单元：Unit4Filmsandfilmevents板块：WelcometotheUnitThoughtsonthedesign:本节课是以说和讨论为主的课。因为结合一定写和动手的任务，所以可以独立设置为一个课时。说的教学应利用多媒体、图片等方式激活学生与单元话题有关的已有知识，引导学生联系自己的亲身感受，讨论与电影相关的话题。生动的影片剪辑和熟悉的影视图片为该课时的语言学习设置了生动的语言情景，能有效地引起学生对话题的兴趣，调动学生开口说的积极性。Teachingaims:1.AftersearchingtheInternet,thestudentswillbeabletoparticipateinadiscussionaboutfilmsandfilmevents;2.Afterdiscussion,thestudentsareabletotalkabouttheirfavouritedirectors,actorsandfilms;3.Bytalkingaboutthefilmsandfilmevents,thestudents’spokenEnglishcanbepractised.Teachingprocedures:Step1Lead-in(PPT4—7)Playashortvideo“DaVinciCode”.Thenaskthefollowingquestions.Haveyouseenthemovie?Areyouinterestedit?Why?Whatisyourfavoritefilm?Whatisitabout?Whoisyourfavoritedirector?Why?Whoisyourfavoritefilmstar?Canyounameoneofhisorherfilms?Whydoyoulikehimorher?[Explanation]《达芬奇密码》是很多同学看过的影片，且普遍反映喜欢这部影片，用它的一个片段能很快吸引同学们的注意力，激发谈电影的欲望，并积极参与到设计的一系列问题的讨论中。(直接到文件包中打开影片，影片未插到PPT里。)Step2Brainstorming(PPT8—14)Whatkindofinformationmightbeincludedonaticket?Whatisagoodfilm?(anattractiveoramovingplot,ameaningfultheme,appliedadvancedtechnology,afamousdirector,popularactorsoractresswithgoodskills,magnificentscenes）Ifit’sarealgoodfilm,willitbeawarded?Ifso,whenandwherewilltheyreceiveitsprize?(Sure.Theywillreceiveitsprizeinsomefilmfestivals.)Howmuchdoyouknowaboutforeignfilmfestivals?(AcademyAwards,GoldenGlobes,EuropeanFilmAcademy,VeniceInternationalFilmFestivalShanghaiInternationalFilmFestival.)[Explanation]在“头脑风暴”里准备的三个问题环环相扣，同时自然流畅地过渡到课本图片的讨论。幻灯片先呈现头脑风暴的讨论题，在同学们讨论后呈现答案，答案是开放性的，没事先准备好的可以板书在黑板上。Step3Picturetalking(PPT15—22)Ticket1:Whatkindofinformationcanyougetfromthefirstpicture?(Oneticketforoneadultonly,showingblack-and-whitefilmsfromthe1930s,fulldayentry.）Whatotherinformationdoyouwanttoknowabouttheevent?(Thestartingdateandclosingdateofthefestival,thestartingtimeandclosingtimeeveryday,thepriceoftheticket,thecitywherethisfestivalisheld.)Ticket2:Whatimpressedyouthemostwhilelookingatthisticket?Whatdoyouthinkmaybethestoryofthefilm?Whatdoes‘hidingdragon’mean?Whydoyouthinkthereisasingleeyeprintedintheticket?IfyouweretodesignaticketforHidingDragon,whatwoulditlooklike?Ticket3:WhatcanweknowaboutAcademyAwardsfromtheinvitation?(TheAcademyAwardswillhonorthebestfilms,actorsanddirectorsonthatnight.)Isthereanyspecialrequirementforthespecialnight?(Alltheguestsmustdressformally.)Ticket4:Whatcanyoulearnfromthisticket?(ThisisanadultticketforthefilmTheDayBeforeattheParkTheatres,whichisownedbyABCFilmCorporationat210WestRoadinNewYork.)Comparedwiththepreviousthreetickets,whatdoyouthinkofthedesignofthelastticket?Whichofthefourdesignsattractsyouthemost?Ifyouhadachancetoimprovethedesignofoneofthetickets,whichwouldyouchooseandwhatwouldyoudoaboutit?[Explanation]在课本图片的讨论前，可以把全班同学分成四个小组，当场进行小组讨论并列出讨论结果和发言提纲。有的问题的答案是开放性的，旨在让每个同学有话可讲，激发他们发言的积极性并乐于与他人分享自己的观点和作品。Step4Discussion(PPT23—25)Whichofthefourdesignsattractsyouthemost?Ifyouhadachancetoimprovethedesignofoneofthetickets,whichwouldyouchooseandwhatwouldyoudoaboutit?Supposethereisanewfilmforchildren.Howdoyouthinktheticketshouldbedesigned?(brightcolors,cartoonsoranimatedpatternsprintedontheticket,simplewords,discountforchildren.)[Explanation]在课本图片的讨论后，为挖掘学生的创新思维，设计以上三题。要求每个同学根据课上讨论的标准，课后制作出自己的作品供下节课展示，并可进行评比，优秀、有创新的作品贴在班上供观摩。Step5Homework(PPT26)1.Designaticketforachildren’sfilm.2.WriteashortpassageaccordingtothethirdquestiononPage49.3.Previewthereadingpartandtrytofindmoreinformationaboutfilmfestivals.[Explanation]家庭作业，一方面应尽可能充分利用课本资源，在课堂上讨论过后，布置写一语段既可检查课堂效果，又可将说写结合起来；另一方面应紧密结合课堂设计，布置能促进学生发挥想象力和培养动手能力的作业。
