牛津小学英语5A教材分析

牛津小学英语5A教材分析 五年级英语教案 一、教材简介 牛津小学英语,根据“课程标准”中二级要求进行编写,以“话题---功能---结构---任务”相结合的原则,力求使话题、功能、结构和任务四个方面在比较真实的情景中紧密联系,融为一体;本教材提倡“任务型”的教学模式,让学生在教师的指导下,通过感知、体验、实践、参与和合作等方式,实现任务的目标,感受成功。在学习过程中进行情感和策略调整,以形成积极的学习态度,促进语言实际运用能力的提高。 本教材在4A的基础上,从七个板块增加到八个板块,即A、B、C、D、E、F、G和H板块。 A Read and say 情景对话板块。要在对话中呈现新的词汇和句型;着重训练学生的听说技能,以提高会话能力;从5A开始,情景对话前加了一段背景提示,一是使情景完整,二是逐步培养学生的阅读能力。 教法:教师要尽可能地运用图片、实物、投影、多媒体等直观手段,为学生提供真实生动的语言交际情境,并采用“先听说、后读写,先整体、后局部”的方法,引导学生开展形式多样的语言实践活动。教师要鼓励学生多背诵,在此基础上,再要求他们用已学语言重新组织一段对话进行表演。这样做有利于培养学生的创新精神和实践能力。 B Look, read and learn词汇教学板块。它是按主题归类和图词结合的方式呈现词汇,有的在3A,3B,4A和4B中出现过,有的则是新授。教师在教学中要

根据实际情况,区别对待,特别要加强对四会单词的操练。教学单词应与句子、语篇结合起来,努力做到“词不离句,句不离文”,要通过演示或讲解、操练和反复使用,使学生掌握学习词汇的方法,培养学生按拼读规则拼读单词的能力。 C Ask and answer/ D Look and say; Work in pairs 句型板块。它们是每个单元的重点,一般都要求“四会”掌握。句型必须放在情景之中教学。因为:一、激发学生的求知欲;二、帮助学生理解句型的确切意思,了解句型使用的场合;三、防止操练的枯燥乏味。句型操练时,教师还要注意训练的广度和密度,要让尽可能多的学生有训练的机会。 E Read and act / Look and read 阅读表演板块。其目的是培养学生初步的语感和朗读能力。要帮助学生预习,初步理解图意等,然后进行表演。 F Look, find and say / Do a survey 活动板块,这是具有游戏和“任务型”学习性质的活动板块。这个板块提供的饶有趣味的语言材料和生动活泼的活动形式,有助于学生在玩中学,在学中玩,对于激发学生的兴趣,提高学生运用语言的能力,发展学生的智力都有作用。教师要充分用好这一板块,并尽可能多地设计类似活动,让课堂教学充满童趣,充满生气。 G Listen and repeat 语音板块。本册提供了a, e, i, o 四个元音字母以及分别含有这四个字母的绕口令式的句子。教师要引导学生注意字母与其发音之间的联系。教师或采用“分散出现,集中归纳,经常接触”的方法,以加深学生对英语音素的印象;要让学生多听、多读、多比较,以培养他们的语感。 H Sing a song/ Say a rhyme 歌曲和歌谣板块。本册书编排了四首歌曲和四首歌谣,教师可根据实际情况,适当增加一些;充分利用课间、课外时间让学生

典故在英语广告中的应用

摘要:典故是语言和文化信息中的重要组成部分,是民族文化的积淀和民族智慧的结晶。典故寓意深刻、民族色彩浓厚,具有很强的修辞作用。典故的构成形式多样,来源极其广泛。不论是在文学作品还是在政论篇章、新闻报道和商业广告中,用典之处也比比皆是。英文广告中的典故来源很多,本文主要从源自希腊罗马神话和圣经故事的典故探讨了运用典故现象及其翻译,研究了怎样使英文广告译文符合译入语言能够被大众心理接受的方法,以实现文化传达的目的。 关键词:英文广告;典故;翻译;文化传达 广告既是经济交流的工具,也是文化传播的载体。而广告英语作为一种应用语言,因其所具的特殊效用,已逐渐从普通英语中独立出来而发展成为非常规范化的专用语言。现今英文广告翻译属于新兴的翻译领域,译者需具备语言学,经济学,营销学,社会学甚至美学等诸多学科的知识,更需注意译文中的典故因素。典故有着丰富的内涵,如果不了解其出处,读者势必会感到一头雾水。典故的来源很多,本文从源头为希腊罗马神话和圣经故事的典故进行探讨英文广告中的用典现象及其翻译,以期实现中西两种文化之间的沟通。 一、源自希腊罗马神话的典故 希腊罗马神话那种“神人同形同性”的特征,倾倒了无数的哲人和文学家,也因而获得了永久的艺术魅力。即使是现在,神话中所反映出来的文化精神,也深深地影响着西方人的文化生活;许多希腊神话故事经过千百年的流传,早已融入人们的日常生活和词汇中,成为人们普遍使用的具有特殊意义的语言。 在英语的广告中,就常可见到利用希腊、罗马神话典故中的人名或喻意,以满足英美人崇尚神话中英雄和神灵的文化心态的实例。例如:美国的耐克(Nike),就是借用希腊神话中胜利女神的名字Nike,达芙妮(Daphne)品牌的鞋借用希腊神话中风姿绰约、艳丽非凡的月桂女神的形象,中国的Anta(安踏)运动鞋源于希腊神话中的地神之子Antaeus,还有意大利马莎拉蒂(MASERATI)汽车的商标:一个椭圆中入一个三叉兵器,相传这个兵器是罗马神话中的海神纳丘(在希腊神话中则称波赛顿海神)手中的武器。它显示出海神巨大无比的威力,隐喻了马莎拉蒂汽车的快速奔驰的潜力。这对商品在美国市场上畅销十分有利。 这些商标的音译在进入我国市场时,保留了原来语言的风味,翻译内容新颖,充满异国情调,提高了读者接受文化差异的意识。不难看出,以上例子让我们领略了原来语言的风味,但如果不了解这些典故后面的文化背景,仍然不知其意。因此,在翻译时,在采取异化翻译方法的同时,如果加注与此相关的文化背景,则能让读者享受不同文化的同时,真正懂得其中的内涵。 二、源自《圣经》的典故 英语中出现的文化主要是基督教文化,《圣经》在整个西方文明的形成和发展中起了不可估量的作用。《圣经》中包含着丰富的文化典故、警世喻理,不了解《圣经》,就很难实现英文广告的商业价值。译者需先根据原广告的文化背景理解其所要传达的信息,再根据译入语的文化特征将之对译成能让译入语言消费者读懂、看懂的广告。只有这样才能实现文化的双向交流。例如:州农场保险公司所做的广告Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there (State Farm Insurance),便是借用《圣经·马太福音》第22章37—40节中“Love thy neighbor as thyself”(爱邻如己)的训导,于是可译为:州农场保险公司,亲如近邻。这样就把州农场保险公司可以随时为客户服务的宗旨表现得一览无遗,亲切之情,溢于言表。这种遵守目标语言文化当前的主流价值观,对原文采用保守的同化手段的归化翻译便于理解,但可能剥夺了读者欣赏异国文化的乐趣。所以,归化翻译虽适合目的语文化的理解习惯,但在传递、借鉴外来文化方面不得不说有些遗憾。

牛津高中英语模块7的教材的整合利用

2010年市英语教研室参评论文贰等奖 浅析牛津高中英语模块七教材的整合利用 陈二丰红星中学 2010-04

浅析牛津高中英语模块七教材的整合利用 陈二丰红星中学 摘要:笔者在牛津高中英语选修七的教学过程中,发现为复习迎接高中学业水平测试,模块七的日常教学任务变重,且时间也比较紧。因此注重教材使用过程中的整合就比较必要了。本文通过笔者在牛津模块七(下文简称模块七)教材中的教学实践,初步探讨如何对教材进行整合运用。 关键词:牛津英语模块七整合案例 教材整合,就是教师根据自己的教学实际情况,面对自己学生接受知识的实际能力,把英语每个单元的教学环节加以重新整合。教育部《英语课程标准》研制核心组专家刘兆义明确阐述新课程改革的核心理念是“一切为了学生的发展”,即“基于学生发展,关于学生发展,为了学生发展。”新颁布的英语课程标准也提出:“在英语教学中,除了合理有效的使用教科书外,还应该积极利用其他课程资源……”。在新课程理念下,课本不是教学的全部内容,教材是可变的、发展的和开放的。而现在使用的牛津教材提供了大量的适合学生兴趣和年龄的内容,在教材的整合中老师只要设置好与教材相关的内容,辅助学生更好的理解所学的知识,注重提出学生感兴趣的话题,让他们由被动的学习英语变成主动的积极的去感受英语。这样的整合就能比较好地培养了学生实际运用语言的能力。也能促进每个学生身心健康发展,实现主动参与,探究发展,交流合作的学习方式,

改变过去教学中教师过分依赖教材,过于强调接受学习,死记硬背,机械训练的现象。 笔者根据模块七教材中的教学实践,以以下案例探讨如何对教材进行整合利用。 一、教学内容的调整和组合。 根据学生的认知特点、心理特点和教学的实际情况,教师可对教材内容的顺序进行适当的调整,使其符合学生的兴趣和能力发展,以引导学生更有效地学习。 1. 单元之间的调整:单元之间的调整主要是根据学生的认知特点,对单元的安排进行重新调整,使之更有利于学生知识的掌握。 在模块七 unit1 Reading :TV and audio devices: a review中,reading strategy 的内容是understanding subtitles。旨在让学生通过对副标题的理解来快速把握文章主旨。本单元的文章结构根据副标题分别是:early history of TV; the modern age: cable TV, satellite TV , digital TV…;early history of audio devices; tape recorders and players; sound goes digital. 学生可以根据副标题轻松地划出文章结构,理解文章主旨。笔者在设计教学过程中,把模块七的P19,P34,P46, P62 页的文章提出来,让学生根据副标题猜测文章的主旨。这些页上的标题和副标题分别是: P19 Title:Two life-saving medicines; Subtitles: ASPIRIN , PENICILIN. P34 Title:The effects of the internet on our lives; Subtitles: The internet has positive effects on our lives The internet has negative effects on our lives P46 Title: research on the internet Subtitles: step one: choosing a topic (research engines, subject directories); step two: how to search(1,2,3); step three: using your information P 62 Title: traffic accident and road safety Subtitles: drivers not paying attention; drivers being impatient;

必看的国外15个经典典故

必看的国外15个经典典故 1、象牙塔:出自19世纪法国诗人、文艺批评家圣佩韦.查理.奥古斯丁的书函《致维尔曼》。奥古斯丁批评同时代的法国作家维尼作品中的悲观消极情绪,主张作家从庸俗的资产阶级现实中超脱出来,进入一种主观幻想的艺术天地——象牙之塔。象牙塔被用来比喻与世隔绝的梦幻境地。 2、诺亚方舟:出自《圣经》上帝对人类所犯下的罪孽非常忧伤,决定用洪水消灭人类。诺亚是个正直的人,上帝吩咐他造船避灾。经过40个昼夜的洪水,除诺亚一家和部分动物外,其他生物都被洪水吞没。诺亚方舟后被用来比喻灾难中的避难所或救星。 3、伊甸园:出自《圣经》上帝在东方的一片富饶的平原上开辟了一个园子,里面有果树和各种飞禽走兽。上帝让亚当看守园子。为排解他的寂寞,上帝从亚当的身上取出一根肋骨,造成一个女人——夏娃——来陪伴他。他们过着无忧无虑的日子。人们用伊甸园比喻人间的乐园。 4、多米诺骨牌:是一种西洋游戏,将许多长方形的骨牌竖立排列成行,轻轻推倒第1张牌时,其余骨牌将依次纷纷倒下。多米诺骨牌效应常指一系列的连锁反应,即牵一发而动全身。 5、缪斯:缪斯是希腊神话中9位文艺和科学女神的通称。她们均为主神和记忆女神之女。她们以音乐和诗歌之神阿波罗为首领,分别掌管着历史、悲剧、喜剧、抒情诗、舞蹈、史诗、爱情诗、颂歌和天文。古希腊的诗人、歌手都向缪斯呼告、祈求灵感。后来人们就常用缪斯来比喻文学、写作和灵感等。 6、潘多拉的盒子:潘多拉是希腊神话中第一个尘世女子。普罗米修斯盗天火给人间后,主神宙斯为惩罚人类,命令神用黏土塑成一个年轻美貌、虚伪狡诈的姑娘,取名潘多拉意为具有一切天赋的女人。并给了她一个礼盒,然后将她许配给普罗米修斯的弟弟埃庇米修斯。埃庇米修斯不顾禁忌地接过礼盒,潘多拉趁机打开它,于是各种恶习、灾难和疾病立即从里面飞出来。盒子里只剩下惟一美好的东西:希望。但希望还没来得及飞出来,潘多拉就将盒子永远地关上了。潘多拉的盒子被用来比喻造成灾害的根源。 7、犹大的亲吻:犹大是《圣经》中耶稣基督的亲信子弟12门徒之一。耶稣传布新道虽然受到了百姓的拥护,却引起犹太教长老司祭们的仇恨。他们用30个银币收买了犹大,要他帮助辨认出耶稣。他们到客马尼园抓耶稣时,犹大假装请安,拥抱和亲吻耶稣。耶稣随即被捕,后被钉死在十字架上。人们用犹大的亲吻比喻可耻的叛卖行为。 8、禁果:出自《圣经》亚当和夏娃住在伊甸园中,上帝允许他们食用园中的果实,惟独知善恶树上的果实不能吃。狡猾的蛇引诱他们吃了禁果,从此他们懂得了善恶,辨别出真假,而且产生了羞耻之心。上帝因此将他们逐出伊甸园。禁果比喻被禁止得到而又渴望得到的东西。

古希腊罗马神话中的英语典故

1.An Apple of Discord争斗之源;不和之因;祸根 An Apple of Discord直译为“纠纷的苹果”,出自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事 传说希腊阿耳戈英雄(Argonaut)珀琉斯(Peleus)和爱琴海海神涅柔斯的女儿西蒂斯(Thetis)在珀利翁 山举行婚礼,大摆宴席。他们邀请了奥林匹斯上(Olympus)的诸神参加喜筵,不知是有意还是无心,惟独没有邀请掌管争执的女神厄里斯(Eris)。这位女神恼羞成怒,决定在这次喜筵上制造不和。于是,她不请自来,并悄悄在筵席上放了一个金苹果,上面镌刻着“属于最美者”几个字。天后赫拉(Hera),智慧女神雅典娜(At hena)、爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂(Aphrodite),都自以为最美,应得金苹果,获得“最美者”称号。她们争执不下,闹到众神之父宙斯(Zeus)那里,但宙斯碍于难言之隐,不愿偏袒任何一方,就要她们去找特洛伊的王子帕里斯(Paris)评判。三位女神为了获得金苹果,都各自私许帕里斯以某种好处:赫拉许给他以广袤国土和掌握富饶财宝的权利,雅典娜许以文武全才和胜利的荣誉,阿芙罗狄蒂则许他成为世界上最美艳女子的丈夫。年青的帕里斯在富贵、荣誉和美女之间选择了后者,便把金苹果判给爱与美之神。为此,赫拉和雅典娜怀恨帕里斯,连带也憎恨整个特洛伊人。后来阿芙罗狄蒂为了履行诺言,帮助帕里斯拐走了斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯的王后---绝世美女海伦(Helen),从而引起了历时10年的特洛伊战争。不和女神厄里斯丢下的那个苹果,不仅成了天上3位女神之间不和的根源,而且也成为了人间2个民族之间战争的起因。因此,在英语中产生了an apple of discord这个成语,常用来比喻any subject of disagreement and contenti on;the root of the trouble;dispute等意义 这个成语最初为公元2世纪时的古罗马历史学家马克?朱里?尤斯丁(Marcus Juninus Justinus)所使用,后来广泛的流传到欧洲许多语言中去,成为了一个国际性成语。 eg: He throwing us an apple of discord,we soon quarrelled again. The dispute about inheriting estate formed an apple of discord between them. This problem seems to be an apple of discord between the Soviet union and the USA. 2.The Heel of Achilles 亦作The Achilles' Heel唯一弱点;薄弱环节;要害 The Heel of Achilles直译是“阿基里斯的脚踵”,是个在欧洲广泛流行的国际性成语。它源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。 阿基里斯是希腊联军里最英勇善战的骁将,也是荷马史诗Iliad里的主要人物之一。传说他是希腊密耳弥多涅斯人的国王珀琉斯和海神的女儿西蒂斯所生的儿子。阿基里斯瓜瓜坠地以后,母亲想使儿子健壮永生,把他放在火里锻炼,又捏着他的脚踵倒浸在冥河(Styx)圣水里浸泡。因此阿基里斯浑身象钢筋铁骨,刀枪不入,只有脚踵部位被母亲的手捏住,没有沾到冥河圣水,成为他的唯一要害。在特洛伊战争中,阿基里斯骁勇无敌,所向披靡,杀死了特洛伊主将,著名英雄赫克托耳(Hector),而特洛伊的任何武器都无法伤害他的身躯。后来,太阳神阿波罗(Apollo)把阿基里斯的弱点告诉了特洛伊王子帕里斯,阿基里斯终于被帕里斯诱到城门口,用暗箭射中他的脚踵,负伤而死。 因此,the heel of Achilles,也称the Achilles' heel,常用以表示a weak point in something that is otherwise without fault;the weakest spot等意思。 eg:The shortage of fortitude is his heel of Achilles. His Achilles' heel was his pride--he would get very angry if anyone criticized his work.3.Hel en of Troy 3.Helen of Troy 直译"特洛伊的海伦",源自源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。 Helen是希腊的绝世佳人,美艳无比,嫁给希腊南部邦城斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯(Menelaus)为妻。后来,特洛伊王子帕里斯奉命出事希腊,在斯巴达国王那里做客,他在爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂的帮助下,趁着墨涅俄斯外出之际,诱走海伦,还带走了很多财宝 此事激起了希腊各部族的公愤,墨涅俄斯发誓说,宁死也要夺回海轮,报仇雪恨。为此,在希腊各城邦英雄的赞助下,调集十万大军和1180条战船,组成了希腊联军,公推墨涅俄斯的哥哥阿枷门农(Aga memnon)为联军统帅,浩浩荡荡,跨海东征,攻打特洛伊城,企图用武力夺回海轮。双方大战10年,死伤无数,许多英雄战死在沙场。甚至连奥林匹斯山的众神也分成2个阵营,有些支持希腊人,有些帮助特

英语谚语典故

英语谚语典故: 1.An Apple of Discord争斗之源;不和之因;祸根 An Apple of Discord直译为“纠纷的苹果”,出自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事 传说希腊阿耳戈英雄(Argonaut)珀琉斯(Peleus)和爱琴海海神涅柔斯的女儿西蒂斯(Thetis)在珀利翁山举行婚礼,大摆宴席。 他们邀请了奥林匹斯上(Olympus)的诸神参加喜筵,不知是有意还是无心,惟独没有邀请掌管争执的女神厄里斯(Eris)。这位女神恼羞成怒,决定在这次喜筵上制造不和。于是,她不请自来,并悄悄在筵席上放了一个金苹果,上面镌刻着“属于最美者”几个字。天后赫拉(Hera),智慧女神雅典娜(Athena)、爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂(Aphrodite),都自以为最美,应得金苹果,获得“最美者”称号。她们争执不下,闹到众神之父宙斯(Zeus)那里,但宙斯碍于难言之隐,不愿偏袒任何一方,就要她们去找特洛伊的王子帕里斯(Paris)评判。三位女神为了获得金苹果,都各自私许帕里斯以某种好处:赫拉许给他以广袤国土和掌握富饶财宝的权利,雅典娜许以文武全才和胜利的荣誉,阿芙罗狄蒂则许他成为世界上最美艳女子的丈夫。年青的帕里斯在富贵、荣誉和美女之间选择了后者,便把金苹果判给爱与美之神。为此,赫拉和雅典娜怀恨帕里斯,连带也憎恨整个特洛伊人。后来阿芙罗狄蒂为了履行诺言,帮助帕里斯拐走了斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯的王后---绝世美女海伦(Helen),从而引起了历时10年的特洛伊战争。不和女神厄里斯丢下的那个苹果,不仅成了天上3位女神之间不和的根源,而且也成为了人间2个民族之间战争的起因。因此,在英语中产生了an apple of discord这个成语,常用来比喻any subject of disagreement and contention;the root of the trouble;dispute 等意义 这个成语最初为公元2世纪时的古罗马历史学家马克?朱里?尤斯丁(Marcus Juninus Justinus)所使用,后来广泛的流传到欧洲许多语言中去,成为了一个国际性成语。 eg: He throwing us an apple of discord,we soon quarrelled again. The dispute about inheriting estate formed an apple of discord between them. This problem seems to be an apple of discord between the Soviet union and the USA. 2.The Heel of Achilles 亦作The Achilles' Heel唯一弱点;薄弱环节;要害 The Heel of Achilles直译是“阿基里斯的脚踵”,是个在欧洲广泛流行的国际性成语。它源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。 阿基里斯是希腊联军里最英勇善战的骁将,也是荷马史诗Iliad里的主要人物之一。传说他是希腊密耳弥多涅斯人的国王珀琉斯和海神的女儿西蒂斯所生的儿子。阿基里斯瓜瓜坠地以后,母亲想使儿子健壮永生,把他放在火里锻炼,又捏着他的脚踵倒浸在冥河(Styx)圣水里浸泡。因此阿基里斯浑身象钢筋铁骨,刀枪不入,只有脚踵部位被母亲的手捏住,没有沾到冥河圣水,成为他的唯一要害。在特洛伊战争中,阿基里斯骁勇无敌,所向披靡,杀死了特洛伊主将,著名英雄赫克托耳(Hector),而特洛伊的任何武器都无法伤害他的身躯。后来,太阳神(Apollo)把阿基里斯的弱点告诉了特洛伊王子帕里斯,阿基里斯终于被帕里斯诱到城门口,用暗箭射中他的脚踵,负伤而死。 因此,the heel of Achilles,也称the Achilles' heel,常用以表示a weak point in something that is otherwise without fault;the weakest spot等意思。 eg:The shortage of fortitude is his heel of Achilles. His Achilles' heel was his pride--he would get very angry if anyone criticized his work.3.Helen of Troy 3.Helen of Troy 直译"特洛伊的海伦",源自源自荷马史诗Iliad中的希腊神话故事。 Helen是希腊的绝世佳人,美艳无比,嫁给希腊南部邦城斯巴达国王墨涅俄斯(Menelaus)为妻。后来,特洛伊王子帕里斯奉命出事希腊,在斯巴达国王那里做客,他在爱与美之神阿芙罗狄蒂的帮助下,趁着墨涅俄斯外出之际,诱走海伦,还带走了很多财宝

《牛津小学英语》“综合板块”教学

《xx小学英语》“综合板块”教学 感悟 xx娟 《牛津小学英语》高年级教材中每单元都包含A~H八个板块。其中,A板块为语篇教学,B~D板块为词句教学,E~H板块为综合板块。“综合板块”,顾名思义,是对语篇板块和词句板块的巩固、提升和强化,同时又是对本单元所有知识点综合运用的一个板块。作为综合板块的教学内容,无论是E部分的阅读、F部分的活动,还是G部分的语音和最后H部分的歌曲、歌谣,形式各异。 因此,如何将单一的板块内容整合教学值得教师关注。笔者结合在江阴举行的无锡市优质课评比活动来谈一些自己的感悟。 一、确立一条主线,将语言学习置于一个大情境中 如果教师单就综合板块各部分内容来教的话,教学难免缺乏系统性。 因此,教师要善于挖掘各板块之间的隐蔽联系,确立一条主线,将各部分的内容由一个大情境中引出,再进行教学。德国一位学者有过这样精辟的比喻:将15克盐放在你的面前,你无论如何也难以下咽。但将15克盐放入一碗美味可口的汤中,你早就在享用佳肴时将15克盐全部吸收了。情境之于知识,犹如汤之于盐。盐需溶入汤中,才能被吸收;知识需要融入情境之中,才能显示出活力和美感。 此次优质课评比活动的授课内容为《牛津小学英语》5B Unit 8 At theWeekends和Unit 9 The English Club两单元中E~H部分的内容。下面就这两个单元的教学来谈谈他们是如何处理的。 针对这两个单元的教学内容,各位教师均设计了一条明确的主线,引导学生准确理解教学内容,更好地把握教学重、难点。 例如,在Unit 8的教学中,王亚红老师设计的主线为“介绍自己的新朋友Lee”;张丽萍老师则将本课的教学内容设计成一场“Insects show”;王丹华老师

以语篇、语境带动语言学习——小学牛津英语4AM2U2《Jobs》教学案例

以语篇、语境带动语言学习 ——小学牛津英语4AM2U2教学案例 案例背景: 近年,上海的小学英语教学正实行着一次前所未有的改革,在小学英语领军人物、市教研员朱浦老师的带领下,小学英语教学从改变教学方式出发,着力于构建独立语段,从语段和语境的整体推动带动学生的语言学习,从而有效实现小学英语课堂的转型。 当前,我校英语教研组以“语篇教学中的单元设计”为主题项目实行课堂教学研究,分别就“语篇教学中的单元设计”之“目标再构、文本再构、过程再构”实行了一一研讨,本学期重在“过程再构”的研究。开学初,我有幸又拜读了朱浦老师的《关于小学英语独立语段教学的实践与思考》报告,对于独立语段中的“过程再构”加深了理解,从报告中谈到的三种“过程再构”模式中不难看出“语段和语境的整体推动是激发学生学习兴趣,调动学生语用情趣,提升学习有效性的教学策略和方式。” 案例描述: 4AM2U2教学主题Jobs,要求学生能够使用所学的的词汇来准确描述某人的职业,能使用What does…do?句型来询问职业,并用He’s/She’s…做出准确回答。在语言交流的过程中,促使学生了解各种职业,并树立自己今后的职业理想。 1.

(She’s a student.) 片段二:从文本中学习新授词汇,操练新授句型。 1. Listen to Jill and then answer questions. I have a big family. There are eight people in it. They are my grandparents, my parents, my uncle, my aunt, my cousin and I. My father is a firefighter. He works at a fire station. He’s brave. My mother works in a hospital. She’s a nurse. She’s nice.
