Unit Four How do you go to school?
一、Analysis of the Teaching Material：
本单元是新目标英语《Go for it》八年级第一学期内容。本单元讨论的话题是交通运输方面的，是非常具有实用性的内容。学好本课，学生不但能够加深对一般现在时态的理解和运用，也可以用英语来和别人讨论到达某地的最佳方式。
二、Analysis of the Students：
对于出二第一学期的学生来说，他们在经过初一一年的英语学习后，已具有了相当的英语基础，同时也具备一些运用的语言知识的能力。在这样的基础上，学生对于讨论跟他们生活息息相关的行的相关内容一概很容易产生兴趣，老师应在这一教学过程中教育学生要自觉遵守交通法规。
三、Design the principle：
新目标英语强调的是任务型教学，强调学生要成为教学活动的主体，而老师只是从中起到协调引导作用，因此在我的教学设计里，比较重视学生活动。充分调动起学生的积极性，让他们成为学习的主动者。本节课是本单元的第一课时，主要让学生掌握交通工具和基本句型“How do you……？”
