复习课：比较级You are better than me！

郑玉珍

教学过程

Step 1.Warming up

Sing a song:“If you are happy”

If you are happy,stand up and say hello to the teachers.

If you are happy,clap your hands.

If you are happy,stamp your feet.

Oh,you did a very good job.I think you will be better.

设计意图：歌曲导入能激发学生的学习兴趣和热情，从而进入学习的最佳状态。利用歌曲展开TPR活动，为下面的形容词比较级复习埋下伏笔。

Step 2.Review the comparative forms

Look atthese! Let’senjoy some funny pictures.

（先出现图片，然后呈现单词，请学生为形容词找朋友）

The comparatives usually have four friends.

Usually their friend is-er.

If the words end with e,their friend is-r.

If we see this:Consonant+vowel+consonant,we usually double the consonant,then plus-er.

Ifthe words end with:consonant+y,we usually throw away y,put into I,then plus-er.

设计意图：通过请学生给形容词找朋友的方式复习形容词的原级及比较级，有趣而有效。

Step 3.Know thedifferencebetween the adjective prototype and comparatives

1.I have a friend,too.She works in our school.Can you guess?Who is my friend?

Haha,your friend is_____.

Questions I my friend How old “?”,but my son is 15 years old. “?”,but her son is 3 years old.How tall 1.55m 1.60m How heavy 50kg How big are the feet? Size 37…

2.Talk in pairs according to the form above.

How tall is your friend?

How heavy is...？

设计意图：学生在师生和生生对话的过程中自然地讨论各自的朋友，并运用形容词的原级，激活学生头脑中的语言知识储备。

3.Look! My friend is Miss Jiang.She is better than me.She is prettier and younger than me.She is 5cm taller than me.But I’m heavier than her.Her feet are bigger than mine.She can sing songs better than me.

教师请学生大声朗读教师的示范，并注意朗读的指导。

4.Peter and Mark are friends,too.Please listen.And tell me:

Who is better,Peter or Mark?

自编e-mail:（听力文本）

Dear Peter,

You are better than me.You are smarter than me.You are 5cm taller than me.But I’m 1 year older than you and heavier than you.Your legs are longer than mine.But my feet are bigger than yours.You can play basketball better than me.Do you want to be my friend?

Love,

Mark

Listen and check the answer.Who is better?Why?

设计意图：学生始终围绕朋友的话题，在阅读和听力的语篇中明白比较级的各种人称的自然变化，在阅读理解运用中了解形容词原级及比较级的区别。

Step 4.Use of the comparatives

1.Who is better than you in your class?

_____is better than me.

Because she/he is_____than me.

Her/His___is/are____than mine.

She/He can_____better than me.

2.Don’t be sad,boys and girls.Let’s enjoy an interesting poem.

Better than me

If you are better than me,

that’s good.

If I am better than you,

don’t be sad!

No one is the best（最好的）.

I want to be your friend!

Do you want to be my friends?

Thank you for being my friend.

配乐朗诵，注意朗诵技巧的指导。

3.Everybody is special（特殊的）.Everybody is good.If only(只要)you make a little progress（进步）every day.

You are better than yourself（你自己）.

Come on,boys and girls.We believe we can!（相信自己行！）

设计意图：通过“____is better than me.”这个活动，让学生找找自己与朋友间的差距，从而给学生创造真实的语言运用情境。小诗“Better than me.”则从心理方面给学生以安慰，最后教师的总结升华“我们每个人都要相信自己”的主题。

Step 5.Extension and homework

1.Tell your friend or your parents about your progress:

Before,I was_____.

But now I am_____.

Before I couldn’t ________But now I can_____.

2.Write an e-mail to your friend.

Dear_____,

设计意图：课后的延伸加强了说与写的联系，并复习滚动一般过去时的使用规则，为学生创造能真实运用的情境。同时利用E-mail为载体培养学生的写作能力。
