Thoughts on the design:
1.話題:本閱讀課是圍繞整個單元的中心話題“Amazing people”而展開的。
2.內容:本節(jié)課主要是以聽、說為主的詞匯教學課。主要從兩個方面幫助學生擴大有關職業(yè)方面的詞匯量:
(1)通過構詞法中的派生法變成表示一些職業(yè)的詞匯,也就是說在一些動詞、名詞、形容詞等后加后綴,如-er、 -or、-ist等,幫助學生對所學過的單詞進行歸納,從中發(fā)現(xiàn)規(guī)律,同時,根據(jù)這些規(guī)則向他們介紹更多的符合這些規(guī)則的生詞;
(2)根據(jù)本單元的有關職業(yè)話題,引申出更多的有關生詞。
3.目標:通過學習構詞法中的派生法擴大學生的詞匯量及猜詞能力。
Teaching procedures:
Step1 Lead-in.
Brainstorming. Show some pictures of people who hold different jobs and ask the students the following questions:
1. Do you know their jobs?
(show some pictures of different people and ask them to tell the jobs they do. Waiter, worker, actor, …)
2. What other jobs do you know?
[Explanation]
通過看一些圖片,讓學生猜出圖片中人物的工作,不僅讓學生熱身,而且讓他們對本課時的內容有初步的了解,以便成功地導入主題。
Step 2? Vocabulary learning.
1. Please look at the rules for word formation listed in the book. Add suffix to verbs, nouns or adjectives to form nouns. (PPT13—14).
-er, -or, -ant, -ent, -ist are often added to verbs to form a noun about jobs.
-ist, -ian, -er are often added to nouns to form a noun about jobs.
-ist, -ian are often added to adjectives to form a noun about jobs.
We add -ess to refer to a woman.
waiter→ waitress? host → hostess? ( god? → goddess).
actor→ actressprince→ princess (steward → stewardess).
2. Group work:
Work in groups of 4 to think of more examples for each item in the form on P. 46.
+ er? ?write →writer? compose →composer.
think →thinker etc.
+ or? ?invent →inventor? ? edit →editor? ? sail →sailor etc.
+ ant? serve →servant? ? depend →dependant.
+ ent reside →resident.
+ ist? chemistry →chemist? ?science →scientist
physics →physicist.
+ ian? history →historian? ? technique →technician.
[Explanation]
通過介紹構詞法,讓學生既學習構詞法,又了解一些有關工作的名詞的由來。
Step 3? Consolidation.
Activity 1? Guessing game.
Guess some jobs according to the descriptions.
Activity 2? A test on their memory.
Activity 3? Group competition.
Get students discuss in groups to think about more words formed this way.
One student from each group try to write as many words as possible in 3 minutes on the blackboard.
[Explanation]
設計這些游戲主要是活躍學習單詞的課堂氣氛,讓學生對學習詞匯更有興趣,而且能讓學生鞏固所學詞匯。
Step 4? Homework
1. Remember the words learned.
2. Think of more words with suffixes.
Step 4? Teaching postscript
1) 比賽是學生比較喜歡的學習方式。以競賽的形式貫穿整個教學活動是該部分教學設計的亮點。在比賽過程中,學生反應積極,討論熱烈,思維活躍,競爭激烈,教學效果較好。
2) 教師應涉及合適的銜接語言,使各個教學環(huán)節(jié)過渡自然,讓學生不知不覺進入良好的學習狀態(tài)。
Teaching reflection.
1. 在教學實踐中,我逐步體會到,英語教學應處理好以下三種關系:
1)教師的“教”與學生的“學”之間的關系。教師應更多的關注教會學生學習方法,不只是灌輸語言知識。
2)“樂”與“學”之間的關系。設計活動是要充分考慮學生的情感態(tài)度,要設法讓學生在快樂中學習,但要適度。
3)過程與結果之間的關系。詞匯教學要求教師在教學中不僅要關注學習的結果,還要關注學習的過程。學生完成任務的過程就是學生發(fā)現(xiàn)問題,分析問題和解決問題的過程。
2.我對這堂活動課進行了充分的準備,也征求了組內同行的建議。我深深地感到:學生的創(chuàng)造力是無限的,他們完全有能力用英語來表達自己的思想見解。教師應千方百計為學生創(chuàng)造情境,使他們在英語課堂上努力做到善“思”、好“說”、愛“動”。
我認為要做好以上三點,關鍵在于:設計內容要能調動他們的積極性;讓他們在課余時間能夠做好一定的準備;使他們養(yǎng)成互助與合作的好習慣。同時教師應始終貫徹教學需要藝術,需要機智,需要創(chuàng)新,基于教材又不拘泥于教材的新課改教學理念。
