1.整体设计思路、指导依据说明
The students of Grade 9 have been learning English for more than two years, they have learned many new words, at the same time, and they are growing up. Their physical appearance and personality have changed a lot. This class, I will guide the students to learn to describe their changes. My teaching procedures are as follows: First of all, I will review some adjectives about describing characters appearance. Then show some of my photos about four years ago, Ask students to watch carefully then tell the differences. Ask students to use “used to” to make new sentences. I think this method can inspire students ‘interest.
2.教学背景分析
教学内容分析：
A picture in Section A 1a introduces key vocabulary for students to use while practicing the new language. This class, I will let students understand what we will talk about in this unit, and know how to use “used to” to talk about. What people used to be like. Through the teaching, let students understand that people sure change.
学生情况分析：
In our class, most of students are interested in English, but many of them are really very shy. And they don’t want to speak English in class, so I will encourage them to speak English as much as they can in class, then I will teach them the best way of learning English.

Step2: Warming up.
老师说： “同学们上九年级了，现在你比前两年的你，一定有很大变化吧，老师也一样，想知道我 几年前老师是什么样子的吗？”老师出示一张几年前的照片，让学生仔细观察，说出外貌上与现在 的不同点，并试着用英语说出来。

6.教学评价设计
评价内容： 我在英语教学中采取评价内容多元化的方法，从 Emotional attitude、language knowledge 、 language skills、language strategies 等几方面着手评价。
评价方法： 我采取以下两种评价方法。
1、 小组评价法 将本班学生分成若干小组，老师布置学习任务，并让各小组协作完成，从而在竞争中评选出成绩优 异的小组，并给予奖励。
2、 分层评价法 由于学生的水平参差不齐，为了让不同层次的学生都有所获，从而树立学习信心，我采取分层次评 价法，给不同的学生不同的学习任务，鼓励其挑战自我，努力达到自己的目标。
