精品文档Module 4 CarnivalI. 教学内容分析本模块的主题是狂欢节。

以西方的几种主要传统节日作为导入，接着通过各种活动详细介绍了狂欢节的历史、发展、种类及人们的活动、饮食、服饰和习俗。

其中有关食物和节日的词汇，和表达喜好和厌恶的句型又可以引申到中国传统节日和习俗，有益于培养学生的跨文化意识。

Introduction 部分设计以西方的五种主要传统节日（Carnival, Holi, Halloween, Christmas, Thanksgiving Day）作为导入，让学生通过图片做配对练习了解西方的节日习俗，激发学生对西方节日的好奇心，达到导入整个模块的效果。

外研版高中英语Book5 Module4 Carnival (Reading) 教学设计一、整体设计思路、指导依据说明指导依据：在高中英语学习中，词汇是一个不可忽视的重要元素。

语言学家认为，“各种语言学习活动归根结底都是学习词汇的活动，是词汇在听、说、读、写、译等形式中的练习和应用”。

离开了词汇，语言就失去了实际意义；离开词汇语言就无法表达思想。

词汇学习直接影响英语语言学习的效果。

在中学英语阅读教学中，学生碰到的重要问题就是词汇阻碍，不少学生因词汇量小，看不懂句子或文章，而丧失了英语阅读的兴趣。

学生的词汇量越大，对词汇理解得越深刻，其阅读也越广泛，视野就越开阔。

目前的高中学生由于没有找到适合自己的词汇学习方法和策略，在词汇学习方面存在诸多问题。

有些词读不准，有些词甚至根本不会读，导致在拼写时错误百出，遗忘率极高。

更别说正确、熟练地运用了。

这就造成了学生无法运用英语进行正确恰当的听说读写，使他们感到英语学习困难重重。

教师不仅有责任教授学生词汇知识，而且应该研究探讨词汇教学的方法。

二、教学背景分析教材内容分析：本节阅读课是第四模块的第二课时，主要向大家介绍一个很著名的外国节日――狂欢节。

这个话题与我们的日常生活和学生们感兴趣的外国文化有着很大的联系，对此话题的学习与讨论有益于提高学生学习英语的兴趣，通过日常教学使学生们掌握有关节日的新词汇并使他们了解其它国家的文化背景和社会风貌，为学生以后的阅读和学习做好知识储备。

学生情况分析：本节课的教学对象是高二年级的学生。

他们在听、说、读、写和口语表达等方面都有了一定的基础。

虽然课前已经让学生们通过各种渠道搜集了有关狂欢节的信息，学生对本节课要讨论的话题也有了一定的了解，但他们对与这一话题相关的英语词汇量不足，要用英语进行思维和表达还是有一定难度的。

因此，这节阅读课中的词汇处理就显得格外重要。

三、教学目标分析（一）语言技能目标1. 提高提取和筛选信息并进行重组的能力。

高中英语外研版必修5 Module 4 CarnivalThe Magic of the Mask 阅读课教学设计一、课标分析 Curriculum Standard Analysis《普通高中英语课程标准》指出：高中阶段的阅读课教学目的是“培养阅读策略，培养语感，特别强调培养学生在阅读过程中获取和处理信息的水平。

”它还明确要求高中学生要具备以下阅读技能———即：略读( skimming) 、找读( scanning) 、预测上下文、理解大意、分清文章中的事实和观点、猜测词义、推理判断、了解重要细节、理解文章结构、理解图表信息、理解指代关系、理解逻辑关系、理解作者意图、评价阅读内容。

我认为如果教师能有计划、分步骤地对学生实行阅读理解技能的训练和阅读水平的培养,那么阅读课的教学便能够收到事半功倍的效果。

二、教材分析 Teaching Material Analysis(一)内容分析本模块以Carnival为话题，介绍狂欢节的历史、发展、种类及人们的活动、饮食和习俗，并由此引导学生联想、讨论中国的节日。

经过对教材内容的分析和重组，本模块可我分五课时教授：第一课时 Introduction, Reading and Vocabulary (1)第二课时 Reading and Vocabulary (2), Cultural Corner第三课时Learning to learn, Vocabulary and Listening, Everyday English第四课时 Grammar, Function, Reading and Writing第五课时 Workbook, Module File本节课是此模块的第一课时，是一节阅读课，在本模块的教学过程中起着重要的作用。

As we all know, China, our great motherland, has a long history. So we have various festivals today. Look at the screen, please. What do you think of after you read the word “festivals”? Why do you think so?Ss: We like festivals very much. That’s because we can get together to eat, drink and have fun with each other. Festivals let us enjoy life, be proud of our customs and forget our daily life.Step II Speaking 1T: A relay race （接力赛）•Student 1: My favorite festival is…, which usually falls on + 日期+ of the solar/lunar calendar.(fall on 降临在)•Student 2: It is on this special day that people… (强调句It is +被强调部分+that…)•Student 3: The reason why I prefer this festival is that not only can I … but also I …S3: That’s also called the Lantern Festival. It’s the 15th day of the first lunar month, when we eat special sweet dumplings called Yuanxiao and enjoy displayed lanterns. And we enjoy beautiful fireworks, too.T: You have done a good job. What are the other festivals?S4: International Women’s Day. It is on March 8.S5: Arbor Day on March 12th.S6: International Labor Day and Chinese Youth Day.S7: International Children’s Day.T: Yes. Do you know other Chinese festivals?S8: Army Day is on August 1st and Teachers’ Day is on September 10th.S9: National Day on October 1st.T: Excellent work! Those are mostly the legal holidays in our country. There are also some traditional Chinese festivals celebrated according to the lunar calendar. Do you know some other traditional festivals? List some of them, please.S10: Qingming Festival in memory of the dead or the heroes on April the fifth.T: It’s called Tomb Sweeping Festival. Another one?S11: Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in memory of the great poet - Qu Yuan. S12: Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month.T: You’ve done a good job, boys and girls! You have named so many festivals. I’m proud of you for youT: Ok! We have got lots of information about Chinese festivals. Would you like to know something about some foreign festivals?Ss: Yes! Of course!T: What’s the most important festival in western countries?Ss: Christmas!T: That’s right! Please look at the pictures on page 31, and then match the festivals with the descriptions. If you know some information about the festivals, please talk about them with your partners.S1: Christmas is both a legal and religious holiday, which observes the anniversary of the birth of Jesus. All states and all those of the Christian faith celebrate this holiday on which people give each other presents and best wishes while the children believe that the presents come from Father Christmas. So I think the first description can be matched with the festival of Christmas.S2: Yes. I can’t agree with you more. I guess Holi is a festival with color, which marks the beginning of spring in India. That’s because the people in the picture are colored heavily. But I know no more about it. T: That’s Ok. The festival of Holi is celebrated on the day after the full moon in early March every year. Apart from the usual fun with colored powder and water, Holi is marked by vibrant processions that are accompanied by folk songs, dances and a general sense of abandoned vitality. Who’d like to say something else about other festivals and their descriptions?S3: There is so much delicious food on Thanksgiving Day, so it must be when Americans remember the hard times when they first arrived in the country. T: The food is turkey(火鸡), corn and pumpkin pies(南瓜派). Thanksgiving Day is a traditional American festival on the fourth Thursday in November, when families get together and have a big dinner. How about the next one?S4: Judging from the pictures, there are two festivals for which people love wearing special clothes. So I’m not sure which one is suitable for the description.S5: Have you paid attention to the fifth description? I’m sure Halloween(万圣节) is the festival at the end of October, when “ghosts” come out, for it’s said that witches (女巫) ride through the air on broomstick. T: Yes! Halloween is a time to have fun and it comes on October 31st. It’s one of the most favorite holidays for children. Parties are very popular, too. People wear scary clothes and masks(面具), for example, dress up like a witch(巫婆).S6: Then for Carnival people love wearing special clothes and it seems that people usually dress up and wear a mask at this festival.T: That’s true. People walk on the street wearing masks, doing what they want to do without being recognized. Look at the picture lower in this page. What is the person wearing?S7: The person is wearing so special clothes and a mask that it’s hard to say it is male or female.T: Have you ever dressed up in special clothes?Ss: No. At the Spring Festival we usually wear beautiful and new clothes but there are no special clothes. Maybe the Chinese minorities wear special clothes on their festivals.T: Yes. As we all know, different countries have different culture and social customs. Then what do you usually do during festivals? Let’s come to part four of this page, and please check out the thing you do.S8: We eat special food at different festivals. For example, on Mid-Autumn Day we usually eat moon cakes and other delicious food, Zongzi is the traditional food for the Dragon Boat Festival and jiaozi for the Spring Festival.S9: We give and receive gifts, have holidays from school and enjoy ourselves with friends and family at the Spring Festivals. On Lantern Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival we take part in different traditional ceremonies, such as enjoying displayed lanterns, rowing dragon boats and so on. S10: We sometimes dance and listen to music at festivals, but usually we enjoy all kinds of entertainment programs.T: I am very proud of you because you know so much about festivals at home and abroad.Step IV Read and repeatMy favorite festival is the spring festival, which falls on January 1st of the lunar calendar. It is on this special day that my family get together and have a big dinner. My father will put up couplets while I will set off firecrackers. The reason why I prefer this festival is that not only can I get the lucky money on this day but also I can enjoy a long and relaxing holiday.Step V Summary and homeworkT: Boys and girls you did very well today. We have talked about festivals around the world, so I believe all of us have broadened our horizon. Here is your homework today: If you have a chance to decide a newholiday that is most likely to be necessary in your opinion, please create a new holiday and give your reasons.。
