Module7 My past life Unit 2 I was born in Quincy
教学设计
1、 教材分析： 
be my lady本节课是一节以过去的生活为话题的读写课。在整个的教学设计中，笔者主要采取的是“任务型教学法”，旨在指导学生在获取信息的过程中理解课文内容及写作框架并学会仿写自己的家乡的生活。本节课是以贝蒂的口吻讲述了她在美国的家乡昆西小镇的生活。这篇课文包含了地理、历史、社会和家庭等方面的内容。第一二段描述了昆西的社会生活，镇上有电影院、商店等，还出过两位总统。第三四段描述了贝蒂的家庭生活，我们可以读到贝蒂的家是什么样子，甚至能了解到她房间的装饰。最后一段描述了贝蒂与朋友的交往。
由于学生对这个单元的话题非常熟悉，笔者尽可能为学生们创设能够启发他们思维的多元化的教学环境。引导学生用There be…with…谈论自己的理想的生活谈论自己理想的房子、花园、家乡及家乡的历史。从理解贝蒂过去生活的表述到独立回忆自己的家乡的生活，加速了所学知识内化的过程，变语言知识为语言交际的工具。
二、教学目标
1. To get information from the reading material about Betty’s past life.
2. To understand the sentences with was or were in the passage.
3. To write a brief description about one’s past life.
三、学习重、难点：

四、教学过程与方法
Step1：Warming-up

操作：学生先不看书，教师用多媒体展示关于“house”的图片，让学生观察图片，展开对话活动或回答问题。学生讨论或回答的同时，教师展现新词汇。让学生开展“头脑风暴”
活动，尽可能多地列出与“house”有关的单词。可以分组开展比赛，比一比，看谁的词汇量大。
