About the topic and the structures

单元话题和结构

本单元的话题是First aid/急救，学习各种情形下的急救常识；单元句法项目是“省略”。

教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致，即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中，我们建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排的因素，对课本、对教学设计重新划分课时、裁剪、拼接使用我们提供的材料，以便“物尽所用”，达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照我们提出的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。

Period 1

Reading 

阅读课

Warming Up 部分教师可以选择 Warming up by describing, Warming up by discussing 或者Warming up by talking about first aid situations形式激发背景知识、为其后的阅读作好词语、结构和心理的准备。

教师可补充：急救电话：火警台119，报警台110，医疗急救台120， 邻居电话号码，辖区内派出所的电话号码，附近医院的电话号码，熟悉的医生的电话号码。

Pre-reading学生看图回答“家庭急救”方面的问题，如“煤气泄露急救”：首先关闭液化器的总阀门,然后打开窗户和门,让空气流通,此其间禁止任何烟火,迅速打电话给相关部门,请求排除液化器的故障。

Reading是篇说明文，简要说明了生活中常见的烧伤及急救现象，引导学生从形式和内容两方面阅读文本，提高对说明文文体的认识，同时了解急救常识：小面积的I、II度烧伤，可用清洁的冷水浸泡或用自来水冲洗30分钟至1小时，冲洗后创面涂烧伤膏或消炎药膏。如皮肤已破，不要随便冲洗，应去医院包扎。面积较大的烧伤，在现场进行简单的急救处理后应尽快送医院治疗。

Period 2

Learning about language

知识课

Learning about language第一部分是词法训练，强化学生对本单元重点词汇、短语的掌握和实用；第二部分是句法训练，进一步强化学生对英语“省略”现象的理解和运用。

Period 3

Using language

运用课

Using language重点是阅读“英雄少年受到表彰”，拓展对“急救”的认识；“听、说、写”部分依然围绕“急救”展开。口语、书面语部分设计了一个看图说、写“急救”的情景。

实际教学过程课时划分建议

Period 1

将Warming Up、 Pre-reading、Reading和Comprehending整合在一起上一节“阅读课”。

Period 2

将Learning about language 和Workbook中的 USING WORDS AND EXPRESSIONS、USING STRUCTURES 整合在一起上一节“语言知识课”。

Period 3

将Using language 设计为一节包括听说读写单项技能或组合技能训练的“综合技能课（一）”。

Period 4

将Workbook 的READING AND LISTENING和TALKING整合在一起上一节“听说课”。

Period 5

将Workbook 的LISTENING TASK、READING AND WRITING TASK和  SPEAKING TASK整合为一节“综合技能课（二）”。

Because in a third degree burn the nerves have been damages. If there are no nerves, there is no pain.

Why do you think clothes and jewelry near burns should be removed?

Because bacteria from the clothes and jewelry could infect the burns.

Because all the layers of the skin have been burnt showing the tissue underneath.
