1. THE FOX AND THE GRAPES

A Fox, just at the time of the vintage, stole into a vine-yard where the ripe sunny

Grapes were trellised up on high in most tempting show. He made many a spring and a

jump after the luscious prize, but, failing in all his attempts, he muttered as he retreated:

“Well! What does it matter! The Grapes are sour!”

石头汤反思（共5篇）

第一篇：石头汤反思

《石头汤》反思

各位评委老师大家好：今天我选择的大班绘本故事——《石头汤》，它节选自美国作家琼。穆特的绘本作品《石头汤》。作者运用清透的水彩画，优美恬静的画风，给大家展现了一种悠远的禅意和古老东方文化的神韵。

《石头汤》讲述的是三个和尚来到一个饱经苦难的村庄，村民们长年在艰难岁月中煎熬，心肠变得坚硬，不愿接纳任何人。可是，和尚们用煮石头汤的方法，让村民们不知不觉地付出了很多，更明白了分享和付出会给人带来幸福和快乐的道理。

这本绘本非常优美，画面美，文字美，深藏的寓意更美。它在一幅幅美丽的水彩画中，慢慢让你懂得：付出越多，回报越多。打开心扉，你会变得快乐。分享会让人富足等等哲理。这本绘本容量很大，不管是文字还是图画，里面深藏的哲理，就是我们大人也需要静下心来好好去思考，去参透，去领略。考虑到孩子们的年龄特点，和课堂的有限时间，所以，这次我主要选取绘本中的一部分，通过故事教学活动，让孩子明白分享和付出会给人带来幸福和快乐。同时也激发孩子们阅读的欲望，培养了孩子们的阅读兴趣。

根据《指南》中提到的幼儿语言学习与发展的目标要求，我为 这节活动设定了以下目标：

1、阅读绘本，理解绘本故事内容，懂得分享和付出会给人带来幸福和快乐。

2、能仔细观察绘本图文，学会大胆用语言表述自己的想法

围绕目标，我是这样设计活动的：首先，我运用送三份礼物，导入新课。送礼物的环节设计，能一下子抓住孩子们的兴趣，而变出一个可爱的娃娃更是抓住孩子们的好奇心注意力。在孩子们把自己收到的第一份礼物慷慨地送给我，帮助我一起变出可爱的娃娃的过程中，孩子们已经第一次体验到，付出和分享会给人带来幸福和快乐。为后面突破重难点做了第一次铺垫。

接着我很自然过渡到石头汤的故事，在观看绘本故事的时候，我重点选取了三张图片让孩子去观察讲述：这就是三幅村民们的神情变化。第一幅，是初步认识村民，观察村民的神情，感受村民们的冷漠和不幸福。在这里，我也注意一些词语的学习，如：冷漠、傲慢、恐惧等。第二幅是村民们好奇的走出家门，请孩子们猜测此刻村民们内心的想法。而和尚们也正是抓住村民们们这点仅存得好奇心才可以一步步让村民们开始学会付出，学会分享。第三幅是观察村民们变化后的快乐和幸福。让孩子们去讨论，为什么村民们会变得幸福和快乐？让幼儿更进一步理解分享和付出会给人带来幸福和快乐。在这里，我注意幼儿口语表达能力的培养，鼓励他们在注意倾听的同时，学会去思考，并大胆用语言去表述自己的想法。为了让孩子更切身体会绘本的精神。我设计了“大家一起来煮汤”的游戏。让孩子们以村民的角色身份进入游戏，并特别引导他们用绘本中对话语言来体验角色心情，感受到帮助别人，和大家一起分享，会让人体验到幸福和快乐。

石头汤的故事

伊索寓言中有这样一个故事：一个暴风雨的日子，有一个穷人到富人家讨饭。

“滚开！”仆人说，“不要来打搅我们。”

穷人说：“只要让我进去，在你们的火炉上烤干衣服就行了。”

仆人以为这不需要花费什么，就让他进去了。

进了房门，烤了一会火，这个可怜的人又便请求道：“借他一个锅，以便让他‘煮点石头汤喝’。

”石头汤？“仆人很惊讶。

”我倒要看看你怎么去做石头汤？“

仆人借给了他一个锅。

这时，可怜的人又说道：”即然煮汤就给我一点水吧！“仆人认为一点水不算什么，便给了他水。穷人又到外面拾了一石头，洗干净放入锅里煮。

”可是，你总得放点盐吧。“仆人就给了他点盐。

过了一会儿，石头水里一动不动，穷人就说：”哎呀，好香啊。真想马上尝一口。但要是有点葱花该多好。“葱花很平常，拿出来也不成问题，仆人又给了他点葱花。后来又给了豌豆，薄荷，香菜。最后，又把能收拾到的碎肉末都放在汤里。最后，穷人美美的喝了一碗肉汤。

启示：不论做什么事，方向一定要正确，但还须采取适当的策略，一步一步的引导别人，并持之以恒地坚持下去，才能获得成功。尤其是我们市场的同事，在工作中，总会遇到各种困难、阻碍，不要急，一步一个脚印，积累点点滴滴、循序渐进地一步步做起。
