Good afternoon, respected judges. I am No. X candidate, applying for English teacher of primary school. My topic today is Module 2 Unit 1 London is a big city. In order to make it clear, I will express my thoughts from the following 5 parts, which are the analysis of the teaching material, analysis of students, teaching methods and learning methods, teaching procedures and blackboard design. Now I am going to present them one by one.
一、说教材
First of all, I will give a brief analysis of the teaching material. The topic is to introduce London, which is from Module 2 Unit 1 of Grade 4, published by the Foreign Language Teaching and Research Press. Students can learn to describe one thing or one place with some expressions in this class. The topic of this unit is closely related to the daily life and many students have the experience of traveling or some ideas of something, but they can’t express their thoughts about it very clearly. In view of this, this lesson-the first period is very important for them.
Given the analysis of teaching material, the teaching objectives are designed as follows:
1. Students can read and speak the new words big, city, beautiful, small, queen, close.
2. Students can use the sentence pattern “This is … It’s …” to describe some places.
3. Through group work, students can learn how to cooperate with others.
4. Students can develop their speaking and writing abilities.
5. Through describing places or something, their awareness of observation will be cultivated.
Based on the objectives, I make the teaching key point and difficult point as follows:
The key point is that Students can use the sentence pattern “This is … It’s …” to describe a place or something.
While the teaching difficult point is how to develop students’ speaking and writing abilities during the teaching procedures.
二、说学情
Having learned English for a year and a half, students have mastered a certain knowledge of English language, initially formed a certain ability of listening, speaking, reading and writing, and their learning strategies have also been developed to varying degrees. But it also makes a subtle difference between students. Therefore, in this learning period, we should be more conscious to conduct hierarchical teaching, and set up varies of activities in the classroom for all students like “Choose and say”, “Guessing Game” and “I’m a little guide”. Besides, students have learned how to describe people in the previous module, which will lay a solid foundation for describing things in this unit.
三、说教学方法
Based on the analyses of the teaching materials and students, I will choose multi-media method, audio-lingual method and task-based language teaching method for this lesson.
According to the characteristics of students who like group activities, I will adopt the learning methods such as group cooperation, and also enhance their sense of autonomy through self-exploration.
四、说教学过程
Then we come to the most important part—teaching procedures, which will be demonstrated in the following steps:
Step 1. Lead-in
At the beginning of the class, I will pretend to be a tour guide and show some pictures of different places in England and ask students some questions like: Do you like these beautiful places? Do you want to go to some other places in England?
The purpose is to stimulate students’ learning enthusiasm and get familiar with today’s topic.
