Starter Unit 1 Good morning!
一、教材分析
预备篇的主要内容为 26 个字母和最基本的英语日常用语。教材的编写主要是帮助那些没有英语基础的学生更好地使用本套教材，同时又帮助有一点基础的学生尽快熟悉教材中的人物，激发他们的自信心，增强说英语的兴趣。

本单元的教学内容为：

1. 学习 Aa–Hh 八个字母。

2. 学习八个人名。Alice, Bob, Cindy, Dale, Eric, Frank, Grace, Helen

3. 学习打招呼的用语：
Hello!/Good morning!/Good afternoon!/Good evening!

4. 学会问候熟识的朋友和应答：

-- How are you?

-- I’m fine, thanks. How are you?

-- I’m OK.

二、教学设计思路

本教材主要是根据学生的认知特点和学生的实际水平来编写的，不仅帮助学生学会一些语言基础知识，更重要的是培养和发展学生的语言运用能力。每个单元都围绕一个中心话题来设计不同的任务，让学生通过“Learn by doing. Learn by using.”来完成。对教师来说，有更大的自由度来灵活运用教材，为自己的学生来量身定做学习方案。 本单元是为初学者准备的入门单元，总体内容不多，也不是很难，关键是做好一个衔接工作，根据学生的认知特点和心理特点，通过多样化的、趣味性的学习活动，让没基础的同学克服心里的畏难情绪，感觉到英语不难又很有趣；让有基础的同学更进一步培养起对英语学习的兴趣和自信。
