6、ll”【设计意图：通过熟悉的图片引出单词；通过元音字母的发音，让学生明白：音节的构成主要看元音音素的多少，导出这节课的主要内容。 】Step 2 ListeningT: Turn your books to Page 101. Listen and repeat the words in Part A. Please pay attention to the number of syllables in each word.【设计意图：通过听录音，熟悉本课时的重点内容，进一步提高学生对音节的认识。 】Step 3 Practice1. Finish Part B clap twice if i
7、t has two syllables; clap three times if it has three syllables. Lets see who will always be correct.2. T: Maybe you have known something about the syllables in words. Now lets make your own conversation in pairs.A: We have fun today. I know about the syllables in words today. What about you?B: Look

Homework1. Revise what we have learnt today;2. Find more words with different syllables and make some word cards.【教学反思】
