34、有举足轻重的地位。现行高中英语教材的阅读材料题材范围广泛,涉及到了天文、地理、历史、人物、日常生活、文学艺术、科学技术、环境保护、体育卫生等各个领域。广泛的题材有利于拓宽学生的知识面,培养学生的兴趣。阅读材料体裁多种多样,有记叙文、说明文、小说、传记,还有书信、日记戏剧、诗歌等,体裁的多样性能让学生在对比中了解英语的差异,有助于培养学生的语感。 本节课我以丰富的教学活动为载体,让学生在小组活动中通过合作和探究来完成各项任务,既有轻松愉快的诗歌朗读,又有需要深层思考的讨论活动,不同的任务设置激发了学生的学习兴趣和用英语表达的欲望。融德育教育于教学中,这不仅可以培养和提高学生运用语言的能力,还能使
35、学生受到深刻的思想教育,基本完成了本节课的教学任务。首先,课堂热身和导入部分充分激发了学生的兴趣,活跃了课堂气氛,使学生对阅读材料的主题思想有了直观的感受,为后期任务的实施起铺垫作用。其次,阅读理解的过程由浅入深、先易后难,符合学生的认知规律。再次,写作活动设计循序渐进,使学生能在真实情境中学以致用,提高了学生对语言的综合运用能力。同时课堂评价表的非测试性评价手段达到激励学生学习,帮助学生有效调控自己的学习过程,增强学生的自信心和成就感,培养合作学习的精神。另外,教学中还存在这些许缺陷和不足。首先,由于学生的词汇量小,对词汇意义的认识狭窄,影响阅读速度和理解程度。同时,学生语言基础不扎实,在表达自己的看法和用英语进行讨论时,不时有学生夹杂着汉语,或有的学生不敢大胆说出自己的看法。其次,教师对学生的学情分析还不够到位,导致个别问题设置过难。再次,在学生进行小组活动时,教师缺乏有效的指导和训练,为学生扫除语言困难。教学不仅是一门科学更是一门艺术,需要教师在实践中不断创新优化。
