英语八年级上册Section A教学设计及反思

Unit 6 I’m going to study computer science.

教学目标：

1. 知识目标:

本课重点词汇：computer programmer, computer science, engineer, pilot, professional ….

本课主要句型：What are you going to be when you grow up? I’m going to be an engineer. How are you going to do that? I’m going to study math hard.

语法：用be going to表示一般将来时。

2. 能力目标：

培养学生应用英语谈论将来计划，提高学生听、说、读、写等能力。

3. 情感目标：

通过谈论将来打算做什么以及准备怎样实现目标，让学生考虑自己的将来，及早为将来做好准备。培养学生学习英语的强烈兴趣，乐于参加各种活动的积极情感，善于合作，培养学生团结协作精神。

教学重、难点：

重点是掌握本课 computer programmer, computer science, engineer, pilot, professional等重点词汇，What are you going to be when you grow up? I’m going to be an engineer. How are you going to do that?  I’m going to study math hard.等重点句型和语法。用be going to表示一般将来时。

难点是一般将来时be going to 中be 的具体形式和后面接动词原形的用法, 而学生根据自己喜欢的职业，运用所学知识谈论自己打算怎样做来实现目标则既是难点，又是能力训练点。
