【课例主题】
临港世外“师之蕴九年一贯初小衔接英语教师主题研修工作室”以“小学低年级主题引领下的单元整体设计”为主题,以Kids’ Stories中“The Chase”教学为例,探索“小学低年级故事阅读语言模仿学习”的有效方法。
【文本解读】
1. 课标衔接。课标要求在教学中,教师要强化素养立意,围绕单元主题,充分挖掘育人价值,确立单元育人目标和教学主线,围绕主题,依托语篇,设计体验、模仿、理解、应用等体现逻辑关联的语言实践活动,帮助学生建构基于主题的结构化知识;借助课堂任务单和板书,采用问答、描述和表演等活动内化所学语言和文化知识;通过小组讨论、制作展板或海报、创编故事,以及表演等活动,用英语交流和表达新的认知,体现对主题的理解。
2. 单元素养。本单元为牛津教材(上海版)第四模块“The natural world”中第一单元“On the farm”。

【执教反思】
一、学生立于课堂中心,培养兴趣以促学习
在这节课的教学设计中,教师始终遵循“激发兴趣、注重基础、培养能力、发展兴趣”的原则,以学生为课堂主体,力求活动能充分调动学生学习积极性。
在教学过程中注意创设情境,让学生在轻松愉悦的氛围中掌握知识。同时还注重学生的情感教育,通过游戏活动等方式激发学生的学习兴趣和热情。在课堂上,教师努力营造民主和谐的课堂氛围,鼓励学生大胆发言并及时给予肯定;尊重每个学生的个体差异性,善于发现每一个学生身上的亮点。比如在这节课中,教师注意到部分基础比较薄弱的学生对新词的掌握程度不高,在Practice by self的环节之后,教师先邀请了班级中英语水平较好的学生来模仿输出,此举可以帮助发音掌握不到位的学生再次模仿学习,以免部分学生被点到名后的输出出现问题,打击学习英语的自信心。
二、尊重学生年龄特点,活动设计有针对性
学生是课程活动的最大参与者与反馈者,教师要根据学生的认知特点,设计符合上课学生年龄特点的教学活动,开展多感官的语言实践,让学生在丰富有趣的语境中,通过感知、模仿、观察、思考、交流和展示,体验学习英语的乐趣,注重学科内涵。利用各种学习方式让学生在教学活动中发展他们的优势和才能,发现他们的兴趣和潜力,并增强他们的学习效能感。本课时的第一个教学环节为故事表演秀,符合一年级学生爱看乐学、活泼好动的年龄特点,激发了他们对“新剧本”的好奇与兴趣;在学习模仿环节配以不同动物的视频,打破传统课堂师讲生听的模式,让学生自己看视频、听音频模仿,提升了自主学习模仿能力,也给课堂增添了活力;此外,将本课时的驱动任务预先告知学生,能让学生在学习过程中以“表演秀”为目标认真纠正发音、形象模仿动物,更好地投入英语学习中。
三、重视学习能力培养,灵活安排课程进度
教师要结合学生参与各项具体学习活动的表现和完成系列学习任务的质量来考查单元学习情况,重点评价学生核心素养的形成和发展。本课时教学过程中,由于课时限制,学生同结构不同单词的句子操练不充足,教师注意到大部分学生对主文本的结构掌握到位,但某些单词发音还有很大进步空间,因此在本节课结束之后又安排了词汇复习课,帮助学生以旧句代“新词”,适当加入了单词自然拼读的规则,让学生利用规则多尝试拼读未学单词,让学生更好地掌握发音规律,培养他们的学习模仿能力。
总之,小学低年级的故事阅读的语言模仿学习课堂应该要着眼课堂的活泼性和有趣性,确保教学活动的实效性和有效性,教师应该不断提高自己的课堂诊断能力,积累教育智慧,与学生共同成长、进步,加强反思总结,成为不断进取、具有反思意识和创新精神的英语教师。
