课后反思：
本节课的重点内容是有关生日的交际用语，所涉及最多的就是日期的表达方法。我把这一课时作为第二课时来讲，就是为了让学生能够在充分了解日期的表达的基础上接触本节课，从而降低学习的难度。
在整节课的设计上，我采取了由童话故事“阿拉丁神灯”这个主线贯穿整节课，引导学生在每完成一个任务时都能得到相应的鼓励，更有效的激发学生的学习热情。在处理本节课的重点句子及知识点的时候，我采取的方式是对话，由我跟学生的对话导入到重点知识的学习，目的是为了让一切显得顺其自然。在课文的导入方面，我由“阿拉丁神灯”的一个奖励，导入到课文动画片的欣赏，让学生一边放松，一边接触新的内容。在课文的学习过程中，我主要还是采取了看动画回答问题、打开书本填空这些形式。
但整节课下来，我自己的一个感觉就是好像缺了点什么，缺了什么又说不上来。但我认识到以下几个问题：
1.导入。在导入方面花的时间太过长了些。有些话其实可以完全省了，也能达到预想的效果。
2.在rhyme的学习过程中，注入太多时间。给学生讲解了这个rhyme最后押的是什么韵，但我觉得这个后来加入的东西，刚好为最后学习wait这个词做了很好的铺垫，让学生更清楚的认识到了wait的发音。
3.内容相对重复。在讲授My birthday’s coming soon. 以及Would you like to come to my birthday party?时，我反复在问学生When is your birthday? 而这些句子在Free talk这个环节也已经反复操练。
4.课文的学习上是最大的遗憾。由于前面花费的时间太多了，导致后面课文的学习，显得很长促，学生不能很好的接触到课文的学习，就已经到了最后的fill in the blanks 的总结部分。
5.最后的拓展部分也没能想出更好的办法。
语篇教学是个难题，但也是个值得挑战的部分。只要肯下功夫，肯定会有更好的办法来让学生学得更好，学得更轻松的！

课后反思讲得太好了，同感啊

导入很新颖，却有可能花费很多时间，会影响后面的课文教学，但是如果学生的积极性没被调动，效果又不理想，这个度不易把握啊
