一、教学内容
理解全文，了解汉字书写体系的发展。
第一课时以汉字的演变为核心，以“预测——提问——阅读——解惑——梳理——概括”为主要流程，整体感知文本内容，重点探究汉字文化体系的历史变迁(development)的主线。教学从学生展示自己搜集的异形同义的汉字和辨认不同时期的“马”字导入，激活背景知识和主题词汇，再结合标题和插图，对课文内容等进行预测。然后学生思考想要了解汉字书写体系的哪些方面，并通过阅读寻找答案，梳理、归纳、聚焦文本主要内容，形成并完善汉字书写体系的历史变迁的时间轴，推进信息的获取、梳理和归纳。最后以介绍汉字书写体系发展整合输出语言。
课时目标
1.
通过展示自己搜集的异形同义的汉字和辨认不同时期的汉字“马”，激活相关主题知识和词汇，并根据标题和图片预测文本内容，就汉字书写体系提出相关问题，激发阅读兴趣。
2.
运用寻读、梳理、归纳等策略，寻找“time
&
event”词块和信息，聚焦文本主要内容，关注汉字书写体系发展，积累相关主题语言，发展逻辑思维能力。
