　　Starter Unit 2  What's this in English?
　　课程目标
　　一、知识和能力目标
　　本单元的核心教学内容是“认物”。用英语确认周围的常见事物比较符合英语初学者的实际情况。通过本单元教学，使学生运用所学句型，去熟悉周围事物的名称；教学生学会在实际生活中如何确认事物。通过辨认物体，学生学到一些生词，并巩固所学句型。
　　二、过程和方法目标
　　教师要尽量使学生对课文中出现的句型能够熟练上口，这样，学生才能顺利开展比较灵活的对话。教师可以用手势，表情，动作等示意，帮助学生听懂课堂教学内容，但在实际操作中应尽量避免“明知故问”的倾向，应该采用应用性原则；如：遮盖物品、显露局部、辨认物体、完形识别、图形辨认等方法。
　　三、情感态度和价值观目标
　　目标在学生学习过程中的作用至关重要，教师要帮助他们建立起一个切合自己实际的目标，通过渐进的学习以及一点一滴的进步，使他们逐步建立起成功感。成功越多，自信心就越强。
　　学情分析
　　代词this，that和it的用法。
　　this和that均指单数的事物。this指处于说话者近处的事物；that指处于说话者远处的事物。而it则指代上文出现的单数的事物，也可指代上文出现的this或that。例如：
　　A：What’s this? 这是什么?
　　B：It’s a pen．这是支钢笔。
　　c：And what’s that over there? 那边的是什么?
　　B：It’s a ruler．那是把尺子。
