本课出自人教版小学英语(三年级起)五年级下册第六单元,主要内容是Sarah和Robin参加世界机器人博览会并与来自不同国家的机器人展开对话。本课分为读和写两个部分:第一部分要求学生阅读对话,复习、巩固本单元重点词汇和句型;第二部分要求学生根据文中的信息完成句子填空练习。教学中,执教者采用“三步七环节”英语阅读课教学模式,巧妙利用多媒体信息技术辅助教学,提高了教学效率。
Step 1:leading In
一、课前复习:借用技术,激发兴趣
1. Greeting
T:Hello,boys and girls!
Ss:Hello,Miss Zheng!
T:Today Ill take some new friends here. They are our friends. They can do many things. They look like the men but they neednt eat or drink. Can you guess?Who are they?Please press your panel computer as quickly as you can.
Ss:They are robots.
T:Yes!Theyre robots.
2. Sing a song
T:Do you like robots?
Ss:Yes!
T:Now,lets chant together!
【評析】恰当的教学导入能够激发学生的学习兴趣。执教者通过“猜一猜”“一起唱歌”等方式,与学生互动,拉近了师生之间的距离,活跃了课堂氛围。机器人是学生非常感兴趣的话题,为了抓住学生的兴趣点,执教者利用与学习主题相关的歌曲、动画,为学生创设了一个美好的视听体验情境。
二、新课导入:巧用技术,引出话题
Revise the sentences “He is... She is ... They are...”
T:Look!What is he doing?
Ss:He is reading.(师板书词条:He is v.+ing)
T:What is she doing?
Ss:She is singing.(师板书词条:She is v.+ing)
T:What are they doing?
Ss:Theyre playing football.(师板书词条:They are v.+ing)
1.Share the ideas about robots
T:Robots can do many things. What do you think of them?
S1:They are cool.
S2:They are clever.
2.Learning the first picture
T:Do you want to see more robots?Our friends Sarah and Robin want to see the robots,too. Look!They are in the world robot exhibition. Please guess what are Sarah and Robin doing in the exhibition?
S1:They are talking.
S2:They are speaking Chinese.
T:Sarah and Robin are seeing the world robot exhibition.(板书词条:the world robot exhibition)
【评析】执教者引领学生开展“头脑风暴”、自由交谈等活动,激活学生已有的知识经验,将学生的注意力引向语篇主旨,为学生理解和获取文本信息做好铺垫,同时请学生预测故事发生的地点和进展,引出本课话题,激发学生的阅读期待。
Step 2: presentation
三、新知呈现:运用技术,获取文本大意
Task 1:read the text fast and answer the questions.
Tip 1:skimming Use the pictures and get the main idea.
T:Now,lets go to the exhibition with Sarah and Robin. Here are five tasks for you. Task 1,read the text fast and answer the questions. Use your panel computer to choose the answer.
T:How many robots do they see?
Ss:They see six robots.
T:Thats right. Where are the robots from?
Ss:Theyre from Canada,Japan,Spain,China and the USA.
【评析】《义务教育英语课程标准(2011年版)》二级目标关于“读”的要求是,能够借助图片读懂简单的故事或小短文。授课中,执教者让学生略读文本,观察图片,感知故事大意,渗透了英语阅读策略,而有目的的略读能够让学生在短时间内把握文章主题,了解课文内容。执教者通过“电子书包”下发选择题,让学生利用关键信息作出选择,培养了学生的读图能力和捕捉细节信息的能力。
四、新知再现:利用技术,寻找细节
Task 2:read the text again and answer the questions.
Tip 2:scanning,find the key words to understand the text.
T:What are the robots doing?Read the text again and answer the question.
S1:The robot is from Canada. He is drawing a picture.(师板书drawing a picture)
S2:The robots are from Japan. They are cooking rice and making sushi.(师板书cooking rice and making sushi)
S3:The robot is from Spain. He is playing music.(师板书playing music)
S4:The robot is from China. She is doing kung fu.(師板书doing kung fu)
【评析】执教者引导学生用扫读的方式提取关键词回答问题,培养了学生捕捉细节信息的能力和探究意识,同时借助Focusky软件营造了不同国家机器人场馆,有利于学生在情境中理解文本内涵。
五、巩固练习:善用技术,深层理解
Task 3:read the text carefully and fill in the blanks.
Tip 3:read through the text and think to understand more.
T:Read the text carefully and fill in the blanks.
[Sarah and Robin are the world robot exhibition.
The Canadian robot is a picture.
Asako is sushi.
The Spanish robot is music.
Robin is kung fu. ]
【评析】执教者引导学生通读全文,借助“电子书包”完成填空练习,然后对学生的答题情况进行检查、讲评,加深了学生对文本内容的理解,为学生复述故事提供了丰富的语言素材。
Step 3: practice Activities
六、延伸拓展:妙用技术,提升能力
Task 4:retell the text.
Tip 4:use the thinking map to retell the text.
T:Please use the thinking map and retell it in your group.
Task 5:think more about the text.
1.Guess:what can the American robot do?
S1:Maybe he can sing and dance.
S2:Maybe he can do kung fu,too.
2.Pair Work:which robot do you like best?Can you act it out?
S1:I like Japanese robots. Look!Im making sushi.Im helpful.
S2:I like Spanish robot. Look!Im playing music,Im very cool.
【评析】将对话形式的文本进行重构,能够激发学生的语言潜能,提升学生的语用能力。执教者指导学生利用“思维导图”梳理文本内容,复述课文,提高了学生的语言表达能力。开放性问题能够为学生提供展示的平台,拓宽学生的思路,激发学生运用目标语言进行表达的欲望,使学生大胆发表见解。
七、总结评价:会用技术,拓展阅读
1.Watch a video
T:Different countries robots can do different things.Why?Lets enjoy a video.
2.Group work
T:Look!There will be a robot exhibition in China.Four students finish the paper together. Read the dialogue,make a thinking map and retell the text.
【评析】英语教学要让学生理解外国文化,拓宽文化视野,形成跨文化意识。执教者将跨文化意识渗透到教学中,有利于学生在阅读语篇时体会外国文化的魅力。执教者依托世界机器人展览这一情境,为学生提供相类似的文本进行拓展阅读,及时检验了学生对阅读方法的掌握和运用情况。
3.Summary
T:Today weve learnt something about robots. We should study hard and develop more robots for our country!Because robots can help us a lot. They are our good friends.
【评析】执教者在小结本课教学的同时进行情感教育,让学生认识到机器人能够帮助我们做很多事情,它们是人类的小助手和朋友。
4.Homework
T:Today we also visited the world robot exhibition.Can you help Robin?The homework is“help Robin write a passage about the text”.
【评析】做作业是学生巩固所学知识的手段之一,能够实现以读促写的目标,培养学生的语用能力。
【总评】
1.视频激趣,文化渗透。在英语教学中,随着阅读难度的增加,学生会慢慢失去最初的阅读兴趣和学习积极性。运用多媒体信息技术营造轻松愉快的课堂氛围和较为真实的语言情境,能够激发学生的学习兴趣。比如,执教者制作了与学习主题相关的机器人视频,融合了与课文内容相关的知识导入教学,既复习了旧知“现在进行时态”,又引出了本课的学习主题“Robot(机器人)”。另外,执教者还制作了5个外国文化视频,向学生渗透学习外国文化的意识。
2.平板助力,互动课堂。借助网络信息技术开展教学,有助于实现移动设备教师端和学生端的有效互动,及时反馈学生的学习效果。授课中,执教者使用平板学习机,利用其具有快捷下发、及时反馈、智能批改等功能开展教学,实现了课堂教学的智能化,增加了教学的趣味性。
3.巧用Focusky软件创设情境。利用Focusky软件营造世界机器人展览馆的情境,为学生提供了良好的语言学习情境。在Focusky软件中插入机器人视频和外国文化视频,使课堂教学变得直观、高效。
阅读课是小学英语教学的重要课型之一。教学中教师要善于借助多媒体信息技术激发学生的阅读兴趣,渗透阅读策略和文化意识,提升学生的思维品质和语用能力,实现阅读教学的目标。
