Unit 1Where is your pen pal from?



[设计思路]
本节课通过三个任务的完成引导学生运用be from和live谈论人们的国籍及居住城市，在完成任务的过程中，综合运用目标语言，并通过与他人的合作交流，相互学习和帮助，在思想和能力上得到提升。

任务一：我们的笔友来自哪里
这个任务让学生填写调查表，了解全班同学的笔友分别来自哪个国家以及居住在哪个城市，同时让学生认识和了解一些国家和城市相关地理文化知识，拓展学生的视野, 激发他们的兴趣。在完成任务的过程中运用where…from和where…live引导的特殊疑问句, 综合运用目标语言, 询问并回答人们的国籍和住处。

任务二：这是我的笔友
通过学生阅读笔友来信了解笔友的国籍和住所, 根据调查表找出笔友的照片, 结合来信, 全面认识自己的笔友, 并向他人介绍自己的笔友, 在交流中循环目标语言和重点词汇。

任务三；圣诞的问候——传递友谊
让学生给笔友制作圣诞卡，并通过笔友来信写一封简短的回信。通过为笔友制作圣诞卡片，把这个单元的目标语言落实到笔头上，并给学生提供了一个综合运用语言进行交流和了解世界文化，传播中国文化的舞台。

总之，这节课是本单元的第一课时，这三个任务的设计从基础开始层层递进，让学生在了解笔友的基础上, 通过制作圣诞卡片传递友情, 学会同各国中学生进行交流, 增强对世界各国人民的了解，让中国学生朋友遍天下, 让中国北京走向世界。
