圆的标准方程教学设计人教A版高中数学选择性必修第一册
(1)几何法它是利用图形的几何性质,如圆的性质等,直接求出圆的圆心和半径,代入圆的标准方程,从而得到圆的标准方程.(2)待定系数法由三个独立条件得到三个方程,解方程组以得到圆的标准方程中三个参数,从而确定圆的标准方程.它是求圆的方程最常用的方法,一般步骤是:①设——设所求圆的方程为(x-a)2+(y-b)2=r2;②列——由已知条件,建立关于a,b,r的方程组;③解——解方程组,求出a,b,r;④代——将a,b,r代入所设方程,得所求圆的方程.跟踪训练1．已知△ABC的三个顶点坐标分别为A(0,5)，B(1，－2)，C(－3，－4)，求该三角形的外接圆的方程．[解] 法一：设所求圆的标准方程为(x－a)2＋(y－b)2＝r2.因为A(0,5)，B(1,－2)，C(－3,－4)都在圆上，所以它们的坐标都满足圆的标准方程，于是有?0－a?2＋?5－b?2＝r2，?1－a?2＋?－2－b?2＝r2，?－3－a?2＋?－4－b?2＝r2.解得a＝－3，b＝1，r＝5.故所求圆的标准方程是(x＋3)2＋(y－1)2＝25.
圆的一般方程教学设计人教A版高中数学选择性必修第一册
情境导学前面我们已讨论了圆的标准方程为(x-a)2+(y-b)2=r2,现将其展开可得：x2+y2-2ax-2bx+a2+b2-r2=0.可见,任何一个圆的方程都可以变形x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0的形式.请大家思考一下,形如x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0的方程表示的曲线是不是圆?下面我们来探讨这一方面的问题.探究新知例如,对于方程x^2+y^2-2x-4y+6=0,对其进行配方，得〖(x-1)〗^2+(〖y-2)〗^2=-1,因为任意一点的坐标 (x,y) 都不满足这个方程，所以这个方程不表示任何图形，所以形如x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0的方程不一定能通过恒等变换为圆的标准方程，这表明形如x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0的方程不一定是圆的方程.一、圆的一般方程（1）当D2+E2-4F>0时,方程x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0表示以(-D/2,-E/2)为圆心,1/2 √(D^2+E^2 "-" 4F)为半径的圆,将方程x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0，配方可得〖(x+D/2)〗^2+(〖y+E/2)〗^2=(D^2+E^2-4F)/4（2）当D2+E2-4F=0时,方程x2+y2+Dx+Ey+F=0，表示一个点(-D/2,-E/2)（3）当D2+E2-4F0);
直线的点斜式方程教学设计人教A版高中数学选择性必修第一册
【答案】B [由直线方程知直线斜率为3，令x＝0可得在y轴上的截距为y＝－3.故选B.]3．已知直线l1过点P(2,1)且与直线l2：y＝x＋1垂直，则l1的点斜式方程为________．【答案】y－1＝－(x－2) [直线l2的斜率k2＝1，故l1的斜率为－1，所以l1的点斜式方程为y－1＝－(x－2)．]4．已知两条直线y＝ax－2和y＝(2－a)x＋1互相平行，则a＝________. 【答案】1 [由题意得a＝2－a，解得a＝1.]5.无论k取何值,直线y-2=k(x+1)所过的定点是 . 【答案】(-1,2)6．直线l经过点P(3,4)，它的倾斜角是直线y＝3x＋3的倾斜角的2倍，求直线l的点斜式方程．【答案】直线y＝3x＋3的斜率k＝3，则其倾斜角α＝60°，所以直线l的倾斜角为120°.以直线l的斜率为k′＝tan 120°＝－3.所以直线l的点斜式方程为y－4＝－3(x－3)．
直线的两点式方程教学设计人教A版高中数学选择性必修第一册
解析：①过原点时，直线方程为y＝－34x.②直线不过原点时，可设其方程为xa＋ya＝1，∴4a＋－3a＝1，∴a＝1.∴直线方程为x＋y－1＝0.所以这样的直线有2条，选B.答案：B4.若点P(3,m)在过点A(2,-1),B(-3,4)的直线上,则m= . 解析:由两点式方程得,过A,B两点的直线方程为(y"-(-" 1")" )/(4"-(-" 1")" )=(x"-" 2)/("-" 3"-" 2),即x+y-1=0.又点P(3,m)在直线AB上,所以3+m-1=0,得m=-2.答案:-2 5.直线ax+by=1(ab≠0)与两坐标轴围成的三角形的面积是 . 解析:直线在两坐标轴上的截距分别为1/a 与 1/b,所以直线与坐标轴围成的三角形面积为1/(2"|" ab"|" ).答案:1/(2"|" ab"|" )6.已知三角形的三个顶点A(0,4)，B(－2,6)，C(－8,0)．(1)求三角形三边所在直线的方程；(2)求AC边上的垂直平分线的方程．解析(1)直线AB的方程为y－46－4＝x－0－2－0，整理得x＋y－4＝0；直线BC的方程为y－06－0＝x＋8－2＋8，整理得x－y＋8＝0；由截距式可知，直线AC的方程为x－8＋y4＝1，整理得x－2y＋8＝0.(2)线段AC的中点为D(－4,2)，直线AC的斜率为12，则AC边上的垂直平分线的斜率为－2，所以AC边的垂直平分线的方程为y－2＝－2(x＋4)，整理得2x＋y＋6＝0.

人教版新课标高中物理必修1速度变化快慢的描述─加速度说课稿2篇
本来比较速度变化的快慢也有两种方法：一种是比较相同时间内速度变化量的大小；另一种是比较发生相同的速度变化所需要的时间长短。但教材是将比较质点位置移动快慢的思想直接迁移过来，通过实例分析，使学生明白不同运动物体的速度变化快慢不同，表现在速度的变化与发生这个变化所用时间的比值不同，从而引入加速度的定义方法a=△v/△t。加速度表示速度的变化快慢，包括速度增加的快慢和减小的快慢，不能误认为只要有加速度的运动速度就一定是增加的。广义地讲，加速度不仅可以描述速度大小的变化快慢，而且也可以描述速度方向变化的快慢，本节教材只限定在直线运动的情景中讨论。加速度的矢量性是一个难点，教材是以与速度方向相同或是相反来表述加速度的矢量性的。如果以初速度方向为正方向，那么加速度就有正负之分，加速度的正负表示加速度的方向，不表示加速度的大小。

（三）合作交流能力提升教师：刚才我们通过实验了解了小车的速度是怎样随时间变化的，但实验中有一定的误差，请同学们讨论并说出可能存在哪些误差，造成误差的原因是什么？（每个实验小组的同学之间进行热烈的讨论）学生：测量出现误差。因为点间距离太小，测量长度时容易产生误差。教师：如何减小这个误差呢？学生：如果测量较长的距离，误差应该小一些。教师：应该采取什么办法？学生：应该取几个点之间的距离作为一个测量长度。教师：好，这就是常用的取“计数点”的方法。我们应该在纸带上每隔几个计时点取作一个计数点，进行编号。分别标为：0、1、2、3……，测各计数点到“0”的距离。以减小测量误差。教师：还有补充吗？学生1：我在坐标系中描点画的图象只集中在坐标原定附近，两条图象没有明显的分开。学生2：描出的几个点不严格的分布在一条直线上，还能画直线吗？

新人教版高中英语必修3Unit 5 The Value of Money-Reading and Thinking教学设计一
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.

新人教版高中英语必修3Unit 1 Festivals and Celebrations-Listening &Speaking＆Talking教学设计
The theme of this section is “Talk about festival activities and festival experiences”.Festival and holiday is a relaxing and interesting topic for students. This part talks about the topic from the daily life of students’. In the part A ---Listening and Speaking, there are three conversations among different speakers from three countries(Japan, Rio and China), where the speakers are participating in or going to participate in the festivals and celebrations. So listening for the relationship among them is a fundamental task. Actually, with the globalization and more international communication, it is normal for Chinese or foreigners to witness different festivals and celebrations in or out of China. In the Conversation 1, a foreign reporter is interviewing a Japanese young girl who just had participated in the ceremony of the Coming-of-Age Day on the street and asking her feeling about the ceremony and the afterwards activities. Conversation 2, Chinese girl Li Mei is witnessing the Rio Carnival for the first time, and her friend Carla gives her some advice on the costumes which enables her to match with the carnival to have a good time. Conversation 3, a Chinese guide is showing a group of foreign visitors around the Lantern Festival and introducing the customs of the festival to them. The three conversations have a strong vitality and insert the festival and cultural elements from different countries. So perceiving the festivals and cultures from different countries is the second task. At the same time, the scripts also insert the targeted grammar --- v-ing as attributive and predicative, which students can perceive and experience in a real context and make a road for the further study. That is the third task. In the Part B--- Listening and Talking, the theme is “Talk about festival experience”, which is the common topic in our daily conversations. During the conversation, Song Lin, a Chinese student, asked Canadian friend Max about how to spend Christmas. In the conversation, Song Lin talked about experience and the feelings during the Chinese Spring Festival, during which there are not only some enjoyable things but some unpleasant things. After the listening, perhaps students find there are some similarities between Christmas and the Chinese Spring Festival as there are some differences in the origins and celebrations. For example, people always visit friends and relatives, decorate their houses, have a big dinner together, chat and give presents to each other.
新人教版高中英语必修3Unit 1 Festivals and Celebrations-Reading for writing教学设计二
Step 3 Analyzing article structureActivity 31. Teachers raise questions to guide students to analyze the chapter structure of this diary and think about how to describe the festival experience. (1)What should be included in the opening/body/closing paragraph(s)?(2)How did the writer arrange his/her ideas?(3)What kind of interesting details did the writer describe?(4)How did the writer describe his/her feelings/emotions during the event?2. Students read and compare the three sentence patterns in activity 2. Try to rewrite the first paragraph of the diary with these three sentence patterns. After that, students exchange corrections with their partners. Such as:●This was my first time spending three days experiencing the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and it was an enjoyable and exciting experience. ●I'll never forget my experience at the Naadam Festival because it was my first time to watch the exciting Mongolian games of horse racing, wrestling, and archery so closely. ●I'll always remember my first experience at the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region because it was so amazing to spend three days witnessing a grand Mongolian ceremony. Step 4 Accumulation of statementsActivity 41. Ask the students to read the diary again. Look for sentences that express feelings and emotions, especially those with the -ing form and the past participle. Such as:● …horse racing, wrestling, and archery, which are all so exciting to watch. ● some amazing performances● I was surprised to see…● I was a little worried about. . . ● feeling really tiredOther emotional statements:●I absolutely enjoyed the archery, too, but the horse races were my favourite part. ●I'm finally back home now, feeling really tired, but celebrating Naadam with my friend was totally worth it. ●He invited me back for the winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and cat hot pot. I can’t wait!2. In addition to the use of the -ing form and the past participle, the teacher should guide the students in the appreciation of these statements, ask them to memorize them, and encourage them to use them reasonably in writing practice.

The topic of this part is “Write about your festival experience”.During the Listening and Speaking and Talking, students are just asked to say out their festival experiences such as the Spring Festival, Mid-autumn Day, but this part students will be asked to write down their own festival experiences. During the reading part, it introduces the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, which can give students a good example to imitate. Students not only learn the festival, but touch and feel the Inner Mongolian’s character, the spirit and cultural atmosphere, which can help students form the cultural awareness and learn to enjoy and value the diversity of Chinese culture.Concretely, the dairy tells the experience that the author spent the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region with his/her friend. The structure is clear. In the opening paragraph, it introduces the topic of the Naadam Festival and the whole feeling. Then it introduces the items of the festival like the ceremony, wrestling and horse racing. Finally, it summarizes this experience. Because this part is a travel journal, we must guide students pay more attention to these details: 1. use the first person. 2. use the past tense to tell the past thing and use the present or future tense to describe the scenery. 3. use the timeline to tell the development. 4. be careful for the author’s psychology, emotion and feeling, etc.1. Read quickly to get main idea; read carefully to get the detailed information about Naadam Festival.2. Learn the structure of the reading article and language.3. Write an article about a festival experience4. Learn to use the psychology, emotions and feeling in the writing.1. Write an article about a festival experience.2. Use the structure of the reading article and language.

Example:One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door found that he only had one dime(一角）left. He was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.Years later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.At last the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the woman’s room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words: “Paid in full with a glass of milk, Dr. Howard Kelly.” Tear of joy flooded her eyes.
