Puzzles-in-Geography教学设计

1、Unit 2 Reading  Puzzles in Geography一教材分析“Puzzles in geography”, 作为一篇阅读理解课文，从历史、地理 、文化、政治等不同角度向读者介绍了英国。本单元是高二英语上册的第五单元，整册书共十个单元，教学内容贴近现代生活，富有较强的时代气息，教材涉及社会和自然科学，文化知识面很广：科技、媒体、建筑、诗歌、地理、急救、环保等，在教学活动的设计上对学生提出了更高的要求，特别是在听力和阅读方面。第五单元涉及的是地理知识，中心话题是“不列颠群岛”，整个单元的热身、阅读等语言知识和语言技能

2、项目都是围绕该话题展开的。单元的第一篇课文标题是The British Isles，与本单元的话题相同，是单元教学中的重点，一般分两节课进行，我要说的是阅读训练课。作为一篇说明文，课文从总体上介绍了不列颠群岛的地理位置（location）、气候(climate)、文化(culture)、历史（history)、语言（language）等概况。二学情分析作为高二学生，他们已掌握了阅读的基本技能，但不能很好的将之付诸实践。他们可以从简单的文章中获取主要信息，但是很少触及外国资料。本节内容的学习，将会使学生逐渐形成一种跨文化交际意识，同时也将提高他们的阅读技能。三教学目标分析1. 让学生在阅读的过程

3、中抓住主要信息和相关信息；2. 培养和训练学生的阅读技能，如略读，跳读；3.培养学生的团队精神；4. 学习西方国家知识，拓宽学生视野。5. 尊重别国文化。四. 教学重、难点分析本节内容的重点是：使学生从总体和细节上掌握英国信息；学生使用阅读技能有效的进行阅读并获取有用信息。本节的教学难点是：如何提高学生的快速阅读能力；学生如何很好的根据上下文猜测新单词的意思。五教法分析在本节内容教学中，我将使用PPT把课程主要内容、英国的地图、英国主要河流的地图、英国国旗图片展示出来，以激发学生的学习兴趣，在教与学的过程中吸引学生用英语来学习。 根据交际教学法和任务教学法，在课堂中，我会给学生布置一定的任务，

4、并分成小组鼓励他们用英语进行讨论。六学法分析1）认知策略:指导学生运用已学会的抓重点、做记号、摘笔记等方式，对所学内容进行整理与归纳。2）调控策略:培养自我评价与相互评价的习惯，鼓励学生增加与教师和同学交流学习英语的体会和经验，学会科学评价自己的学习行为与学习效果，进一步形成有效的学习方法,树立积极向上的学习态度。3）交际策略：创设有意义的情景和任务活动，引导学生通过四人一小组，进行合作学习，让他们围绕课堂任务分工合作，相互探讨、相互交流，从而获得知识、技能和情感体验，变被动学习为主动学习。4) 资源策略：布置任务，引导学生主动拓宽英语学习的渠道，即通过不同信息渠道（internet, new

5、spaper,dictionary, magazines）查找所需信息，把英语学习从课堂延伸到课外。七 教学过程我将教学过程分成了四个环节：阅读前；阅读中；阅读后；布置作业。VI. Teaching procedure （教学过程）:1. Pre-reading （阅读前）Lead in：a. Show the Ss some pictures about the UK.b.
