摘 要:一般过去时是英语学习的重要内容,但因为汉语中没有相对应的语法结构,导致学生时常感到困惑并屡屡犯错。本教学设计以大单元整体教学为出发点,融合串连一系列相关情景的“大任务”,从学生的角度开展“教-学-评”一体化的学习,有效帮助学生自主发掘语言规律与特点,在真实的情境中运用与掌握语言,内化知识,从而减少学习障碍,增强自信心。

小学英语教学中,教师应注重对学生英语能力和学习能力的培养,使学生能在具体语境中理解、运用一般过去时,能在小组活动中积极配合与合作,具备复习与归纳、联想与观察等综合能力。本文以教科版小学英语六年级上册Module4 “Past Experiences”一般过去时模块复习大单元为例,设计“参与志愿者活动”的系列情景,帮助学生自主内化一般过去时的用法,实现了以下目标:学生成为課堂的主角与中心,主动观察与猜测语料,领悟吸收知识;学生通过同桌操练、小组内采访与分享汇报,真正实现语言输入与输出的有效执行;学生通过阅读与思辨,以读促写,读写交融,结合渗透志愿者申请信的文体写作特征,提升综合能力;通过现代社交媒体的运用,拓宽学生的视野,陶冶学生的美德,增强其自我效能感。
