     斜着剪:平行四边形      └正方形强调:我们先研究具有代表性的长方形与圆柱的关系.(2)、寻求发现.展开的长方形的长和宽与圆柱的关系.①、师生一起把展开的长方形还原成圆柱的侧面,再展开,在重复操作中观察。②、同学交流后说出自己的发现:这个长方形的长就是圆柱底面的周长,宽就是圆柱的高。(3)、延伸发现.展开的平行四边形的底和高及正方形的边长与圆柱的关系。①、讨论:平行四边形能否通过什么方法转化成长方形?②、想一想:当圆柱底面周长与高相等时,侧面展开图是什么形?③、引导小结:不管侧面怎样剪,得到各种图形,都能通过割补的方法转化成长方形.其中正方形是特殊的长方形.三、巩固练习1、做第11页“做一做”的第2题。2、做第15页练习二的第3题。教师行间巡视,对有困难的学生及时辅导。3、做第15页练习二的第4题。四、布置作业完成《冠魔新干线》第3页的练习。板书:┌长方形沿高剪┤

答:它的体积是105立方厘米。②、2.1米=210厘米 V=Sh50×210=10500(立方厘米) 答:它的体积是10500立方厘米。③、50平方厘米=0.5平方米 V=Sh0.5×2.1=1.05(立方米) 答:它的体积是1.05立方米。④、50平方厘米=0.005平方米 V=Sh0.005×2.1=0.0105(立方米)

第六课时2、圆锥(1)圆锥的认识教学内容:教科书P23-26的内容,P24“做一做”,完成练习四的第1、2题。知识与技能:认识圆锥,圆锥的高和侧面,掌握圆锥的特征,会看圆锥的平面图,会正确测量圆锥的高,能根据实验材料正确制作圆锥。过程与方法:通过动手制作圆锥和测量圆锥的高,培养学生的动手操作能力和一定的空间想象能力。情感态度与价值观:培养学生的自主探索意识,激发学生强烈的求知欲望。教学重点:掌握圆锥的特征。教学难点:正确理解圆锥的组成。教学过程:一、复习1、圆柱体积的计算公式是什么?2、圆柱的特征是什么?二、新课、1、圆锥的认识(1)、让学生拿着圆锥模型观察和摆弄后,指定几名学生说出自己观察的结果,从而使学生认识到圆锥有一个曲面,一个顶点和一个面是圆的,等等。(2)、圆锥有一个顶点,它的底面是一个圆、(在图上标出顶点,底面及其圆心O)(3)、圆锥有一个曲面,圆锥的这个曲面叫做侧面。(在图上标出侧面)(4)让学生看着教具,指出:从圆锥的顶点到底面圆心的距离叫做高。(沿着曲面上的线都不是圆锥的高,由于圆锥只有一个顶点,所以圆锥只有一条高)2、小结圆锥的特征(可以启发学生总结),强调底面和高的特点,使学生弄清圆锥的特征是:底面是圆,侧面是一个曲面,有一个顶点和一条高.3、测量圆锥的高由于圆锥的高在它的内部,我们不能直接量出它的长度,这就需要借助一块平板来测量。(1)、先把圆锥的底面放平;134inQuebec AgroupofverycoldtouristsaresittinginacafeinoldQuevec,drinkinghorcoffeetotrytowarmup.Thetemperatureis32degreesbelowfreezing.Thewindowsarecoberedwithsteamfromtheheatinside.Outside,snowcoversthestreetsandispiledupalongthesidewalks.ThemusicandlightsoftheCarnivalcontinue,butafterawholedayofwatchingparades,ridinginhorsecarriagesandlisteningtothemusic,theirfeetarefreezingandtheirnosesarered. Everyyear,hundredsofthousandsofpeoplecometoQuebectotakepartintheweel-longwinterfestival,thebiggestintheworld.Everyonewhocomesmustbepreparedtokeepmoving.Asitistoocoldtostandandwatchforlong. Earlyinthemorning,youcanwatchthesnowboardingcompetitionsonthehilloverlookingtheriver.Competitorsspeeddownthetrackandthroughtheairasthoughtheycouldfly. Themorebraveofheartmaytrythecanoeraces.Fiveorsixmenpaddleeachcanoeacrossthepartly-frozenStLawrenceRiver.Theriverisfullofbigpiecesofice,andifyouweretofallin,youwouldfreezeinlessthantwominutes. Onofthefavouriteeventsisthedog-sledrace,inwhichteamsofaboutsixhuskydogsplllongsledsatgreatspeedsalongasnowytrack.Onepersonrunsbehindthesled,shoutingtothedogstoencoutagethem.Thesoundofthedogsbarking,thecallsofthedriversandtheshoutsofcrowdmakeanexcitingNothernexperience.Thedogsarebeautifulstronganimals,withlong,thickfurandmanywithblueeyes. Whileadmiringtheicesculpturesecerywhereinthecity,muchlikethoseinHarbininChina,youcanstopwithothertouristsinaniglooforhotteaorcoffee.Itisamazinghowwarmtheseicehowsescanbe! Lateintheevening,youcangotothesnowpalace,whereBonhommethesnowmanisking,andjointhecrowd.Youcandanceoutsidetothemusicofaband,whoarealldressedinheavyclothes–evensometheirinstrumentsaredressedupforwinter. Finally,youwillprobablywanttositdowninacafewowarmupantoplantomorrow.Youmightjointhesnowmobileraces–ormaybeyoushouldjustsleepin! Unit2 COMEANDEATHERE(1) WangPengsatinhisemptyrestaurantfeelingveryfrustrated.Ithadbeenaverystrangemorning.Usuallyhegotupearlyandpreparedhismenuofbarbecuedmuttonkebabs,roastpork,stir-friedvegetablesandfriedrice.Thenbylunchtimetheywouldallbesold.Bynowhisrestaurantoughttobefullofpeople.Butnottoday!Whywasthat?Whatcouldhavehappened?Hethoughtofhismutton,beefandbaconcookedinthehottest,finestoil.Hiscolawassugaryandcold,andhisicecreamwasmadeofmilk,creamanddeliciousfruit.“Nothingcouldbebetter,”hethought.SuddenlyhesawhisfriendLiChanghurryingby.“Hello,LaoLi,”hecalled,“Yourusual?”ButLiChangseemednottohear.Whatwasthematter?SomethingterriblemusthavehappenedifLiChangwasnotcomingtoeatinhisrestaurantashealwaysdid. WangPengfollowedLiChangintoanewsmallrestaurant.Hesawasigninthewindow. Tiredofallthatfat?Wanttoloseweight? ComeinsideYongHui’sslimmingrestaurant. Onlyslimmingfoodsservedhere. Makeyourselfthinagain. CuriositydroveWangPenginside.Itwasfullofpeople.Thehostess,averythinladycameforward.“Welcome,”shesaid.“MynameisYongHui.I’llhelpyouloseweightandbefitintwoweeksifyoueathereeveryday.”ThenshegaveamenutoWangPeng.Therewerefewchoicesoffoodanddrinkonit:justrice,rawvegetablesservedinvinegar,fruitandwater.WangPengwasamazedatthisandespeciallyattheprices.Itcostmorethanagoodmealinhisrestaurant!Hecouldnotbelievehiseyes.Hethrewdownthemenuandhurriedoutside.Onhiswayhomehethoughtabouthisownmenu.Diditmakepeoplefat?Perhapsheshouldgotothelibraryandfindout.HecouldnothaveYongHuigettingawaywithtellingpeoplelies!Hehadbetterdosomeresearch! AtthelibraryWangPengwassurprisedtofindthathisrestaurantservedfartoomuchfatandYongHui’sfartoolittle.EventhoughhercustomersmightgetthinaftereatingYongHui’sfood,theywerenoteatingenoughenergy-givingfoodtokeepthemfit.Theywouldbecometiredveryquickly.WangPengfeltmorehopefulashedrovebackhome.Perhapswithadiscountandanewsignhecouldwinhiscustomersback!Sohewrote: Wanttofeelfitandenergetic? Comeandeathere!Discountstoday! Ourfoodgivesyouenergyallday! Thecompetitionbetweenthetworestaurantswason!  COMEANDEATHERE(2) Aweeklater,WangPeng’srestaurantwasnearlyfullandhefelthappier.Perhapshewouldbeabletoearnhislivingafterallandnothavetoclosehisrestaurant.Hedidnotlookforwardtobeingindebtbecausehisrestaurantwasnolongerpopular.HesmiledashewelcomedsomecustomerswarmlyatthedoorbutthesmilelefthisfacewhenhesawYongHuiwalkingin.Shedidnotlookhappybutglaredathim.“MayIaskwhatyouweredoinginmyrestauranttheotherday?IthoughtyouwereanewcustomerandnowIknowthatyouonlycameonlytospyonmeandmymenu,”sheshouted.“Pleaseexcuseme,”hecalmlyexplained,“Iwantedtoknowwhereallmycustomershadgonelastweek.Ifollowedoneofthemandfoundtheminyourrestau

基本素质。现在我还要测试一下你们是否具有解决实际问题的能力。1、要在这个运动场铺20厘米厚的煤渣,一共需要多少立方米的煤渣呢?学生计算,指名汇报。2、要在4条跑道上铺设塑胶,每平方米价格是170元,一共需要多少钱?计算学生汇报思路,明确思路后独立计算。同学们能够出色的解决实际问题,已经具备了当设计师的第二项条件,接下来,还要考验你们的设计能力,准备好了吗?(三)设计运动场1、要在这个运动场设计100米的赛跑的起跑线,设计在哪?怎么设计呢?学生讨论,并在图纸上标出起跑线。学生汇报。如果出现起跑线都在同一直线上的情况,提示:如果你站在这个赛场比赛,你会选择哪个跑道?为什么?每个跑道的长度都相等吗?如果要使比赛公平,应该怎样设计起跑线?(根据每个跑道的差,从内圈开始,每个跑道向前移一定的距离。)到底向前移多长的距离是最公平的呢?(第二道应该在第一道前面的3.14米处)照这样计算,第三道、第四道100米跑的起跑线在哪里?2、如果是200米赛跑,应该怎样确定各跑道的起跑线?(应该是每个跑道向前移6.28米处)3、运动场内还可以设计其他什么运动设施?如:小足球场、跳远沙坑、跳高场地等三、总结全课134inQuebec AgroupofverycoldtouristsaresittinginacafeinoldQuevec,drinkinghorcoffeetotrytowarmup.Thetemperatureis32degreesbelowfreezing.Thewindowsarecoberedwithsteamfromtheheatinside.Outside,snowcoversthestreetsandispiledupalongthesidewalks.ThemusicandlightsoftheCarnivalcontinue,butafterawholedayofwatchingparades,ridinginhorsecarriagesandlisteningtothemusic,theirfeetarefreezingandtheirnosesarered. Everyyear,hundredsofthousandsofpeoplecometoQuebectotakepartintheweel-longwinterfestival,thebiggestintheworld.Everyonewhocomesmustbepreparedtokeepmoving.Asitistoocoldtostandandwatchforlong. Earlyinthemorning,youcanwatchthesnowboardingcompetitionsonthehilloverlookingtheriver.Competitorsspeeddownthetrackandthroughtheairasthoughtheycouldfly. Themorebraveofheartmaytrythecanoeraces.Fiveorsixmenpaddleeachcanoeacrossthepartly-frozenStLawrenceRiver.Theriverisfullofbigpiecesofice,andifyouweretofallin,youwouldfreezeinlessthantwominutes. Onofthefavouriteeventsisthedog-sledrace,inwhichteamsofaboutsixhuskydogsplllongsledsatgreatspeedsalongasnowytrack.Onepersonrunsbehindthesled,shoutingtothedogstoencoutagethem.Thesoundofthedogsbarking,thecallsofthedriversandtheshoutsofcrowdmakeanexcitingNothernexperience.Thedogsarebeautifulstronganimals,withlong,thickfurandmanywithblueeyes. Whileadmiringtheicesculpturesecerywhereinthecity,muchlikethoseinHarbininChina,youcanstopwithothertouristsinaniglooforhotteaorcoffee.Itisamazinghowwarmtheseicehowsescanbe! Lateintheevening,youcangotothesnowpalace,whereBonhommethesnowmanisking,andjointhecrowd.Youcandanceoutsidetothemusicofaband,whoarealldressedinheavyclothes–evensometheirinstrumentsaredressedupforwinter. Finally,youwillprobablywanttositdowninacafewowarmupantoplantomorrow.Youmightjointhesnowmobileraces–ormaybeyoushouldjustsleepin! Unit2 COMEANDEATHERE(1) WangPengsatinhisemptyrestaurantfeelingveryfrustrated.Ithadbeenaverystrangemorning.Usuallyhegotupearlyandpreparedhismenuofbarbecuedmuttonkebabs,roastpork,stir-friedvegetablesandfriedrice.Thenbylunchtimetheywouldallbesold.Bynowhisrestaurantoughttobefullofpeople.Butnottoday!Whywasthat?Whatcouldhavehappened?Hethoughtofhismutton,beefandbaconcookedinthehottest,finestoil.Hiscolawassugaryandcold,andhisicecreamwasmadeofmilk,creamanddeliciousfruit.“Nothingcouldbebetter,”hethought.SuddenlyhesawhisfriendLiChanghurryingby.“Hello,LaoLi,”hecalled,“Yourusual?”ButLiChangseemednottohear.Whatwasthematter?SomethingterriblemusthavehappenedifLiChangwasnotcomingtoeatinhisrestaurantashealwaysdid. WangPengfollowedLiChangintoanewsmallrestaurant.Hesawasigninthewindow. Tiredofallthatfat?Wanttoloseweight? ComeinsideYongHui’sslimmingrestaurant. Onlyslimmingfoodsservedhere. Makeyourselfthinagain. CuriositydroveWangPenginside.Itwasfullofpeople.Thehostess,averythinladycameforward.“Welcome,”shesaid.“MynameisYongHui.I’llhelpyouloseweightandbefitintwoweeksifyoueathereeveryday.”ThenshegaveamenutoWangPeng.Therewerefewchoicesoffoodanddrinkonit:justrice,rawvegetablesservedinvinegar,fruitandwater.WangPengwasamazedatthisandespeciallyattheprices.Itcostmorethanagoodmealinhisrestaurant!Hecouldnotbelievehiseyes.Hethrewdownthemenuandhurriedoutside.Onhiswayhomehethoughtabouthisownmenu.Diditmakepeoplefat?Perhapsheshouldgotothelibraryandfindout.HecouldnothaveYongHuigettingawaywithtellingpeoplelies!Hehadbetterdosomeresearch! AtthelibraryWangPengwassurprisedtofindthathisrestaurantservedfartoomuchfatandYongHui’sfartoolittle.EventhoughhercustomersmightgetthinaftereatingYongHui’sfood,theywerenoteatingenoughenergy-givingfoodtokeepthemfit.Theywouldbecometiredveryquickly.WangPengfeltmorehopefulashedrovebackhome.Perhapswithadiscountandanewsignhecouldwinhiscustomersback!Sohewrote: Wanttofeelfitandenergetic? Comeandeathere!Discountstoday! Ourfoodgivesyouenergyallday! Thecompetitionbetweenthetworestaurantswason!  COMEANDEATHERE(2) Aweeklater,WangPeng’srestaurantwasnearlyfullandhefelthappier.Perhapshewouldbeabletoearnhislivingafterallandnothavetoclosehisrestaurant.Hedidnotlookforwardtobeingindebtbecausehisrestaurantwasnolongerpopular.HesmiledashewelcomedsomecustomerswarmlyatthedoorbutthesmilelefthisfacewhenhesawYongHuiwalkingin.Shedidnotlookhappybutglaredathim.“MayIaskwhatyouweredoinginmyrestauranttheotherday?IthoughtyouwereanewcustomerandnowIknowthatyouonlycameonlytospyonmeandmymenu,”sheshouted.“Pleaseexcuseme,”hecalmlyexplained,“Iwantedtoknowwhereallmycustomershadgonelastweek.Ifollowedoneofthemandfoundtheminyourrestaurant.Idon’twanttoupsetyou,butIfoundyourmenusolimitedthatIstoppedworryingandstartedadvertisingthebenef
