“中西寫作觀念在理論思維上的差異也反映在學校的寫作教學實踐中,不僅體現在寫作內容要求上,還體現在不同的教學方式上。中國傳統的寫作教學往往是“點悟式,”的,傳道者往往三言兩語,點到為止,然后靠受教者自己去揣摩,去體味,去領悟感受。歐美國家的寫作教學則更多地表現出邏輯分析式的方法。與中國的篇章結構有所不同的是,它以句子,段落,作文為三大支柱來進行系統的文章表達基本訓練。如傳授如何圍繞一個主題句或中心句,從句子發展為段落,有段落發展到篇章。”
外研社Book 1 Module 4 A lively city的閱讀課以對話的形式介紹了美麗的城市廈門,學生通過閱讀了解了這個充滿活力的的城市。于是我萌生了這樣一個想法,讓學生用英語描寫自己的家鄉。所以我把這節課的教學目標定位Learn to write a passage about a city。著重提升學生的寫作技巧,教學難點是如何寫一篇好的作文。
第一步,我讓學生讀課文,填表格,并抓住對廈門描寫的關鍵字。
接下來,我讓學生模仿課文的話題寫關于家鄉呂梁的一篇作文。第一段,學生寫對呂梁的總體概括。第二段,從地理位置,面積,人口,氣候,食物,自然風景,名勝古跡等方面來描寫呂梁。最后一段進行總結。所有的活動都是小組合作完成。最后學生展示自己完成的作文,老師進行評價。
下面是學生寫的一篇范文:
A Interesting City
Lv liang is an interesting, beautiful and quiet city.
Located in the west of Shan xi province, Lv liang is a mountainous city with a long history. It covers an area of 21,140 k㎡ with a total population of 3727 thousand. Every year, when summer is approaching, a number of people would like to come here to enjoy its fascinating mountain scenery. The climate here is pleasant, neither too hot in summer nor too cold in winter. It is rich in natural resources, such as coal, farm produce and so on. There are many famous places of interests, among which is Bei Wu dang mountain, whose scenery is very beautiful, attracts lots of tourists from different places every year. Here you can also find museums , cinemas, theaters, are galleries, parks, coffee bars and many other places where people can meet and exchange ideas. Whats more, you will have the opportunity to taste some delicious foods, such as noodles and dumplings as well as kinds of food made from potatoes. With the development of economy, many high-rise buildings have been put up recently, which is amazing.
In short, I think its wonderful to live in such an attractive place and I hope my home town will become better and better.
這節課,在教師的指導和學生的小組合作下,學生基本完成了指定任務,初步領悟到了寫作的步驟和方法。但也存在很多缺點。寫作雖然給出寫作要點,但還不是很具體,所以學生寫起來比較迷茫。希望在以后的教學實踐中,逐步完善。
