本单元的中心话题是艺术和建筑。围绕这一话题,学生将由此接触和领略古今中外的一些建筑艺术风格,了解一些著名的建筑艺术家及其典型的建筑特点,从而扩大他们在这一方面知识的理解和掌握,拓宽他们的文化视野,增长见识。通过学习,可以帮助学生了解建筑的文化特色,使他们从建筑中看到世界各地绚丽多彩的传统艺术风格和魅力,并可在一定程度上激发他们的审美能力,鉴赏能力和创造力。单元语言素材涉及传统建筑、现代建筑、建筑艺术家高迪、赖特,典型建筑如北京的故宫、奥运会场以及由废弃军工厂转变而成的798工厂等等。本单元的教学对教师本身的文化修养、知识面等方面有较高要求,需要我们在教与学的过程中不断更新知识结构,积累语言素材,拓宽学生学习和运用英语的渠道。

“热身”部分首先提供了两幅图片,一幅高楼和一幅乡村民居的图片,从引导学生讨论喜欢居住的处所入手,通过对于各种不同建筑的谈论,让学生说出自己的偏爱,谈一谈你所喜欢的建筑风格,是喜欢传统风格的建筑还是现代风格的建筑,从而对于建筑这一话题有一个初步的印象。

“听力”部分是讲述Amy 和Danny为布置新家在商场买家具的对话,主要涉及对不同家具的品味和喜好的谈论,为进一步 “谈论不同喜好”这个功能项目作好语言铺垫基础。听后课本中设计了选择、对错题及填空题三种形式对听的效果进行检测。

“说话”部分承接了热身部分的话题,提供了一个喜欢住现代式公寓还是住传统四合院的对话范例,在听录音熟悉对话的基础上让学生自由讨论对不同事物的喜好,进一步熟练如何表达喜好的对话并归纳了一些常用句型。

“读前”部分提供了四幅现代建筑的图片,让学生对阅读材料的话题先有个感性认识;并对阅读篇章的内容进行预测。阅读文章通过对现代建筑的不同特点的描述,将古今建筑、中外建筑、纯现代建筑与体现自然风格的建筑之间进行了对比,特别是介绍了世界著名建筑师高迪和赖特及他们的建筑风格,使我们更进一步了解建筑的无穷魅力。“读后”部分要求学生回答问题,检测对文章的理解程度,同时培养学生的思辩能力。

“语言学习”分词汇和语法两部分,学习一个重要句型:A is to B what C is to D. ( A nest is to a bird what a house is to a man.) 以及过去分词作宾补的用法。教材在这一部分中还设计了一个很好的情景:通过讨论房间装饰的话题来让学生熟练运用have something done 的句型。

“综合技能”包括读、写两部分。阅读部分是一篇介绍798工厂由昔日的军工厂转变为今日的文化艺术中心的材料,从古建筑如何重新再利用的角度向学生进一步渗透艺术和建筑的主题。写作练习要求选择一个建筑物的平面图,然后对其进行详细描述,特别是设想当该建筑物已不再作为原来的用途而转作其它之用时,应该如何对它充分地加以利用的问题,让学生展开想象,写出再利用的计划,并谈谈相关的利弊,从而训练学生在这一方面的写作能力。

“学习建议”部分指导学生通过报纸、杂志等媒体查找有关艺术和建筑话题的素材,如剪切图片,列表单,查找艺术展览的信息等等,提示学生从日常生活中收集信息,做生活的有心人的意识,明确的指导使得该任务具有可操作性。

“复习要点”部分简要地总结了本单元的语法重点--过去分词作宾补的用法并且涉及了一些基本的句型帮助学生理解和归纳。同时通过两个问题引导学生对本单元所学的词汇做一次回顾和小结。

Teaching goals:

Talk about art and architecture.

Period 1: Warming-up, Listening & Speaking

Period 2: Pre-reading & Reading

Period 3: Reading & Post-reading

Period 4: Language study

Period 5: Integrating skills

本教学安排根据LARA教学原则,对教材进行大胆的删除(L - leave out)、修补(A - Amending)、替换(R – Replace)、增添(A – Add)处理,灵活的将教材为我所用。我们根据单元实际情况对教材的编排顺序作了一些调整,如“热身”部分呈现了一些不同风格的建筑图片后,在学生充分发挥想象的基础上先引导学生思考用于描绘建筑物的词汇,导入本单元的词汇学习,即先处理问题3,再处理问题2。另由于第三部分“speaking” 的对话范例提供的一个喜欢住现代式公寓还是住传统四合院的话题刚好承接了热身部分的话题,所以我们在处理的时候把“speaking”和第二部分“Listening”也作了调整,先讨论喜欢住哪里,再转至第二部分喜欢布置什么家具,这样在内容安排上有更好的承接关系。热身部分的最后一个问题是查找建筑历史、著名建筑艺术家、建筑物的任务。我们认为这个任务可以作为课前预习任务或课后作业来布置会更好。

本单元以艺术建筑话题为核心,基于这一话题组织和安排了一系列的听、说、读、写活动,使学生在学习英语的过程中培养综合地运用所学语言的能力。因此,我们在采用话题、功能、结构相结合的基础上,设计了一系列的“任务型”活动。如让学生设计自己的“梦之家”,设计自己居室的家具布置,模拟开展“最佳寝室”的活动;并结合我们学校即将搬迁新校园的契机,让学生开动脑筋,人人参与,设计你所希望的新校园的蓝图,还可增强学生爱校爱家的主人翁精神;结合课文最后一部分旧建筑被重新再利用,并要求写作的任务,我们设计了让学生讨论如何重新再利用老校园的话题,体会做一个建筑师的感觉。我们觉得这些是培养学生的思维能力,创造能力和动手能力的很好的任务。在设计的过程中运用所学的知识,学生必定学得积极主动并学有所获。

分课时教学设计教案如下:

The rooms are big.

Every flat has a toilet and bathroom.

Two tasks: One is to talk about traditional and classical furniture. And the second task is choosing a picture to decorate their room.

Period 4: Language study

Step 1, Lead-in

T: Hello, everybody, yesterday we have seen a lot of wonderful modern architectures and got to know some famous architects. Today I’d like to introduce you one of my friends. He is an architect. Who can tell me the meaning of “architect”. (a person who designs buildings). He lived in this house when he was young. Do you think this house beautiful or not beautiful? (not beautiful) Can you use another word to replace “not beautiful”. (ugly). So when he became an architect, he designed some pretty houses. Not long ago he designed a new house for me. Let’s go and see my new house.

show the Ss the picture and ask them to describe it.

--What can you see in the market?

--Let’s see what can we do here?

Give examples: I can have my hair cut here.

Period 5: Integrating skills

Step 1. Revision:

( Talk about new house decoration to revise the grammar: have… done)

--- Dear class, I’m especially happy these days, because I’ve just bought a new house. It’s very beautiful. Look, here it is. I want to share my happiness with you. So would you like to help me design my house? How should I decorate my room? Please discuss it and give me some advice, OK?

--- You should have your walls painted white.

--- You had better have … done.

A few minutes later, call out some pairs to report their design. >

--- Ok, which group will give me good suggestions?

--- Thank you very much! You’re good designers. I’ll decorate my room according to your design.

Step 2. Lead-in

( Talk about how to deal with the old house.)

--- Now after I finished decorating the rooms, I moved into my new beautiful house. But what should I do to deal with my old house? Should I pull it down? No, I don’t want to do that. Anyway it’s so lovely a house. Should I let it stand empty? No, not a good idea. I want to give it a second life. What shall I do? Please discuss again in groups and this time give me advice on how to deal with the old house.

< Ss discuss and give advice. >

--- Wow, you have so many wonderful ideas! I think I like to change it into a beautiful teahouse and I can rent it to somebody else since I am too busy to run it myself. And thus I can give my old house a second life. Thank you very much! Would you like to come in and have a cup of tea in my teahouse some day?

Step 3. Fast reading on “ Factory 798 ”

--- Thank you for your ideas to give my old house a second life. And the same story goes with another old factory which is no longer used in Beijing. It is the famous place called “Factory 798”. Has anybody ever heard of that? If no, let’s open our books and read the passage on Page 23. Try to find out: “What is Factory 798? ”

< Ss fast reading for a few minutes. >

--- Who has found out the answer?

→ an old army factory ; an arts centre;

Step 4. Careful reading

--- Now let’s get some detailed information about Factory 798. Please read the second paragraph of the passage carefully again and find out:

--- What was Factory 798 like?

→ huge factory halls of bricks

→ small round windows that remind you of ships

→ bent roofs

→ 20-foot high walls of glass

More questions on the screen to guide the reading:

1. When was Factory 798 built? Who designed it? Who built it?

2. Why is it very different from Chinese architecture?

--- We’ve known that Factory 798 was built in 1950s. As time went by and things developed, what happened to it then?

→ no longer used/ needed

→ stood empty

--- What has happened to it now?

→ turned into an arts center

More questions:

3. How did Factory 798 turn into an arts center?

4. Why was Factory 798 welcomed by painters, music bands, artists and musicians?

Step 5. Listening and reading

--- Now, let’s listen to the tape and get a better understanding of the text. Please follow the tape in a low voice and pay attention to the pronunciation of the new words and phrases which you’re not sure of. At the same time, please try to find out the following new language points in the text and see how much you can understand them in English.

< Show the language points on the screen. >

1. pull down

2. stand

3. with… aid

4. remind … of

5. set aside

Step 6. Retelling

--- Now it’s time for you to read the text by yourselves and try to summarize the text. That is to say, suppose you are a journalist from CCTV 9 and you’ve just paid a visit to the famous Factory 798. Please make a TV program to introduce Factory 798 to our citizens in your own words. I’ll give you three minutes to read through the text by yourselves and get prepared for the retelling, OK?

Step 7. Discussion

--- In almost every city around the world, there are old buildings which are no longer used, such as schools, hospitals, factories or even churches. What do you think people should do with them? Why?

→To pull down the old buildings and set up new modern ones to keep up with the pace of the society.

→New uses should be given to old special buildings. It’s a great way to save the architecture from the past.

Step 8. Writing.

--- Since we all agree that giving the old special buildings new uses is a great way to save the architecture from the past, now it’s time for you to have a practice and show your ability. You know our school is moving to the new campus now and the old campus will be left empty then. Suppose you are young painters, artists, musicians, and you can rent some parts of the school building to practice. How do you want to change the school buildings? What new uses can be given to the old school buildings? Please work in groups and make a plan about it.

Step 9. Homework.

1. Finish the program about Factory 798 as a TV reporter.

2. Finish your plan about how to reuse our old school buildings.
