In the first year of geography, there is a world of settlements, who can say, what does it say?

Section 3 Human Settlements─The Settlement [Related Class]

Knowledge Objectives:

1. Know what is meant by settlement, and what two main types of settlements can be divided into?

2. Know the relationship between settlements and the natural environment.

3. How to deal with the development of settlements and the protection of traditional settlement architecture with cultural characteristics.

Ability Objectives:

1. By observing the main differences between rural and urban landscapes and distinguishing rural landscapes in different regions, students can develop their horizons and their ability to get geographic information from pictures.

2. By analyzing "the main factors of the formation and development of settlements" and the activity "analyzing the relationship between the dwellings in the picture and the local natural environment", students will develop the ability to comprehensively analyze the geographical elements.

Emotional Objectives:

1. Through the activity of observing various pictures, cultivate students' sentiment and stimulate their interest in learning geography.

2. To clarify the importance of protecting the world's cultural heritage through discussing the development and protection of dwellings in settlements.

Teaching focus:

1. The difference between rural and urban landscapes.

2. Settlement and environment.

3. Development and conservation of settlements.

Teaching difficulty: the main factors in the formation and development of settlements.

Time: 2 hours

Teaching aids:

Homemade slide show, video

Teaching process:

Introduction of the new lesson: Projection display: the countryside and the urban landscape, pointing to the map to explain that this is the human settlement.

Teaching New Lessons Section 3: Human Settlements - Settlements

I. The Countryside and the City

1. Instruct the students to read the first paragraph of the text,

Answer: ①What is meant by settlements? ② What are the two main types of settlements?

2. Watch the video reflecting the landscape and production life in the countryside, pasture, fishing village, forest and city

Students discuss:

①What are the differences in the production activities of the people who live in the countryside and in the city in the different types of settlements?

②Rural settlements according to the productive activities of the inhabitants of the settlement of the best brake George? The class was divided into two groups: the rural areas and the countryside. Divide the class into two groups: the rural group and the urban group. Observe the projections "Figure 4.16 and Figure 4.17"

Discuss: the main differences between the rural landscape and the urban landscape. A representative from each group will come up to the stage and point to the diagrams and describe them.

Based on the students' oral descriptions, ****the same students fill in the following table of differences between rural and urban landscapes:

Houses Roads Construction How many stores How many schools How many hospitals How much farmland There is no orchard There is no fishponds Other Differences Magnitude of Change in Natural Landscape

Intensity Height

Rural

Urban

4. Activity 2: . Village settlements around the world have different landscape characteristics. Show the village landscapes of different regions A, B, and C.

Discuss: Which is located in Asia? Which is in Europe? Which one is in Africa?

(Hint: Asian villages have large populations and denser houses in the villages; European and North American villages have smaller populations, more mechanized agriculture, and more dispersed houses in the villages; and many parts of Africa retain more primitive villages.)

Commitment: Through this part of the study, we know that not only the landscape of the countryside and the city have differences, but also even if the same countryside, the landscape of different regions is also different. Settlements are greatly influenced by natural, economic and other environments.

II. Settlements and the environment

1. Show Figure 4.19, "Major factors in the formation and development of settlements"

Discuss: Why do people choose areas with better natural conditions as settlements?

Fertile soil suitable for farming

Ample water sources (wells, springs, lakeshores, riversides, etc.)

Settlements

Flat topography

Abundant natural resources (villages, fisheries, and mines)

Convenient transportation (along transportation routes and interchanges, coastal harbors, etc.)

Figure 4.19 Major factors in the formation and development of settlements Factors

2. Show "Plains Landscape Map" and "Alpine Desert Landscape Map"

Discuss: Why are the settlements in the world more concentrated in the plains, while there are fewer or no settlements in the alpine and desert regions?

Teachers tell: at present, in some rivers in the middle and lower reaches of the region, industrial and agricultural production is more developed, the distribution of settlements is more dense; in the mountains, desert areas, the natural conditions are harsh, few or no settlements.

3. Video presentation: "Elevated houses in Southeast Asia" "villages in West Asia"

Projection: "Inuit igloos in the Arctic region", "Kilns on the Loess Plateau of China" and "Dai Bamboo Buildings in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China".

Discussion: the relationship between the dwellings and the local natural environment

Students fill in the following table according to the discussion (projected)

Local climatic characteristics, architectural characteristics of dwellings

The igloos of the Inuit in the Arctic region

Kilns on the Loess Plateau of China

The Dai Bamboo Mansions in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China

Teacher's conclusion: the natural environment of different parts of the world is not the same as the natural environment of China.

The teacher summarizes: there are great differences in the natural environment around the world, and the living customs, history, culture and religious beliefs of various ethnic groups are different, and in the process of development of the settlements, different architectural styles are often formed, and the building appearance of the settlements, building materials, etc. vary according to the environment.

Commitment: With the growth of the population and the development of society, the settlements are also changing, but some changes in the settlements have also left a lot of regrets for human beings.

Three, the development and protection of settlements

1. Guide students to read the text, divided into two large groups to discuss:

The first group discusses "What are the main manifestations of the development of settlements?"

The second group discusses "Why is it necessary to pay attention to the protection of characteristic traditional settlements and dwellings at the same time as the development of the settlements?"

2. Activity: ①Watch the video "Venice, Italy", "Lijiang Ancient City, Yunnan", "Pingyao Ancient City, Shanxi", "Jiangnan Water Town, China", and "The Water Town of Jiangnan", "The Water Town of Jiangnan, China". "Jiangnan water town - Zhouzhuang", to understand some of the traditional settlements in the world cultural heritage. ②Picture shows "Beijing Courtyard"

Discussion: What are your views on the different views and practices about courtyards in the urban construction of Beijing?

Summarize the whole lesson: Through the learning of this section, what aspects of the settlement do you know or understand? (Students summarize)

Projection: Section 3: Human Settlements

1. Use the pictures to tell the difference between urban and rural landscapes

2. Give examples to tell the relationship between settlements and the natural environment

3. Combined with the study of this section, tell your own knowledge about the protection of the World Cultural Heritage.

Consolidation exercises: complete the geography filler atlas P27

Teaching Design Ideas:

1. From the age of the first year students, respect for their language habits and aesthetic interests, the teaching of the full use of a variety of landscape pictures, videos, so that the students to see more and more to say, to increase the interest, stimulate the learning of the enthusiasm.

2. The use of discussion and comparison, carry out "activities", make full use of "activities", through the students personally see, read, brain, mouth, so that students really become the master of learning.

3. More close to the design of some of the students' lives, there is affinity for the topic, so that students to discuss, mobilize their life accumulation, triggering **** Ming, by the known lead to the unknown.
