I’m sorry to interrupt you but how could they live here?

学情分析

我校高二学生的英语学习情况如下：

1. 基础知识较为薄弱

2. 虽然经过一年多的高中英语学习，运用英语进行交际活动的能力还是比较差。

3. 对于疏通语句，理清文章大意还存在一些困难，

4. 良好的阅读习惯和技巧还没充分掌握。

5. 部分学生还没学会合作学习。

6. 不会跳读抓大意。

7. 对于文章细节的理解力还不够。

8. 对于生词的猜测能力还有待提高。

9. 学英语的兴趣有所下降。

效果分析

在课堂上，我采用了分组教学。绝大多数学生，课堂环境几乎是外语学习的唯一场所。教师如何在有限的时间内有效地利用积极因素，避免或消除消极因素，采用更适合于学习者语言发展的课堂教学方法，是外语教学是否成功的关键之一。小组活动在英语课堂教学中始终起着积极作用。

1. 小组活动在课堂上起到操练语言、有目地实践语言项目的作用，从而达到当堂巩固的效果。

2.小组活动提供了大量的向其他同学学习的机会。

教师应当使学生明白，学习第二外语，不仅要从教师那里学，还可以从其他同学那里学。学生们明白了学习是互相的、平等的，就可以克服不愿与比自己水平差的同学操练的心理，从而充分调动学生学习的主动性和积极性。

3. 小组活动增加了课堂的密度和广度。 在课堂教学中，教师要通过灵活多变的教学形式对学生的学习动机、课堂学习环境和语言的输入产生积极的影响，使课堂教学摆脱应试教育的枷锁，课堂小组活动不失为一种较好的、简便易行的教学形式。课堂小组活动组织得好与坏，在某种程度上决定着一堂英语课的成败，它来自于师生的共同创造，在课堂上的作用是不容忽视的。

学生在活动时都被一种积极的情感所支配，将大大激发参与课堂教学的热情，调动积极性。学生们想在课堂上有好的表现，他们在课前、课后就有兴致去积极准备，互相对话，大大激发了学习英语的兴趣。
