人教版高中英语必修一Unit 2 English around the world词汇教学设计

西安市长安区第六中学 张媛

    教材分析

   “世界英语”是本单元的中心话题，旨在通过本单元的学习让学生了解世界英语的发展状况,认识各种各样具有民族、地域特色的英语词汇以及它们的出现原因和不同之处。词汇部分设置连线、填空等形式的习题，同时让学生学会语言障碍的表达法，在运用中让学生巩固所学单词及词组，体会英美语言差异，并让学生能用所学构思方法写一篇关于英语学习经验的作文，培养学生就所给话题进行语言构思的能力。

    学情分析

    1.学习任务分析

    Warming Up 介绍世界英语，目的是丰富学生有关英美英语词汇的知识，激发学生对英语发展历史的兴趣。 Pre-reading部分设置了与主题相关的问题，在激活学生已有词汇知识的同时引导学生为下一步阅读做好准备。Reading是一篇介绍英语发展史的文章,描述英语在不同时期与不同文化的交融，说明世界英语词汇的形成原因,并对中国英语提出设想。Comprehending 以选择题和开放性思考问题的形式检测学生对课文的理解，培养学生词汇的思辨能力。这四个部分的内容进行重组，使词汇课堂更紧凑，内容更连贯。

    2.学情分析

    本节词汇课，课标要求学生掌握并扩展世界英语词汇的知识；在第一部分，学生要对相关词汇有所了解，第二部分通过文章强化词汇，第三部分通过练习巩固生词，最后扩展到词汇运用的写作知识。学生基础参差不齐，多数学生对阅读文中的词汇比较轻视，不具备良好的阅读习惯和较强的阅读能力，感受不到英语语言文化的魅力和学习英语词汇的乐趣。目前，学生上课以interpersonal的交流为主，而interpretative和presentational形式比重不够。学生的课外语言活动环境不够丰富，通常缺乏以词汇、语法和写作练习为主的语言运用。

    教学反思

    本节课设计这些练习是帮助学生学习本单元的新单词和短语，通过新的词汇例子来展现美国英语与英国英语的差异。在这一环节中，我设计了许多问答活动，都有所侧重，保证大部分学生能按时按质完成任务，鼓励全体学生积极的展现自我，形成自主学习意识。从教学实践来看，学生乐于在小组中进行合作学习和进行成果展示，但任务设计及其难度是开展小组合作的重点和难点。在任务型教学中，也融入了传统的板书和语言形式的操练，对学生的学习更具目的性、指引性。我在设计教学时充分利用各种教学手段，根据学生实际整合有限的课程资源，从多方面调动学生学习的积极性，特别是最后一个巩固环节，不仅要求学生回答问题，还结合作文的模式，让学生根据所给信息，完成“Why should we learn English? ”的主题写作任务。在这一环节中，让学生课后学会收集信息、处理信息，用所学语言去实践，既锻炼了学生听、说、读、写的语言运用能力，又培养了学生良好的英语学习习惯，也增强了学生学习英语的兴趣，从而提高了英语学习成绩。
