《Unit 4 wildlife protection》教学设计Topic:Unit4 Wildlife ProtectionSection ⅠWarming Up & Reading — PrereadingTeacher:Teaching contents:Part1 the Teaching MaterialThis unit is to introduce to us the importance of wildlife protection. The reading passage is the center of this unit. It is made up of 3 paragraphs, that is, why we need wildlife protection, a good example of wildlife protection and what we can get from wildlife protection. The text is the most important teaching material in this lesson, w hich extends the main topic “wildlife protection” and contains most of the vocabulary and grammar points that students should learn in this unit.Part2 Analysis of the StudentsAlthough the students have the basic abilities of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, they still need many opportunities to practice what they have learned, to express their ideas, feelings, and experience and to develop their autonomous learning ability and cooperative learning ability.Most students in Xueda are not good at learning English. However, they are interested all kinds of interesting topics as well as hobbies. They are fond of animals which can set up their awareness of protecting animals. They may take an active part in the discussion.Part3 Teaching AimsKnowledge aims:(1)to help students to understand and master the words, phrases and sentence patterns.(2)to know some basic information about the endangered animals and wildlife situation and protection.Ability aims:(1)To improve the students’ organiz ing and using skills of English as the second language(2) To understand the main idea, to scan for the needed information and to grasp the detailsEmotional aims:(1)Help students understand the importance of the wildlife protection and make them be more active in the helping wildlife.(2)Develop students’ sense of cooperative learningPart 4 Teaching Key Points And Difficult Points:Teaching Key Points:(1). To help the students get a general idea of the whole passage, and some detailed information and language points as well.(2). To understand the importance of wildlife protection and then do something for wildlifeTeaching difficult points :(1). The students use their own words to express their own ideas.(2). the usage of present progressive passive voice.Part5 Teaching and Learning MethodsTeaching Methods:municative Language TeachingLanguage is used for communication. It’s learner-centered and emphasizes communication and real-life situations.b. Task-based Language TeachingA task resembles activities which our students or other people carry out in everyday life, Learners should be given opportunities to reflect on what they have learned and how well they are doing.c. Computer Assisted Language TeachingLanguage learning needs a context, which can help the learners to understand the language and then can product comprehensible output, so computer has the advantages to make the materials attractiveLearning Methods:Task-based, self-dependent and cooperative learning.Part 6 Teaching ProcedureStep 1 Lead-in“Interest is the best teacher.” Therefore, at the very beginning of the class, I should spark the students’ mind to focus on the centre topic “the importance of wildlife protection”I’ll ask them the definition of the wildlife and name some animals. Ask them what they know about those animals. The answers must relate to their present situation, such as die out, dangerous, decrease and so on.After this, the students will be eager to something about the endangered wildlife and this is the very time to naturally lead the class into Step 2.Step 2 New wordsIn this step, I will deal with some new words in the class, which can help students make a better understanding of the passage and get some basic knowledge. I teach the new words by showing some pictures or songs which are related to the basic words.1. die out灭亡;逐渐消失2.in peace 和平地;和睦地;安详地3.in danger 在危险中;垂危4.in relief 如释重负;松了口气5.burst into laughter 突然笑起来;大声笑了出来6.protect...from 保护……不受……(危害)⎭⎪⎬⎪⎫prevent ... (from) doing sth.stop ... (from) doing sth.keep ... from doing sth.阻止……做某事 7.pay attention to 注意8.be concerned about 关心1. species/'spiːʃiːz/n.种类;物种2. carpet /'k ɑːpIt/n.地毯3. respond /rI'sp ɒnd/vi.回答;响应;做出反应4. distant /'dIst ənt/adj.远的;远处的5. fur/fзː/n.毛皮;毛;软毛6. laughter/'l ɑːftə/n.笑;笑声7. mercy/'mзːsI/n.仁慈;宽恕;怜悯8. certain/'sзːtn/adj.确定的;某一;一定9. powerful/'pa ʊəfl/adj.强大的;有力的10. affect/ə'fekt/vt.影响;感动;侵袭Step 3 Reading for information: fast reading and careful readingIn this step, I use Task-based Language Teaching method, which can givestudents a clear and specific purpose while skimming and scanning the context.Task 1 fast readingI will ask the students to skim the text and answer the following questions, for example, the main idea of each paragraph.Task 2 careful readingCooperative learning can raise the students’ interest and create an at mosphere of achievement. Based on this theory, I divide the whole class into 3 groups to finish the following questions.Step 4 Solving difficult language problems through readingIt’s important for language learners to learn important rules of gramm ar and use these rules to solve problems in reality. In the previous process of reading, the students must come across some difficult language obstacles, so it’s necessary for us to discuss and explain. This period of time belongs to students. They can ask any questions they come across in the process of learning. I’ll explain the questions and difficulties. The purpose of this is improving the students “questioning spirit” and dealing with the difficulties.Step 5 Basic practice1.—What are you worried about?—Tom didn't respond to any of my calls. Something must have happened to him.2.She was so amused with the magician's tricks that she burst into laughter (laugh).3.After the boat's motor failed, they were at the mercy of the weather.4.I hope you will pay_attention_to_this_problem (对此问题给予关注).5.I protected_my_eyes_from_the_sun (保护我的眼睛免于太阳晒) with my hand.6.This species of tiger is decreasing in numbers every year and is_dying_out (快要灭绝了).Step 6 SummaryLanguage is learnt by communicating. It is my job to create an atmosphere for students to use the language. Here I design 2 activities1 Role readThe text is concentrated on the conversation between Daisy and Tibet antelope, elephant and monkey. Role read is a good chance to practice English in a cooperativelearning atmosphere.2 DiscussionDuring making discussion, the students will deepen their understanding of the severe situation of wildlife and the importance of wildlife protection.1. Why is it important to protect wildlife?2. What must be done if wildlife protection is to succeed?Step7 HomeworkAsk the students to write down their opinions about what they should do to protect the wild animals. The assignment enables the students to search various information resources, which can widen their view and continue to inspire their enthusiasm of learning.Blackboard designPart 7 Teaching ReflectionI used pictures, music,questions and answers to attract students to have an active learning atmosphere.Help students master some key words, phrases and sentences.Reading is considered as a boring part by many students. It is a question that how to guide students to be always interested in English reading.。

Unit 4 Wildlife protection Period 1 Warming Up & Reading课后阅读训练Ⅰ. 阅读理解AWhat do the following animals have in common? Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.They are all endangered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly, humans are behind every one of them!For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful furs, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!Year 1505 was a dreadful turning point in the natural history of the island of Mauritius—European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds. About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruits fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive(过度的)hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.Humans and animals have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to build beautiful houses. We build reservoirs(水库)to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.More than once we have seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled(泄漏的)oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳的排放)and other gases have raised the Earth temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and long-lasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring.【语篇概述】本文主要介绍了导致许多动物灭绝的原因, 我们人类应该保护野生动物, 保护地球。

leading-edge technology.Low-cost,dependable and small modern cameras are a big help.Cameras placed in hard-to-reach places have taken videos of everything from small desert cats to larger snowloving felines(猫科)in the northern Rocky Mountains.These cameras are important tools to learn new information on wildlife.Some videos help scientists see the effects of climate change.For example,the desert animal javelina and the treeloving coatimundi(长鼻浣熊)have been caught on cameras north of their normal home.This could mean global warming is enlarging their living area northward.Researchers use cameras along with global positioning systems,or GPS.They attach GPS devices(设备)to mule deer and antelope (羚羊)in and around Yellowstone National Park.Then they can record their movements,or migrations(迁移).These cameras can be left in very rural(荒里予的)areas for days,weeks or even months.They can provide information on how many animals are moving over a given period of time.Rural video can show details about animal behavior,such as the calls made by migrating mule deer.Also,some cameras record animal life,showing everything from bison in Saskatchewan,Canada,to the underwater weed forest off California ' s Channel Islands.However,rural cameras have their problems too.Animals such as wolverines and bears sometimes attack them.Scientists do not know if the attacks are the results of anger or interest.Also,the devices have become popular tools to help hunters look for animals.Some people argue that it is unfair to use the cameras that way.Even with such problems,rural cameras are clearly an important scientific tool in researching wild animals.1.Which of the following helps scientists know about climate change?A.How active animals are.B.Where animals go.C.What animals eat.D.When animals move.答案:B解析:细节理解题。

Unit 4 Wildlife Protection Section Ⅰ Warming amp;Reading Pre-reading
The old Elephant House at the National Zoo in Washington D.C. has been renovated (翻新) to include a lot more space for the giant animals to play, rest and even take a shower. It has been renamed the Elephant Community Center, and it also offers a lot more for human guests. “It's a great place for elephants to socialize,” said Marie Galloway, who is the elephant manager at the zoo. The community center is designed to hold as many as 10 elephants. Although the zoo plans to increase the herd (象群), there are now just three elephants: Ambika, Shanthi and Kandula. Galloway said each animal reacted (作出反应) differently to the new space. Shanthi, 38 years old, walked right in and explored everywhere. Ambika, 65, was very cautious (谨慎的) the first day, not sure if the new space was safe. And Kandula, Shanthi's 11yearold son, had a funny way of dealing with the unknown. “He backed his way in,” Galloway said with a laugh. “The elephants are already enjoying throwing sand on one another,” said Galloway. People also have a lot more to do than in the old building, where they had few chances to learn about endangered species from Asia. There's a display featuring one of Kandula's old toys: a 750pound tire. Visitors can watch a video of him playing. There are several other handson activities, including a machine that compares elephant sounds and human voices. You also can make a promise to save the elephants. Lastly, “protection” is the message zoo officials hope visitors will take away from the exhibition. “We're hoping people will come to ... and become educated,” Galloway said. “And take action to protect elephants.”

戴茜是如何学会帮助野生动植物的 [第1段译文] 戴茜一直都渴望帮助那些濒临灭绝的野生动植物。一天她醒来,发现床边有一块飞毯。飞毯问:“你想去哪儿?”戴茜立刻回答。“我想去看一些濒临灭绝的野生动植物。请带我到一个遥远的地方,在那里我可以找到为制作这件毛衣而提供皮毛的动物。”她说。飞毯立刻起飞了,带她到了西藏。在那里,戴茜看到一只藏羚羊面带忧郁的神色。它说:“为了取得我们肚皮底下的羊毛,我们正在被屠杀。我们的毛皮被用来为像你一样的人们制作毛衣。因此,我们现在濒临灭绝了。”听了这话,戴茜哭了:“我很抱歉,我过去不知道还有这回事儿。我想知道为了帮助你们正在采取什么措施。飞毯啊,请把我带到一个有野生动植物保护的地方去吧。”
