必修模块 2
Unit 2
Period 5（教案）
一、教学课型：综合技能课
二、教学内容分析
“语言运用”
（Using Language）部分通过一个希腊神话故事来引导学生进行听说
读写的综合训练。宗教和神话传说源远流长是人类最初的文学形态，而希腊神话是西
方文明的摇篮。本课时的教学对学生了解西方文化和英语语言发展是很有帮助的。
三、教学设计的总体思路
在多媒体教学环境下，先让学生了解一些希腊神话中的著名人物及故事。而后展
示 Hippomenes, the Greek Goodness of love 和 Atlanta 的图片，让学生对他们之间所发
生的故事进行推测，通过阅读课文验证学生自己的推测。并再激发学生对故事结局了
解的好奇心，引导学生通过听来验证。最后让事先准备好的 4 个同学表演这个课本剧，
这更激发了学生的学习兴趣，以及对西方文化有更深的了解。
