Do It Yourself—integrated skills

宜兴市桃溪中学   夏云

一、上课背景

本课是围绕课题《基于英语学习活动观的英语教学实践研究》上的一节研究课，更是把英语学习活动观运用于Integrated skills这一课时的一次“好课堂”探究课。

二、学情分析

本课时的授课对象是八年级学生，对于DIY话题，八年级的学生已经有一定的体验以及语言积累，并且能够基本表达自己的观点。但对于如何描述DIY的过程，还需要教师来进行引导。教师通过设计多种活动，引导学生流畅表达如何DIY。

A  How to make a fruit salad

Step 1 Lead-in.

Guess what we need for making a salad.

T: Today we’ll going to learn how to DIY some delicious food, such as a fruit salad. 

T: If we want to make a fruit salad, what do we need? Fruit! Right, we may need bananas, apples, strawberries and grapes. Now read the new words after me: strawberry, grape. Of course we also need salad cream. Now read after me: salad cream. We need fruit and salad cream to make a fruit salad, but are they enough?

【设计意图：启发学生思考做沙拉所需要的物品。既帮助学生对下一个环节进行了预判，也为学生做下面的听力训练扫除了生词障碍。】

Step 2 Presentation

1. Listen to the conversation

Play the recording for the first time and get students to answer the questions.

T: Amy and Suzy are making a fruit salad，Let’s listen to their conversation and find out what they need to make a fruit salad.

2. Put the steps in the right order

T: Now we know what we need to make a fruit salad, but how can we make it? Here are some steps of making a fruit salad. Let’s see them together. Are they right? No, they are in the wrong order. Can you put them in the right order? All of you did a good job. If we want to make a fruit salad, we’d better remember these steps. Please pay attention to the order of time: first, then, next, and at last. Let’s have a try! 

3. Ask some students to retell the order of making a fruit salad.

4. Tips for making a fruit salad

T: Now we have known how to make a fruit salad. Do you want to make it better? Here are some tips for you. Let’s listen to the tape and complete the notes. I hope these tips will be help to you. 

Listen to the tape and then check the answers with the students. Get the students to read the passage and then deal with some language points such as: leave it in the air.

【设计意图：作为听力练习的有效策略，听前预测能够帮助学生进行有意识的推断，有效激发学生思维，对听力理解能起到很好的辅助作用。通过给制作沙拉的步骤，让学生掌握如何制作沙拉，并且知道如何按时间顺序描述事件。】

B Speak up: Let’s make some sandwiches.

Step 1 Presentation

1. Listen and answer

T: Since we have known how to make a good fruit salad, why not make some sandwiches for lunch? Sandy and her mum are talking about making some sandwiches. Let’s listen to their dialogue and then answer three questions.

What are they going to make for lunch? (Some sandwiches)

Are they quick and easy to make? (Yes, they are.)

What do they need to make a sandwich?

2. Get students to read the dialogue together

T: Since we have known what we need to make a sandwich, let’s read the dialogue again to find out how to make it. Please read the dialogue carefully and pay attention to the sequence: first, then, next and just.

3. Sum up the steps of making sandwich

Ask some students to find out the steps of making a sandwich and try to retell in their own words. 

T: All of you have found the steps of making a sandwich, can you remember them? Let’s have a try!

4. Act out your own dialogue

Give students some time to work with their partners and then act out their new dialogue. Here is a model dialogue. 

A: It’s time for …

B: OK. Let’s … 

A: Are they …?

B: Sure. First, … Then, ... 

A: Next, …

B: That’s …  

A: Is that …?

B: Well. Just … Finished!  

【设计意图：首先让学生带着三个简单的问题听录音，初步感知听力录音中的大致内容，为后面的阅读做一个前期铺垫。然后让学生自己组织语言，将听力材料中的内容转化为口语输出。最后让学生掌握做三明治的基本步骤，为下一步自己动手做三明治做好准备。】

Step 2 Extension 

1. Discussion

What other DIY works can we do in our daily life? 

2. Show students how to make a banana milk shake

3. Summary

T: Thank you, guys! And all of you did a good job today. I had some advice for you. As Grade 8 students, you must be very busy with your lessons. As you see, we can still make our life more colourful with our hands and mind. 

【设计意图：让学生多动脑筋想出更多的创意。最后做杯香蕉奶昔，搭配前面的水果沙拉和三明治，一顿丰盛的早餐就齐了。】
