教师带领学生复习unit8教学活动7，同时教师应有意添入Height, Weight等项目。 Presentation
教师上课时间问学生：“Who is the tallest boy in our class? Who is the tallest girl in our class? Who is the shortest boy in our class? And who is the shortest girl in our class?”学生回答完教师的问题后，教师说：“You don’t have to worry about your height. Some of you grow earlier. Some of you grow later. But all of you will grow.”教师接着找两个男同学到前面站在一排，然后让大家说：“Who is taller? XXX is taller than XXX.”老师接着问：“Who is shorter? XXX is shorter than XXX.”这两个同学回座位后，教师继续找两个女生到前面，并用同样的方式来问大家。但教师要注意不要用fatter这个单词在女同学身上造句。教师给示范学生比较级的意思后，可以先让学生打开教材并看教材上的主图。首先，教师拿图中的两个同学举例问大家：“Who is taller, Sue or Fred? Who is shorter, Ann or Daisy?”
然后，教师让同学两人一组也问类似的问题，每个同学都练习几个甚至更多的问题。等大家都能比较熟练地问问题的时候，教师让大家继续说下面的动物提问题：“Which animal is taller, the bear or the cat?”
此时，教师仍需给学生大量练习的机会，以便让大家掌握形容词比较级的用法。 最后，教师带着大家一起学习数字的读法。教材可以多在黑板上写一些数字，让学生
反复练习。
听力原文：
Look at those students. They are very lovely. They are the students of Class One, Grade Three. They are now standing in the playground. First, let’s look at the boys. Who is very tall? Sam is very tall. Bill is a little shorter than Sam. And Ben is the shortest of all the five boys. John is the tallest of them all. Now let’s have a look at the girls. Who is the tallest of the girls? It’s very hard to tell because Sally is just as tall as Jane. But they are taller than other girls. Sue is taller than Ann. Daisy is taller than Sue. So Ann is the shortest of all the girls. Now you know who is the tallest boy and who are the tallest girls. Who is the shortest girl and who is the shortest boy?

单元教学活动2 Look, point and say.
第二部分是形容词比较级的句型练习。教师可以先带着大家说例句，然后让两人一组边指认边说句子。比如A说：“This bear is short.”B说：“But this bear is shorter.”A继续说：“This duck is small.”B说：“This duck is smaller.”以次类推共同完成此部分的练习。学生做得比熟练之后教师可以造些一些新句子：My pencil is short. My bag is small. My coat is small.然后，让学生根据教师提供的句子继续完成另一半。
单元教学活动3 Ask and answer in pairs.
第三部分是问答训练。两个学生仍然要根据所给的句型进行练习。教师要想让学生比较熟练地说出这些句子，就必须首先带领学生反复说这些句子。学生说熟之后就比较容易上口。

单元教学活动7 Look, match, write and say.
第七部分是一种固定的表达方式，如同树一样。教师让大家先朗读句子，并猜出句子的大意是什么，然后从上面的一行中选用一个词，再从下面的词中选用一个词，并套用as?as? 的短语，将其填入后再反复朗读该句子，猜其意思是什么。教师给出答案之后，学生仍需反复朗读这些句子以达到熟练的程度。
答案是：
1 ) as red as an apple 2 ) as happy as a bird 3 ) as quite as a mouse 4 ) as white as snow 5 ) as cold as ice 6 ) as big as an elephant 7 ) as black as a sheep 8 ) as green as grass 9 ) as small as a pea

教师带领学生复习Unit9单元教学活动2,听写 Presentation
上课时，教师首先问大家：“Do you know how tall Mr. Yao Ming is?”大家说出姚明的身高后，教师问：“Is he the tallest person in China? Is he the tallest person in the world?”如果大家说：“No.”教师接着问：“Who is the tallest person in China? Do you know?”如果有学生事先看了书说出了答案，教师应表现很高兴的样子说：“Very good. I know where you’ve got the information. You’ve read our books. That’s very good. You’ve read something from our textbooks. He is the tallest man in China. He is 2.36 metres tall.”
教师继续问大家：“Now let me ask you another question. Have you heard of the shortest woman in China? How short is she? She is only 79 centimetres (cm) tall.” 教师问完之后：“In the world, there are many things which cannot be compared with. But we do have some first ones. Please open your books and look at the figures and the facts. Let’s do a listening test. Please listen to the tape. When you hear a description, you quickly find the place and put a number on it. For example, if you first hear ‘The tallest snowman is 22 metres’, you quickly put a number 1 on the snowman. Do you understand?”教师说完之后给学生放录音，然后让学生把图都编上号。等全都写上号后，教师让学生再听一遍，以便熟悉内容。之后，教师要带着学生反复朗读这些句子。只有通过朗读学生才能记住一些信息，才能用这些信息去交流。因此，教师要先加强学生朗读。教师可以给学生几分钟的时间自己朗读，然后再进行比赛。
比赛时，教师叫一位同学的名字，然后说出行何一个号，该学生就开始朗读那段话。教师也可以把段落的号写在一张纸上，然后让学生自己抓号，念自己抓的那段内容。
