核心素养与思政渗透 本课时的话题围绕巨石阵展开,阅读材料是关于巨石阵的说明文。在种种对巨石阵的猜测的语境下,激发其对英语学习的兴趣,引导学生继续学习情态动词must, could, might, can’t表推测的用法,并重点关注一些含有连接词的复杂句子,引导学生在上下文语境中体会语言表达的确切含义。语篇涉及英国文化,能够拓展学生知识面,让其放眼看世界。同时,可据此尝试让学生学习介绍长城等国内神秘之地,培养学生的求知欲和探索欲,并体会其中蕴含的人文精神、科学精神和劳动价值。
课标分析 新课标要求九年级学生能在读的过程中,围绕语篇内容记录重点信息,整体理解和简要概括主要内容;能根据读到的关键词对人物、地点、事件等进行推断;能用简单的连接词建立语义联系;能理解和感悟中外优秀文化的内涵;领会所学简单语篇蕴含的人文精神、科学精神和劳动价值;具有国家认同感和文化自信,有正确的价值观和积极向上的情感态度;能辨识语篇中的衔接手段,判断句子之间、段落之间的逻辑关系;能多角度、辩证地看待食物和分析问题;能在学习过程中积极思考、主动探究,发现并尝试使用多种策略解决语言学习中的问题,积极进行拓展性运用。
教学目标 语言能力 能够在了解巨石阵的主题语境中,正确理解和掌握课文中的新词汇,增加词汇量;正确使用情态动词must, could, might, can’t表示对事物的推测;能通过相关的连接词理解句子间的逻辑关系,提高阅读理解水平;
文化意识 能够了解巨石阵和英国文化的相关知识,拓展知识面,放眼看世界;能够增强对神秘和未知事物的求知欲和探索欲,并感受古人的勤劳与智慧。
思维品质 能够在老师的帮助下,通过思维导图、归纳总结、复述等形式的阅读活动,增进对语篇的理解和分析能力,提高思维的逻辑性、批判性和创新性;
学习能力 能够通过阅读有关巨石阵的文章,保持英语学习兴趣;通过识别连接词等阅读策略的感悟、体验和学习,增强阅读理解能力。
教材内容分析 本课是一节阅读课,阅读材料是关于巨石阵的说明文。活动2a要求学生体验连接词的运用,为2b的阅读活动扫除障碍;2b要求学生阅读短文,了解连接词的运用,更好理解文章中句子间的逻辑关系;2c要求学生通过文本的细节理解,尝试自己解读文本,找出巨石阵的神秘之处,以及文中对巨石阵用处的各种推测。2d要求学生在理解2a连接词的基础上,运用这些连接词将相关句子补充完整;2e是一个开放性的活动,学生需要发挥联想,思考并讨论在中国或世界上还有哪些类似巨石阵这样神秘的地方,它们为什么神秘以及对于这些地方了解多少等问题。
重点 理解并运用所学词汇和用情态动词进行推测的句型简单介绍巨石阵的未解之谜和曾经的用途;
难点 在简述课文和迁移运用中用上恰当的连接词,使内容更加连贯清晰有逻辑。
学情分析 在前面的学习中,学生已基本掌握四个情态动词表推测的用法,也进行过根据已知事实进行合理推测的训练,这对本语篇的学习奠定了坚实的基础。九年级的学生虽然在英语语言方面已经有了一定的基础,但对于英国文化却知之甚少,很多学生对巨石阵闻所未闻,故需要教师进行文化背景知识的适当补充。巨石阵对于学生来说既遥远又神秘,能勾起学生强烈的好奇心和探索欲,这也是有效学习本课的优势之一。
