一. 教学背景分析
1.学生情况分析
本单元的设计与实施是建立在学生经过高一上半学期新教材学习基础之上。学生已经逐步的适应了在活动与任务中学习英语以及如何处理语言知识与活动开展的关系。并且,他们也已经形成并培养了一定的小组合作学习及自主学习的能力。
2. 单元背景分析
随着科学技术的发展,各种各样新的发明和发现都层出不穷。生活在这样一个知识爆炸的年代,学生们更应用心去体会并感受科技和发明创造者给生活带来的变化,进而能联想到他们平时所学的学科及知识,并用英语为媒介进行知识的整合与串联。同时从另一个角度来说,科技进步的同时,我们的社会也产生了各种各样的矛盾与争论,因此如何正确的看待或处理这些问题,也成为广大学生应该了解并掌握的知识。
二.教学目标分析
1. 语言知识
词汇:学习并使用一些与science 和scientists有关的词汇。
语法:进一步了解一词多义现象与合成词的构成。
功能:学习如何就某一事物给予别人指导与说明。
话题:掌握有关实验说明的话题表达以及如何从正反两方面对某一话题进行分析讨论。
2. 语言技能
听:在听懂教师向学生讲述实验中注意事项基础上,继续学习并强化捕捉特定信息的能力,以及确定全文主要话题的概括能力。
说:应能在了解一定的现代科技发明基础上,思考并学习如何对一种新的事物进行描述。同时能与他人进行交流,叙述事物的利与弊端。
读:强化略读、查读等阅读微技能,训练通过寻找关键词,主题句等方式更快速并准确的确定文章的段落大意,理清文章的总体框架与脉络。继续运用已经掌握的基本猜词技巧猜测部分单词,并在上下文体验中感受某些佳句给读者带来的深层含义。
写:学习在对事物进行理性思考的基础上,运用恰当的句型与词汇描述对事物正反面的不同观点,同时更应注重掌握一些必要的过渡词增加此类写作的条理性与层次感,并应熟悉议论性作文的基本写作框架。
3. 情感态度与文化意识
(1).进一步培养小组合作学习的能力,通过调查、采访、讨论等活动完成任务,取长补短,加强团体协作意识。
(2).引导学生用英语进行不同学科特点的思考,体会学科之间的联系与区别。通过话题启发学生积极思考,调动学生的学习兴趣。
(3).指导学生用批判的思维去接受新的事物,增强他们的辩论意识与能力。
(4).意识到科技工作的艰苦以及所必需的个人品质与素质,鼓励学生在学习过程中的创新精神与实践能力。
4. 学习策略
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,并鼓励学生增加与教师和同学交流、合作,继续培养正确的自我评价与相互评价的习惯,从而总结交流学习所得,进一步形成有效的学习方法。并指导学生把英语学习从课堂延伸到课外,发挥已掌握的使用工具书,查找资料、上网等方式增加用英语思维与表达的能力,了解实验对于科学研究的重要性,树立正确的向上的学习态度,形成具有批判性的看问题习惯。
三. 教学内容分析
本单元的中心话题是science and scientists。话题依附于听力、对话、阅读与写作等语言载体中。本单元的话题内容与学生的日常学习有着密切的关系,应该说是以英语为媒体让学生表达他们对平时理化生等理科课程,特别是相关实验,所想到及感受到的内容。因此,尽管本单元的话题对学生而言有着一定的难度,但却有体现出了以学生为中心,贴近学生生活而又富有时代气息的特点。
Warming up设计了四幅与学生的理科课程有关的图片,学生通过对日常熟悉的相干实验工具及场地的识别,展开相关学科特点与学习的讨论。同时在此基础上,要求学生们在Listening部分能熟悉某些实验室的规则及注意事项,掌握如何给予别人指导与说明,并能抓住文章的中心话题,捕捉相关细节内容,回答有关的问题。
Speaking则是一个极富时代气息的讨论练习。要求学生们能对现在热门的尖端科技有所了解,(练习中提供了诸如Maglev train, cloning, nuclear energy, computer 与 space flight等内容)然后能就这些新的科学技术与工具进行理性的辨证的思考,既能感受到它们给我们的生活带来的巨大利益,同时也能发现其中所存在的不足与弊端,并能通过讨论、对话等形式发表自己的观点与想法。这一部分也应该是本单元写作内容的一个铺垫。
Reading讲述的是科学家Franklin著名的风筝实验,从而证明Lighting and electricity are the same的故事。学生在理解文章的基础上,能充分感受到实验对于科学工作的重要性及科学家是如何获得事业上的成功的。同时能落实材料中所出现的一些单词与短语的使用。
Language Study是在本单元词汇学习的基础上,让学生进一步了解并掌握一定的构词法。主要是兼类词、一词多义现象及合成词的构成。
Integrating skills 通过学生对科学家是否应利用动物进行实验,从而达到发明新产品现象的讨论,理性的从正反两个方面看待这一问题。同时在阅读、思考与讨论的基础上,写下一篇阐明自己观点、立场与看法的短文。

(5).指导学生通过各种渠道如图书馆、网络等资源查找资料。
五、教学原则
(1)以任务型教学 (Task-based Language Teaching)作为课堂教学设计之理念,具体采用情景教学法(Situational Approach),交际教学法(Communicative Approach),整体语言教学法(Whole Language Teaching)等教学方法。从一定程度上说,人们使用语言是为了完成各种各样的任务,而任务型的教学活动就是让学习者通过运用所学语言来完成各种各样的交际活动。学习者通过表达、沟通、交涉、解释、询问等各种语言形式来学习和掌握语言,实现目标,感受成功。
(2)在教学中突出交际性,注重读写的实用性;同时适时进行情感与策略调整,以形成积极的学习态度,促进语言实际运用能力的提高。
(3)坚持“教师为主导,学生为主体,任务为基础”的教学原则,在课堂教学的不同环节教师应扮演自身作为“设计者,研究者,组织者,促进者,协调者”的角色。
(4)贯彻“教中学,学中用”策略,真正使学生学以致用。
六. 教材与任务安排
本单元计划为六课时:Warming up & Listening (1课时), Speaking (1课时) ,Reading (2课时), Grammar (1课时), Integrating skills(1课时)。同时本单元安排的三大任务是(1).为学校理化生实验室拟订英语实验室规则。并以墙报的形式进行比较后,选出其中最佳的规则,然后上报给学校。(2).科学家创造发明故事比赛。要求学生在课外收集国内外发明家的故事,经过整理后,能以故事、小品、对话等不同形式表演出来。在全班同学 的共同评判下选出最佳故事及选手。(3).当地热点争论问题讨论。搜集本地目前人们所争论的一些问题,并能采集到不同的人对于这一问题的不同看法与见解,并能进行思考后,发表自己的立场与观点。然后写一封书信给当地相应的管理机构或政府部门。

Homework:
Read the following passage with the questions below.
Flossie Wong-Staal
An interview with Emilio Alvarez and Ann Crystal Angeles
Flossie Wong-staal stays on the move. She moved with her family from China to Hong Kong when she was five. Later she moved to the United States to attend college. Now Wong-Staal is on the move to clone the virus that is believed to cause AIDS and to figure out how the molecules(分子)of the virus are arranged. Wang-Staal heads a team of scientists at the university of California, San Diego. They are trying to save lives by making an AIDS vaccine(疫苗).
Emilio: How did you decide that you wanted to become scientist?
Wong-Staal: At first my teachers made the decision. In high school they said I should study science because of my grades. By the time I graduated from college, there were so many exciting discoveries being made in molecular biology that I wanted to specialize it.
Emilio: What was your high school like?
Wong-Staal: I went to an all-girl high school in Hong Kong. I felt very free at an all-girl school, and I have fond memories of that time.
Anne Crystal: Would you explain your research?
Wong- Staal: Basically me colleagues and I are trying to understand how the AIDS virus is replicated, and then to develop ways to interrupt the replication process, By “replication” I mean the way in which the virus gets inside a cell and uses that cell as a sort of factory to make many many copies of itself.
Anne Crystal: Do you always enjoy your job in the laboratory?
Wong-Staal: Yes,, I think it’s very exciting work. Of course it’s not every day that you make a discovery and have that kind of reward. But when it does happen, it’s a real thrill. It’s exciting to know that you brought about knowledge that didn’t exist before.
Anne Crystal: What would you tell students who would like to become research scientists?
Wong- Staal: Stay with your interest, and get good information about the education you will need. I also have warning: Things are not always easy. There are frustrations in research; sometimes things don’t go the way you’d hoped. But when you make a discovery or a contribution to science, it becomes worthwhile. And I want to encourage all young people to be interested in science: We need you !
1. As you read, guess the meaning of the boldface words from the surroundings words and sentences.
2. Look back over the reading to find the following information:
(1). Where Wong-Staal was born: (2). What she is studying in her research:
(3). What she was the first person to do:
(4). This article is primarily about______________.
A. the scientist Wong- Staal B. making an AIDS vaccine
C. preventing the spread of disease
(5). Which question is NOT answered in the reading?
A. What college did Wong- Staal attend B. What type of biology did she specialize in
C. Where does she work now
(6). You can infer that Wong- Staal
A. didn’t want to become a scientist B. is happy she becomes a research scientist
C. plans to retire soon
3. Write about the following two questions in your journal.
(1). Wong- Staal says that there are frustrations in research. What do you think she means? What frustrations might there be in doing research? How would you deal with these frustrations?
(2). Wong- Staal says that here teachers decided she should become a scientist. Do you think teachers should make career choices for their students? Why or why not?

Period 5 Language study
Learning Aims
Enable students to have a better knowledge of the rules of word-formation.
Learning Procedures
Step 1 Warming up
Daily report: Show your opinions about the two problems mentioned in the reading passage.
Individual work
Show a tongue twister to students:
If one doctor doctors another doctor, does the doctor who doctors the doctor doctor the doctor the way the doctor he is doctoring? Or does he doctor the doctor the way the doctor who doctors doctors?
Practise the tongue twister for some times and see who can say it correctly and fast.
Q: Do all “doctors” in this sentence have the same meaning?
Conclusion: The meaning of the same word varies in different sentences and so does the gender.
Step 2 Reading and thinking
1). Pair work
Read the following sentences to distinguish the different meanings of the same word.
How much do you charge for repairing my CD player?
The frightened animal charged into the toy shop.
It usually takes one hour to get my call phone fully charged.
The man was charged for being irresponsible for the job in the court.
We gave her the charge of the house when we were away for holiday.

He was surprise to see so many crosses marked in his Maths homework.
This fruit is a cross between an apple an d appear.
The river was too deep to cross.
The two main roads cross in the center of the town.
He crossed his name off the list.
2). Group work
Discuss in groups to think about more words of this kind and make sentences according to the different meanings. Then read it out and the other students try to guess the meaning of the same word in different situations.
Step 3 Imagination
Group work
Show some words on the screen ( such as bank, tie, sharp, tear) . Discuss in groups to make a short story, paying great attention to the different meanings and gender of the same word. Write it down on a card and share it with the whole class. See which group does the best job.
Step 4 Compound words
Sometimes if we put two different words together, we can make a new one. These words are called “Compound words”. Show some examples:
Blackboard is compounded with two words:
Part 1= a kind of deep color Part 2= a piece of thin wood
Show the students the formulation: Part 1 + Part 2 = ?
1). Class work
The teacher provide explanations to two single words. Ask the students to combine them together and then guess what the new word is. Repeat it for several groups.
Part 1= part of the body used when we talk Part 2= a round thing to play with
Part 1= water of ten degrees below zero Part 2= medicine to put on your skin
Part 1= a liquid you need to make tea
Part 2= moving in snow with wooden thing tied to your shoes
2). Group work
Discuss to think of some some compound words in groups and then do the same game with the partners.
3) Class work
Have a competition about word guessing and see which team can give the most wonderful performance.
Two students to make a team with one facing the blackboard and the other facing all the students. The teacher lists some compound words on the screen. The students facing the Bb explains the two parts of the compound word as quickly and exactly as possible, so that the other one can join the two parts together to guess which word is mentioned. The game is limited in two minutes and then they can find out which team have guessed more words than the others.
Step 5 Post-learning
Read the story about “Franklin’s famous kite experiment” again , and try to find out all the similar words as those learned in this class.
Homework:
Task 1. Design an exercise to match the words in Column A with those in Column B to make some compound words. Exchange the exercises in class.
Task 2. Prepare to make up a story about the relationship of humans and animals in groups and then act the short play out.
