1、Unit 17 DisabilitiesI教学内容分析在我们的实际生活中,时常可以看到残疾人,尽管他们身体有缺陷,但其中也有一大非常杰出的人物。他们取得的成功给每个残疾人以及健全人留下深刻的印象。身体残疾者,只要其志气不残,就可以通过开发自身的潜能,像健全人一样完成自我证明和自我实现的过程;同时我们社会,我们每个人都应对残疾人尊重和理解。本单元以残疾人为中心话题,介绍了残疾人的生活、学习、运动中的困难以及社会为帮助他们所做出的努力,从而让学生懂得应如何正确地去帮助鼓励残疾人。本单元要求学生能用所学的有关残疾的词汇来想象残疾人的日常生活,描述他们的实际困难和需要;能通过对周围残疾人生活状况的调查
2、,提出一些可行性建议,并从残疾人成功的事例中得到启示,激励学生克服困难,努力学习。Warming up部分展示了八幅图片,可以分成两部分开展活动。(1)前四幅是有关残疾人在上台阶、过马路、上厕所、打公用电话时所遇到的各种麻烦,要求学生以两人为一组讨论,假设自己是个残疾人,那么外出时会遇到怎样的困难与危险。学生应学会使用“If j were.,I would.”的虚拟语气句式。(2)根据后四幅图片的提示,全班讨论如何改进设施,使残疾人出行更安全。内容涉及到建设轮椅通道、设立盲道、坐式马桶、可方便坐轮椅残疾人使用的电话等。本部分通过讨论活动帮助学生了解残疾人生活上的难处,唤起学生关爱、帮助残疾人的
3、热心。 Listening部分描述了一位叫约翰的残疾人在日常生活中所遇到的种种不便。听力难度适中,通过练习,进一步让学生了解残疾人,关心残疾人。本部分设计了三个练习,融合了听、说两方面的训练。第一、二两个练习着重于听,通过提问与选择的方式要求学生有目的的去听,并抓住重点;第三个练习是在小组或全班讨论的基础上,针对约翰在生活中的诸多不便,提出解决这些不便的切实可行的方法,让学生在关心、支持残疾人的同时,提高听、说能力,锻炼学生的创造思维能力。 Speaking部分提供三种情景:盲人换车、聋人想学外语和踢足球、坐着轮椅想逛街,要求学生假设自己是聋、瞎或者坐轮椅的残疾人,那么在这种情况下,他们会如何
4、处理。学生选择其中任何两幅图片,与同桌积极合作,运用给出的短语,编成一个对话,以查看学生是否具有发现问题并解决问题的能力。这部分练习旨在训练学生的口语表达能力,同时让学生懂得学会设身处地的为残疾人着想,也考查了学生在生活中是否细心。 Pre-reading部分是Reading的热身活动,提供了三个问题供学生讨论,为阅读做好感情上和知识上的准备。第一个问题是让学生去发现身边的残疾人,并注意他们是如何克服困难的;第二个问题是讨论学生所知道的残疾名人是如何战胜残疾并取得成就的;第三个问题涉及残疾人的权利问题:残疾能否成为他们被拦在高校门外的理由,他们该不该得到特别的帮助。这些问题旨在引导学生去尊重残
5、疾人,平等对待残疾人。 Reading是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章一开始描述了一个叫钟晓文的残疾女学生,她擅长编写电脑程序,学习成绩优异,还在省里获奖。接着介绍了一所为残疾人开办的学校北京教育学院。在这所由北京联合大学创办的学校里,盲人可以和健全人同班学习,并且共同进取。同时,本章还提到了旨在激发与鼓励盲人的杂志中国盲童文学。杂志内容包括:残疾人如何克服困难,身残志坚;社会应关心残疾人,让他们像正常人一样接受教育,为社会服务。 Postreading部分设计了五个问题,可分为三部分。前三个问题纯粹建立在阅读的基础上,所以比较容易回答。这三个问题可以检查学生的理解程度。第二部分是第四个问题,需要在
6、理解的基础上,挖掘文章的深层含义,回答社会如何改变对残疾人的看法以及原因,重点训练学生的判断归纳能力。第三部分是第五个问题,要求学生换位思考,假设自己作为残疾人想要别人如何帮助、对待自己。五个问题的设计从表层到深层,引导学生关心残疾人,增强学生为社会奉献的意识。 Language study分词汇和语法两部分。词汇部分设计了两项练习。第一项要求学生用文中出现的单词完成十个句子,以达到正确使用本单元中一些重要词汇的目的。第二项提供一篇短文,要求学生根据语境选择正确词汇补全文章,巩固学习分词的用法。语法部分是复习直接宾语和间接宾语的用法并提供句子进行练习。 Integrating skills分两
7、部分。第一部分是关于“特奥会”的阅读资料,要求学生回答三个问题。在这三个问题中,第一、二个问题简单,针对课文的理解程度,而第三个问题则要求学生在阅读文章的基础上能挖掘文章的深层含义,进一步培养学生的语言综合运用能力。第二部分是写作,要求学生对周围的公共场所进行调查,看看是否都方便残疾人进出,并写下调查结果。然后要求学生描述现状并提出改进措施,全班进行交流。 Tips向学生提供了在学习一门外语时,如何不断激励自我,如何积极乐观地学习,如何享受学习语言带来的快乐的方法。 Checkpoint 17简单归纳了本单元的语法知识:一是直接宾语和间接宾语;二是要求学生使用本单元的单词和短语,对残疾人的生活
