Unit4  How  often  do  you  exercise?

                                     (SectionB & Selfcheck)

一、教材分析

Section B是在对Section A 进行了感知和体验的基础上，更进一步落实听、说、读、写的训练，从而达到学以至用的目的。Section B主要是围绕“healthy lifestyle”的话题，在Section A“exercise”话题基础上的延伸，旨在教育学生要有一个健康的生活习惯，才能有一个健康的体魄。听力和对话主要练习“how often”句型，3a部分知识点较多，应作为重点讲授对象。Selfcheck是对整个单元知识内容的复习，两部分都以练习的形式对单词和频度副词进行了巩固和运用。SectionB & Selfcheck分两课时，Section B 1a-3a和Section B 3a-Selfcheck 2
