Have you ever been to Singapore
一、教学内容概述
本单元的学习目标是理解和运用句型"Have you ever been to...？和I've never been to..., 谈论现在完成时态。本单元的所有活动以“谈论过去的经历”为话题逐一展开。Section A部分设计了听力活动、俩俩对话活动，阅读一篇短文----你曾经去过迪斯尼乐园吗？从听说角度逐步让学生认识和熟悉本单元的核心句型，进一步发展学生的听、说技能。 Section B部分通过对英语学习目的关注，设计了两个听力活动，及短文阅读，帮助学生掌握如何运用现在完成时谈论过去的经历，从而进一步对学生运用各种时态谈论过去的经历进行了综合训练，培养其写作能力。本课时是这个单元的最后一课，是一篇较长的阅读文章，内容是向我们展示了东南亚的一个漂亮岛国—新加坡，通过读前顶习、进行阅读和读后检测等一系列阅读训练活动，培养学生获取信息的能力，同时巩固句型和扩大词汇量；在学生获取信息的基础上，引导学生欣赏和积累正确、地道的语言材料，为口语和书面表达奠定基础；同时培养学生了解世界风情的兴趣，树立热爱美好生活，热爱大自然的美好情怀和向往。

三、学习者特征分析
本单元学习的现在完成时是在第六单元的基础上进行的，学生有了一点基础。加之在Section A和Section B部分已通过听说读写等方式的操练，学生对运用现在完成时来谈论过去的经历有了一定的基础，只是在学以致用上还不够熟悉。绝大多数的学生都对旅游话题感兴趣，因此对于学习介绍新加坡的文章就会兴趣盎然。同时，八年级的孩子自我意识逐步增强，在情感方面能进行自我教育，渴望得到理解和尊重。他们具有较强的求知欲和好奇心，具有一定的语言积累和知识储备，在课堂上他们善于表现自我，乐于积极思考，敢于发表自己的观点，这些个性心理特点有利于师生在课堂上进行交流。
四、教学策略选择与设计
本节课主要是教学有关新加坡的阅读文章，谈论过去的经历。根据《英语新课标》的阅读要求，主要采用课文整体教学方式，重点培养学生的基本阅读技巧与阅读策略。学生对旅游话题和谈论过去的经历本来就很感兴趣，因此通过观看旅游短片来导入新课，激发学生的兴趣，为下面教学打下伏笔。在阅读前先教学新词汇，为理解文章扫除最基本的障碍。接着进行skimming, scanning 和 close-reading，帮助学生理解各段的主要意思，学习和不断呈现重点词汇和句型，归纳缩写文章，整体感知，进而从概括本文的篇章结构和关键词汇，句型引导学生拓展到如何描写介绍某个城市，之后给出一些资料让小组合作讨论大任务并汇报，完成语言的输出功能。
教学方法：采用多媒体辅助教学、任务型语言教学途径等
学习方法：自主学习、合作学习等
