一、單元教材分析
本單元的中心話題是pen pals。主要語言功能項目是talk about countries, cities and languages。語法結構為 Where…from; Where…live and what language…speak。先以Activity1復習語言與國家的配對練習入手，Activity2a, 2b一個綜合的聽力訓練來展示學生的聽力能力，并以聽力內容為基礎，通過Activity2c中假設的兩人對話操練來培養(yǎng)學生的交流能力，同時也引導學生多溝通與多交流。Activity3a是一篇email形式的閱讀文章，并有相關問題由學生在閱讀后進行回答Activity3b 是根據提供的信息進行填空的寫作練習，Activity3c是一篇模仿寫作，讓學生給自己的筆友寫一封關于本人信息的email。我在各課時教學中設計各種各樣的小活動，通過Discussion，Classifying，Guessing等不同方式讓學生掌握本單元的知識點，用學會的知識與外國的筆友自如的交談是學習本單元的目的。

Then use the fresh pictures through computer to teach the students names of countries, cities. Divide the students into groups, then show the flags and pictures, let them guess the names of countries and cites. At last finish 2a on page2. 通過這個環(huán)節(jié)，教師完成本單元的新單詞的導入，通過提供給學生每個國家的地圖，讓學生猜出國家名稱及相應的城市，學生能有意識的記憶國家及城市的名稱，并為整節(jié)課任務的完成奠定基本的詞匯基礎。在看圖片時學生能夠做到精神集中，并能激發(fā)學生的學習興趣。
Step2.Practice(1c&2d)
①Teacher 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. Then go on with “Where is she/he from?” and “Where does she/he live? Ask some students to stand up and practice with teacher.
②With these sentence structures, ask students to practice them in pairs.

Step3.Listening comprehension(1b,2b&2c)
After practice, do a lot of listening exercises. Finish 1b on page 1 and 2b & 2c on page 2.在口頭練習的基礎上，在他們熟練掌握本課時句型以后再做這些聽力應該是不難了，這樣可以增加他們學習英語的信心。并且這些聽力材料的設計也是層層遞進，由易到難，充分考慮到了學生的層次，起到了很好的鞏固作用。
