⑦在我看来, 探索太空是值得的。As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space.Step 10 Writing---draftRecently, students in our class have had heated a discussion on whether space is worth exploring. Students hold different ideas about it.30% of us think space exploration is not worthwhile. They think space is too far away from us and our daily life and is a waste of money. And the money spent on space exploration can be used to solve the earth’s problems such as starvation and pollution.On the other hand,70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot from it,such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. What’s more,with further space research,we may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day. Also,space research will enable us to find new sources to solve the problem of energy shortages on the earth.As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space. Not only can it promote the development of society but also enrich our life. Step 11 Pair workExchange drafts with a partner.

Evidence for this is that she refused to accept the reward money because she felt that it had not been earned. 3 Is it common for people to do what Chen did?It depends on the culture. In some countries it is quite common to return money that has been found. In other countries, people believe "Finders are keepers!" 4 How did Wang Zheng feel about the return of his money?He must have been very happy and relieved to have gotten his money back. We know this because he thanked Chen repeatedly and even offered her a reward.5 Why did Ma Dongbao tell Wang about Chen's family?He must have had great sympathy for Chen and her daughter and wanted to help them.'We know this because he arranged help for them. 6 How did the news reporter feel about Chen's actions?The news reporter felt that it showed that money wasn't the most important thing in life. We know this because the reporter told us that this is what Chen believes. and then said, “that's a great attitude to take."
Everybody wants to get wealth.In today’s material world,making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money,they can buy nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood. With money they can own luxurious cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.But is wealth the only road to happiness? Not really. There are many things in the world, which are beyond the means of money, such as friendship, love, health and knowledge. People are so preoccupied with struggling for money that they have no time or would not take the time to form or maintain friendship. What happiness can they feel living as lonely miserable creatures without love or friends in the world even if they accumulate tremendous wealth?In my opinion, people can’t do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will add to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word,you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.Step 8 Homework4 students in a group, one acts Roderick, one Oliver, one servant and the fourth one acts Henry Adams, then listen to the tape, pay more attention to the difference between American English and British English in pronunciation, stress, tone.

1. In Picture 1 and Picture 2, where do you think they are from? How do you know?From their wearings, we can know they are from ethnic minority of China--- Miao and Dong.Picture 1, they are playing their traditional instrument lusheng in their traditional costumes.Picture 2. the girls are Miao because they wear their traditional costumes and silver accessory.2. In Picture 3, can you find which village it is? What time is it in the picture?It is Dong village. It is at night. Step 2 While-listeningJustin met a new friend while traveling in Guizhou. Listen to their conversation and complete the summaries below.Part 1Justin and Wu Yue watched some Miao people play the lusheng. The instrument has a history of over 3,000 years and it is even mentioned in the oldest collection of Chinese poetry. Then they watched the lusheng dance. Justin wanted to buy some hand-made silver/traditional accessories as souvenirs. He was told that the price will depend on the percentage of silver. Part 2They will go to a pretty Dong minority village called Zhaoxing. they will see the drum towers and the wind and rain bridges. They may also see a performance of the Grand Song of the Dong people.Step 3 Post-listening---TalkingWork in groups. Imagine Justin is telling some friends about his trip to Guizhou. One of you is Justin and the rest of you are his friends. Ask Justin questions about his trip and experience. The following expressions may help you.
The themes of this part are “Talk about how to become an astronaut” and “Talk about life in space”. As Neil Armstrong said “Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand. Space is difficult for human to reach, therefore, humans are full of wonders about it. However, if wanting to achieve the dream of reaching the Moon, some of our human should work hard to be an astronaut at first. Part A(Talk about how to become an astronaut) is a radio interview in a radio studio, where the host asked the Chinese astronauts about his story how to become an astronaut. Yang Liwei told his dreamed to be an astronaut since childhood. Then he worked hard to get into college at 22. The next 10 years, he gradually became an experienced pilot. At the same time, to be an astronaut, he had to study hard English, science and astronomy and trained hard to keep in good physical and mental health and to practise using space equipment. Part B (Talk about life in space) is also an interview with the astronaut Brown, who is back on the earth. The host Max asked about his space life, such as his emotion about going back the earth, the eating, shower, brushing, hobbies and his work. Part A and Part B are interviews. So expressing curiosity about the guests’ past life is a communicative skill, which students should be guided to learn.1. Students can get detailed information about how Yang Liwei became an astronaut and Max’s space life.2. Students learn to proper listening strategy to get detailed information---listening for numbers and taking notes.3. Students can learn related sentences or phrases to express their curiosity like “ I wish to know...” “I’d love to know...”4. Students can learn more about the space and astronauts, even be interested in working hard to be an astronaut

一、说教材(一)教材简析《假分数化成整数或带分数》是小学数学五年级(下册)第六单元中的内容。本节内容安排了两个例题。这部分内容是在学生掌握了假分数的意义后,进一步学习把假分数化成整数或带分数,有利于以后进行分数计算打下坚实的基础。(二)教学目标根据教材编排特点,我确定以下教学目标:1、知道带分数是假分数,是整数与真分数合成的数。2、会把假分数化成整数或带分数。3、使学生经历假分数化成整数或带分数的探索过程,进一步发展数感。4、培养良好的学习习惯,树立学好数学的信心。(三)教学重、难点会把假分数化成整数或带分数。二、说教法、学法通过这一环节的教学,把假分数化成整数或带分数时,先要让学生根据假分数的含义进行思考。在这个基础上,再启发学生根据分数与除法的关系计算出结果,并把用不同方法求得的结果进行比较,认识到每种方法都是有道理的。
自主探究法:教学中强调以学生为主体,强调学生参与知识的形成过程,始终做到为学生提供充足的学习素材、创设充分学习的空间、时间,让学生自主探究,体验知识形成的过程,培养主动探究的能力。观察法:例1观察物体教学中的观察是很好的学习方法。例如,教学例1时,观察目的明确。教师通过让学生观察长方体物体学会从不同角度观察物体的方法。这一安排不仅给学生独立思考的机会,而且教给学生观察的思维方法。四、说教学程序在提出问题中,引发学生思考;在自主探索中,激发学生创新思维;在展示交流中,感受学生的个性;在总结陈述中,体验成功的乐趣;在联想记忆中进一步发挥学生的创造才能。在设计这节课时,我在尊重教材的基础上,力求体现新课标的新理念、新思想,导学案中设计了以下几个教学环节:
一、教材分析《1亿有多大?》是人教版新教材小学四年级数学第七册第一单元内容。教材在数概念的教学中,十分重视数感的培养。让学生通过对具体数量的感知和体验,帮助学生理解数的意义,建立数感。但由于1亿这个数太大,学生很难结合具体的量获得直观感受。因此在“大数的认识”这一单元后,安排这个综合应用,旨在使学生通过探究活动,经历猜想、实验、推理和对照的过程,利用可想像的素材充分感受1亿这个数有多大。根据上述教材分析,考虑到学生已有的认知结构心理特征,制定如下教学目标:二、教学目标1、通过“称一称”“数一数”“排一排”的实践活动,让学生从不同的角度感受一亿有大,并能结合实际,以具体的事物来表达对一亿大小的感受2、培养学生学习数学的兴趣和解决实际问题的能力,并在活动中增强主动参与和乐于合作的意识,培养勤俭节约的优良品德。
这样让学生的想象建立在一定的表象基础上,不是凭空去想像。学生经历了猜测、分析推理,最后再实物验证的过程。同时,发展了学生的空间想像力和思维能力。)我继续追问:你们能不能想出一个好办法让大家知道这究竟是什么物体吗?这一富有挑战性的问题,激发了学生积极主动的去思维。从而探究出解决问题的方法是还要知道另一个面或两个面的形状。2、有了练习八第2题做铺垫,再小组合作完成39页“做一做”就很容易了,这样也体现了知识出现的层次性。)为了帮助学生把零散的知识进行归纳梳理,同时培养学生从不同角度欣赏他人的良好心态。接下来我对应用部分进行了小结:我们通过观察发现从同一个方向观察不同形状的立体图形,得到的形状也可能是相同的。因此,我们不能只根据一个方向看到的形状就确定是什么立体图形,只有把不同方向看到的形状进行综合,才能进行正确的判断。我们要全面了解一件事物或一个人也要懂得从不同的角度去观察、思考,不能片面的看待。
(这一环节由学生熟知的典型事例入手,让学生感受到数学与生活的密切联系。把用数描述事物和用图描述事物整合在一起,使学生体会用图描述事物直观性的同时,建立数与形之间的联系,发展抽象思维。让学生通过自主探究、合作交流的学习方式来突破本节课的教学重点,鼓励学生说出自己的意见,并且通过多元化的评价激发学生的学习兴趣。)(三)及时练习课本103页练一练第一题让学生自主完成,填充空白统计图。提示学生标注名称和数据。(这一环节让学生体会数学在生活中的应用)(四)拓展延伸。观察两幅扇形统计图,回答问题。(这一环节给学生充分讨论交流的时间,让学生在讨论中互相补充,在讨论中不断完整自己的知识。让学生加深对扇形统计图的理解,理解单位一未知,无法根据百分比判断部分量的大小)(五)总结评价:
1、创设情境,激趣导入。通过有趣的机器人引出学生对几何体的初步感知。使学生的注意力马上集中起来,学习的兴趣被激发,学生强烈渴望进入下面的学习。2、我接着请同学们动手分一分,使学生初步认识长方体、正方体、圆柱、球,知道它们的名称。并用已有的生活经验给几何体命名,再一次调动了大部分学生的学习兴致。3、游戏“我说你摸”“搭一撘”的目的,是为了让学生由实物抽象出形状图形,培养学生抽象能力,在由形状说出生活中是这种形状的实物的练习活动。游戏,不仅可以激发学生的学习兴趣,也可进一步培养学生的空间观念。并能感受复杂物体的形状与简单几何体之间的联系。4、内容小结,巩固新知通过这节课的学习,和学生一起回顾这节课我们认识了哪些物体。既是学生对这节课知识的自我整理,同时又考查学生对知识的掌握程度。也是对学生言语表达能力的培养。
