He was such a stubborn businessman that he didn't permit anybody to disagree with him. He thought his marketing plan was perfect, but on the contrary, it was not and it failed. Obviously, it was his fault because he did not listen to other people's advice .

新课标人教版高中英语教学设计课题:Book3 Unit3 The Million Pound Bank note Period3 Grammar: Noun clauses as the objectsTeaching DesignBook3 Unit3 The Million Pound Bank-note Period 3 Grammar: Noun clauses as the objects Analyzing the teaching material and the studentsThe title of this unit is The Million Pound Bank-note, which is a play adapted from Mark Twain’s novel. This lesson is the third period after learning and acting the first part of the play. Although the students find it quite interesting and easier to study the play, they may still have lots of troubles in grammar. Especially for the students in the countryside, they are not good at English and lacking in confidence. Therefore, the main purpose of teaching is to make the students interested and self-confident in learning the grammar. What’s more, it’s known that the study of noun clauses as objects is one of the most important and difficult grammar items in English. So the teaching materials and activities should be selected and designed properly in order to help the students participate in the lesson more actively and efficiently.Teaching objectives1.Knowledge goalsa.Learn the basic concepts and characteristics of noun clauses.b.Learn the general usages of objective clauses.2. Ability goalsa. Enable the students to distinguish different types of noun clauses.b. Train and improve the students’ abilities of exploring and solving the problems.c. Help the students learn how to use the noun clauses as objects correctly.3. Emotion goalsa. Stimulate the students’ interests in grammar study.b. Develop students’ sense of cooperative learning.c. Improve the students’ ability of exploring the problems.Teaching important points1. Guide the students to explore the problems cooperatively.2. Encourage the students to discover the rules of objective clauses.3. Help the students understand the usages of subordinate conjunctions Teaching difficult points1. How to help the students grasp the basic rules of objective clauses.2. How to use the subordinate conjunctions correctly.Teaching methods1.Task-based teaching and learning.2.Cooperative learning: (presenting and exploring the problems)3.Testing by playing a game.Teaching aids:Multi-media, guided learning plan, cards used in the gameTeaching procedures:Step 1.

Preparing lessons &self-studyCheck the students’ prevision by asking them questions. Then Show some sample sentences and ask students to point out the objective clauses. Finish the exercises in Individual Study and encourage the students to come up with the problems they don’t understand. In this part, students will have a good understanding of the noun clauses, esp. the categories and word order of the objective clauses.Step 4. Researching cooperatively& answering questionsLet students read through the guided learning plan. And make sure they work in groups to share what they will learn in this part. Encourage them to have a discussion to list their questions. After that, ask students to present their questions one by one. Other groups should record and think them over. At last, the volunteers from other groups take turns to explain their understanding. The students can also report what they learn from thepaper if they couldn’t find out the problems.The teacher should guide the students to think over and discuss with their partners how subordinate conjunctions are used in these situations. At the same time encourage the Ss to sum up the usages of noun clauses as objects.Step5. Testing in classActivity: playing a gameLet the students cooperate with group members to have a heated discussion about some cards with words on them. Then put the cards into a right order, and check if they get the correct sentence. Next, stick the sentences on the blackboard. Other students try to judge whether those sentences are correct or not. The purposes of this activity are to check whether the students have a good study of the objective clauses as well as to stimulate students’ interests in learning grammar.Step 6: Summing and chewingThe teacher should ask the students what they have learnt in this class and pick some volunteers to share their learning.Step 7: Evaluation:Evaluation from teacher: check whether the students have achieved the learning aims.Evaluation to the groups: let the students pick the winner of this class, which will get the highest marksSelf-evaluation: let students score themselves according to the evaluation form.Step 8: HomeworkBecause the short holiday is coming, the students are asked to write a composition about an unforgettable trip.
