反思：在平时的英语课堂中，特别是在课文教学环节中，学生们已经习惯了根据问题听录音再回答问题的教学模式，而且这些问题都是老师自己提出来的，长此以往，学生渐渐失去了学习的主动性。本节课在学习课文环节，我让学生先想象Peter妈妈可能会提那些问题，充分发挥学生的想象力，然后再来听录音，这样就充分激发了学生的学习积极性。另外，通过听获取问题的相关信息，从而自主解决问题，使学生有一定的成就感，对于文中不曾提到的问题，我让学生根据课文揣测，如 “ What is Peter good at?”有学生说: “ He’s good at singing.” 有学生说: “He’s good at making model planes.”说得有理有据，培养了学生的发散性思维。最后填表格进行描述环节，将这些信息综合，发展学生的语言综合应用能力。
