Module 3 Journey to space
一、教材内容分析
本模块以人类探索宇宙的行为为背景引入现在完成时的用法,通过人类对宇宙太空所做努力的描述强化现在完成时的表意功能,开展听说读写教学活动。教学内容为语法的学习和使用提供了必要的感性材料。本模块的中心话题是介绍航天知识,着重介绍了火星探索方案以及宇宙中太阳系的局部知识。要求学生能够了解一点航天知识,学会利用现在完成时描述人类已经实施的太空探索方案。
二、学情分析
在前一个模块“Experiences〞的学习中,学生初步掌握了利用现在完成时态谈论旅游、看电影、看书等经历,学习了现在完成时的一般疑问句及肯定、否认的答复方法。在本模块中,学生将继续学习yet, already, just等词在现在完成时态中的用法及have been to与 have gone to之间的区别。人类探索宇宙,是否真的存在外星人,太空旅行……这些一直都是学生们非常感兴趣的话题,学生会觉得有话可说。但是在讨论这一话题时将涉及较多的专有名词,学生掌握的难度较大。所以如果教材内容处理不当,会导致学生有话想说,却无法用英语来表达的为难场面。因此在具体安排教学内容时,应注意适当降低难度与要求,通过开展生动有趣的活动将航天知识深入浅出的传授给学生。
三、教学目标
国家«英语课程标准»指出,教学的开展应该激发和培养学生学习英语的兴趣,使学生树立自信心,养成良好的学习习惯和形成有效的学习策略,开展自主学习的能力和合作精神。在教学过程中要努力培养学生的观察、记忆、思维、想象能力和创新精神。依据这些要求,我制订了本模块的教学目标:
1.语言技能目标
(1)能够听懂对火星方案的陈述。
(2)能够介绍人类对太空的探索经历。
(3)能够读懂有关太空话题的文章,掌握文章的大意。
(4)能够结合图片、录像等手段介绍对太空所进行的探索。
2.语言知识目标
(1)能够运用现在完成时描述人类的太空探索方案,正确使用already, just, yet。
(2)能够正确使用以下单词:earth, just, station, latest, month, discover, show, over, also, part
(3)能够理解以下单词和词组:Mars, mission, unmanned, space shuttle, space station, billion, solar system, universe, galaxy, Jupiter
(4)能够掌握和识别句子的重音
3.情感态度目标
(1)通过开展生动活泼的教学活动,激发学生的学习兴趣。
(2)在小组活动中积极与他人合作,相互帮助,共同完成学习任务, 尽情享受学习的乐趣。
4.文化意识目标
(1)通过中国“神州五号〞、“神州六号〞载人航天太空探索增强民族意识和自豪感。
(2)让学生了解一些航天知识,空间站的生活情况,九大行星的根本情况及适合人类生存的根本条件等,实现跨学科交流的目的。
5.学习策略目标
(1)自主学习 能够结合个人情况预习教材和拓展。
(2)合作学习 能够与同学交流学习心得体会,共享学习策略。
(3)能利用网上学习资源查找信息,用所学内容进行真实的交际,积极参与课外英语学习。
(4)通过合作讨论、游戏、竞赛、单词联想等多种形式,实现在用中学、为用而学、学用结合、学而能用的原那么。
四、重点难点
1.教学重点
(1)重点词汇:earth, just, station, latest, month, discover, show, over, also, part, light, real, already, yet, several, beyond, alone, cost, prefer
(2)重点句型:-Have you … yet
-Yes, I / we have already / just …
-No, not yet. / No, I / we haven’t … yet.
-I have been to … He/ She has gone to …
(3)话题:宇宙探索
2.教学难点
(1)用现在完成时描述人类已经实施的太空探索方案。
(2)have been to与have gone to的区别。
五、课时安排

Step 1 Lead-in
1. Word map construction
Show students a video about humans landing on the moon, and ask students to say out the things they see. Help students to answer: astronauts, spacecraft, the moon and so on. Then ask students to work in groups of four. Try to think out more related words like: earth, scientists, stars, space shuttle, sun, planet, universe, space station, air, space and so on.
astronaut
spacecraft
…
(设计说明:这个环节的设置旨在培养学生的自主学习、合作学习与发散思维的能力。学生在观看录像之后,说出的单词,并尝试联想相关词汇,这有利于学生发散思维能力的培养。假设涉及未学过的词汇,学生可以通过小组互助合作查找出来,改变了由老师教,学生学的传统的单词教学的模式。学生通过合作探究,自学新的知识,假设在反响中出现错误,老师可适当纠正。这些都为下面的听力环节解决了语言上可能出现的困难。)
2. Ask students to answer some questions about this video.
①. How did the astronauts go to the moon
②. How many spacecrafts has America sent to the moon by now
③. Have they discovered life on the moon
④. Have the scientists sent spacecrafts to Mars yet
⑤. Have they discovered life on Mars yet
设计说明:此环节可以帮助学生更深入地了解人类登月的历史。最后的两个问题,很自然的将讨论的话题由登月过渡到火星探索方面,由此引出了接下来的内容,起到承上启下的衔接作用。另外,这些问题的设置很自然的引出该堂课的重点句型:Have they …yet Yes, they have just / already…. No, not yet. / No, they haven’t yet.)
Step 2 Listening (Activities 1 & 2)
1. Tell students to listen to a piece of news about the travel mission to Mars and find the answer to the question “Have they discovered life on Mars yet〞 and finish Activity 1: Listen and number the words as you hear them.
2. Listen again and finish Activity 2: Check the true sentences.
(设计说明:本活动为听力根本能力训练,是一种听力输入理解活动。听力的相关内容对火星探索方案作了简单的介绍,为学生能更好的理解下一环节中的对话内容作了铺垫。)
Step 3 Listening and reading (Activities 3, 4, 5)
1. Tell students Da Ming’s friend Tony has made a model of a space station, and now they are talking about the model. Ask students to listen and read the dialogues, then try to answer three questions: ①. Has the spacecraft to Mars arrived yet
②. Have many astronauts been to the moon recently
③. How do the astronauts go back to the earth from the space station
2. Ask students to read the dialogue again and finish Activities 4 and 5.
3. Students read after the tape and then act out the dialogue.
(设计说明:通过这一环节的学习,学生们对火星探索方案的了解更为透彻了。而朗读与表演对话那么能使教学内容得到进一步的稳固与提高。)
Step 4 Tasks (Activity 6)
1. Show students a video and some pictures of space stations, and introduce the basic structures of a space station. Then ask students to discuss in groups of four to
