My New Teachers教案
(show the words on the screen.)
step 2 presentation
t: let’s first look at the words. read after the tape, then in pairs. finally do this activity alone.
as a way of categorizing the words, ask the ss to write “+” for positive adjectives, and “-” for negative adjectives. show the words on the screen and ask the ss to call back their answers. some words will have a positive and a negative meaning, depending on the context.
answers: amusing + energetic + funny + /- instelligent + kind + lively
+nervous-organized+patient+popular+serious+/-shy+/-strict+/-stupid
t: to call someone shy is not meant as a criticism, but being shy may stop the person doing something well, such as speaking english. a teacher may think that being strict is good, but students may not agree! someone who is serious may be hard-working and focused, or it may mean someone who has no sense of humor. someone who is funny may be amusing, or peculiar!
step 3 practice
a: our chinese teacher is serious but his teaching is well organized.
b: our math teacher is funny but very strict.
c: ms li, the english teacher is kind and patient.
d: our science teacher is very energetic and intelligent.
e: miss chen, our chemistry teacher is shy, but she is very popular with our students.
f: i am always interested in ms li’s classes. they are never boring.
do the other exercises like this.
step 4 listening and practice
t: listen to alex, an english student, and tick the sentences that he agrees with.
play the tape through once while the students listen to and read the statements again.
play the tape again for them to tick what alex barnes says.
ss can check with a partner.
play the tape once more for them to check.
call back the answers from the class. after listening to the tape, we know alex doesn’t agree with the first one and the last two. that is, not all good teachers talk a lot, sometimes a teacher needs to talk without interruption and a teacher must be organized.
t: all good teachers talk a lot. do you agree? student a?
a: no, i don’t agree. neither does alex. i think teachers need to be strict. do you agree, b?
b: yes, i quite agree with what you said. so does alex. i like teachers who are amusing and can laugh with their students. do you agree, c?
c: yeah, i agree. so does alex. the most popular teachers are alsays very kind, is that right,
