人教版新目标英语八年级上册Unit 3 I’m more outgoing than my sister.                                                                                            教学案例设计               
                                                                     
一、教案背景
1、面向学生：八年级学生    学科：英语
2、课时：一课时
3、课前准备：预习本课时出现的目标词汇；收集一些体育和影视明星的图片。
二、教学思路
比较级是学生刚刚接触的一种新的语法项目，而本单元的话题源自生活，以此为基点，我充分利用学生已有的知识和生活经验，创设生活化的真实情境（或半真实情境）引导学生在运用语言中学习语言，然后在学习新的语言知识后创造性地运用语言（在做中学，在做中用）。反复操练和巩固应用是为了调动学生的积极性，使学生处于积极思维的状态之中，全方位、多角度培养学生运用英语的能力。
三、教材分析
本单元话题内容贴近学生生活实际，同学们感兴趣，有话可说，有话愿说。在新目标英语七年级（下）第九单元What does he look like?中曾学习过一些描述人物外貌特征的词语，如：short, curly, straight hair,thin, heavy等，在学习本单元有关人物性格特征的单词时，可以温故而知新。学习语法知识点“形容词的比较级”以及人物比较的表达时，应紧密联系学生实际，就地取材，拿身边的人或物进行对比，由词汇变化到句子，再由句子扩展到语篇，使每位学生都能使用正确的语言结构描述人物特点和进行人物比较，能自由谈论自己的好朋友，以及他们之间的异同。
四、教学方法
提问引入法：通过提问，集体，分组，分行回答，或学生逐个回答的形式开展教学，检查和巩固新旧知识。
交际功能法：通过集体、分组、两人、个人操练等形式达到交际的目的
五、学法指导
A． 培养学生观察力，想象力，记忆力以及思维能力。
B． 通过任务型的教学，让学生学会自主学习，归纳总结，培养主动学习的能力，尤其对所学内容能主动复习并加以整理和归纳的能力。
六、 学情分析
      我班学生都来自农村,语言表达能力不强,但经过一年的英语学习,同学已经有一定的英语基础,当然还有部分学生学习不积极,还有待老师的进一步的引导。因此我选用“合作式”任务情景英语教学法，在教学中注重知识点的前提下，注重培养学生的口头表达能力、想象力、表演能力，从而培养他们正确的情感、态度、价值观。

First, look at the pictures. One is a turtle, the other is a rabbit. Make an introduction---“more outgoing”. Then enjoy a movie. Ask the students what the story is about.

Arrange two activities:
1. Teach the target language. How to compare the rabbit and the turtle by using comparatives with –r/er/ier/more.
2.Let the students have a try.
Ss talk about the rabbit and the turtle like this:
The rabbit is more outgoing than the turtle.
 The rabbit is taller than the turtle.
    The rabbit’s legs are longer than the turtle’s.

1.Sing a song
Play the video about the song < Good, better, best > on the computer.
2.Present the target language
Show students five pictures about movie stars one by one, and then compare different people. Pay attention to the key sentence pattern:
A+ be +形容词的比较级+than + B
3.Looking for the rule
The teacher shows some words, teach the Ss how to change these words into the comparative.
Sing the song after the computer.
The students in groups practice the sentences.
Ss find the rules of comparative .
tall- taller
quiet-- quieter
heavy--heavier
funny--- funnier
thin--- thinner
good/well--- better
loudly—more loudly
outgoing--more outgoing         
This step aims the students not only at creating expectations and arousing their interest in this text, but also getting ready for talking about personal traits and comparing people in pairs.
This is good for improving Ss’ ability of learning by themselves.
