高一英语Unit16《Scientistsatwork》Reading说课稿

1、高一英语下 Unit 16 Scientists at work Reading说课教案课题名称Unit16 Scientists at work（阅读课）教材版本现行人教版高中英语授课时间40分钟（ 2007 年 4 月）授课教师各位老师：大家好！我说的课题是高中一年级英语下册第16 单元 Scientists at work的第三课时Reading 。本单元的设计与实施是建立在学生经过高一上半学期新教材学习基础之上。学生已经逐步的适应了在活动与任务中学习英语以及如何处理语言知识与活动开展的关系。并且，他们也已经形成并培养了一定的小组合作学习及自主学习的能力。我说课的内容包括三部分，一是教材

2、分析，二是教法学法分析，三是说教学程序。一、 教材分析1、 单元背景分析随着科学技术的发展，各种各样新的发明和发现都层出不穷。生活在这样一个知识爆炸的年代，学生们更应用心去体会并感受科技和发明创造者给生活带来的变化，进而能联想到他们平时所学的学科及知识，并用英语为媒介进行知识的整合与串联。同时从另一个角度来说，科技进步的同时，我们的社会也产生了各种各样的矛盾与争论，因此如何正确的看待或处理这些问题，也成为广大学生应该了解并掌握的知识。通过学习伟人的事迹，走近科学家的精神世界，学习科学家为寻求真理的献身精神，求是精神，树立向上的学习和生活态度，培养学生高尚的情操。2、教材内容分析本课是高中一年级

3、英语下册，unit 16 Scientists at work中的 Reading.本单元的中心话题是 science and scientists 。话题依附于听力、对话、阅读与写作等语言载体中。本单元的话题内容与学生的日常学习有着密切的关系，应该说是以英语为媒体让学生表达他们对平时理化生等理科课程，特别是相关实验，所想到及感受到的内容。因此，尽管本单元的话题对学生而言有着一定的难度，但却有体现出了以学生为中心，贴近学生生活而又富有时代气息的特点。Reading 讲述的是科学家Franklin著名的风筝实验， 从而证明Lightingand electricityare thesame的故事

4、。学生在理解文章的基础上，能充分感受到实验对于科学工作的重要性及科学家是如何获得事业上的成功的，并了解作为一个科学家应具备的品质。同时能落实材料中所出现的一些单词与短语的使用。本课时主要分为三部分:1） Pre-reading. (读前准备 )“ 读前”部分是Reading 的前奏，要求学生填出所学理科课程领域18 世纪和 19 世纪的重要发现并阐释其之所以重要的理由。同时，还提醒学生回忆自己曾做过的一次科学实验及其感受，以便于学习阅读部分的福兰克林的实验。2） .Reading (阅读 )“阅读”部分详细描述了富兰克林所进行的一次科学实验：在电闪雷鸣时放飞风筝以验证闪电和电的关系。文中详细记

5、述了富兰克林实验的目的、材料、过程、注意事项和所得结论。通过该篇文章的学习，学生要学会如何描述实验过程（这一点非常实用） ，并学习富兰克林对科学的执着、探究精神。3） Post-reading（读后）“读后” 部分共设计了三种类型料到练习：练习 1：通过挑选正确论述检查学生对课文的细节理解。练习2：是三个问题，涉及此次实验的一些科学常识。练习3：以图片形式检查学生对课文中提到的实验条件及方法的理解，图片2 展示实验情景，图片4 展示风筝制作过程。图片1 和 3 不正确。用心爱心专心1三部分旨在培养和提高学生的阅读能力，所以特将此三部分科学地整合成一节阅课。3、教学重点1）、能继续运用各种阅读微

6、技能进行有效的阅读，同时能在阅读中继续培养猜测单词词义的能力。同时掌握文中出现的单词与短语的使用。2）、能进一步了解一词多义及合成词的知识。以便能更好的区别单词词义与猜测单词词义，利用构词法知识扩充词汇量，并能真正做到为阅读服务。4、教学难点1）、能就课文内容完成一些开放性的话题讨论，能把课文的内容得以延伸与拓展。2）、掌握并运用一些key words and expressions, such as make /do an experiment on, comfort,conduct,charge,a greatof,prove,tear,sharp,explain,pickout,test

7、on, doubt,conclusionand so on.3) 、指导学生通过各种渠道如图书馆、网络等资源查找资料。5、教学目标根据课文特点及新课标对高一年级学生英语学习能力的要求，本课的教学目标我定为以下两个方面：一、语言目标，二、情感目标和文化意识。1）语言目标语言知识词汇：学习并使用一些与science和 scientists有关的词汇。语法：进一步了解一词多义现象与合成词的构成。功能：学习如何就某一事物给予别人指导与说明。话题：掌握有关实验说明的话题表达以及如何从正反两方面对某一话题进行分析讨论。语言技能强化略读、查读等阅读微技能，训练通过寻找关键词，主题句等方式更快速并准确的确定文

8、章的段落大意，理清文章的总体框架与脉络。继续运用已经掌握的基本猜词技巧猜测部分单词，并在上下文体验中感受某些佳句给读者带来的深层含义。2） 情感态度与文化意识（ 1）进一步培养小组合作学习的能力，通过调查、采访、讨论等活动完成任务，取长补短，加强团体协作意识。（ 2）引导学生用英语进行不同学科特点的思考， 体会学科之间的联系与区别。通过话题启发学生积极思考，调动学生的学习兴趣。（ 3）指导学生用批判的思维去接受新的事物，增强他们的辩论意识与能力。（ 4）意识到科技工作的艰苦以及所必需的个人品质与素质， 鼓励学生在学习过程中的创新精神与实践能力。二、教法学法分析（ 1）以任务型教学(Task-b

9、ased Language Teaching)作为课堂教学设计之理念，具体采用情景教学法（ Situational Approach），交际教学法（Communicative Approach），整体语言教学法（Whole LanguageTeaching ）等教学方法。（ 2）在教学中突出交际性，注重读写的实用性；同时适时进行情感与策略调整，以形成积极的学习态度，促进语言综合运用能力的提高。（ 3）坚持“教师为主导，学生为主体，任务为基础”的教学原则，在课堂教学的不同环节教师应扮演自身作为“设计者，研究者，组织者，促进者，协调者”的角色。（ 4）贯彻“教中学，学中用”策略，真正使学生学以致用

10、。为了能很好地突出重点，突破难点，圆满完成教学任务，取得良好的教学效果，我抓住重点，联系实际，以学生为主体，教师为主导，让学生集中练习。为了激发学生的兴趣愉快地学，我采用竞猜游戏、快速阅读 （查读） 得出课文段落大意、讨论和媒体实例演示等教学环节，让学生充分体现课堂教学“主体者”用心爱心专心2T: Attention, please. We all know that it is the scientists great achievement on science. Today, we are going to learnkite experiment. First, let s come

11、to Pre-reading Step 3. Pre-readin gGroup competition:Step 2. Leading in：的身份。指导学生运用已学会的抓重点、做记号、摘笔记等方式对所学内容进行整理与归纳，并鼓励学生增加与教师和同学交流、合作，继续培养正确的自我评价与相互评价的习惯，从而总结交流学习所得，进一步形成有效的学习方法。并指导学生把英语学习从课堂延伸到课外，发挥已掌握的使用工具书，查找资料、上网等方式增加用英语思维与表达的能力， 了解实验对于科学研究的重要性， 树立正确的向上的学习态度，形成具有批判性的看问题习惯。三、说教学程序 Step 1.Revision 1

42、.(In order to show that lightning and electricity are the same, Franklin built a strong kite.When the bad weather came, he did his experiment by using his kite and condenser. He found that the string was getting charged and he could feel a light but very clear electric shock. So he stored much electricity in the condenser. This experiment proved his idea.To do this experiment, four objects are needed: a kite, a key, somebad w
