“在小小的花园里面挖呀挖呀挖,
种小小的种子,
开小小的花······”
曾几何时,你也被这样的旋律“洗脑”?关于“植物种植”这个话题,对于小学生来说并不陌生,却也足够有趣。
在“人与自然”“人与自我”两大主题范畴之下,教师究竟应该如何设计教学活动,才能最大化发挥主题的意义,培养学生在相关方面的思维方式,进而实现核心素养的提升?
在四季杏坛郑州场,来自珠海市香洲区潮联学校的刘秋敏老师为我们带来了一节极具参考价值和启发性的课例,让我们一起来看看吧!
课例信息
教学素材:《英语》四年级下册 Unit 1 : The School Garden (Close Reading)

授课年级:五年级
课堂实况
教学目标:引入主题,激活旧知。
教学活动:
Guess T's favorite plants
Observe the picture and say: I can see... in the school garden.
Guide Ss to classify the plants: fruit trees, fruits, flowers, vegetables...
Q: What's your favourite plant? (Why?)
A: I like ... (because...)
教学目标:
(1)学生在看、听、说、读、演的活动中,理解文本大意,提取关键信息,以可视化思维导图为导向进行总结;
(2)基于对文本大意的理解,学生进一步感知目标语块,也在教师的引导下拓展植物的相关表达;
(3)在由浅入深的问题引领下,学生应当结合自身经验初步体会一些植物所具有的美好品质,如坚毅、乐观。
教学活动:
Listen and choose: What are they talking about?
(1) Read and circle the opinions: What plants do they like?
(2) Read and underline the reasons: Why do they like these plants?
(3) T guides Ss to read the passage carefully with the help of a series of questions, during which T should present other chunks based on the context and finish the mind map step by step.
Meanwhile, Ss should read with emotion and body language to get a deeper understanding of the reading.
Bamboos:
a. When the wind blows,what happens to bamboos?
b. What's the meaning of “bend” and “break”?
c. What can you learn from bamboos?
Sunflowers:
a. Why are the flowers called “sunflowers”?
b. What other flowers do you know? What do they look like?
An apple tree:
a. What can an apple tree grow like?
b. Do you know other fruit trees?
c. Do you want to grow fruit trees? Why?
教学目标:学生结合生活经验及个人喜好,充分利用从阅读中学习的语料,在思维导图的帮助下,在新的情境中表达自己想要种植的植物及其原因。
教学活动:
Post-reading
(1) Summarize the reading by the mind map.
E.g. Yiming, Aiwen and Sam are talking about what they want to plant. Yiming wants to grow... because... Aiwen wants to grow... because... Sam wants to grow... because ...
(2) Read together with emotion and body language.
(3) Design a new garden.
Finish your own mind map
Pair work
Ss talk about what plants they want to grow and why they want to grow them with their friends by using the mind map.
Sentence bank: I want to grow... because... What about you?
Group work
Ss work together to design a new garden, finish a group's mind map, and come to the stage to present.
在“Design a new garden”的任务中,刘老师先是给出一个示范视频作为脚手架,而后又让学生通过自行绘制思维导图的方式,完成语言的输出。

教学目标:学生能够将目前所学形容植物的表达迁移运用到广东流行植物的表达上,进一步了解植物承载着不同文化赋予的意义。
教学活动:
Homework
Must do:
(1) Read the passage aloud.
(2) Design your plants picture book. Let’s have a picture book show next class!

Q: Why do they want to grow it?
专家点评
中国教育科学研究院研究员、中国教育学会外语教学专业委员会理事长龚亚夫老师详细点评并指导了刘老师的课例。
龚老师认为,本节课的核心内容远远不止让学生选择种什么植物、探究种植的意义,而是让学生学会“观点+理由”这样的思维方式。这种思维方式是超越学科的,即使学生毕业之后,不再使用英语,他仍然可以以这种方式来思考和表达,这才是核心素养,是教育的目标。
通过英语培养学生的核心素养,不是仅仅停留在教学生讨论某一话题,而是通过话题培养一种超越话题本身的思维方式。
刘老师的课有一个很重要的特点,就是利用思维导图,通过写出关键词,再把关键词变成句子,帮助学生在这个过程中实现知识、表达和思维的结构化。
今后的外语教学越来越多地需要老师们关注背后深层的设计,因此老师们也需要不断地进行学习。
