Unit 2 This is my sister.
一、教材分析
本单元学习的是学生最熟悉的家庭成员的称谓。通过介绍照片中的人物，帮助学生学会This/That is … , These/Those are … 以及询问人物的特殊疑问句Who is/are …?
本单元生词较多，并且也开始涉及到名词的复数形式，对学生来说有一定的难度。整个单元的都是围绕照片来谈论介绍人物的。由最初单一的家人称谓到连贯的句子、到对话、到篇章，充分体现了教材内容的渐进性和层次性，在教师的指导下学生能不断地重复掌握本单元的生词和新句型，从而达到熟练运用所学内容介绍家庭成员的目的。
本单元的教学内容为：
1. 学习介绍他人；辨认人物。
2. 学习名词：sister, mother, mom, father, dad, parent, brother, grandmother, grandma, grandfather, grandpa, grandparent, son, daughter, cousin, uncle, aunt, family, day, photo, picture, girl, dog
学习动词：have 学习代词：these, those, who
学习感叹词：well, oh, bye 学习副词： here,
学习兼类词：next adj.& n. 学习介词：of
3. 学习词组：in the first photo, in the next photo, two nice photos of my family
4. 学习句型：This/That is … These/Those are …
Who’s he/she? He/She is … Who are they? They are …
5. 了解句子：Oh, I see. Well, have a good day! Thanks! You, too.
二、教学目标
1. 通过本单元的学习，学生能用英语介绍、询问、交流家庭成员。并能用英语对每个家庭成员的关系进行思考。例如，见到father's mother,他们能很快反应出是指grandmother。同时能辨别什么时候用名词的单数形式什么时候用名词的复数形式。
2. 通过对家庭成员的学习，学生能用英语思考，并理清家庭成员之间的关系，从而激发他们对家人的热爱。
三、教学重难点：
1. 熟练掌握各家庭成员的名称，会读会说会认，并会用这些词进行交流。
2. 能正确运用所学词汇的单复数介绍他人。
