Unit 1 Wheres your pen pal from? 一、单元教材分析 本单元的中心话题是pen pals。主要语言功能项目是talk about countries, cities and languages。语法结构为 Wherefrom; Wherelive and what languagespeak。先以Activity1复习语言与国家的配对练习入手，Activity2a, 2b一个综合的听力训练来展示学生的听力能力，并以听力内容为基础，通过Activity2c中假设的两人对话操练来培养学生的交流能力，同时也引导学生多沟通与多交流。Activity3a是一篇email形式的阅读文章，并有相关问题由学生在阅读后进行回答Activity3b 是根据提供的信息进行填空的写作练习，Activity3c是一篇模仿写作，让学生给自己的笔友写一封关于本人信息的email。我在各课时教学中设计各种各样的小活动，通过Discussion，Classifying，Guessing等不同方式让学生掌握本单元的知识点，用学会的知识与外国的笔友自如的交谈是学习本单元的目的。二、教学目标分析1、语言目标a. 重点词汇： Countries: Canada, China, France, Japan, the United States, Singapore, Australia, The United Kingdom, Paris.

At last finish 2a on page2. 通过这个环节，教师完成本单元的新单词的导入，通过提供给学生每个国家的地图，让学生猜出国家名称及相应的城市，学生能有意识的记忆国家及城市的名称，并为整节课任务的完成奠定最基本的词汇基础。在看图片时学生能够做到精神集中，并能激发学生的学习兴趣。Step2.Practice(1c&2d)Teacher says: I goes to many places during the Spring Festival, so I have many pen pals from different countries. One of my pen pals is Sandy. She is from the UK. She lives in London. Ask the students: Do you have a pen pal? Some say yes, some say no.
