Teaching Plan Interpretation
Book4 Unit5 B Let’s talk
Ladies and Gentlemen, It’s my great pleasure to be here sharing my lesson with you.
The content of my lesson is Book4 Unit5 B Let’s talk which comes from PEP primary English. This section is mainly about asking the price and inquiring the clothes size. I’ll explain how to teach and why do so from the following aspects: the analysis of teaching materials, analysis of students, teaching methods, learning methods, teaching procedure and blackboard design.
I. The analysis of the teaching materials
First, let me talk about the analysis of teaching material. This lesson is about a shopping topic. By study of this unit, the Ss know how to ask the price in English and how to describe the size and price with simple words and sentences. The sentence patterns of this lesson “ What size?” “How much are they?” and“We’ll take them .”are the key and difficult points of this unit.The study of this lesson will help the Ss with daily communication.
Moreover, this lesson completes the transition of the phrase “a pair of… ”to the sentence pattern “A pair of… for …” ,and helps the Ss further consolidate the knowledge of words of clothing appearing in plural form.
Therefore, on studying the teaching material and analyzing the regulation of children’s growing of mind,I put forward the teaching objectives according to new English lesson standard.
1.Perception objective:
a)The Ss can hear, read, and use the main sentence patterns “A pair of … for …” “What size?” “How much are they?” “We' ll take them.”
b)The Ss can understand and read the conversation of the lesson.
2.Ability objective:
a)The Ss can use the sentence pattern of inquiring the price, and further develop their language ability of “shopping”;
b)The Ss can use the patterns to express their thoughts in the proper scene.
3.Emotion objective:
a)By completing the task,the Ss increase their interest and set up self-confidence in language study;
b)Teach the Ss what is “love” and “ managing money matters”, put the moral education in the language study.
After that will be the teaching important points and teaching difficult points. The teaching important points are the following points: First of all, to study and use the sentence patterns “What size?”“How much are they ?”“A pair of … for … .” “We' ll take them.”To improve the Ss’ abilities in “shopping”; Secondly, teach the Ss how to study independently as well as by cooperation.
In additional, the teaching difficult points are organized as follows. The Ss can use the words and patterns to describe the clothes in the proper scene, and make simple dialogues of shopping. Well, how can teacher achieve the teaching objectives better and stress the key points and break through the difficult points? The key is how to make use of the proper teaching methods, I’ll talk about my teaching methods and learning methods below.
II. Teaching and learning methods
Teaching Methods:
According to the modern perception theories and social intercourse teaching theories, I adopt the TSA method and TBLT method in my teaching, namely Total Situational Action and Task-based Language Teaching. The former is a “scene — activity” teaching method .It establishes a real scene and the interaction between the teacher and the Ss .It emphasizes a dynamic information exchange between the teacher and Ss.The latter offers the Ss an opportunity to complete the tasks in which Ss use language to achieve a specific outcome. The activity reflects real life and learners focus on meaning, they are free to use any language they want.At the same time, make use of the modern electricity teaching equipments and all kinds of teaching means, it can mobilize the Ss’ enthusiasm and creativity in learning English.
Studying Methods:
Let Ss study in a relaxed and agreeable atmosphere. Ss understand the new knowledge in certain degree through the mental process of seeing, hearing, saying, observing, imagining , thinking etc. And make preparation for completing the new study task. After feeling and comprehending the language points, let Ss obtain the knowledge actively by probe study and cooperative study. Thereby, the Ss’ abilities of studying and working with the learning language will be developed independently.
III. The analysis of students
The next part will be the analysis of students. Students in Grade 5 are active and curious, interested in new things. After learning English for two years, they have some basic English background knowledge, so the teacher should attach importance to the communication with them, providing the chances of using language.
Ⅳ. Teaching procedure
Let's move on to the most important part-teaching process. In order to realize the teaching process systematically, properly and efficiently, under the principle of “regard Ss as the corpus, the teacher inspires for predominance”, I divide the teaching process into five steps.
Step1 Warm-up.
Sing a song: The coat in window.
So as to the psychological characteristics of children，singing a song can make Ss feel pleased and satisfied, and can arouse exciting motion. In this step , teacher and the Ss sing in unison and perform the song “The coat in window.” Thus,review the sentence pattern “How much is … ?” And arouse the Ss' performance desire, participation desire,and lead the Ss into a thick English studying atmosphere.
Step2 Presentation and practice.
1.Design: Look for Cinderella.
Broadcast a part of “Cinderella” with the flash, presenting a crystal shoe that Cinderella lose, and establishes a scene of ministers look for the proper size everywhere. Through the role playing, guide the Ss to use the sentence pattern “What size do you wear?” “Size … .”to make the question and answer.This design is a novelty of my lesson,it leads the Ss into the fairy tales. They acquire the language unconsciously and can do communication freely.
2.Lead to the shopping topic naturally from the unsuited shoes, and demonstrate the sentence pattern “How much are they?” With a good student to be the assistant, I perform to go shopping, and guide the Ss to make the answer: “They are … .”In this course, Ss can understand the main contents of this dialogue and get the key points by scene demonstration.
3.Game:Guess the price.
From buying a pair of shoes for myself to buying a pair for my mom, introduce the sentence pattern “A pair of … for … .” The CAI presents a big cabinet with various shoes, ask the Ss to guess their price, and then display them. It considers that children can keep their attentions in limited time. The game can avoid the lifelessness and boredom from the pure machine drills .It creates the conditions of a relaxed and natural atmosphere for children’s drills. Then achieve the aim of consolidating and deepening the sentence pattern.
4.Present the text.
a)At this time, John and his mom come to the shoe store.
It reappears the relevant conversation by broadcasting the VCD, let Ss know the text contents with a combination of audio and video, words and pictures, which cater to the characteristics of primary period to be curious and pursuing interest and freshness. b)After the audio-visual commences, play the tape recorder completely again, let the Ss concentrate on listening, then answer my questions according to the dialogue. e.g.:What size does John wear? How much? Whether buy or not, etc.
c)After be familiar with the text, let the Ss try to act out the dialogue. By this step, it achieved the teaching aim of understanding and talking the dialogue of this lesson.
Step3 Task time.
Task:Mother’s Day.
To master the language capability needs certain amount of practice.So,I still adopt the “Task-based”teaching method, which is defined by strong practicality and exact task, so as to make break-through about the difficult points of this lesson.In advance, I shall arrange the classroom to some business locations, such as clothes store, shoes store, fruit store etc. I shall divide the class into groups and play roles, and then give the Ss a certain quantity of specie currency, so that they may choose and buy the gifts for Mother’s Day.
For this step, I shall instruct the Ss to use the words and patterns learnt in the process of completing certain tasks. Meanwhile, they may have mutual improvement in exchanging information during the communicating activities.
Most Ss can take their parts in the activities, especially for the Ss who have trouble in English study. In the group activities, they can speak a little English with ease. With no doubt, this will encourage them to speak English. This step also leads to the emotion objective of this lesson, that is to have moral education in this step.
Step4 Consolidation and extension.
Summarize the whole lesson.
1.Do the correlative exercises in the activity book.Check the mastering of knowledge of this lesson.
2.Ask Ss to interview their friends asking the price and size of their clothing and make records of the information.
This content is an extension of the previous lesson, to meet the needs of increasing communicating demand of some Ss.
Step5: Homework
Review the new language points and recite the dialogue.
Ⅴ. Blackboard design
Show on the CAI.(It’s a ….) Anyway, the teaching of this lesson aims to develop not only the Ss' language technical abilities, but also the diverse intelligence by integrated teaching methods. As teachers, to make our English classrooms shine with vitality, we are laid with heavy burden, and we still have long way to go.
Above is the lecture notes of my lesson. Thank you.
