Ⅲ. Designing thoughts of teaching 教学设计思路

我对教材进行了重组，把Warming-up， Pre-reading， Reading和Comprehending三部分整合为一节阅读课，在课前预习时落实相关词汇，为堂上的阅读教学奠定基础。尝试了“五步阅读教学法”和“愉快教学法”，符合学生的认知规律。在新课程理念下，教师只是作为辅助者的角色，体现出“以学生为中心”的原则，通过“以听促读”“挖空填词”“以写促读”“以做（表演）促读”的方式培养学生的阅读理解能力； 在点评环节，本人设计了学生自我评价量表，充分发挥学生的主导性，让其更充分客观地了解自我学习效果；另外，该话题“body language”易在生活中体会运用，容易激发学习热情，通过小组讨论，小组合作，角色扮演，课堂练习及探究性活动， 提高学生学英语的兴趣。

我深深感受到时代发展对教学工作者提出的要求越来越高，课后我对本节课进行了认真的反思。我以“Body language—身势语”为中心话题，运用了图示理论，围绕课文中涉及到的“身势语”的定义，如何理解“身势语”，以及“身势语”的跨文化性等来设计活动，从文章大意到细节，从词汇到句型再到文章结构，帮助学生由浅入深地全面了解课文，并让学生明确了身势语在人类交际中的重要性。巧妙地把握了预习、预设环节，促进了教学效果的生成，并让学生对自己的阅读行为进行量化反思，体现了反思性阅读；创设各种情景，鼓励学生用英语思维，发展听、说、读、写的综合能力；师生间能够建立起融洽、民主的交流渠道，做到教学相长，体现了“素质教育”的精神。
