Period 1
1. Teaching materials and the principles pf teaching design:
Teaching materials(教学内容):
本节课是外研版(三年级起点)八年级上册Module 7 Unit 2 She was thinking about her cat.的第一课时。主要学习如何有效阅读理解和拓展Unit 2 Activity 2课文同时,懂得在情境中练习过去进行时。
The principles of teaching design(教学设计理念):
在党的核心价值观引导下的教育改革浪潮中,教育理念顺应时代的潮流不断革新和进步。如何有效培养学生的核心素养这个议题也应运而生。因此,如何让学生在教师指导下最大地发挥自身核心素养能力,而不是单纯的学习能力,成为了教育研究的又一首要任务。
本节课属于阅读教学课。我在设计本节课的过程中,发现按照传统的“任务型阅读教学”往往缺乏一定的趣味性和层次性,要求学生运用能力也不够综合。因此,我在本节课的教学中,首先通过架构一个故事情境,让学生可以在对《爱丽丝漫游记》了解不多的基础上仍可以进行分级探险,借助看和听录像过程中了解人物的特点,从开始到完成任务,自然形成了一个通关游戏,吸引兴趣,进行词、句、意、用等主动吸收。另外,在同时本节课的教学安排也以学生为主体,通过运用思维导图、词语导图等化繁为简,降低难度来进行阅读能力的提高,从听说读写演五方面进行个人、小组合作和比赛,还进行创设课文情境、运用图片和课件实现情景教学法,展现PPT和视频等多媒体辅助法,表演和复述课文结合的TPR教学法,加强学生的交流和合作,增强语言的实效性,最大限度开发学生能力潜能,让学生在乐中学,学中乐,在故事带来的快乐中获得情感的提升教育。

3. Teaching aims(教学目标):
A. Knowledge aims(知识目标): To get to know the key sentence structures and understand the passage; To be able to describe what people were doing at that time.
Target sentence(目标句):
(Subject + was/were + doing….)
Alice was sitting with her sister by the river and her sister was reading a book.
She was thinking about her cat./ She was falling down a very, very deep hole. ..
B. Emotion aims(情感目标): To let the students listen, read and act happily and actively; To enjoy the feelings of reading the fairy tales.
C. Ability aims(能力目标): To let the students listen, speak, read and act the text happily; To use or write them in a certain situation: describe the activities in the past.
4. A. Teaching difficult points(教学难点):
How to describe what people were doing with the target sentences.
B. Teaching important points(教学重点):
the usage of the target sentences
5. Teaching preparation(教学准备):
PPT, the sentences cards, the head wears, videos, some magnets and so on.
6. Teaching procedures(教学过程):
Step 1: Warm up(热身):Greeting
T: Boys and girls, do you like fairy tales Last unit, we had learnt something about Alice. Do you want to know more Yes, we will have a new lesson. (Let the students read the title).
You’ll be divided into the Boy’s Group and the Girl’s Group to have a competition. First of all, let’s watch the video and know more about the characters.
(设计意图:小组竞争激起了学生的兴趣。有关故事话题的引入,让学生主动参与到谈话中。有助于进一步延伸过去进行时的知识复、预习。)
Step 2: Review ,Preview and lead-in (预、复习与引入)
①Lead-in:
T: Why the rabbit was so afraid to be late Because someone will off its head. There are two bad guys: the Queen of Hearts and the Prince(Jack)(图).So they will punish the rabbit.
In order to make the world in peace and return home, Alice has to beat the Queen of Hearts. So she needs to finish the following tasks and gets five things. (a card, a drink& some cakes, a key and a sword)
② Preview and Review:Mr Hatter and Alice’s dialogue
Task 1: Vocabulary (Alice got the “Help Me” card.)
A. Preview the new words or phrases in a short passage.
Suddenly, a man landed on the dry field. He’s always forgettable(健忘的), and he thinks about things once or twice an hour. Now he’s asking Alice for help.
B. Review the past continuous tense: From the recall of the thing he was doing between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m.
(eating noodles/putting on clothes/looking for his hat)
From the deep, deep pocket, he found his pink, lovely watch. Then Alice got the “Help Me” card.
(设计意图:利用学生对故事的理解,以旧带新,把竞赛的形式转化成通关游戏,让学生更加有兴趣,更容易接受。加上对新单词采取话题引入模式,让学生在小片段的情节中学会猜测大意和学习新单词。另外,人物的对话衔接上一话题,运用动静态图带动学生的积极性加入到过去进行时的复习和预习当中,既活跃了课堂气氛,也充分调动了学生的学习主动性和专注力。)
Step 3: Presentation and drills(新课呈现和操练)
①Task 2:Fast-reading
(Alice got the special drink and cakes.)
Watch the flash and see what happened.
Put the titles in order.
A. Fall down the hole B. Sit by the river C. Go after a strange rabbit
②Task 3: Careful Reading (Alice got the key.)
Listen and read the story passage by passage, and finish the tasks.
A. Work in pairs and finish the mind map.
(Listen to the Paragraph 1)
B. Find out more verbs or verb phrases.
(Listen to the Paragraph 2)
C. Listen and choose the right sentences.
(Listen to the Paragraph 3)
③Task 4: Read, Retell and Act
( Alice got the sword and went home.)
Work in groups to read the text in five minutes, then one student retell and other three act out in front of the class. Let’s see which group is better.
You can:
1).Show your facial expressions or gestures.
2). To add some plots.
(设计意图:随着层层递进的任务完成,直接引出学生将要学习的内容。首先在听音中整体感知课文内容,迅速查找关键词句,了解课文结构;再进行分段听音代替默读,使得学生能够跟着教师的指引进行对课文的理解:第一段通过对课文Where/Who/What的简单思维导图的引导,回顾过去进行时同时,也使学生快速理解文章;第二段根据课文时态,采用动词式的词语的查找,完成对人物活动的导向指引;最后通过有选项的多选题目,让学生通过排查课文意思获得对的句子,加深对课文的理解。这几个活动在大大降低了阅读理解难度的同时,化繁为简,转难为易,并通过两人、四人等小组讨论得出答案,是对综合能力的一种很大信息量的锻炼。另外,在复述环节,则通过小组大声朗读后,四人一组,一人借助提示词复述,另外三人分角色扮演练习到上台表演,学生的听说读演的能力无形中就被激发出来。小组成员可以在分角色做动作、添加情节的表演中收获了学习的乐趣,也锻炼了胆量和能力,敢于去演,勇于去表达。)
Step 4: Summary
Writing: Please use one sentence to describe every picture.
(Subject + was/were + doing… .)
(设计意图:使用有关课文叙事顺序的图片,不仅可以可及时回顾课文,加深理解,而且也通过写和讨论完成对过去进行时的继续操练,让学生能在头脑形成知识框架图,更好明白所学。一举两得。)
Step 5: Emotional Education:
A fairy tale is a good friend for me.
(设计意图:教师通过表达对阅读童话故事获得的体会感想来让学生注意到童话故事的乐趣,鼓励学生通过阅读,得到一定的快乐和精神食粮的满足。)
7. Blackboard Layout
8. Homework(作业)
To write down your own retelling of the story.
9. Reflection (教学反思)
本节课为阅读教学课,主要学习如何去阅读欣赏故事和描述人们过去进行的动作,如何使用过去进行时描述过去的动作。本节课经过实际的教学,课堂气氛和学生积极性还是很高,学习效果的反馈也很不错。在这节课,我运用学生喜欢的闯关游戏,把故事情节和阅读材料相结合,通过层层完成任务来获得打败红心皇后的武器。学生对于闯关游戏表现出极大的兴趣,我再通过故事情节引入新单词,用动态图片来复习过去进行时,把难度降低,学生有兴趣,自然会主动参与演出。因此引入和预、复习环节过渡得很好。然后,通过快速阅读,找出整篇文章的大意理解,并通过再次听音进行简单的思维导图,词语概图等任务来达到学生对于课文进一步认识,理清主要内容和必要点,为下面复述做铺垫。最后,以小组四人为单位,一人复述、三人表演,学生在结合自身理解基础上加情节或者表情,对课文的进一步深层了解,让学生听说读演等方面得到综合发展。末尾对课文的总结也是为了巩固语法和扩展知识面。
另外,在多媒体教学、信息技术教学等多元教学手段和方法的帮助下,学生能积极学、乐中学,学中悟,学中练,大部分学生都将故事复述出来,并且内化为自己的知识,学生的表演获得阵阵掌声,不仅锻炼了学生听说读演的能力,对核心素养的综合能力形成也是有好处的,不仅锻炼了学生的胆量和反应能力,也提高了学生的创新和交流能力。
而需要改进部分是最后知识扩展和总结故事时候,可以选择更加贴近生活的素材来扩展,如校运会、校园生活等,同时个人自我发挥不够顺利和完美,这些都是我要注意的。学海无涯,勤为上策。因此,如何最大化发挥学生的核心素养和综合能力,是我继续要研究的话题,仍需我努力学习。
