Unit 4 He said I was hard-working.Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, I am Lai xiumei. It’s my great ple asure to stand here to interpret my lesson. Today I am going to talk abo ut the first period in Section A of Unit 4 He said I was hard-working, whi ch is taken from Go for it, Book 4.My presentation consists of six parts: analysis of the teaching material, analysis of the students, teaching metho ds, guiding of studying ways, teaching procedures and teaching reflection s.I. Analysis of the teaching materiali)Status and functionThe topic of this unit is about telling a story. The first period serves as an introduction and a warming up. They will learn to talk about what a soap opera is and report what people said. The materials in talking are mostly from the daily life and are familiar to students, so they are very interested in it.A series of questions and a big picture are used to attracts students’ attention. And listening and pair-work are also used in this period.ii) Teaching aims and demands1. Knowledge ObjectsIn this lesson, Ss should master the new word “mad” and the phrase“ be mad at”. At the same time, they should know how to use the key structures in this unit.2. Ability ObjectsIn this lesson, I’ll mainly train the Ss listening and speaking abilities and deve lop the Ss’ abilities of communication by learning the useful structures.3. Moral ObjectsFrom this lesson, the Ss should learn how to work with others and help each other, how to express their own ideas during the communication.4.Teaching keys and difficultiesAccording to the teaching aims, I think the focus of this lesson is the new expressions and help the Ss to communicate with each other. The difficulty is to help the Ss make conversations freely .5．Teaching aidsA tape recorder and a computer for multimedia use.II.Analysis of the studentsThe Ss have learned English for one and a half years, they can express their thought and communicate with each other with English well. And all the Ss will be interested in the topic, which is related to their real life.. It’s helpful for our study of this lesson.III.Teaching methodsIn this lesson, I’ll mainly use the cooperating teaching method, and it will be used in the whole lesson. I think it’s helpful to develop the Ss’ thought. I’ll also use “situation communicating” method. It can provide enough listeningand speaking situations for Ss. I think good teaching methods are the keys to success.IV．Guide of studying waysIn order to guide the Ss better, develop the Ss’ abilities, in this lesson, the Ss will learn how to be a good language learner, and how to communicate with others. It will be very helpful for their learning in the future. I think good studying ways can help the Ss to be good language learners.V．Teaching proceduresStep1. Revision.First , have a dictation of Unit3.Purpose of my designing: I think it is important to review the knowledge we have learned.Step 2 PresentationAsk four students to stand in front of the class, and the teacher asks them the following questions as a reporter.1. What are you going to do when you grow up?2. What are you going to do next week?3. What are going to do after school?The students will give different answers, then ask a good student to report what they said.I am going to e a doctor.What did she say?----------She said she was going to be a doctor.I am going to have a party on Friday night.What did he say?-------He said he was going to have a party on Friday night.I am going to do my homework.What did she say ?------ She said she was going to do her homework.I am going home after school.What did she say?-----She said she was going home after school.Say In this unit we are going to learn to use words like to report what someone said. Purpose of my designing: This activity introduces some new vocabulary and provide oral practice using the target language. I think it is much easier for the Ss to learn if I present the key structures one by one and they can master the structures quickly by doing this.Step 3 Group-workStudents read the instructions. Then ask a student to read the four questions. And write the words on the books. Explain what soap opera is and encourage Ss to say some soap operas in English or in Chinese.Help Ss form small groups. Ss begin to talk about the questions. .E.g. What did Marcia say? She said she said she was having a surprise party for Lana on Friday night. Repeat the other pictures in the same way.And explain the meaning of “be mad at sb”( here it means “be angry with sb”) Purpose of my designing: This step is employed to make the Ss get the general idea of the dialogue as a whole one. At the same time let the Ss have a chance to practice their listening and spoken ability.Step4 Listening practiceListen and number the pictures in activity 1a.Task 1. Play the recording the first time. Students only listen.Task 2. Play the recording a second time. Students number the pictures. Then check the answers.Purpose of my designing: It gives Ss practice in understanding the target language in spoken conversations.Step5. Pair-work 1c1.Read the instructions.2.Ask the Ss to read the example in the sample dialogue. Let the Ss ask andanswer questions about each picture.3.Ask several pairs of students to say a question and answer to the class. Purpose of my designing: Task-based teaching method is used here to develop Ss’ ability of communication and also their ability of co-operation will be well trained.Step7.Homework1. Make up your own conversations.2. Write down the sentences in 1a.Purpose of my designing: Revision is so important that Ss should speak English as much as they as in class or after class. It is necessary for the Ss to do some extensive exercises after class to consolidate the knowledge they learned.Blackboard designUnit 4 He said I was hard-working.soap opera be mad at sb = be angry with sbHe said…S he said…I am going to do my homework.What did she say ?------ She said she was going to do her homework.VI. Teaching reflectionThere is only one new word in this lesson: mad, and the phrase: be mad at .During my preparation, I prepared a lot of pictures to realize the revision and teaching of the newwords. I found that they were quite attractive when students saw them during the teaching. In terms of my organization of the class, there were six steps in detail. They were revision, presentation, group-work, listening, pair-work and survey. Revision occupied about 4 minutes; presentation occupied 5 minutes; group-work and pair-work accounted for half of the class; listening lasted about 7 minutes, and I used 6 minutes to do the survey . I was quite satisfied with the part of oral practice, because every student participated in listening and talking. They could give correct answers when they stood up. The feedback information was ideal at this point. Meanwhile, I was not satisfied with the listening part. If I had five more minutes, I would play the tape recorder for another time and let them repeat what they heard. Because of the limited time, I just let them listen and check the answers, I think it’s not enough if I want to develop their listening and speaking abilities.That’s all about my class. Thank s for your listening.。
