Unit Two PoemsIntroduction: This unit introduces the students to several simple forms of poems. It takes a look at some poetic devices like rhythm, rhyme, repetition, sound patterns and imagery. It includes poem forms that English speakers have adopted from other countries. The poem forms in this unit include ones that students can use as models to create their own poems.The styles of English poems:1. Narrative poems: Epic史诗, Dramatic poems戏剧诗, Metrical tale故事诗, Ballad 民谣;2. Didactic poems说理诗;3. Clerihews打油诗;4. Parody模仿诗;5. Lyric抒情诗英语打油诗歌的规则: 1. 一首诗包含四句2. 第一句和第二句押韵, 第三局和第四句押韵3. 第一句如以人名结尾, 第二句以和人名押韵的词结尾.Nursery rhymes (摇篮诗): They are the first poems that children will hear. They are often sung. Children love to move and dance to nursery rhymes and songs because they have strong regular rhythms. They enjoy the rhymes and the way the nursery rhyme plays with sounds.List poems: A list poem is a list of things. It can have as many lines as the writer likes. Sometimes they have repetition in them and sometimes they have words that rhyme. When a list poem has rhyming words, it also has a regular rhythm.Cinquain poems: A Cinquain is made up of five lines and has the following structure. Line one: a noun that names the subject of the poem. Line two: two adjectives that describe the subject. Line three: three verbs ending with –ing that describe the subject’s actions. Line four: four words that give the writer’s opinion or feelings about the subject. Line five: a word that gives another name for the subject.Haiku poems: The haiku is a centuries-old form of Japanese poetry. It is made up 17 syllables and has the following structure: line one: 5 syllables; line two: 7 syllables; line three: 5 syllables. A haiku poem is almost like a photo or painting as it creates a strong imagine in very few words. It is often an observation of nature or of the changing season. It is a good idea to collect observations of nature for haiku. For example, leaves blowing in the wind, bees buzzing around flowers, ducks swimming in a pond, snow piling up against a door.Tang poems: when translated into English, Tang poems have a free form (that is, without a regular rhythm) and do not rhyme. They have strong imagery and are often about the bringing together of opposites, for example, the small is contrasted with the large, and the temporary with the eternal.Songs: Poems are often put into music or are written to be sung. When a poem is to be sung, it is written with a strong rhythm, use rhyme, in simple language, and the theme is often an emotion, such as, love, anger or despair.Adverb poem: in this form of poem the students pick an adverb to start each line. The lines are in rhyming pairs, such as:Slowly the dog crosses the road.Slowly the old man carries his load.Important new words and expressions in this unit: transform, exchange, sponsor, concrete, flexible, appropriate, eventually, tick, convey, tease, rhyme(押韵), nursery,diamond, pattern, cottage, sparrow, minimum, translation, branch, sorrow, librarians, section, diploma, blank, compass, bride, bridegroom, championship, darkness, warmth, scholarship, pianist, violinist, load, contradictory, endless, salty, forever, take it easy, run out of, be made up of, try out, let out, in particular, be popular with, translate…..into…., stay up, be likely to do sth. look forward to, by chance, by accidentSentence patterns:List poems have a flexible line length and repeated phrases which give both a pattern and a rhythm to the poem.

本单元的主要教学内容如下表所示:Period 1Warming Up,Pre-reading,Reading and Comprehending整体设计教学内容分析This is the first teaching period of this unit.The central part of this period is the readingpassage with the name of A Few Simple Forms of English Poems showing the students a few kinds of simple English poems.Warming Up gives three questions for students to discuss so that they can recall any poems they have ever learned and think about different reasons why people write poems.Pre-reading provides one question for students to think about and a table for students to fill in so as to help students focus on the topic of the reading passage and lead the students to skim the poems on the following pages and know about the general idea of the text.Reading mainly explains the reasons why people write poetry and introduces five simple forms of English poems.Nursery rhymes are the first poems that children will hear.These poems may not make any sense but they are easy to learn and recite.It is a good way for children to learn about language.List poems often list things,usually having many lines.They have repetition in them and sometimes they have words that rhyme.Cinquains are all made up of five lines and have the fixed structure.Haiku is a Japanese form of poetry that is made up of 17 syllables.It is almost like a photo or painting as it creates a strong image using very few words.Tang poems are famous poems from Ancient China.They have strong imagery and are often about the bringing together of opposites.Comprehending consists of three groups of exercises for the students to do so as to help the students to get a better understanding of the text,that is to say,to help the teacher to check how much the students have understood the text.三维目标设计Knowledge and skills1.To know the meanings of

students to complete Exercise 1 in groups.Ask them what they notice about these poems,then get students to recite any poems or parts of poems they can remember so as to arouse their interest in studying the whole unit.2.During Pre-reading the teacher can go around the classroom and discuss the questions with several students.This discussion should be student-centered and arouse students' interest in English poetry.The teacher should also ask the students to skim the text so as to let them have a general knowledge of some simple forms of English poems.3.While doing Reading and Comprehending,the teacher may first have the students close their books and listen to the text with their eyes closed.This gives the students the opportunity tolisten to the sounds or “music”of the poems before reading them in more detail.Then ask the students to read the text quickly to get the general idea of the passage.After detailed reading of the passage,students are encouraged to answer some questions and discuss the features of each kind of the poems.4.To consolidate the contents of the reading passage,the students should be required to retell the five kinds of poems in their own words at the end of the class.Emotion,attitude and value1.To cultivate students' appreciation of poetry and the ability of understanding,enjoying and writing poems.2.To develop students' sense of

teaching________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________Reading:A Few Simple Forms of English Poems李东玲,海南省儋州市民族中学,本教案获2008年度“教科杯”教学参考Ⅰ.Famous poetry in EnglishReading poetry brings people from different places and different times together.More than any other form of literature,poetry plays with sounds,words and grammar.That makes poetry difficult to write,but very interesting to read.Poetry also calls up all the colors,feelings,experiences and curious images of a dream world.Though it has a short history,there is a lot of good English poetry around.The seventeenth century was a great time for English poetry.Shakespeare is most famous for his plays.His sonnets,however,belong to the best English poetry.In the next generation of the English poets we meet John Donne.Chinese readers admire his works because of his use of surprising images that reminds them of the works of poets such as Su Dongpo.Before the end of the century,there was another famous writer,John Milton.Once published,his works became famous for the absence rhyme at the end of each line.In the eighteenth century it was Alexander Pope who wrote the finest poetry in England.The next period that produced a great number of fine poets was the nineteenth century.Greatly loved in China are the English Romantic poets.John Keats died at a very young age in 1821,while William Wordsworth,who spent much of his time in his English Lake District,lived to the age of the 80 and died in 1850.The nature poems by William Wordsworth,George Gordon Byron's Isles of Greece and the sonnets and long poems by John Keats have long been favorites.The style in their poems has often led to comparisons with poets such as Du Fu and Li Bai.Finally,modern poets have their special attraction because they stand closest to us both in the language and images they use.Among them we find the American poet Robert Frost.More and more people are interested to read modern poetry in English.Translation can be good,but being able to read English gives you much choice.Besides,no matter how well a poet is translated,something of the spirit of the original work is lost.Reading poetry in English also opens the door to finding new ways of expressing yourself in Chinese.Ⅱ.What is free verse?Free verse is a modern form of poetry which does not follow any specific rhyme or metrical scheme,although it does not completely abandon the basic poetic precepts of heightened language and songs.Free verse poetry is said to have been popularized by such notable poets as Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson during the late 19th century,although earlier poets like the mystic William Blake were beginning to pull away from the restrictions of the formal poetry of their day.Whitman's signature collection,Leaves of Grass,is almost entirely composed of free verse poetry.Dickinson,however,still wrote much of her poetry according to the metrics and rhyme of a favored hymn composer.The free verse style of poetry soon became popular with rebellious young poets such as the Frenchman Artur Rimbaud(阿图尔·兰波),who wrote many of his best free verse poems before the age of 18.Other poets embraced free verse poetry as a way to express raw emotions or unbridled passion not generally found in the formal poetry of their time.Whitman himself referred▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌精诚凝聚 =^_^= 成就梦想▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█▉▊▋▌to this artistic awakening as the great YAWP,a call for all artists to break free of social conventions and live life to its fullest.Free verse poetry continued to evolve throughout the 20th century,beginning with poets such as Carl Sandburg(卡尔·桑博格)and Robert Frost(罗伯特·弗罗斯特),both of whom were equally comfortable with formal and free verse poetry.Perhaps the most admired free verse poet was the expatriate Ezra Pound,who became a mentor to many of the 20th century's most famous authors and poets▃▄▅▆▇██■▓点亮心灯
