Lesson Plan InterpretationBook1 Unit14 Text1 Be careful with firesBy XuLiwen from Financial and Economical Secondary School of ChangSha Hello, ladies and gentleman. Its my honor to talk about my teaching ideas here. My topic is “Be careful with fires”taken from Unit14 of Book1. Id like to explain my ways of teaching and the reasons from the following six aspects: analysis of the teaching material, teaching methods, the ways of study, teaching procedure, blackboard design and teaching assessment. Part1 Analysis of the Teaching Material(I) Status and function1, This lesson is a reading material. It plays a key role in this unit. It can make the Ss understand the main idea of this unit “ Reminding and warning” 2, The Ss can improve their reading ability by learning it. But Some listening and speaking should be given too. Because we learn English in order to communicate with others better.3, The passage is very short and there are not so many new words and expressions. It suits the Ss in the Vocational Technical school. 4, Such topic is related to our daily life. Most of the Ss have some experiences on fires. So it is helpful to raise learning interests of the Ss and it is good for their communication. (II) Teaching aims and demands1, Knowledge objects: To get the general idea of the text.To learn how to use the new words and phrases2, Ability objects: To retell the textTo improve reading abilityTo develop the Ss communicative ability (When they read the text , they communicate with the writer. When they discuss, they communicate with partners. When they answer the questions, they communicate with the teachers. When they make a survey , they also communicate with others ). 3, Moral objects: To get the Ss to know how to flee their lives To enable the Ss to love all the life in the world and all the public property. and have the consciousness of safety. To encourage them to deal with the fires unlike this “Mend the fold after a sheep is lost”(III)Teaching important and difficult points:1, To retell the text in their own words.2, To discuss how to prevent the fires(IV) Teaching aids:A multimedia computer, a tape recorder and a projectorPart2 My teaching theories and methods My teaching theories: As a teacher in vocational technical school, I try my best to develop the Ss interests. Because we all know “Interest is the best teacher.” I give them many visual aids and encourage them to perform before the Bb. I make the Ss the real masters in class while the teacher only acts as a director. In this lesson, many teaching methods are employed such as reading, listening, discussing, cooperation, competition and communication.Competition is often used in my class. Because most of the Ss in the vocational technical school have had so many failures in their study or in their life. They are short of sense of success. They are always not self-confident. They also dont like English. In my class, I give them some simple and interesting tasks to compete between boys and girls or among the groups. They will think that it is not only a competition but also a chance to show their advantages. They will try their best to win it. The Ss communicative ability will be improved during the process. Therefore they will be more self-confident and be interested in English.Language points and new words are given during the communication. The Ss can not only remember the meanings of them but also know how to use them.Teaching methods:Communicative approachTask-based approachWhole language approach Part3 The ways of study 1, To teach the Ss how to finish the tasks during the given time2, To teach the Ss how to communicate with others in English3, To teach the Ss how to conclude the reading skills4, To teach the Ss how to combine the material with our real life.5, To teach the Ss how to cooperate with othersPart4 Teaching proceduresStep1 Warming up Duty report (sing an English song, give a weather report, tell a story or read a passage)Step2 Lead-inFree talk with Ss. Is it cold today? ( also use some body language) Its winter now. If you feel cold, What will you imagine first? The Ss must answer “ Fire” Then, I will say fire can warm us, but it is dangerous for us too. Let the Ss watch a video (A big fire is on. Its horrific.) and answer two questions? Or let the Ss watch a picture like this.1, What do you think of this fire?2, If you were in that building, what would you do?Ask the Ss to answer these two questions. Maybe the Ss will say they will put out fires by fire extinguisher and by spraying water on them. Maybe they will say they will call Tel. No.119I point out some new words and phrases, such as fire extinguisher, spray, put out fires, read them and make sentences orally.Then I will say what you said sounds reasonable, any more ideas?
