Unit 3 Amazing Animals

tomorrow is saturday .the zoo is open . danny, jenny and brian don’t have classes .they are going to somewhere .now they are making a plan .the following dialogue will tell us.
step 3 presentation
play the tape for the students to listen and ask the following questions :
﹡where will they go tomorrow ?       
﹡what plan are they making ?
﹡what will danny need to take ?
then show the answers on the screen so that students can check the spelling and other details of their answers .
(本環節是聽力活動,聽的環節是“輸入”的過程，讓學生帶者問題去聽，目的是讓學生在聽的過程中有的放矢，有效地捕捉信息，提高學生聽力水平。同時獲取信息后總體感知課文的大意。)
step 4 listening and reading :
books open . play the audiotape again and have the class follow along in their dialogue . then teach new words.
(由上一個環節自然過渡到課文內容的學習,學生在不知不覺中感知新知識;多媒體采用形象生動的動漫圖片,保持學習新知識的興趣，使學生在輕松活潑的氣氛中學習和掌握知識。 )
step 5 explanation and discussion :
explain the key and difficult points and let students write them on their notebook .
(精講精練,掃除學生的語言障礙,培養學生邊聽邊做筆記的學習策略。之后播放有聲有色的圖片展示了同學們熟悉的話題，易于激發學生對活動的欲望，生活就是知識，對于他們熟悉的話題會信心百倍更積極的參與到課堂活動中。)            divide the class into small groups and ask each groups to discuss the following questions ,using as much english as possible .
﹡have you visited the zoo ?           
﹡who went to the zoo with you ?
﹡did you buy tickets for the zoo ?      
﹡what animals did you see ?
﹡what animals did you like best ? why ?
﹡did you feed any animals ?
﹡is it good for animals to live in the zoo ?
ask the class to talk about each other .using these sentences :
it is good for animals to live in the zoo .
it is not good for animals to live in the zoo .
（在這項活動中，我通過設計不同的問題，讓所有學生全面參與，使學生思維一直處于積極活躍的狀態，讓他們在小組中交流、合作、競爭。每個問題都存在著一定的信息差，易于激發學生表達欲望和急于知道答案的心情，在活動中一定會表現自己，做到最好。同時也培養了學生解決問題的能力。把is it good for animals to live in the zoo ?作為辯題，分為兩隊，
正方：it is good for animals to live in the zoo .
a it is easy for people to see all kinds of animals .       
        b the workers in the zoo can protect .
