Ⅶ Teaching procedures
Step 1 Warm-up
Watch a video about different kinds of sports and list names of sports.
【设计理念:观看含有不同体育项目的视频，激发学生对体育的兴趣，同时也唤醒学生本节课学习的热情。视频看完后，鼓励学生尽可能多地说出一些运动项目，既复习了上节课学习的关于体育的单词，也可以根据学生的反应适当教授更多的词汇，寓教于乐，扩大学生的词汇量。师生自由对话谈论自己喜欢的体育运动和运动明星，既活跃了课堂气氛，也调动了学生的课堂积极性。】
T:Boys and girls，before class we watched a short video about sports.There are many sports in it.Can you list them？If you have trouble in saying some，you can say them in Chinese.
football，skating，rowing，cycling，diving，running，fencing，weightlifting，javelin（板书并带读）
T:They are all sport events.Which sport do you like best？Who is your favourite player？
Step 2 Lead-in
（1）Present pictures of Messi and ask students some questions to lead in the topic and some new words.
【设计理念:1.教师通过介绍自己最喜欢的足球运动员梅西，创建了一个真实的语言环境，既调动了学生的积极性，又在和学生的互动中，拉近了与学生的距离。2.梅西是一名现在很受欢迎的足球明星，被学生们所熟知，这个人物贴近学生的生活。3.选择呈现梅西的一些精彩的照片，能够吸引学生的注意力，同时在轻松愉悦的课堂氛围下，导入本课的单词和短语，更易于学生接受。4.对于新词汇的教授也不是生硬刻板的，而是在语境中让学生猜测和理解词义。教师反复带读生词，让学生在课堂上掌握发音和拼写。5.本环节的设计为下面活动的开展做了铺垫。】
T:Look at the man.Do you know him Messi？
What's he？A football player.（板书并带读）
T:Messi is my favourite football player.Do you like him？
How does he look？Yes，he looks strong.（板书并带读）

Do you know his dream？He wants to play in the next World Cup.I hope his dream can come true.（板书并带读in the next World Cup，dream，come true）
（2）Show students Simon's picture to lead in the lesson.
【设计理念:介绍完教师自己最爱的足球运动员后，引出Simon最喜欢的运动什么，最喜欢的运动员是谁呢。通过几个问题的追问，不仅帮助学生回忆了先前课本中提及的Simon的情况，又自然而然过渡到本节课即将学习的内容。】

What sport does Simon like？What does Simon do after school？
T:Do you know who is Simon's favourite football player？Let's turn to Page 20 and read this passage.

Ⅸ Teaching reflection
本课线索清晰，各活动环环相扣，由浅入深，水到渠成，符合学生的认知发展规律。活动设计遵循趣味性、探究性、开放性原则，拓宽了学生的视野，培养了实践能力。
学生对本课的话题很感兴趣，整节课都保持一种互动、轻松、愉快、和谐的学习氛围。
本节课设计了很多活动，学生学习情绪非常高涨，扩大了学生的参与度，提高了积极性。正确处理了教师和学生的角色关系，体现了教师的主导作用和学生的主体地位。在教师的引导和调控下，学生积极配合教师，很好地完成本课的教学目标。
点评：
本节课的教学设计符合新课程标准理念，教学目标明确，教学活动由浅入深，环环相扣。读前活动有三个作用:
1.观看体育项目的视频激发学生的阅读动机。
2.呈现足球明星梅西的运动图片为学生激活和提供必要的背景知识，通过简单的问答引出本节课的话题“最喜欢的运动”。
3.通过看图说话引出新的词汇，为进一步阅读解决理解上的语言障碍。这个步骤是整堂课的一个关键点，是使学生从平和达到兴奋的转折点。用师生都感兴趣的视频和人物，引起师生的共鸣，拉近学生和教师的距离，为创造一个热情的、活跃的、和谐的课堂气氛打下基础。
读中活动的设计重点在培养学生运用略读和扫读两种阅读技巧的能力。略读是眼睛看着阅读材料上的某个预选部分，以获得对所读材料的整体性理解。教师引导学生浏览性阅读全文，回答问题，跳跃式地读，读文章的主旨段、主旨句以获取文章的中心思想和主要内容，进而帮助学生梳理段落结构，了解段落大意。扫读是眼睛为了寻找大脑所需的特定信息而对材料所做的扫视，是寻找特定信息的一种过程。学生通过分段阅读完成信息卡，完成表格、问与答、填空判断正误、完成句子等活动，有目的地查找、获取信息，进行有效阅读，降低了阅读的难度，培养了阅读的技巧，同时使学生体验到学习的乐趣和成功的愉悦。
读后活动设计一个采访的活动来检验阅读的效果，活动形式新颖，能锻炼学生复述课文的能力，让学生进一步熟悉课文内容，巩固所学的语言知识，认识语篇的结构层次和意图层次，体验内含的情感，并学会创造性地运用本课所掌握的语言形式。学生在用中学，学中用，学用结合，体现学以致用的原则，培养学生的语言输出技能。
