Teaching process
Step 1 Import the file
Use short video import, second understand encyclopedia, using a 49 second short video brief introduction of Belgian writer Maurice Maeterlinck Morris. Maeterlinck, as well as his works and awards, and the main content of Bluebird. The purpose of using video import is to target all students, attract their attention, and arouse students' interest in the work.
Step2 Introduce the author
Use a handsome photo of the author to introduce the author, Belgian writer Maurice Maeterlinck Morris. Maeterlinck won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1911. Maeterlinck wrote many plays, of which the Bluebird is the most popular and has been widely translated and adapted around the world. In this part, I used the form of key information blank. The key information of the author's nationality of Belgium, the awards he won, and the most famous works were left blank, which reduced the difficulty and was suitable for all the students in the class, especially the middle and lower class students, who could keep up with the pace of the class, develop interest in literature, and have the desire to learn.
Step3 pre-reading
Set questions for students to brainstorm. Do you know the symbolic meaning of the blue bird in Chinese and Western cultures The students expressed their opinions and finally led the students to understand that the blue bird symbolizes happiness in Western culture. Regarding the symbolic significance of the blue bird in Chinese culture, I quote Li Shangyin's poem in Untitled: There is no way to Pengshan, and the blue bird is eager to explore. Guide students to understand that blue birds are often referred to as messengers of letters by later generations. Stimulate students' interest in drama learning.
Step4 Learn Act IV
In groups of four students, fill in the blanks of the text in the fourth act. According to the blanks, learn about the protagonist, background and plot of the excerpt of the fourth act, and discuss and communicate with each other. Then ask some students to check the answers, and finally repeat the plot, and other students add. The design of this part not only pays attention to all students but also considers the cultivation of top students. The final retelling part can only be completed when the vocabulary and topic content of this unit are fully mastered.
Step5 Role-play
The performance of the fourth act is a small climax of my design for this class. The drama Blue Bird has been adapted for the stage by Shanghai students. I divided the class into groups of 7 or 8 students and asked them to discuss how to present the drama on the stage, and they could appropriately add or subtract the plot. Use this activity to enhance drama appreciation and enhance artistic expression, and create situations for students to learn language in language.
Step6 Learn ACT VI
Study the sixth act of the play and interpret it. Involves characters, setting, and plot. The aim is to familiarize students with the content of the Bluebird. The teaching activity mainly consists of text filling in the blanks. Then have the students read the text in different roles to get ready to put the sixth act of the play on the stage.
Step7 Role-play
Perform the sixth act of the drama, which is the second small climax I designed in this class. Each group performs and the teacher makes comments. The purpose is to help students learn to cooperate, learn to appreciate the adaptation of the drama, improve literary appreciation and practical language skills.
Step8 Think and share
In connection with the theme of this unit, the wisdom of life and the reality of students' life, ask the following questions:
1.Why can’t Tyltyl recognise any of the Happiness
2.What does the author want to express by making the Blue Bird fly away at the end of the play
3.Are there any Happiness in your home What are they
By raising the above three questions, students are guided to share and discuss, aiming to lead students to think deeply about the wisdom of life in the theme of this unit, and let students know how to cherish the happiness around them. Happiness is always around you!
Step9 Think of other literary works from which you have learned lessons in life
1. Oliver Twist Orphan, play about three minutes of the video, excerpts of the orphan orphan, and then let the students discuss Oliver's situation and the hero's attitude towards life, and finally get the wisdom of life: Struggling for the light in darkness. Struggling for the light in darkness.
2. The old Man and the Sea, the Old man and the Sea, ask students to learn about this work through the Internet and other channels before class, and ask students to briefly introduce the story outline in English. Finally, the wisdom of life: A man can be destroyed but not defeated. In this part, I captured the video at station B, and then used the knowledge learned from the information technology 2.0 training for teaching. I eliminated the original sound and changed the background music for students to dub, so as to stimulate their enthusiasm for learning.
3. In "Jane Eyre", I used software fun dubbing, asking students to dub according to the clips played, select the most classic dialogue between the hero and heroine for fun dubbing, and at the same time guide students to understand the philosophy of life :All true love is based on equality and respect. The foundation of love is equality and respect.
The expansion of the above three literary masterpieces mainly leads students to explore the true meaning of life, so as to face life with a healthy and positive attitude and establish a correct outlook on life and values.
