       步骤一:热身活动

  

方案一:单纯词汇学习

 

       1.利用Warming Up部分的图片,教学挂图,网上图片等途径学习以下词汇:       

ADisneylandamusementshuttlesouvenirroler coastermerry-go-round, Ferris wheelridessneakerbrandequipmentadmission等。

 

2.利用词汇竞赛或者匹配练习等来学习以下词汇主要为抽象词汇

       Bvariousvarietychargeprofitathleticminorityfantasysetterexperimentadvancetechnology等。

 

       设计意图:因为该篇阅读材料中出现的生词较多,主题公园在全国的普及率并不高,广大偏远地区可能从未听说过,更不用说见过如roller coastermerry go-roundFerris wheelrides这样的设施了,所以这个活动是针对英语水平弱一点,或是对主题公园这一事物没有概念的学生来设计的,目的在于尽可能直观地引入词汇,扫除阅读障碍。

 

教学效果:因为有图片的介入,学生能够比较好地了解A部分的生词,但对于B部分的生词掌握尚不充分,有待于在后面的步骤中加以弥补和深化。

 

方案二:讨论式词汇学习

 

       1.由前一单元主题Body Language导人。准备若干张反映人们或有趣的动物玩过山车等刺激性活动的图片,尤其以突出面部表情的图片为佳,先隐去过山车等设施。设问:

       What kind of facial expressions can you recognizetell?

       What do you think they are doing?

由此导入roller coaster

 

       2.导入Theme Park的概念及相关词汇,设问:

       Where can you find a roller coaster?   

       What else can you find in a theme park?   

       Have you ever been to a theme park?

What was it like?

 

 

这里可以自然引入一个Brainstorming的活动,并利用该活动进行相应的词汇教学。

 

3.讨论Warming Up部分公园的类型,并适当涉及它们的异同,设问:

Are these all theme parks?   

Which are theme parks and which are not?

In what ways are they similar and in what ways are they different from each other?

 

4.公园类型分类,设问:

Sort the following parks into three groups

Common parks

                                                                                         

Amusement parks

                                                                                          

Theme parks

                                                                                         

 

 

设计意图:这种设计能自然而然地从上一单元(Body Language)学习过渡到本单元的话题上来,适用于对theme park有一定了解,并且英语水平中上的学生,因为不仅要求学生具有一定的背景知识,还要有一定的表达能力。 

 

教学效果:因为导人自然,活动对学生具有一定的挑战性,同时又符合他们的认知水平,所以较好地激发了他们的学习兴趣。

 

步骤二:读前活动

 

定义Theme Park。在Warming Up的基础上,请学生自己组织语言给Theme Park下一个定义,并相互交流,设问:

Work in groups of fourGive a definition to "a theme park" and write it down by using the Attributive Clause   

A theme park is a park where                                                                                                                   

A theme park is a park which                                                                                                                   

看哪一组给出最好的答案。

 

设计意图:归纳概括能力是良好的思维品质的一个方面,把零散的感性认识上升到系统的理性认识,这就是归纳概括能力,下定义是一种培养归纳概括能力的好方法;其次,通过写的活动可以锻炼学生运用定语从句的能力,如果学生的程度较好,也可以不给提示。

 

教学效果:该项活动对学生的挑战性比较大,但因为是小组合作,还是产生了不少好的定义.下面选用了部分学生回答:

A theme park is a park which is built based on a particular theme or idea

A theme park is a park which has a special theme

A theme park is a park where people can enjoy entertainment under a certain theme

A theme park is a park where you can not only enjoy yourself but also learn something

 

步骤三:阅读:Theme Parks-Fun and More Than Fun

 

1.读前预测。

Predict the main idea of the reading material according to the title

引导性问题如下:

What is likely to be the main topic of this passage?

Will it be about the history or development of theme parks?

Will the advantages or disadvantages be included in the passage?

Will the functions of theme parks be covered?

What other things may be talked about?

 

设计意图:读前预测或听前预测是一种很好的学习策略,它有助于学生充分调动已有的背景知识、认知结构等来接纳新的信息,符合建构主义理论。本题目实际上包含了本文作者想要传递的最主要的信息:主题公园是具有多种功能的综合性娱乐场所。

 

教学效果:本题目不难理解,加上教师的引导,学生大多能预测到关键信息是本文将涉及主题公园的功能。

 

2.略读。找出段落大意。 

Please find the main idea for each paragraphBlank filling (Exercise 3 in Comprehending)

 

设计意图:读前预测是否正确,需要通过分析段落大意来证实。通常情况下,篇章的段落是围绕着文章主题展开的。因此通过归纳段落大意可以验证推测是否正确。针对程度较弱的学生,可以提示他们去注意每一段的第一句话。它们经常是该段的主题句(Topic sentence)。如果找不到主题句,可以自己尝试着用Wh-类的句子来表达。

如:Para 1It tells what people can do in parks

   

教学效果:除第二、第六自然段外,学生们都可以在其余的四段中找到主题句。第六段的主旨大意比较明显,学生也比较顺利地完成,第二段信息比较散,学生遇到了一些困难。教师在今后的教学中需要进一步铺垫。

 

3.辨认文章主题。

Look at the main idea for each paragraph again and reconsider the meaning of the titleExercise 1 in Comprehending

 

设计意图:至此,学生对文章内容已有了较全面的了解,明晰文章主旨大意的时机已成熟。如果学生仍不能有效产出,可以利用下面的问题进行提示:

So what can people do in a theme park?

What do you mean by "fun and more than fun"?

 

教学效果:水到渠成,效果令人满意。

 

4.列举主题公园的三大功能。

Finish Exercise 2 in Comprehending   

Look through the passage and find out why people are interested in building theme parksThere are three purposes presented in the passageAfter you have found them, go on to give further explanation to each of them

 

设计意图:该项活动旨在培养学生的观察、分析和归纳能力。

 

教学效果:学生一般能迅速地找到To entertain这一目的;努力一下,可以找到To educate;但是To make profits这一目的不易发现。教师可以借助以下问题来引导:

Do people have to pay to go into theme parks?

What do they have to spend money on?

Will the owner of theme parks earn a large sum of money from this?

Will theme parks benefit the social economy?

 

注意:此时请学生反思一下遗漏该信息的原因将有助于提高阅读能力。

 

步骤四:制定暑假活动方案小组合作学习

 

TaskYou want to travel to one of the following theme parks in the summer vocationChoose one and give reasons to win your parents’permission and support (a student from another group acts as a parent)

Hong Kong — DisneylandHong Kong — Ocean Park

Beijing — The World ParkBeijing — The China Ethnic Culture Park

Shenzhen — Splendid ChinaHangzhou — the Leisure Expo Garden

Changzhou — China Dinosaur parkHuanglong — Sports Theme Park

 

设计意图:该活动旨在培养学生运用所学知识解决实际问题的能力。暑假将至,许多学生都会考虑制定出行计划,或远途,或短途,或随父母同行,或与朋友结伴而行,甚至独自旅行,去主题公园不失为一个好主意。关键是不仅要选择希望去的主题公园,而且要给出合理的理由来说服父母支持。通过该项活动的完成,不仅使学生进一步了解某个主题公园的全面情况,掌握更多的信息,而且在尝试说服父母的过程中提高了negotiation ability

 

教学效果:各组表现不一。有的小组推选一名组员来进行report,有的小组全体上阵,轮番演讲,有的小组组织严密些,有的小组松散些,但所有的小组都能完成该项任务的要求。以下为其中一组的成果:

 

 

如果在活动前详细规定发言时间、发言人数人次数、语音语调、流畅程度等评价标准,实际效果会更好些。

 

步骤五:作业布置

 

1Give a report on a local theme park if there's anyOr choose a theme park mentioned in the text if there isn't a local theme parkThe report should include the following information

 

 

2Go over the textand try to underline the expressions, structures and sentences which you think are good.

 

3Finish the exercises in "Discovering useful Words and expressions" in Learning about Language
