人教版高中英语必修3Unit 3 The Million Pound Bank Note吕媛媛Good morning, judges. It’s my honor to be here to present my lesson. I’m the candidate …, applying for senior high school English teacher. The topic is “The Million Pound Bank Note” Now, I’ll begin my lessons.1. Analysis of teaching materialThe text I'm going to elaborate on is The million pound bank note. It is from Unit 3, book 3, published by PEP for senior high students.It is a reading text that introduces a play adapted from short story written by Mark Twain. In the play, two rich brothers make a bet whether a guy can survive a month in London with a million pound bank note.The genre of the text is play. It is the first time that students have read this kind of text and it is the only time it occurs in PEP text book. Therefore, the special structure and its ways of expressions are very important to understand.Teaching objectives:Knowledge and skill objectives:1. Get to know the meaning of key words "scene, narrator, penniless, wander, stare at, spot, passage, unpaid” by reading the play, try to appreciate the usage of these key words.2. Understand the writer Mark Twain's background information, humorous writing style and the basic structure of English play.Learning strategies:1. Make use of some reading strategies, such as skimming, scanning so as to get the plot of the story;2. Read the play under the teacher's guidance, understand the part of stage direction. Try to appreciate the charm of language of play. Get a deeper understanding of use of act, language to highlight character's emotion, social status and so on.Affects:Think about the relation between money and human nature. Help students to be aware of the positive values. Learn from Henry's outstanding quality, such as honesty, industry. One should realize his or her dreams by hardworking.Teaching important points:The general plot of the story and basic elements of a play.Teaching difficult points:How to appreciate the charm of play's language and understand the values reflected by the story.2. Analysis of teaching methodsI adopt communicative language teaching, task-based langauge teaching method. CLT is adopted through the whole class. In pre-reading stage, CLT helps to activate students' background information and prepares for the lesson well. Inwhile-reading stage, CLT facilitates students exchange their ideas while reading so as to learn in a cooperative way. In post-reading stage, CLT is combined with TBLT together to fulfill the task.I make use of TBLT to get students to write our novel with Henry Adams as the first-person narrator. By finishing this task, students can change their perspective of appreciating this play.3. Analysis of studentsStudents of senior high school have learnt exposition, news report and some other genres, but it's the first time they come across play. So they may be curious and willing to discover the new text.As students' critical thinking and independent thinking ability are improving at this stage, they are able to take part in more complexing activities. I will design some tasks so as to better meet their different requirements.4. Analysis of learning methods:In order to be in line with the notion of student-centeredness, I'd like to lead students combine cooperative learning and researched learning together.By doing so, students can improve their collaborative learning ability and better be aware of team work spirit in group work.I will also design a presentation part for students to report their opinions of the leading characters in the play, which arouses students' interests when they use the researched learning method.5. Teaching procedure:5.1. lead-inShows some different pictures of Mark Twain and ask students' impression of him. They may guess his occupation and characters. If necessary, I will provide some words related to human characters, such as cold-blooded, nice, warm-hearted, funny, and humorous.After their discussion, I may ask some of them share their ideas.5.2 Pre-readingPredictingAsk students to guess what a bet did the two old men make, what's in the envelope, does the young man in rags has something to do with the bet?【Purpose】By predicting the information of the play, students may feel very curious about the text, which reflects that teacher should play the role of a facilitator.5.3 While-reading方法二:1. Detailed readingAsk students to read the play carefully and fill in the chart of “Describe how Henry’s feelings changed”.Students work together in groups of 4 to fill in what Henry says or does and how he feels in different scenes.【purpose】Pay attention to Henry's stage direction, narrator part to feel the change of Henry.2. Discuss about their opinion of HenryI prepare some words describing people's character for students' reference. They can choose these words to support their opinions and share their ideas.These words could be careless, risky, hard-working, honest, direct, frank...【purpose】Students focus on the play's language again to find more sentences to support their opinions, and at the same time they get to know the characters of Henry by searching for the passage not by me.5.4 post-readingDebateI will design a task for students and they are divided into two groups to have a debate. Group A is for the idea that money is the source of happiness. Group B is forthe idea that money is not the source of happiness.I will choose some students as judges to assess their performance.Some standards may be as follows:Clear viewpoints; Logical evidence; the amount of evidenceAfter the debate, I will help students to conclude that money may be really important in life, but it can hardly bring us happiness if we don't earn it by ourselves.5.5 SummeryI will ask students to summarize their understanding of play, and their book list of this kind. When necessary, i will make supplement.5.6 HomeworkTo read more plays adapted from novel. I can give them some book lists for reference.6. Blackboard layoutMy blackboard layout reflects my teaching thought and teaching steps. In this form, reading for information and reading for appreciation can be shown. The title is the reading focus which can lead students to pay attention to the charm of play.That’s all for my presentation, thank you!。
