如何贯彻听的原则的？

结合案例2,谈谈教师如何帮助学生建立听的自信？

   2) implications:

Demonstrate more so that  children get familiar with the sounds and meaning and gradually build up the  link

Check understanding before doing actions

3. Act and discuss

Read the two extracts  taken from real lessons, act out and discuss with your partner about the  effectiveness (P164)

Practice Teaching Listening(P165)

Step6. The aims and objectives of teaching speaking to children

1. Importance of Speaking

Listening and speaking are  often more important at the beginning, and children are interested in  communicating with others through listening and speaking.

2. The  aims and objectives of teaching speaking to children

1). What should be the focus when teaching speaking  to children?

- design motivating activities and games;

- repeat in different forms;

- not teach grammar rules explicitly;

- focus on meaning

2). Aims and objectives of teaching speaking to  children in the primary school

Level 1:

Level 2:(see page 65)

3. Principles of Teaching Speaking

Ss discuss: What should be the focus when  teaching speaking to children? 

-----Learner-centered;

-----interactive

-----meaning-focused

-----collaborative

-----purposeful

-----task-based

4. Characteristics common in successful speaking  tasks ：

•     Maximum  foreign talk (avoid use of native language)

•     Even  participation (for all students)

•     High  motivation (interesting topic or clear objective to be reached)

•     Right  language level (not too difficult)

Ss think about it: how to satisfy the  criteria of successful speaking activities?

Step7. Speaking Activities

1. Classification of speaking activities

1) Controlled activities:

       Controlled activities mainly focus on form and accuracy.

2) Semi-controlled activities.

     Semi-controlled activities focus more on meaning and communication.

3) Communicative activities.

Communicative activities  allow for real information exchange

 2.  Order the pictures

   Ss order the three pictures and tell the reason.

Step8. Let’s talk 版块基本课堂教学步骤

1. Warm-up/Revision  利用Let’s learn复习会话教学中的主要词汇，扫清词汇理解上的障碍

2. Presentation 尽量创设真实的情景整体呈现会话语篇内容（听录音，看挂图，讲故事，演木偶，看vcd）

3. Practice 提取主句型，让学生通过语境理解句型的含义，从机械性操练(带读/跟读）过渡到趣味活动操练重点语言，增加输入量，以多种形式呈现，从而引发学生学习兴趣并帮助学生理解巩固新知识

4. Meaningful Practice—Group work/Let’s play 版块可作为主句型的趣味操练活动来开展

5. Consolidation—Back to the text 通过总-分对会话版块的学习，回归课本再次整体感知，借助图片分角色朗读、设情景表演、整体操练对话（锻炼学生听说能力）

达成教学目标：1）通过板书和其他教学辅助手段让学生能从音、形、意、用掌握主要句型；

2）Let’talk版块能理解意义、能听懂、能朗读

Step9. Practice

 1.  Watch a choice lesson: Health Club

 2. 思考如何把英语听说理论在Let’s  talk的教学中进行实施？

3. 阅读P200关于信息差的材料，思考P170的如何理解口语教学和口语活动开展相关问题
