VII. Teaching reflection
1. 本堂课是中考第一轮复习中的一节复习课,以2017年咸宁市中考英语说明为指南,并结合近几年中考真题或对相关真题进行改编(如将2016年成都市的完形填空改编成为12个空的短文填词,并对部分信息进行了修改),有效地引导学生复习了仁爱英语七年级Unit5-6的重点单词短语句型和语法,让学生对中考中出现的部分较难题型及相关的解题技巧有所掌握,为第二轮复习专题训练中的解题方法的指导起到了重要的作用。
2. 这堂英语课利用了多种教法和学法相结合的方式,如任务型教学法,情景教学法,直观教学法,小组合作模式等方式有效地提高了课堂效率,充分复习了这两个单元的重难点,特别是在练习过程中,以学生为主体,面向不同层次的学生,通过中考真题的训练,教师指导学生分析题目,修正错误,总结规律,这也是课程改革形势下的新要求,也是学习新课标的一种新体验;
3. 整堂课的复习以设置的五项基本任务为主线,覆盖中考的四种基本题型(听力短文理解,单项选择,短文填词等),分别从听说读写四个方面进行内容的复习以及方法的指导,有一定的条理性,层次性,体现了由浅入深、由易到难、循序渐进的原则,不仅提高了他们的学习兴趣,还使得学生听说读写的能力得到了一定的提升;
4. 本堂课开始通过问答,合唱英文歌曲Day of the week等形式进行热身与导入,既消除了学生的紧张情绪,减轻英语学习的枯燥感,调动了学生的积极性,而且复习了Units5-6中关于星期的重点词汇;
5. 本堂课也存在一定的不足,如:
1)在讲解Task4单项选择时,应尽量使用英语进行讲解,理解教师课堂用语其实对学生来说并没有什么难度;教师课堂尽可能多的说英语对学生语言感知能力的培养有着积极的作用,也是学生学好英语,综合运用语言的基础。
2)Task5的设计应多预留出一些时间,一是可以让学生以小组的形式讨论之后进行讲解;二是最后全班可以对语篇进行完整的学习,自己谈论感受,而不是教师一味的进行灌输,从而达到真正意义上的情感教育的目的;
3)对于复习的七年级Units5-6这两个单元,内容较其他年级更简单,为了更接近于中考的难度,可以考虑将看图写作的Task2改成一篇更适合我们咸宁市中考英语中的作文进行练,且为了达到检测效果,演排的人数需要适当增加,从而可以从多个角度去发现学生写作中存在的问题,进而解决问题,提高学生的写作水平;
即使是一堂复习课,我们也应该在新鲜的语境中再现、巩固、总结所学相关知识。复习课依然要以话题为基点,以语言知识(语音、词汇、语法、功能、话题)的夯实为根本,提高学生的语言运用能力。?在中考复习中,应注重听、说、读、写四种语言技能的有机整合,复习课要在实际应用的层面上引导学生体验运用语言解决实际问题的过程,这对于发展九年级学生的综合语言运用能力具有重要的价值。
