　　教学反思：
　　这段时间由于我在学生每天记十个词前，先领读他们一遍，再分开音节，讲一讲英语的拼读规则，发现学生的记忆效率大大的提高。如果让他们把每单元几句重点句背下来，学习效果是不是更好呢？单词需要积累，这点勿容置疑。对于我们的学生来说，典型句子同样需要积累。句子背下来，在用的时候就可以举一反三，就像语文中背范文一样。对于我们那些基础较差的学生来说，他们在交际时需要模仿，在他们的记忆库中贮存就是十必要的。当然，如果学生能够在课堂上用英语去表达的话，说明这些典型的句子他们已经掌握。但现实的情况是，这种方法更容易适用于尖子生，或者基础较好的学生，很多学生只是充当的观众。
　　另外，在本单元的教学中我还补充了相关知识，让学生对各地的名胜古迹、历史风情、地理知识等知识的进一步了解，从而实现英语与其他各学科之间的渗透。
　　让学生死记硬背是不对的，但不让学生背也是不对的。

　　课后反思：
　　由于本单元的内容和学生的实际生活息息相关，所以在课程的设计上给了教师更多的设计空间。同时在实际的操作中也显得流畅、自然。
　　在教学活动的设计上采用以学生对话和小品为主的活动课，能够更好地调动学生学习的积极性。通过调查，学生以小组的方式来开展问路的对话训练，让小组的同学在自己编排的活动中运用到相关的不同单词，可以帮助学生更加生动地掌握新单词。
　　在教学的整个过程中，充分发挥学生主动性，并鼓励学生体现个性化。得到了学生的热情响应，取得了很好的教学效果。但是由于是活动课，在课堂秩序的维护和时间的有效利用上仍然需要近一步地改进。

　　教学点评及反思：
　　一．环节设计思路：
　　本课以游戏形式的猜动物名称引入，首先让学生通过游戏中的练习，尽快熟悉各种动物的英文名称。然后导入到三个链状承接的任务上。第一个任务通过听力引入本课的第一组重点句型，即询问喜欢何种动物及其原因。然后在同学中做一个调查，看看大家都喜欢些什么动物以及喜欢的原因，为第二个任务积累资料。任务二是真实任务前的模拟，让学生从大家喜欢的动物中挑选两至三种安排小组去动物园的参观路线。真实任务是来源于对秋游的设想，打算组织学生去北京动物园，分小组活动，要求各小组有自己的参观计划，必须明确列出参观各种动物的顺序以及原因，并根据地图说出大致的方位。课堂完成任务后，课后任务对课堂的延伸和巩固，因此选择了学生较感兴趣的野生动物问题，同时兼有美术和生物学科的学习，一举多得。
　　二．课后反思：
　　本课设计上思路非常明晰，由潜入深，教师带领着学生一步一个脚印，渐渐进入任务，让学生非常自然的领会本课的知识点。任务的设计贴近学生生活，有趣又实用，学生的参与非常热烈。教师对课堂的把握非常到位，收放自如。不足之处在于野生动物的话题过于广泛，教师可给与适当的指导，提供方向性的资料利于学生课下任务的完成。

　　教学反思：
　　初中生都喜欢看电视电影，而且都有自己喜欢的电视或电影明显，所以这个单元的话题也对学生有足够的吸引力，能够引起他们的兴趣。在课堂口语训练和表演上，我尽量给学生们的时间，让他们充分练习。学生小组讨论和练习。让大部分的同学都能有机会来表演。因为学生的表演欲望很强，所以，虽然在这个活动上要花比较多的时间，但是能够让学生对学英语更加感兴趣，更喜欢英语课，所以我觉得这是很值得。
　　除了表演和对话之外，我还叫学生口头造句（一些有关职业的句子），争取大部分的同学都有回答的机会，多次重复加大练习。另外还采用一些游戏的形式，让尽可能多同学参与。在每节课的最后五分钟我以提问的形式来进行复习总结，在让学生有一个巩固的机会。
　　在小组活动中我设计了＂找工作＂的任务型教学活动：以小组为单位讨论，个人介绍推销自己。活动之后要求学生口头汇报任务完成的情况，让他们把学到的知识系统地用到自己的作文中来，练习关于职业以及工作地点的表达。最后要求他们写出书面的作文作为家庭作业，达到笔头方面的训练目的。
　　我们在教学中不能只是课堂上热闹而已。课堂上的热闹应该是起到调动学生学习积极性的作用，更重要的是要趁势把这种积极性正确地引导到努力巩固所学知识上面来，并要培养他们刻苦努力地学习和追求上进的精神。
