Welcome Unit
Period 2 Reading and Thinking：First Impressions
教学设计
教材分析
本节课是高中英语第一册Welcome Unit的阅读和思考部分，这个单元是刚刚步入高中阶段的开始，所以是初高中的过渡，让学生逐渐适应高中阶段的节奏和生活，对比初中来找寻不同之处，从而尽快适应新的生活。
从阅读意识的培养上，让学生了解叙事体裁需要一定的顺序，让文章更有层次感。
最后，在读的过程中了解一些必须掌握的词汇。
教学目标与核心素养
语言能力目标
新课标对于高考语篇意识非常重视，其中的叙事类型学生并不陌生，只是没有从宏观把握的习惯，这节课内容虽然很简单，但是可以借此培养他们对叙事顺序的思考，帮助他们具有一定的语言意识和英语语感，在常见的具体语境中整合性的运用已有的语言知识。
思维品质目标：
通过对比主人公的高中生活和自己的高中生活来寻找相同点和不同点，建立高中学习目标，树立远大理想并正确评价各种思想观点。
同时通过对文章信息的重新整合，做到创造性地表达自己的观点，具备初步运用英语进行独立思考的能力。
教学重难点
1.重点
（1）通过skimming 的方式快速找出文章的叙述顺序；
（2）学会用已知的内容去解决未知的问题，用已经了解的词汇去学习新的词汇；
2. 难点
（1）可以分辨叙述顺序，并可以换一种顺序来叙述；
（2）学会寻找一段中的关键词来重复故事。
教学过程。
