哈尔滨顺迈学校 曲鸿梅
教材分析:因学校是五四学制,学生六年级已经完成了小初衔接教学,七年级上学期学习任务相对轻松。为进一步扩大学生的阅读量,提高学生的阅读能力,结合本学期所学内容,有针对性地对学生进行课外阅读拓展训练。课外阅读是课内阅读教学的辅助与补充,可有效解决七年级学生阅读量不足的问题。在阅读教学过程中,教师要注重培养学生对语篇的领悟与分析能力,更要重视培养学生的语言运用能力和文化意识。
文本分析:为满足七年级学生的阅读需求,本节课选取了一篇介绍哈尔滨的说明文。说明文是以说明为主要表达方式的文体,要求抓住事物的特点,采用举例子、列数字等说明方法,客观地来说明事物或阐明事理,要求语言简明,说明方法严谨,文章结构清晰,条理性强,便于学生读后仿写。
1.知识目标:(1)了解说明文的文体特征;(2)学习举例子、列数字等说明方法。
2.能力目标:(1)引领学生“吃透”文本,把握说明文的文脉,培养学生运用所学知识表达观点、口述同类文章的能力,最终提升学生的读后仿写综合语言能力;(2)培养学生使用思维导图对文段进行解析的技能。
3.情感目标:培养学生热爱家乡,热爱祖国的情感。

Part 4:板书设计
(设计意图:本篇文章是关于介绍哈尔滨的说明文。首先围绕哈尔滨这一主题,在板书中设计标志性建筑和代表哈尔滨的图片,让学生更好地融入情景之中。以龙塔为背景,从最下面的文体开始分析,到结构,再到内容,最后品析语言,代表着对一篇说明文层层剖析的逻辑顺序。学生能在图片的辅助下更好地理解这篇文章的脉络并在写作中体现出清晰的逻辑性。)
本节课通过阅读来促进仿写,课程容量比较大。在完成全部环节的目标下,存在“匆忙”的现象。在复述课文和口头作文输出环节给学生消化的时间不足,练习不充分,可能会影响学生的最终仿写。同时,在这节课引领学生进行文本深度剖析的过程中,我深深体会到,英语的读写过程是不可分割的有机体,教师要注意二者的内在联系。在教学中,教师不仅要注重对知识的讲解,更要重视对阅读文本的解读。学生只有在明确文本的内容、结构、语言特点等前提下,有针对性地积累素材和方法,才会在写作时有话可说、有法可循、有据可依。总之,“以读促写”这种教学策略,不仅能够提升学生的阅读能力,也可以逐步提高学生的写作能力,培养其英语学科核心素养。
学生的智力发展离不开良好的阅读能力,阅读是培养学生爱好的重要手段。课外阅读既是思考的大船借以航行的帆,也是让思考鼓帆前进的风。我们能通过教师的有效指导帮助学生把握阅读的方法,也很有可能总结出一种“模式”。但是,“模式”是一把双刃剑,它也可能会制约一个人的思想。所以,我们教给学生的是方法而不是框架。好的方法是符合一个人的学习和认知规律的,科学的学习方法需要我们努力探索。前路漫漫,吾将上下而求索。
