高中英语必修四unit3教案5
本教学设计在新课程教学理念的指导下，力求在培养学生的语言知识、知识技能、情感态度、学习策略和文化意识等素养的基础上发展学生综合运用语言的能力，使学生通过观察、体验、探究等主动学习的方法优化英语学习方法，充分发挥自己的学习潜能，形成有效的学习策略。
1. 开展学生活动，发挥主体作用
新课程强调要充分发挥学生在教学过程中的主体作用。本课设计遵循以学生为主体，教师为主导这一教学原则，创设角色扮演情景、激烈讨论提出建议，让学生限度地参与教学过程，尊重学生的主体地位，充分发挥学生在学习过程中的主动性、积极性、创造性，使课堂充满活力。
2. 实施情景教学，统合三维目标
本课设计从教学需要出发，创设情景，进行情景设问、讨论，激起学生的情感体验，激活学生思维，帮助学生迅速、正确地理解和接受知识，并在学习过程中培养其积极进取的科学的人生观及价值观，较好地落实了三维目标。而三维目标是相辅相成、相互渗透的，所以在情景教学的过程中，知识的落实、能力的培养、情感态度价值观的渗透交融在一起，实现了三维目标的和谐与统一。
3. 转变学习方式，增强教学效果
新课程要求提倡自主、合作、探究的学习方式，发挥学生的主体性、能动性和独立性，本课设计通过自学课本，小组讨论，综合分析，角色扮演等活动， 为学生自主学习、合作学习、探究学习提供了空间，使学生体验了自主之乐，合作之趣，探究之悦，促进了学生知识的构建与运用，能力的培养和提高，情感体验和态度、价值观的形成，增强了教学效果。
4. 运用问题教学，启发学生思维
本课设计按照诱思探究理论要求，遵循学生的认知规律，引导学生去发现问题、分析问题和解决问题，从而掌握知识，形成能力，培养品质。通过对文章分析的由浅入深，由易到难，循序渐进，引导学生结合历史现状和教材信息，发挥想象，活化语言，从而达到综合运用英语进行交际的目的。有利于培养学生的思维能力，激发学生的创新精神。
本教学设计贯穿了新的教学理念，体现了课程改革的鲜明特色，在教学内容的重新调整、教材的合理处理、教学思路的设计等方面作了尝试性的突破与创新，具有较强的实践性和操作性。
【教材分析】
本单元教学内容为人教版新课标Module 5 Unit 3 Life in the future。本单元的中心话题是“未来生活”，教材内容为学生提供了想象的空间，旨在培养学生预测未来的能力，通过对现实生活与未来生活的对比，唤醒学生把握现在，珍惜现在，爱护环境，保护自然的意识。
第一篇Reading文章主要讲述主人公Li Qiang在时空旅行前、时空旅行中及时空旅行后的所见所想。第二篇则主要记叙了Li Qiang在太空站认识的两个非常特别的太空生物，并将两个生物的特征进行了对比。两篇阅读文章都是科幻型阅读，旨在唤起学生的想象力，培养学生对未来生活的预测。语法部分则延续了课文内容，通过作者对未来生活态度的讨论引出过去分词做状语及定语的用法，并以短文填空的形式来巩固文章生词的用法。听力部分则描绘了一个拥有高新科技的wonderland,表明了人类对美好生活的追求与幻想，并最终通过口语情景设置锻炼学生综合运用英语的能力与技巧，从而对未来生活进行更细致的预测。
考虑到各部分内容的内在联系，笔者结合教学实际将同一话题不同内容与形式的材料进行了重组，对教材内容、编排顺序等进行了调整、删减和补充，将整个单元设计成四个课时，丰富了教学内容和语言活动形式。
【学情分析】
1. 认知基础：高一学生基本上能用英语清晰地表达个人观点，准确地描绘
生活现象或表达个人情感，能用基本的词汇、句型对未来生活作出描绘与预测。
2. 心理特征：高中学生思想活跃，求知欲旺盛，学习态度明确，自我意识
发展迅速并趋向成熟，独立自主性强，有一定的道德修养及正确的价值观与审美观。
3. 学习能力：学生对过去分词的用法有基本的了解，其自主阅读与表达能力有一定的基础，具备良好的团体协作能力，并能进行有效成功的交流合作讨论。
【教学目标】
(1)知识与能力
学习与未来生活有关的词汇;能对本单元的生词猜测词义并能用英语释义基本单词;学习有关预测和猜测的表达方式以及过去分词作定语、状语的用法;能听懂关于对未来生活、环境的想象、猜测和思考的会话，想象未来生活可能存在的问题;能用英语简单地谈论未来生活，猜测未来的科技发展趋势;能阅读关于未来生活、未来世界以及外太空和外星人的英语文章;能够较好地发挥想象来描写未来生活和外星生物。
(2)过程与方法
通过网络或图书馆等途径查找搜集有关科学家对未来生活预测的资料，培养学生利用学习资源的策略;并且笔者结合教学实际对教材内容、编排顺序等进行了调整、删减和补充，将整个单元设计成四个课时。第一课时为Warming-up and Reading, 第二课时为Learning about language, 第三课时为Using language, 第四课时为Listening and speaking。着重培养学生学习运用词汇学习中的猜词策略，激发学生想象力，预测未来生活。
(3)情感态度与价值观
通过学习课文，使学生回顾历史，认识现在，展望未来，激发学生的想象力;提高环境保护，资源保护意识。通过讨论使学生了解中国和其他国家目前存在的社会问题以及科技发展方向，预测世界未来生活、环境的发展趋势。
【重点难点】
重点：
1.掌握有关描绘未来生活的词汇以及有关预测和猜测的表达方式。
2.通过对文章的学习，根据目前的现状预测未来的生活，提高环境保护、资源保护意识。
难点：

2.运用所学的词汇及句型写出具有一定想象力的短文。
【教学策略与手段】
1.采取多种教学方式，讲述法与讨论法相结合，启发式教学法与创设课堂思维情景相结合，接受式学习与探究式学习相结合。
2.以活动构建教学理论为指导，挖掘课程资源，利用图片、表格、多媒体等多种形式，师生互动，分组探究。
3.适时对学生的学习过程进行调控与激发，实现教学预设与动态生成的统一。
【教学准备】

【教学过程】
Period 1: Warming-up & Reading
Teaching Aims:
1. Learn some new words and expressions.
2. Improve the students’ reading skills.
3. Know the more advanced forms of transport in AD 3005 and the advantages and problems of life in the future.
Teaching Methods:
1. Inductive method
2. Pair work & group work
3. Competition
4. Illustration
5. Deductive Method
Step 1 Greetings and Lead-in
1.The teacher can start with daily greetings and try to lead in some words in this unit.
Q1: Where do you come from? Do you live in the downtown or in the countryside?
Do you live in a comfortable surrounding?
Is it a suitable location for people to live in?
What is it made of? (brick, stone, steel, glass, wood, plastic, bamboo, mud…).
2.Q2: No matter where you live, I am wondering how do you usually go to school? (by bike, by car, by bus…)
Bikes, cars, buses and so on can be used to carry people or things from one place to another place, and they are called vehicles. What other vehicles do you know?
carriage, ambulance, jeep, airbus, train, truck, motorcycle, fire engine, …
3.Now let’s take a look at the screen to learn about the development of all the means of transportation.
sedan chair – carriage – bicycle – motorcycle – car – train – aeroplane – space craft
4.Q3: What will the future means of transportation be like? (Time travel)
Well, today we are going to learn a text about time travel.
【设计说明】
由日常问候开启话题，通过提问学生家乡情况导入城镇生活，引出不同的建筑材料及交通工具中的生词;然后总结交通工具的发展历史，预测未来的交通方式，引出跨时空旅行，从而进入阅读文章的处理与学习。(由于考虑到Warming-up中的Transport与Houses, Villages,Towns, 以及Location of settlement的联系不大，可单独提出，因此将Transport的发展变化应用于课文的导入中，这样比较科学自然。)
Step 2 Skimming
1.The teacher will ask the students to predict the future life in various aspects as to inspire their imagination and predicting ability.
Q1：What will the future life be like?
2.The students are given several minutes to read through the text and try to find out the changes mentioned in the text.

time travel – transport – air quality – religion – clothing – eating – houses – towns
3.The teacher can ask the students to carry out a discussion about the changes.
Q3: Which changes are good and which are bad?
【设计说明】
猜测是培养学生阅读能力的方法之一，因此笔者首先提出问题引发学生思考，对未来生活的各个方面进行预测。其次通过快速阅读的方式，了解文章梗概，把握文章线索，找出文中对未来生活变化的描写，培养学生快速阅读的技巧与能力，并对未来生活变化的好坏进行小组讨论，培养集体协作精神。(由于Comprehending中关于未来生活变化好坏的讨论难度不大，考虑到整个设计的连贯性，将其提至快速阅读中，设置成小讨论，将学生说与读的能力更好地结合。)
Step 3 Reading for details
1.Before the journey
Q1: How many people are mentioned in the text? Who are they?
Q2: When did the writer write this letter? And to which year did he travel?
Q3: Why did Li Qiang travel to the year AD 3005?
Q4: What did Li Qiang suffer from?
Q5: How did Li Qiang feel? What makes him feel better?
Q6: Where did they arrive?
【设计说明】
通过几个特殊疑问词，提出以下问题，处理文章第一段。因本篇课文是一篇叙事故事，而记叙文时一般都包括事件发生的人物、时间、地点、事件、原因等关键要素，因此让学生通过阅读寻找上述要素，不仅让学生的阅读具有目的性，而且降低了阅读的难度。
2.During the journey
1) In the capsule:
Climb through the round opening -- comfortable seats -- calming drink -- lay relaxed -- we rose slowly from the ground -- complete the journey -- 1000 years later -- ?
2) Out of the capsule

2. “A large market”
Q4: What were people doing there?
Q5: What happened to Li Qiang?
3. A large building
Q6: What is a “time lag” flashback?
【设计说明】
按事件发生的先后顺序及地点转换顺序，处理文章细节，培养学生抓住文章线索来处理课文的能力。然后根据地点转移，自然地将“太空仓内”转向“太空仓外”，按照作者在太空仓外所处的三个不同地点Hovering carriage, a large market, a large building来处理文章第三段。
3.After the journey
(Arriving home, he showed me into a large bright, clean room.
Description of the house: brown floor, soft lighting, trees, leaves, computer screen, tables, chairs, green wall…
Q1: How did the author feel after visiting the special house?
Exhausted, I slid into bed and fell fast asleep.
【设计说明】
通过精读课文，了解文章细致内容，按照“时空旅行前，时空旅行中及时空旅行后”的时间线索来处理文章细节。“时空旅行中”又可按照“在太空仓内与在太空仓外”分析文章信息。在此过程中锻炼学生精读的阅读技巧，处理文章生词，并适当地引入几个过去分词做状语及定语的句子，为语法部分的讲解作个铺垫。
Step 4 Consolidation
1.Put the statements into correct order. ( C --- A --- D --- B )

3.A telephone interview with Li Qiang
Ask the students to discuss in group of six and raise as many questions to Li Qiang as possible. Some questions about the problems in future life are recommended.
【设计说明】
首先通过对文章故事情节的正常排序回顾文章梗概;其次通过Warming-up中过去、现在的房子、城镇及居住环境的比较来预测未来方的发展与变化;最后设置情景，进行角色扮演，模拟电话采访Li Qiang回顾整篇课文，引出本节课的作业与任务。全面地锻炼学生的总结概括能力以及团体协作的讨论能力。

3.Assignment: Object-designing
Design an object which can help you change the world for a better future
【设计说明】
通过角色扮演以及情景设置中引出未来生活中将会存在的问题，以此导出现在生活中存在的问题，由此自然地引出阅读课的任务----发明设计，以此激发学生的发明创造能力，唤醒学生保护自然、爱护环境的意识，学习中渗透道德教育，一举两得。

【设计说明】
通过设置讨论作者对未来生活持乐观还是悲观态度来复习并提升Reading内容，巩固学生对Reading全文线索的了解与掌握，并通过讨论找出含有过去分词用法的句子来支持各自的观点。(由于Reading中Comprehending部分中关于作者对未来生活所持有的态度的讨论跟语法部分联系紧密，故将其从Reading中剪切，转至语法中作为回顾阅读课，导入新课)完成语法练习后，学生对过去分词作状语和定语的用法有了一定的了解，然后教师将过去分词作状语和作定语的用法系统归纳如下：
过去分词作状语可以表示时间、条件、原因、让步、方式或伴随，有时在其前还可以带上连词，以示明确。
1. 作时间状语。 Once discovered, the enemies were completely wiped out.
2. 作原因状语 Moved by his words, I accepted his present.
3. 作条件状语 United we stand, divided we fail.
4. 作让步状语 Although tired, they continued to work.
5. 作方式或伴随状语 The teacher stood there, surrounded by many students.
注意：
1) 作状语的过去分词通常与句子的主语存在着被动关系，她所表示的动作通常和谓语动词属于同一时间范畴，也可表示先于谓语动词发生的动作。有时为了强调先发生的动作，也可用having been done.
e.g. Having been told many times, he can’t still remember it.
2). 过去分词的逻辑主语要跟主句的主语一致,否则不能用过去分词作状语,应用状语从句。
(误)Checked carefully, some spelling mistakes can be avoided.
(正)If the composition is checked carefully, some spelling mistakes can be avoided.
过去分词作定语或状语时，该分词及修饰成分相当一句定语或状语从句，变为定语从句或状语从句中，该从句应该具备两个特征：1)从句的主语和主句中的先行词一致;2)谓语动词为被动语态形式。
