StepII. Warming up and leading in
T:: There are many important and interesting festivals in China. Do you know some of them?
Ss: Yes .
T: What are they?
S1:They are the Lantern Festival, Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival....
（引导学生说出一些节日的名称，为降低难度，图片一幅幅展示,为下文描述节日中的各种活动做准备）

S1: Many people who are throwing water at each other are the Water Festival.
S2: Many people who are rowing a boat are the Dragon Boat Festival.
S3: The picture that with a beautiful woman who is flying into the moon is the Mid-autumn Festival.
S4: …

T: Today we’ll learn more about festivals. Let’s come to 1a. Match the pictures about some of the festivals with the description.

TTSs: 1—d ; 2—a ; 3—c ; 4—b
【设计意图】大多数孩子对传统节日有所了解，依据这一特点，老师出示图画先问同学们是否知道这些节日的英文表达，同学们通过观看各种活动竞相说出自己认识的节日。但是要了解节日更多的活动，还要亲自去看一看，这为学习1a做了很好的铺垫。
StepIII. Presentation
Look at the picture above , ask and answer :
T: Which festival do you like best?
S1: I like the Dragon Boat Festival.
T: What do you like best about the Dragon Boat Festival?
S1: I love the races.
引出目标语言What do you like best-----?
Then the teacher asks S2.
T: Which festival does S1 like?
S2: He/She likes _______.
T: Why does he/she like best about______?
S2: He/ She thinks_______.
引出目标语言Why does he/she like------? He/ She thinks----.
【设计意图】用课本插图呈现上面的内容，引出目标语言What do you like best? 和Why does he/she like------? He/ She thinks---- 为1b的听力做好准备。
StepIV. Listening I
While-listening activities
1.Listening for the general idea of the conversations.听取大意
Listen and choose the main idea of the conversations.
The main idea of the three conversations is about______
A. The Lantern Festival
B. TheChinese Spring Festival
C. The Dragon Boat Festival
2. Listening for the specific ideas听取细节
(1) 1b Listen and circle T for true or F for false.

Post-listening activities
1. Listen and repeat.
2. Pair work
Ask Ss to make their own conversations with their partners using the festivals in 1a.
For example:

【设计意图】听取环节属于知识的输入。在听的细节上首先要注意学生对所听的内容有个大致的了解，第二次听或第三次听都是听取细节，因此要设计好听所需回答的问题。再次听是让学生听音跟读，旨在调动眼视听众感官深刻体会文章内容，更主要的是让学生通过跟读培养学生的语音语调，学着读出真正的地道的英语。并对学生掌握不准的词汇的读音进行学习或纠正。只有输入得好才有下一步的输出即听后的说。
StepV. Listening II
Pre-reading Activities
T: M any people like festivals very much. Do you know why?

【设计意图】在处理2a听力之前，老师就要提示学生掌握边听边记录的技巧，比如当听到地名时，可只记录其单词首字母，如把Singapore的s,Hong Kong的H ,Macao的M , 等所有内容听完后再选单词。这样既不耽误听力的顺延，又能正确完成单词的拼读。听2b听力之前，可提醒学生参照2a提供的信息，然后播放录音，学生填写对话，核对答案。
