Unit 8 When is your birthday?
一、单元教材分析
本单元主要学习日期的表达方式。本单元主要围绕“谈论日期”这一话题开展听、说、读和写的学习活动，学习序数词的构成以及运用序数词表示日期的方法；学会运用 when 引导的特殊疑问句询问日期；通过学习能掌握英语表达年、月、日的单词和句型，能够熟练地谈论各种有关日期的话题。此外，还要学习名词所有格 ( 's 所有格 ) 的构成和使用；学习询问表达年龄的句型。能够询问及表达一些常见的节日的日期。
二、单元学情分析
本单元的主题是询问和谈论日期，围绕这一主题进行一系列的交际活动，使学生掌握日期的表达法，正确使用 when 引导的特殊疑问句对日期进行询问。在学习日期的表达法时要先学习序数词的构成，学生在以前的课程里已经学习了基数词，对于两种数词之间的区别一定会令学生感到头痛，教师要引导学生运用对比的方法，找出构成规律，总结特殊变化，对比强化记忆。
三、单元教学建议
采用自主学习、小组合作探究、 Classifying ， Contrasting 和 Role—playing 的学习策略，利用教学图片、幻灯片、实物 ( 大挂历、日历 ) 或制作课件 ( 反映月份特征，课内外活动 ) 等来展开课堂教学、 Pairwork 问答式的口语交际活动或游戏等小组活动，进行 “询问和谈论日期” 的课堂教学和练习。本单元的教学法建议：语音教学——让学生进行模仿操练；词汇教学——采取情景介绍或演示对比的方式进行教学，让学生在情境中操练、理解含义．并学会运用；口语教学——采取 pairwork 问答式的口语交际活动或游戏等小组活动互相操练；听力教学——采取图文配对和对话选择的方式；写作教学——以填词、回答问题、写简单的短文为主；语法教学——总结规律、抓住特征、模仿操练。
