让每个学生有充分表现自己的地方 Step 2 Warming up 1 The Ss should watch the picture and guess what it is about 2 T Can you tell me sth about Ancient Greece Ask the Ss to talk about Ancient Greece by brainstorming For

sorry for Hippomenes and agreed to help him 设计说明 通过图画来预测本课所学的内容是符合新课标的要求 符合学生好奇心理 激发学习本课的欲望 教师可让学生通过 Brainstorming 进行有关希腊神话的讨 论 然后提问学生有关希腊神话的知识 引导学生说出 The main characters in Greek legends are usually

再根据关键词在课文中搜寻相关信息 既可以提高 阅读速度 也可以提高搜寻信息的准确率 复杂的问题采取让学生填空的形式 旨在降低难度 并引导学生学会概括总结阅读内容 注 课文中出现了四个生词 但是不影响理解 教师可以让学生练习利用 上下文或者构词法猜测词义 词的用法可以请学生课后通过查字典 造句自学 并在词汇课上练习 Step 4 Discussion 1 Teacher assigning a
