2學情分析 

Resource analysis:

  The main topic of this unit is people’s birthday. Students will learn the usage of ordinal numbers and dates. At the same time, the usage of     

“when” and possessive case of nouns are taught. In unit 7, cardinal numbers are introduced, so this unit is very important in that it continues      the study of numbers and does spadework for the later use of dates.

Students analysis:

  Though students have learnt cardinal numbers in unit7, it’s still hard for students to tell the difference between cardinal numbers and ordinal     numbers. Teachers have to guide students to contrast and find the changes of the numbers. In the process of learning, students need to talk    about their own, friends’ and parents’ birthday and they will learn to show love to them. Besides, the students of Grade seven love games and   active ways of learning, therefore some games and activities are designed.
