第一课时(1a2d)教材分析 本节课是本单元的第一节课，要引入本单元的语言目标：围绕“传说和故事（Legends and stories）”这个话题，谈论过去发生的事情，重点训练“讲故事”。这一节课是听说课，围绕“传说和故事”这一话题，设计了1a题目与图片配对；1b听对话选择故事的实情练习；2a、2b将听到的故事排序、圈出听到的单词，进一步理解故事；2c看图，用自己的话把故事讲出来；1c、2d和同伴谈论所听到的故事，讲述传说故事。要求学生掌握用过去时态讲述一个古老的传说和有趣的故事，激发和培养学生学习英语的兴趣，理解并体会传说和故事的教育意义。 一、教学目标： 1. 语言知识目标：1) 能掌握以下单词：shoot, begin, god, remind, bit, silly, instead of, work on, finish doing sth. think about 能掌握以下句型： How does the story begin? What happened next? What do you think of the story of Yu Gong? What could Yu Gong do instead of moving the mountains? 2) 能够用英语询问故事的开始、发展及后续等。能够对故事中的人物或情节发表一些简单的看法或观点。 2. 情感态度价值观目标： 学习愚公，要学习他“主动挖山”的精神。在我们生活工作中存在着很多的“山”。在这些山的面前我们应该采取怎样的态度对待它？是通过“搬家”来避开它或找领导请求帮助；还是像愚公一样明知困难却迎难而上，凭借自己的力量勇敢的克服困难。愚公不畏艰险，不怕困难，勇敢面对的精神，正是值得我们所学习的。 二、教学重难点1. 教学重点： 1) 掌握本课时中出现的词汇 2) 学会询问故事发展的基本句型： How does the story begin?
