红星一中 魏新宇
good morning, ladies and gentlemen. it’s my great pleasure to be here to share my teaching ideas with all of you. the lesson i’m going to talk about is from unit11“could you please clean your room?” in go for it for the students of grade 8. i will analyze the lesson from six parts: analysis of teaching material, student analysis, teaching methods, studying ways, teaching steps and blackboard design.
part one : analysis of teaching material分析教材
first, i’d like to show my understanding of teaching material which includes
5 aspects.
1. status and function
the title of this unit is “could you please clean your room?”, and the topic is about chores. it mainly talks about making polite requests and asking for permissions. i divided this unit into five periods, and today i’d like to talk about the first period of this unit. if students can learn it well, it will be helpful for the students to learn the rest of this unit. besides, such topic is related to students’ daily life, so it can raise students’ learning interest and improve students’ spoken english. in this lesson, students will learn some new words and phrases about chores and learn to make polite requests and ask for permission by using modal verb “could”.
2. teaching aims教学目的
according to the teaching material and the new curriculum of english, i hope the following aims can be achieved in this lesson.
a knowledge aims知识目标
1) by the end of the class, students should master the key words and phrases of this lesson: do the chores, do the dishes, sweep the floor, etc
2) students should master the key structures:
could you please take out the trash?
sure
could i borrow the car?
sorry, but i need it. i have to go to a meeting.

2) to cultivate their ability of cooperating with others.
c emotional aims情感目标

3. leaning strategies学习策略
in my class, i’ll treat my students as real masters. i’ll adopt communication strategy to create situations to make the students participate and learn by doing.
key teaching points and difficult points教学重点和难点
next, i’d like to talk about the important points and difficult points,
4. the important points is教学重点
how to let the students master the key words and key structures.
as for difficult points,教学难点
it is how to use the key words and key structures in the real situation.
part two: student analysis学情分析
that’s all for my understanding of teaching material, now let’s focus on the student analysis.
as we know, the students in the junior school are very active, they want to show themselves but they can’t focus on the class for a long time. but some of them lose interest in learning english, so when i design my class, i have to pay attention to make my class lively and interesting and design more activities to attract their attention.
part three: teaching methods说教法
let’s come to the third part, teaching methods. to achieve the teaching
aims above, i adopt task—based teaching method and communicative approach in my class as for learning. since students are the real masters in my class, student-centered teaching method will be used in my class.
part four: studying ways学习方法
as for studying ways, students will work in pairs and groups to do the
cooperative learning and learn sentence structures by remember-drill-practice in the real situation.
part five : teaching steps教学步骤
then comes the most important part, teaching steps.
step 1 warming-up导入
i will lead in my class by having a free talk with students like this: what
do you usually do at home?
then i will introduce the question: do you often help your parents with the
chores?
it’s a natural way to introduce the content of this lesson and let them
start to touch what they’ re going to learn.
step 2 learn new words学习新单词
1. i will use cai to present some different chores to and ask students to answer this question: what is he/ she doing?
he is doing the dishes.
he is taking out the trash.
by using this way, i will teach them other phrases of chores. multimedia can make learning content more lively and specific. it can raise students’ learning interest.
2. then i will ask students to play a game. first, i will let the students write the phrases on a card. then turn it over. let their partner guess what they wrote by using the structure: do you want me to do the dishes?
this task is to consolidate what they learnt and let them enjoy the happiness of learning english.
step3 1a
i will get students to ask the questions like this : do you do the dishes
at home?
i will divide them into groups of four and let students to write down their
survey result and report it to the class.
this task is to consolidate the key phrases they learnt.
step4 presentation

read it aloud. it’s a natural way to introduce the key structures and lay
foundation for the next step.
then, i will ask students to complete activity 1b.before listening, i will
give students some skills on listening. i will tell them you needn’t understand
every sentence and you just need to pay attention to the chores and the answer. then i will play the tape. later check the answers with students. after that,
ask students turn to p90and read the listening material.

to the picture and let them work in pairs to practice their own conversation. while they practicing, i will walk around the classroom and offer help to them if necessary. according to their response, i will ask 5 pairs to present
their conversations. other students just listen and judge their performance. i’ll give 3 stars for the best pair.
step 6 2a. 2b
read the instructions to the students and make sure they know what to do.
i will tell them to pay attention to the key words. then i will play the tape
for three times. for the first time students only listen. for the second time,
they should complete 1a. for the third time, i will ask students to complete 2b. later, check the answers. after that, i will ask students to read the
listening material after the tape. i will cultivate their ability of
listening and let them be familiar with the key structures.

in this step, students are going to do a pair work. first, i will ask 2
students to read the sample conversation. then let them work in pairs to practice
their own conversations. this task is to train students’ ability of speaking
and using the key words and structures in the real situation.
