七年级英语（下）第一单元教学设计Where is your pen pal from?[设计思想]《英语课程标准》倡导“任务型”的教学途径，落实任务性教学，其最终目的是培养学生听、说、读、写综合运用英语的能力。

教师应注重设计贴近学生生活实际的教学活动，避免以单纯传授语言知识为目的的教学方法，吸引学生充分参与到课堂活动中来。

“让学生做事”是设计课堂教学的主要原则，也是设计课堂任务的主要思路。

本节课设计如下四个真实的任务：任务（一）：请学生根据自己已经拥有的地理知识，将城市与国家名称贴在一起。

任务（二）：观看图片或地图，说出国家的名称。

任务（三）根据自己的爱好及提供的外国友人的相关信息，选择自己满意的笔友。

任务（四）：根据自己所选定的笔友的情况，在完成听力材料的基础上，给自己选择的笔友写一封信。

这四个任务之间合理过度，采取选择、确定、写作汇报的授课方式，调动学生运用要求掌握的语言结构做事的积极性，引导学生在学习的过程中学会归纳和实践等方法，重在侧重对学生学习策略等方面能力的培养；小组活动形式的目的在于增强同学之间的团结，培养学生谦虚好学的精神，同时也提供给学生更多运用英语的机会。
