篇7:小学生英语日记的写作方法
全文共 330 字
+ 加入清单1、思想重视的不够
随着各种教学法涌入我国,对我国英语教学影响最大的当数“听说法”和&ldquo,日记;视听法”。这些教学法提倡将英语作为一门工具来对待,侧重学生语言技能的训练。然而,我们在着意于口头技能培养的同时却忽略了书面阅读和写作,在强调语言结构形式的反复操练的同时却忽略了学生语言能力的培养,从而导致教师和学生轻视英语写作现象的产生。
2、写作素材的缺乏
教师对小学英语写作究竟要写些什么缺乏明确的认识。大部分写作练习表现为简单机械的抄写,学生容易完成,老师易于批改,但写作内容与学生生活缺乏练习。
3、母语文法的束缚
小学生刚刚接触英语,在表达的过程中难免受到母语的构词法、语法和思维方式的影响,用汉语的方式组词或组句,以至于出现大量的文法错误,让人啼笑皆非。
篇8:小学英语情趣课堂读后感作文
全文共 917 字
+ 加入清单再次翻开姚xx老师的这本《小学英语情趣课堂教学》时,说心里话真的是很痛苦,像是下了很大的决心。过了两个月的无拘束、无压力的生活之后,发现静下心来做一件事很难,尤其是读书。因为是王老师给我们下了死任务,只好硬着头皮去读。事实证明:有压力才会有动力。这句话说的一点儿也不假。我重点研读了本书的第六章。本章节向我们展示了一些优秀的情趣英语课堂教学设计与课例,精心的教学设计,精彩的教学预设,无不体现了编写教师的独具匠心。设计中体现了人文主义,从教学目标到教学过程,都很巧妙地将传统的“要我学”转换成了“我要学”。
第一部分以北京师范大学新版小学英语教材四年级下册第十单元 Mc’s stre 6个课时的教学内容为例,展开基于情趣教学思想想的教学设计。阅读的过程中,可以看出编写教师非常细心,把课堂上的每个细节都处理的很到位,包括课堂的一些预设,生成。这一单元是一个阅读课,一提到英语阅读,我的脑海中就是bring, difficult。纵观这六课时的教学设计,教师借助插图、对话,并通过肢体语言、声音、多媒体资源、设置有效情境,挖掘文本固有的情趣,给予学生适时的语言支持和铺垫,帮助学生理解语言,理解故事。一步步地帮助学生把握技巧,培养他们的阅读能力。成功地把阅读变成悦读,使它真正地变成一种乐趣。在今后的阅读课上,我会尽力效仿,使它变得不枯燥。
第二部分是姚老师本人执教的展示课例。就像姚老师所说“情趣教学着眼于对学生学习兴趣的诱导”。在教学设计上,教师立足于激发学生的学习情趣,并通过多媒体资源,为学生呈现多个自然又生动的教学情境。另外,姚老师的板书设计给了我耳目一新的视觉体验,能够立足于文本内容的同时,重难点突出,也符合中年级学生的认知特点。
读罢此书,心中感慨万千,作为教师,很佩服姚老师的那份执着,以及对教学认真的工作态度。相比之下,我是差太多了。在教学设计上,我也要有所创新:
1.导入部分需要为所学内容做铺垫,不能华而不实。
2.适当地体现小组合作的魅力,锻炼学生的语言运用能力。根据学生的能力,在适当时机把主动权交给学生,充分关注学生的主体意识,激发学生主动参与的热情。
3.注重教学设计的整体性,连贯性。

全文共 1885 字
+ 加入清单People are enjoying the comfortable life of the modern civilization,
meanwhile, they are also experiencing more and more competitions and suffering
much more stress than before.With the tremendous rhythm of living imposed by
todays world, it isnt unusual for people to feel tired and to try to evade from
the daily problems and stress. I think that there is no magic way that is
appliable to every one of us, and proves itself the most efficient method of
escaping stress. Each man has his specific activities that help him regain the
joy of life. For me the best activities to reduce stress and to forget about
problems are sleeping,playing football, going on a short vacation to the
countryside, attending live performances and spending time with my friends and
with my family.
First and foremost, sufficient sleep, needless to say, is indispensable for
each person, especially those encountering difficulties and suffering enormous
stress. There is no denying that sleep could bring the body sufficient rest,
modulate the function of each organ and release the body from stressful status.
Whats more, sufficient sleep would enable the brain operate more swiftly and
efficiently, thus making us more energetic to handle difficulties. Therefore,
not only could sleep loose the fatigue of the physical body, but also release
the mental stress.
What is more, I think that family is the most important thing in a mans
life. They are always there when you need them. Family provides support when you
need it most, helps you go through the difficult moments of your life.The most
important of all, their love for you gives you confidence in yourself, and makes
your life easier and a lot more beautiful. Friends also have an important role,
because you can evade from concerns by going out with them, talking about things
that are not related to your work, and sharing with them your problems and your
acheivements.

篇16:小学英语自由的
全文共 1635 字
+ 加入清单According to a recent article on Newsweek concerning children’s’ education,
there is an increasing number of parents worrying their kids to an extreme
extent, depriving them of independence and freedom by keeping them around
parents all the time.
Some people applaud this phenomenon, suggesting that kids’ safety is the
most important. Thus, they’d better not enter the hazardous society without
supervision unless they become adults. From my point of view, some of their
opinion is correct but keeping children away from independence is a completely
erroneous decision. The reasons are as follows:
First and foremost, “locking kids” may hinder their healthy growth, both
mentally and physically. The kids who are locked may have heavy reliance on
their parents, as their comprehensive skills such as communication skills or
cooperative spirit being prevented from developing.
Secondly, what these parents fail to see is the fact that the crime rate
and accidents aren’t on a rapid rise. It is the abuse of mass media that make
crimes and violence more scary. The parents, who love their kids so much, are
completely forced to live under the illusion that our society is full of riots
or threats of accidents. Thus, kids can be allowed to have more freedom such as
walking to school by himself, for instance.
From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw a conclusion that
kids should be given more freedom by parents’ effort. At the same time, parents
should take many factors into consideration such as the time restriction for
children and the evaluation to kids’ maturity and capability. Only then can they
enjoy a safe and meaningful childhood.
