设计说明:使用“以旧引新”策略,把课文中要求学生掌握的句型、语法,通过与旧知识结合和预习题的形式呈现给学生,让学生通过做预习题找出问题,为上新课排除了语法障碍,同时教师通过对预习题的检查也可以提高阅读课堂教学的针对性。
(3)思考并在小组内调查下面几个问题:
What activities/courses have you ever attended?
Where have you gone?
How long has it lasted?
设计说明:本环节设计以小组为单位,对学生参加活动或课程学习的情况展开调查,并以语篇的形式在组内交流调查结果,旨在让学生结合自身的生活实际,激活与阅读文章相关的背景知识。
2.后教
(1)Skimming.
Read the text quickly and match the titles with the paragraphs.(让学生自主快速阅读课文,启发引导学生抓住本文Main idea和各段的Topic sentence。)
设计说明:本环节训练学生快速阅读并通过寻找主题句的策略抓住文章的主旨大意和各段的中心思想。
(2)Scanning.
Read the text carefully and do True or False correct.
①If you come to Los Angeles,you can experience life in England.( )
②Some families create friendships with the students which last along time.( )
③You live and have meals with an American family,do some activities with them and take part in American life.( )
④There are few things to do in LA.( )
设计说明:本环节设计的目的在于培养学生捕捉具体信息及重要信息的能力,使其更为深入地理解课文中的细节信息。
(3)Fill in the form.
Suppose you replanning to attend a course,fill in the form.
e.g. My name is…I’m a student of…My e-mail address is…. I’d like to start the course on…It can last for… I’d like to study with…It would be better if I can live…because I can…I want to take trips to.
设计说明:本环节采用小组合作学习的形式,先让学生自己填写好,然后在4人小组内进行交流,再选出学生代表进行组际间的交流。
3.拓展
(1)任务型配对阅读。
有同学在学习英语时遇到了以下三个问题,请为每个问题选择最合适的办法。
问题:
①I read very slowly especially when there are many new words.
②I’m afraid to speak in class because I’m afraid of making mistakes.
③I always write Chinglish but not real English. I can’t use the right English words or use big words that are not necessary at all.
解决方法:
④Find a penpal. You can make pen-friends who are from English-speaking countries, so you may write letters in English often. Maybe your penpal can help you improve your English,
⑤Try to be more outgoing . Don’t be afraid of in English learning. Everybody makes mistakes. It is not a big deal to make mistakes in front of your classmates who may do the same thing.
⑥Have some good reading habits. First,you have to find out why you can’t read fast like others. Do you always read in a right way that is the same as you are reading your mother language?
设计说明:本环节采用了任务型的阅读,要求学生阅读后完成相应的任务。同时,通过帮助同学寻找解决学习英语时遇到问题的办法,让同学意识到在平时学习过程中应养成良好的学习习惯。
(2)Write about a course learning Chinese in Yi wu.
e.g. There are four classes a day. They last…Students live…or…There are many things to do in…For example,all the students have a wonderful time learning Chinese in…
设计说明:本环节利用阅读素材设计一些同步的写作活动,使阅读与写作很好地结合在一起,这样有助于学生逐步在语言训练中学会使用语言。
分析:该阅读教学实践从课前预习(先学)、课堂教学实施(后教)到课后拓展三方面,呈现了三个自主学习环节、三个后教环节、两个拓展环节。
(1)在先学环节中,以学案为载体,以导学为方法,这样的导学把教学内容的思路与学生的学习思路很好地结合起来,有助于提高学生学习的信心,使他们在有限的课堂时间参与交流合作、共享成果,使学生从“学会”到“会学”逐步转变。
(2)在后教环节,与传统的“满堂灌”的教学模式不同,师生边教边学,真正体现了“先学后教”的新理念,以学生先学为基础进行有针对性的教学。
(3)在拓展环节,设计了与阅读文章相关的任务型阅读和写作的活动,真正达到了拓展的效果。
(三) “小组合作”阅读教学实践
教学任务:新编实用英语读写教程(第一册)Unit3 Text A,May I Feed。
教学目的:通过小组把故事情节以表演的方式来处理本文的阅读理解,培养学生分析、归纳并演绎信息的能力。
教学形式:6人小组教学流程:
Step1:Preview
(1)预习 Text A中的生词和短语,对文章主旨有一个大致的了解。
(2)把学生分为小组,每个小组6人,准备把 Text A的故事情节以表演方式在课堂上展现。
Step2:Pre-reading
(1)Discussion:If you have to choose one from three precious gifts:wealth,success and love,which one do you pick out? Why?
(2)Listen to the poem when you are old from William Butler Yeats and fill in the blanks.
Step3:While-reading
(1)教师抽出两组学生,让他们分别上讲台把文章的故事情节表演出来,然后让其他学生对表演进行评价,并将故事主人公心理变化过程总结出来。
故事主人公心理的变化如下:
I :happy-annoyed-reluctant-excited-glad
Kathy:worried-lonely-awkward-thankful
(2)以启发、提问的方式讲解下列语言点的用法。
我们以Noway为例进行说明。
Noway am I going to sit there.
该句是倒装句。一般情况下,以no、hardly、never、little等否定词开头的句子,其主语和谓语往往需要倒装。例如:
I have never met with such great kindness.
Never have I met with such great kindness.
分析:该阅读教学实践主要采用了启发式教学法。在阅读前,要求学生以小组为单位,并让他们以表演的方式把课文的故事情节展现出来;小组讨论锻炼了学生的阅读能力以及口语表达能力。在阅读中,教学根据语境来对词汇与语法进行详细讲解,并配以练习。在阅读后,设计了完形填空和写作等活动进行拓展。这样的教学模式不仅很好地发挥了教师的主导作用,同时也充分体现了学生的主体地位,激发了学生的学习兴趣,调动了学生的学习积极性。
