Topic: Holidays
Grammar: “like” followed by V-ing; simple future tense
General analysis on teaching content:
Unit 1：本单元的主要任务是听和说。通过听力材料学习该单元的主要句型“What do you like doing on holidays？” “I like doing…” 并谈论假日里喜欢做的事情。 这是学生比较感兴趣并易于发挥的话题,教师应该创设一些口语任务或情境,让学生乐于开口,培养学生的口语能力。
Unit 2: 本单元的主要任务仍为听和说。这也正体现了在起始年级 “听说领先,读写跟上”这一语言学习规律,重视培养学生的语音语调以及听说能力。通过教师的引导以及小组的合作学习,学会用一般将来时谈论各自的假日计划。
Unit 3: 本单元的主要任务是读写和听说。教师要善于整合课程资源,不能仅仅依赖教材,要不断开发课本以外的符合学生实际的课程资源,充实课堂,让学生感受到英语的实用性。
Unit 4: 这一单元的阅读和填词是对前几单元学习成果的有效检测。同时通过这个任务拓宽学生视野,进行跨文化意识的培养。这里可以采取Task-based Approach 任务型教学。

Ss: Because the holiday is coming.
T: Do you want to have a nice holiday?

T: I have lots of new and good ideas for a nice holiday…
（通过幻灯片把一些有趣的假日活动展示出来，问学生“What do you like doing during holidays?”这些活动包括本单元要求掌握的如visiting the museum, going to the beach等短语，还可以向课外延伸，列举一些比较流行而学生又比较熟悉的活动如bungee jumping, rock climbing, go hiking等等，这样更能激发学生的兴趣。）
