一、教材分析
本課的主要任務是幫助學生理解和掌握TV Report 這種題材的文章。通過相關圖片導入端午節這一主題,并以討論的方式滲透我國傳統文化,利用視頻引入與端午節的相關詞匯。基于文章介紹新聞報道結構,并根據文章結構獲取文章中心思想,通過師助、生助和自助的教學方式引導學生自主思考和探究。最后,就中學生國外留學畢業后是否回國這一話題進行辯論。在辯論中進行語言思維訓練,培養學生的責任擔當意識。

七、教學評析
閱讀是“通過視覺感知語言信號后大腦處理、加工與理解信息意義的心理過程,它全靠讀者自己的思維、語言能力與知識水平理解語言”。閱讀理解在某種程度上說既是思維過程,又是思維結果,閱讀思維能力的強弱直接影響著閱讀理解的效果。由此可見,在英語閱讀教學中一定要注重對學生思維能力的培養和訓練,這是提高學生閱讀理解能力的一個不容忽視、不可低估的重要環節。
本節課高老師利用“提問—鞏固舊知,提問—輸入新知,提問—理解內化,提問—輸出新知”四個環節構建整節閱讀課的框架,讓問題貫穿課堂始終,讓恰當、合理的問題牽引學生的思維,達到理解文章內容,深化加工再輸出的目的。
高老師在導入環節通過“What are they doing?”這類簡單問題,既復習了閱讀課中出現的語法現象,又引出本堂課的話題。
高老師在while-reading(讀中)環節,通過“Whos the story about?”“Where is Zhu Hui studying now?”“Who is Zhu Hui living with?”“Are the host family celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival? Why?”和“Does Zhu Hui like his host family? What does he think about his home in China?”五個問題,形成問題鏈,給出文章的整體框架,讓學生帶著問題去理解文章,不僅可以幫助學生提取文本信息,了解文章的內容和意義,還可以幫助學生在理解的基礎上,形成自我的語言圖式,發展學生的思維。
高老師在post-reading(讀后)環節,通過“Why Zhu Huis family invite his aunt and uncle on the Dragon Boat Festival?”“Zhu Huis mom and aunt are making zongzi, however, his dad and uncle are watching the boat races. Why?”和“Lead students to have a deep thinking —— Whether they agree with Zhu Hui or not.”等進一步深化且可探討問題的設置,讓學生在小組內進行合作式學習,培養學生合作式的思維,提升學生閱讀理解能力的同時,也提升學生獨立思考和合作學習的能力。通過“If you were Zhu Hui, you would come back to China or not after graduating from America? Why?”的問題,聯系生活實際,培養學生的批判性思維。教師在閱讀課教學中,教學目標不能僅滿足于學生對文本字面意思的理解,大概內容的復述,還應讓學生理解文章所滲透的情感、態度和價值觀,培養學生獨立分析、評價,甚至是質疑的能力。高老師通過問題設置辯論的小環節,可以讓學生在辯論的過程對文章進行深入、批判性的理解,還能讓學生在理解的過程中,內化、深化、轉變成自我思維,進而輸出、表達。
高老師在作業環節設置一個開放性的作業,綜合運用本節課的相關知識,激發學生的創造性思維,既拓展了教學內容,又培養學生創造性運用語言的能力,而且運用現代化的手段檢查作業也激發了學生的興趣,給學生以新意,激發學生完成作業的動力。
