本文結合《牛津小學英語4A》(譯林版)Unit 8 In class一課的F板塊Listen and repeat和G板塊Say a rhyme教學片斷,談談我校教師的語音教學實踐。
一、語音教學語境化
【片段一】G部分歌謠導入教學
1.由單元主題結合師生真實經歷,自由問答,引出歌謠
T:Let’s talk about Mike.Look at the screen.It’s time for class.What may his teacher say?
S1:You are late.
T:If you are late,what would you say to your teacher?
S2:Excuse me,Ms Zhu. May I come in?
T:Then what may Ms Zhu say?
S3:Come in and sit down.
T:That true.
T:Look,I can make a chant about this. Can you read it?(PPT).
Ss read in chorus.
2.學編韻律小詩
T:Well done!Read and pay attention to the last word in each line again.
T:Can you find the rhyme foot(韻腳)?
S1:Yes.They are four,door,eight,late,ten,again.
T:Can you make a new chant?Let me help you.
S2:OK.
T:Choose a topic.以本單元B部分詞匯為例:eat,drink,draw,read
T:Make sentences with some more words(再用含有韻腳的詞造句).For example:Eat,eat,eat the meat
S2:Drink,drink,drink the milk.
S3:Draw,draw,draw the door.
S4:Read,read,read the word.
T:Now you have a new chant.Let’s read our new chant together.
【分析】這樣的教學過程讓學生觀察發現了rhyme的特點,同時對編chant的方法做了指導,從韻腳的特征到主題的確定,再用含有韻腳的詞造句。此做法幫助學生將已學詞匯知識進行了有效地串聯復習,而且還自然地過渡到語音的學習。根據課堂教學的實際情況來看,這種方法取得了較好的效果。
二、音標教學適度化
【片段二】由歌謠教學內容過渡到語音規則的發現與運用實踐
T:Now look at the rhyme again. Pay attention to these two words.(six,seven) These two words have the same sound. Who can tell me?
S1:/s/.
T:Yes.The letter“s” here makes the sound/s/.Read after me./s/ six seven.Try to say some more words.
S2:A sofa.
S3:A skirt.
T:Look,what’s on the sofa?(How many rabbits?)What are they doing?
學生看圖回答。教師同法教字母Rr在單詞中的讀音/r/。
T:Now look at the picture.Can you read a sentence with the words?
S:Seven rabbits are running on the sofa.
【分析】教師由rhyme和圖片巧妙地引出4個單詞:sofa,seven,rabbit,run,并引導學生比較紅色字母的發音,總結發音規律,并舉例加以拓展。教師適時呈現音標,在教學中注重音形結合呈現教學內容,重視引導學生認識共同音素后反復誦讀。通過教師的問題,學生的注意力由單詞到短語再到整句,變機械重復為意義操練。
三、語音練習情境化
【片段三】教師提供語境,將語音教學向教材外適度拓展,鼓勵學生自我創新
T:Good job!Let’s do some exercises.
T:What can you see?
S1:I can see a rubber.
S2:It’s small.
S3:It’s red.
T:Who can make a sentence with these words?
S4:I can see a small red rubber.
T:This is my sister.Where’s she?What’s she doing?
S5:She is reading.
S6:She is in her room.
S7:Perhaps it’s a storybook.
T:Try to complete the sentence:Myisain the .
S8:My sister is reading a storybook in the room.
T:Great!Here are some more words,try to make up sentences with them.
【分析】教師引導學生了解了基本的語音規律后,設計了看圖說句的內容,既鞏固了舊知,又適當拓展,不僅查漏補缺,更鼓勵學生學以致用。
根據以上的教學實踐,我們發現生動活潑的引導形式,不僅給小學生們營造了輕松愉快的語音學習氛圍,而且能開闊思路、豐富想象,從而增強語音教學的效率。
