外語(yǔ)教學(xué)要著眼于培養(yǎng)學(xué)生語(yǔ)言綜合運(yùn)用能力,要有一定的特色和風(fēng)格,教師通過特色教學(xué)和教學(xué)藝術(shù)來激發(fā)學(xué)生良好的學(xué)習(xí)興趣,使他們熱情、親切地投入到語(yǔ)言學(xué)習(xí)的實(shí)踐活動(dòng)中去,親身體驗(yàn)語(yǔ)言的美。
一、創(chuàng)新情境,激發(fā)思維,促進(jìn)學(xué)生心智發(fā)展
課例:九年級(jí)(上冊(cè))Unit2 I used to be afraid of the dark
1a. Fill in the chart below with words to describe people
Appearance(外表) Personality(性格)
線索: tall,outgoing,straight hair,funny
創(chuàng)設(shè)情景1: What were you like five years ago?What did you wear? Where did you go to school? Who taught you?How about her /him?
記憶的閘門一打開,孩子們的情感立刻奔放出來。
S1: Five years ago I was short and thin.
S2: Five years ago I liked to wear red skirt .
S3: Five years ago I went to primary school.
S4: Five years ago Mrs Wang taught me,and she weared a pair of glasses. 說到此,老師用學(xué)生說的 “l(fā)ike to do sth”引出新知識(shí)“used to do sth”。
創(chuàng)設(shè)情景2:used to do sth(過去常常)
T:I used to get up at five in the morning.(教師給出一個(gè)范例)
S1:I used to get up late , So I went school late . The teacher wasn't very happy. (大家哄堂大笑)
T: But now,You get up early. You don not go to school late. You are good student.(大家鼓掌)
S2: My mother used to have curly hair. But now she has straight hair. Very verybeautiful.
……
在這一環(huán)節(jié)輸出了大量的語(yǔ)言材料,學(xué)生們各抒己見,眼里閃爍著智慧的火花,回憶起了5年前他們什么樣子,在哪上學(xué),誰教他們,教者什么樣,和現(xiàn)在形成了鮮明的對(duì)比。而且這種思維人人都有,由點(diǎn)到面,得到了啟發(fā),學(xué)生的心智得到了發(fā)展。在新知識(shí)點(diǎn)“used to be”的引領(lǐng)下,孩子們分層次地練習(xí)了這一結(jié)構(gòu),教師也順勢(shì)進(jìn)行了知識(shí)的升華:“I used to get up early in the morning. But now I am used to getting up early, and you ?”學(xué)生們的興趣又一次被激發(fā)出來。
S1:I used to eat junk food. But now I am used to eating healthy food.
S2:I used to be angry. But now I am used to being friendly.
T: And you like to help others.
這一環(huán)節(jié)是一種有廣度也有深度的教學(xué),從不同角度促進(jìn)了學(xué)生的心智發(fā)展,同時(shí)也使知識(shí)和技能得到了很好的結(jié)合。
二、就地取材,挖掘內(nèi)涵,提高學(xué)生人文素養(yǎng)
課例:九年級(jí)(上冊(cè)) Unit 2.
2c: play work
I used to be really quiet.I know now, you are outgoing.
在這一環(huán)節(jié)上,我把我們班上最近同學(xué)的表現(xiàn),由點(diǎn)到面結(jié)合同學(xué)進(jìn)行點(diǎn)評(píng)。
T: Zhang Hui used to be late. But now he is getting up early.
T: Wang Lei used to have fight. But now he is more friendly than before.
T: Linda used to be angry and quiet and liked to cry. But now she is getting to being friendly.
通過這些語(yǔ)言材料的輸出,就地取材,深挖了內(nèi)涵,對(duì)他們現(xiàn)在的表現(xiàn)給予了表?yè)P(yáng),指出他們過去的不足,與學(xué)生的情感進(jìn)一點(diǎn)拉近了。
課例:九年級(jí)上 Unit 2.
2b:listen again and fill in the blanks with the words you hear.
聽力材料(略)
我對(duì)我班李言同學(xué)進(jìn)行兩次語(yǔ)言材料的輸出。
T:Hello Li Yan.
Li: Hello teacher.
T: You used to play piano, didn't you?
S: Yeah. I do not play the piano now.
T: Why?
S: I am more interested in swimming.
T: haha. people can change.
通過這一操練,把學(xué)生過去、現(xiàn)在和將來都呈現(xiàn)出來,挖掘了內(nèi)涵,提高了學(xué)生人文素養(yǎng),達(dá)到了語(yǔ)言目標(biāo)和非語(yǔ)言目標(biāo)相結(jié)合、情感態(tài)度和語(yǔ)言知識(shí)相結(jié)合的目標(biāo)。
三、評(píng)價(jià)到位,靈活機(jī)智,展示教師的人格魅力
老師對(duì)學(xué)生的語(yǔ)言輸出,總能給予適時(shí)的反饋,做出靈活睿智的評(píng)價(jià),既活躍了課堂氣氛,又體現(xiàn)了教師敏捷的思維品質(zhì),同時(shí)也給學(xué)生以深刻的啟迪。
學(xué)生在討論第一個(gè)問題“What were you like five years ago?”時(shí):
S1: Five years ago, I was short and thin.
T: But now, you are tall and beautiful. I like you very much.(拉近師生之間情感)
S2: Five years ago, I liked to have fight.
T: You used to be fight. But now you are a friendly boy and always help others.
S2: Yes. (學(xué)生肯定)
T: You are a good boy now.(情感上再一次產(chǎn)生共鳴)
T: I think if you work hard all the time, you will be the best student in future. (學(xué)生鼓掌)
在討論第三個(gè)問題時(shí)“Who taught you five years ago?”時(shí):
S: Five years ago Mrs Wang taught me. She weared a pair of glasses.
T:(接著問)But now where is she? She has been away forever. 說到此,學(xué)生眼里充滿著淚光,老師馬上做出了語(yǔ)句:Although Mrs Wang was no longer with us, she was watching me, and would always take pride in everything good I do. 這段語(yǔ)句是本單元Reading部分的,我適時(shí)地提前說給學(xué)生。我覺得一堂好的英語(yǔ)課,老師的評(píng)價(jià)不用什么框架,見景生情,用心去體會(huì)孩子們輸出的大量語(yǔ)言材料,誠(chéng)懇真切地把語(yǔ)言知識(shí)與知識(shí)目標(biāo)進(jìn)一步升華,才能體現(xiàn)出老師的人格魅力。
總之,作為一名合格的英語(yǔ)教師,需要掌握一定的教學(xué)技巧和方法。教無定法,但教要得法。(責(zé)任編輯:符 潔)
