T: Boys and girls, we will have an English class meeting today. Let’s talk about your future. What do you want to be? What would you like to be in the future? Circle the picture, please.(让学生圈出各自理想中的职业)
OK. What do you want to be, S1? Can you tell us?

T: Sounds great.(竖起大拇指夸学生) Would you like to be a scientist and study the stars?
S1: Yes. I would like to be a scientist. / I would like to study the stars.
T: What would you like to be, S2?

结合学生对语言知识的运用情况与学生进行自由地交流，也可以帮助学生回答，引导学生尽量回答完整，并尽可能多地重复would you like ...和课文中将要出现的语句，加深学生的理解。之后，让学生根据圈选结果进行会话。
(1)新课展示Part A Let’s learn
1. 教授词组study the stars, land on the moon, travel around the world, become a tour guide和go to college。
教师借助课件和图片，讲述“我的梦想”，尽可能真实地将五个词组串起来。以下内容可供教师参考：
(1)课件展示句型I wanted to ...并做陈述：
T: when I was 12.I wanted to be a scientist. I liked little stars very much. I watched the little stars in the sky and wondered what they are. I wanted to study the stars.课件同步呈现短语study the stars和图片。
(2) T: I wanted to study the stars. I wanted to fly up to the sky. I wanted to land on the moon.
课件呈现航天员登上月球的图片，引出词组land on the moon，引导学生先发好land的音，并记住意思“落地、着陆”，从而记住整个词组。
(3) T: When I was sixteen，I hoped to become a tour guide because I hoped to travel around Shanxi Province, and I hoped to travel around the world.
课件中在wanted旁边出现hoped，以示意思相近。
课件出示导游图片，教师也可手拿旅行社的旗子帮助学生理解，课件出示所在省份的著名景点和相应表达，继而呈现词组travel around the world。领读几遍，并鼓励加以运用，如：

(4) T: When I was 18, I wanted to go to college.
课件同步呈现某一知名师范大学的背景和go to college短语。
T: I wanted to go to college because I wanted to be a teacher.
2. 带领学生再次回顾自己不同年龄段的梦想，进行这五个词组的学习。学生跟读，并尝试用I want to ... 练习、巩固这五个词组。教师在确保大部分学生已经掌握了五个词组之后，引导学生根据实际情况更真实地表述各自的梦想，如：
S1: I want to become a police officer.
S2:1 want to travel around Beijing.
S3:1 want to go to Tsinghua College (University).
（可以适当为学生讲解这两个单词的区别，让学生有所了解）
S4: I want to study the...
教师可结合学生的回答，与他们谈论更多关于理想的话题，在拉近师生间距离的同时有效延伸课本知识。
3. 教授词组join the National Team
课件呈现姚明进人国家队的图片，并用He wanted to join the National Team. He wanted to join the Basketball Team of China. 帮助学生理解National Team的意思。
在确保学生能顺利说出短语之后，引导学生用更丰富的语言表述其梦想。
S1: I want to join the National Swimming Team.
S2:I want to land on Mars. （Mars之前没有the，教师可用repeat的方式纠正）

S1:I want to be a scientist.(引导学生回答)
T: Sounds great. But it’s not easy to be a scientist.(用手势环绕全班所有的人，并摇头) The dream is very difficult to come true.(面露难色) You must study hard.(握拳做努力状) Maybe you will make your dream come true one day, and you will become a scientist.(用肯定、激励的眼神看着学生)
板书并领读短语come true。
T: What’s your dream, S1?
S2: I want to be a ...
T: Why?
S2: Because ...（根据学生应用英语的能力与学生进行交流，也可以帮助学生回答，为学生提供更丰富的话题，并为后续的教学做铺垫）
