教学过程:(一)导入:课前放《爱的奉献》歌曲,同时不断播放一些有关“爱”的主题的图片,渲染一种情感氛围。师说:同学们,谁能说说这组图片的主题应该是什么?生(七嘴八舌):母爱,不对是亲情……是友情、还有人与人互相帮助……那组军人图片是说保卫国家,应该是爱国……那徐本禹和感动中国呢?…………生答:是关于爱的方面师说:不错,是关于爱的方面。那么同学们,今天就以“爱的奉献”为话题,来写一篇议论文如何?生答:老师,还是写记叙文吧。生答:就是,要不议论文写出来也象记叙文。师问:为什么?生答:老师,这个话题太有话说了,一举例子就收不住了,怎么看怎么象记叙文。生答:就是,再用一点形容词,就更象了。众人乐。师说:那么同学们谁能告诉我,为什么会出现这种问题?一生小声说:还不是我们笨,不会写。师说:不是笨,也不是不会写,你们想为什么记叙文就会写,一到议论文就不会了,那是因为同学们没有明白议论文中的记叙与记叙文中的记叙有什么不同,所以一写起议论文中的记叙,还是按照记叙文的写法写作,这自然就不行了。那好,今天我们就从如何写议论文中的记叙讲起。
四.设计反思我在设计本课时,希望通过情境的创设充分再现历史,并利用多媒体辅助教学,破重点、化难点,让学生主动参与到学习过程中,从而突破狭小的教室空间,让学生真正做到感知历史,立足现实,展望未来。自主,交流、合作、探究是课程改革中着力倡导的新型学习方式。课堂教学中如何开展小组合作的探究学习存在着很多困难,首先是课堂教学时间有限,如何体现面向全体,给每个学生以机会?再次,历史问题的讨论只能依托于史料才能使讨论不沦为空谈,课堂上通过网络提供大量的史料(文字、图片或其他),势必不能有充分时间让学生阅读分析。如何解决这些问题呢?措施一:要形成较固定的历史学习合作小组。选定一位同学担任组长,负责协调措施二:要设置有利于学生探究的问题情境措施三:要把课堂教学与课外学习结合起来。在课前就印发相关的材料,或引导学生去查阅相关的资料,让学生有个充分的阅读、思考、交流的时间,是保证课堂上小组交流能成功实现的一个前提
(一)教材的地位与作用本节描述地球所处的宇宙环境包括两部分内容,一是能在天体系统中确定地球所在位置,二是结合太阳燃烧的稳定状态和大行星运轨道特征,说明地球存在生命的宇宙环境特征。这里需要补充太阳大小长期稳定的燃烧保证地球表面长期保持适宜的温度,有利生命进化;大小行星公转各行其道,保证地球宇宙环境的安全。这两点宜在讨论地球是特殊的行星时补充。说明地球是太阳系中一颗既普通又特殊的行星要通过 3引导学生从图文资料中找出地球与其他行星在运动特征和结构特征上的共性以及轨道位置和自身条件上的特性。运动特征共性包括同向性、共面性和近圆性;结构特征主要是通过与类地行星比较得出地球在质量和体积方面不具特殊性。地球上存在生命主要是因为日地距离适中,所以有适合的温度;因为地球质量和体积适中,所以能吸引住大气形成厚度、压力适合的大气层;因为地球存在岩浆活动,所以有地球内部氢氧分异化合的水汽溢出形成海洋。
首先引导回顾细胞质内各个细胞器的分工协作、产生分泌蛋白的过程;同时思考:为什么这些细胞器可以这样有条不紊的密切协作?这中间有没有专门起协调和控制作用的部门?从而导入本节内容。通过学生小组讨论及师生共同分析“资料分析”中的4个实验,总结出细胞核的功能,即细胞核是遗传信息库,控制细胞代谢和遗传的功能。在此基础上,向学生举出克隆羊多莉的实例,加强理解。设问:那么细胞核为什么能成为细胞代谢和遗传的控制中心?要弄清这个问题,我们必须从细胞核的结构中寻找答案,从而引出细胞的结构。在这部分,引导学生思考以下几个问题:(1)细胞核能控制细胞的遗传,说明其应该有什么物质?(2)含有DNA的结构如线粒体、叶绿体,它们的外面都有什么相同的结构?(3)细胞核能控制细胞,肯定能与外界联系,如何能办到?(4)学习RNA的分布时,RNA主要分布在细胞质,少量还分布在哪里呢?
二、教学目标:1、知识与能力(1)了解我国古代冶金、制瓷、丝织业发展的基本情况;(2)了解中国古代手工业享誉世界的史实,培养学生的民族自信心。2、过程与方法(1)通过大量的历史图片,指导学生欣赏一些精湛的手工业艺术品,提高学生探究古代手工业的兴趣;(2)运用历史材料引导学生归纳古代手工业产品的基本特征。3、情感态度与价值观:通过本课教学,使学生充分地感受到我国古代人民的聪明与才智,认识到古代许多手工业品具有较高的艺术价值,以及在世界上的领先地位和对世界文明的影响,增强民族自豪感。
4.That was an experience that frightened everyone. →That was _____________________. 答案:1. taking 2. being discussed 3. in the reading room 4. a frightening experienceStep 6 The meaning and function of V-ing as the predicative动词-ing形式作表语,它通常位于系动词后面,用以说明主语“是什么”或“怎么样”一种表示主语的特质、特征和状态, 其作用相当于形容词; 另一种具体说明主语的内容, 即主语等同于表语, 两者可互换。The music they are playing sounds so exciting. 他们演奏的音乐听起来令人激动。The result is disappointing. 结果令人失望。Our job is playing all kinds of music. 我们的工作就是演奏各种音乐。Seeing is believing. 眼见为实。Step 7 Practice1. It is ________(amaze) that the boy is able to solve the problem so quickly.2. Buying a car is simply _______(waste) money. 3. Please stop making the noise—it’s getting ________(annoy). 4. complete the passage with the appropriate -ing form.La Tomatina is a festival that takes place in the Spanish town Bunol every August. I think many food festivals are __________ because people are just eating. however, this festival is _________ because people don't actually eat the tomatoes. Instead, they throw them at each other! the number of people ________ part in this tomato fight, can reach up to 20,000, and it is a very __________ fight that lasts for a whole hour. The _______ thing is how clean Bunol is after the tomatoes are washed away after the fight. this is because the juice form tomatoes is really good for making surfaces clean!答案:1. amazing 2. wasting 3. annoying4. boring interesting taking exciting amazing
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.

Discuss these questions in groups.Q1: Have you ever been to a place that has a diverse culture ? What do you think about the culture diversity ?One culturally diverse place that I have been to is Harbin, the capital city of Heilongjiang Province. I went there last year with my family to see the Ice and Snow Festival, and I was amazed at how the culture as different to most other Chinese cities. There is a big Russian influence there, with beautiful Russian architecture and lots of interesting restaurants. I learnt that Harbin is called “the Oriental Moscow” and that many Russians settled there to help build the railway over 100 years ago.Q2: What are the benefits and challenges of cultural diversity ?The benefits: People are able to experience a wide variety of cultures, making their lives more interesting, and it can deepen the feelings for our national culture, it is also helpful for us to learn about other outstanding culture, which helps improve the ability to respect others. The challenges: People may have trouble communicating or understanding each other, and it may lead to disappearance of some civilizations and even make some people think “The western moon is rounder than his own.”Step 7 Post reading---RetellComplete the passage according to the text.Today, I arrived back in San Francisco, and it feels good (1) _____(be) back in the city again.

新知探究前面我们研究了两类变化率问题:一类是物理学中的问题,涉及平均速度和瞬时速度;另一类是几何学中的问题,涉及割线斜率和切线斜率。这两类问题来自不同的学科领域,但在解决问题时,都采用了由“平均变化率”逼近“瞬时变化率”的思想方法;问题的答案也是一样的表示形式。下面我们用上述思想方法研究更一般的问题。探究1: 对于函数y=f(x) ,设自变量x从x_0变化到x_0+ ?x ,相应地,函数值y就从f(x_0)变化到f(〖x+x〗_0) 。这时, x的变化量为?x,y的变化量为?y=f(x_0+?x)-f(x_0)我们把比值?y/?x,即?y/?x=(f(x_0+?x)-f(x_0)" " )/?x叫做函数从x_0到x_0+?x的平均变化率。1.导数的概念如果当Δx→0时,平均变化率ΔyΔx无限趋近于一个确定的值,即ΔyΔx有极限,则称y=f (x)在x=x0处____,并把这个________叫做y=f (x)在x=x0处的导数(也称为__________),记作f ′(x0)或________,即
新知探究国际象棋起源于古代印度.相传国王要奖赏国际象棋的发明者,问他想要什么.发明者说:“请在棋盘的第1个格子里放上1颗麦粒,第2个格子里放上2颗麦粒,第3个格子里放上4颗麦粒,依次类推,每个格子里放的麦粒都是前一个格子里放的麦粒数的2倍,直到第64个格子.请给我足够的麦粒以实现上述要求.”国王觉得这个要求不高,就欣然同意了.假定千粒麦粒的质量为40克,据查,2016--2017年度世界年度小麦产量约为7.5亿吨,根据以上数据,判断国王是否能实现他的诺言.问题1:每个格子里放的麦粒数可以构成一个数列,请判断分析这个数列是否是等比数列?并写出这个等比数列的通项公式.是等比数列,首项是1,公比是2,共64项. 通项公式为〖a_n=2〗^(n-1)问题2:请将发明者的要求表述成数学问题.
我们知道数列是一种特殊的函数,在函数的研究中,我们在理解了函数的一般概念,了解了函数变化规律的研究内容(如单调性,奇偶性等)后,通过研究基本初等函数不仅加深了对函数的理解,而且掌握了幂函数,指数函数,对数函数,三角函数等非常有用的函数模型。类似地,在了解了数列的一般概念后,我们要研究一些具有特殊变化规律的数列,建立它们的通项公式和前n项和公式,并应用它们解决实际问题和数学问题,从中感受数学模型的现实意义与应用,下面,我们从一类取值规律比较简单的数列入手。新知探究1.北京天坛圜丘坛,的地面有十板布置,最中间是圆形的天心石,围绕天心石的是9圈扇环形的石板,从内到外各圈的示板数依次为9,18,27,36,45,54,63,72,81 ①2.S,M,L,XL,XXL,XXXL型号的女装上对应的尺码分别是38,40,42,44,46,48 ②3.测量某地垂直地面方向上海拔500米以下的大气温度,得到从距离地面20米起每升高100米处的大气温度(单位℃)依次为25,24,23,22,21 ③

The topic of this part is “Discover the reasons for festivals and celebrations.The Listening & Speaking & Talking part aims at talking about the experiences and feelings or emotions about the festivals and celebrations. This section aims at detecting the reason why the people celebrate the festivals, the time, the places, the types and the way of celebrations. It also explains why some traditions in the old celebrations are disappearing, like the firecrackers in the big cities and some new things are appearing like the prosperity of business or commerce. 1. Students can talk about what festivals they know and the reasons and the way of celebrating them.2. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.3. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them. 4. Students can have the international awareness about the festivals.1. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.2. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them.Step 1 Lead in---Small talkWhat festival do you like best ? Why ?I like the Spring Festivals because I can set off the fireworks, receive the lucky money and enjoy the Gala with my families.Step 2 Before reading---Pair workWhy do people celebrate different festivals ?The Spring Festivals is to celebrate the end of winter and the coming of spring and new life.The Mid-autumn Day is to celebrate the harvest and admire the moon.
