该部分预习内容可以帮助学生更有目的性的预习。同时通过检测学生的预习效果，教师可以

更有针对性地教，学生可以更有针对性的学。）

2. Lead in

(1) Riddle

At first, ask the Ss if they’d like to play a guessing game. Then show the Ss the riddle:

“You can see it in everyone’s home. It’s not big, but you can find 365 days in

it. What is it?”

Most of the Ss can guess the answer is “a calendar”. Then show a calendar to the

Ss and ask them:

T: What is it?

Ss: It’s a __________. (calendar日历)

T: How many months are there (有) in it?

Ss:Twelve.

T: Can you say twelve months in English?

Ss: Yes. They are _____________. (January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December)

If the Ss can’t say some of the months, the teacher can give necessary help.

(2) Play 1a and ask the Ss to listen and repeat the twelve months after the tape.

(3) Tell the Ss there are some festivals in each month. Ask the Ss to try saying which month each festival is in. The Ss may not know some of the following festivals, so the teacher can give the relative pictures and Chinese meanings to help them. With the help of the pictures and Chinese meanings, most of the Ss should be able to finish the following sentences.

*New Year’s Day is in _________. (January)

*Valentine’s Day is in __________.(February)

*Women’s Day is in ___________.(March)

* April Fool’s Day is in ___________.(April)

* Labor Day is in ___________.(May)

* Children’s Day is in __________.(June)

* Summer Holidays are in _________ and ________.(July,

August)

* Teachers’ Day is in ____________.(September)

* National Day is in ____________.(October)

* Thanksgiving Day is in ____________.(November)

* Christmas Day is in ______________.(December)

（设计说明：通过猜测有关日历的谜语，自然引出12个月份。并通过引导学生们谈论熟悉的节假日所在的月份，进一步加深了学生们对于月份的印象。）

(3) Tell the Ss that New Year’s Day is coming. Ask the Ss:

—When is New Year’s Day?

—It’s on January 1st.

The Ss may not know how to say “January 1st” in the right way, so the teacher can give necessary help. Help the Ss to know that when they talk about the day of a month, they need to use the ordinal numbers.

(4) Show the Ss a chart of the ordinal numbers’(from 1-31), and tell the Ss these are the ordinal numbers in a month and ask them to pay more attention to the last

Help the Ss to realize: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd have different last letters, comparing with the other numbers which end up with “th”.

Play 2a and ask the Ss to learn how to read the ordinal numbers in the right way after the tape.

（设计说明：通过谈论即将到来的新年，引出日期的表述方式：月份+序数词。由于本节课的教学目标要求学生能正确读出1-31内相关的序数词即可，所以在学生认读1-31内相关的序数词时，着重设计的活动是让学生首先自己观察序数词变化的相关规律，然后教师再做总

结，并播放录音让学生跟读、正音。）

(5)Tell the Ss，“New Year’s Day is very special to me. Because my birthday is on New Year’s day.”Then point to January 1st on the calendar and ask the Ss:

T: When is my birthday?

Ss: Your birthday is _________________.(on January 1st)

Help the Ss to learn to use “on ” before the date.

(6) Pairwork

Ask the Ss to talk about their birthdays with their partners. Choose two or three pairs to act out their conversations.

A: When is your birthday?

B: My birthday is on _________________.

（设计说明：通过谈论老师的生日，引导学生们运用相关句型展开对生日的讨论。从而为接下来的听力活动做好充分的语言准备。）

Step II. While-listening activities

1.Listen and find the general idea.

(1)Ask the Ss to look at the picture in 1a and tell them some children are talking about something in front of the calendar. Let them guess what the children in the picture are talking about. Some of the Ss might guess the answer: birthday. Listening Strategy: help the Ss to know they can use the given pictures and the given written message to guess the main idea.

(2)Play the tape and ask the Ss to listen to three conversations and find out: --What are the three conversations about？

--It’s about_________________.

A. the children’s birthdays.

B. the children’s good friends.

（设计说明：在听大意前，引导学生借助图片和图片上的文字信息预测对话大意，以培养学生们预测的听力策略。）

2. Listen to the conversation more carefully and find the specific ideas

(1) Ask the Ss to listen and number the conversations[1-3].

(2) Check the Ss’answers. Then play the tape again, ask the Ss to fill in the blanks with the right dates.

Conversation 2

A: _________ is your birthday, Mary?

(2) Check the Ss’answers. Then play the tape a third time, and ask the Ss to listen to the conversation and match the names, months and dates. Before listening, help the Ss to go through the names, months and dates. Ask them pay more attention to the four names.

Name Month Date

Alice July 4th

Frank August 22nd

Eric January 5th

Jane September 17th

(3)Check the Ss’ answers and ask the Ss how they find the right answers and if they get to know the answers will appear when hearing the names.

Learning Strategy: help the Ss to realize they can use names as key words to listen for answers.

(4)Then play the tape for the fourth time and finish the conversation with the right words.

Mr Smith: Now, Alice, ______ ______ are you?

Alice: I’m _______.

Mr Smith: When is your birthday?

Step V. Post-listening activities

Let the Ss use the mind map to retell 2b. First give the Ss time to practice it by themselves. Then the Ss do it with the teacher. Last choose one or two Ss to retell the conversation individually.

3. Survey

(1)Ask the Ss to work in a group of four to make a survey about the group members’birthdays. And see if they can find someone whose birthday is on the same day or in the same month.

Her birthday is…I am…My birthday is … Lucy’ and my birthday is in the same month.

(设计说明：本部分的内容重在培养学生们口头表达的能力；通过复述引导学生们更好地内化语言知识；做调查的活动方式为学生们提供了在课堂上运用目标语言的较为真实的语用机会。在调查活动中着重训练有关日期的正确表述和形容词性物主代词的使用。同时设计了一个寻找与自己生日相同的同学的任务，增加了调查活动的趣味性。)

You should also know their birthdays and remember to say “Happy Birthday” to them! （设计说明：通过让学生们完成介绍自己父母生日的作文，引导学生们意识到：父母们总是不会忘记给自己的孩子们庆祝生日；孩子们也要记得在关爱自己的父母的生日来临时，说一声：Happy birthday!）

本节课亮点：

1.导入部分，通过猜测有关日历的谜语，自然引出12个月份。并通过引导学生们谈论熟悉的节假日所在的月份，进一步加深了学生们对于月份的印象。同时，通过谈论即将到来的新年，引出日期的表述方式：月份+序数词。由于本节课的教学目标要求学生能正确读出1-31内相关的序数词即可，所以在学生认读1-31内相关的序数词时，着重设计的活动是让学生首先自己观察序数词变化的相关规律，然后教师再做总结，并播放录音让学生跟读、正音。最后，通过谈论老师的生日，引导学生们运用相关句型展开对生日的讨论。从而为接下来的听力活动做好充分的语言准备。

2.听力活动中，在听大意前，引导学生借助图片和图片上的文字信息预测对话大意，以培养学生们预测的听力策略。并培养学生们学会借助关键词，如：人名，来听寻答案。

3.听力之后的调查活动，为学生们提供了在课堂上运用目标语言的较为真实的语用机会。在调查活动中着重训练有关日期的正确表述和形容词性物主代词的使用。同时设计了一个寻找与自己生日相同的同学的任务，增加了调查活动的趣味性。

4.在读的活动中，在读大意前，先引导学生们借助已有的图片信息预测大意，从而培养学生们预测的阅读能力。本部分的内容重在培养学生们读大意,和读细节信息的能力。同时，学生通过表演和复述，可以更好的内化语言知识。

5.最后，通过让学生们完成介绍自己父母生日的作文，引导学生们意识到：父母们总是不会忘记给自己的孩子们庆祝生日；孩子们也要记得在关爱自己的父母的生日来临时，说一声：Happy birthday!

使用注意事项：

本节课是本单元的第二课时，重点引导学生们使用有关月份的名词和when引导的特殊疑问句谈论日期。学生只要能正确读出序数词即可。关于由基数词到序数词的变化规律可以在第三节语法课，再引导学生进行总结。
