科幻小说欣赏教学设计

1、科幻小说欣赏教学设计Senior English for China Students Book 2BUnit 12 Fact and fantasy-Reading 教学设计学科：英语 年级：高二下课题：Unit 12 Reading-Jules Verne: the father of science fiction一. 教学指导思想与理论依据高中英语新课程标准要求教师在课堂教学中指导学生形成有效的学习策略，培养学生的综合语言运用能力，在此基础上着重提高学生用英语获取信息，处理信息，分析问题和解决问题的能力。本节课的设计意图是以高中英语新课程标准提出的要求做为指导思想，运用语篇分析的理论指

2、导阅读教学。语篇教学法(Text approach), 实际上就是从语篇分析(discourse analysis) 入手，把语篇作为一个整体考虑，要求学习者从文章结构及内容入手，最大量地获取和掌握文章所传递的信息。语篇教学法是中学英语整体阅读教学的重要方法之一。有关研究显示，英语学习者对英语阅读材料中语篇结构的认识和理解能力与他们的快速阅读水平和获取信息的能力成正比关系。对语篇结构的认识和理解能力越强，其阅读速度就越快，获取信息的量就越大。二. 教学背景分析1. 教材分析本篇文章以“儒勒·凡尔纳-科幻小说之父”为题，主要介绍了科幻小说作家儒勒·凡尔纳（Jules Vern

3、e）与他的代表作海底两万里和地心游记 第一段是儒勒·凡尔纳的简介：包括他的出生、兴趣爱好、经历和生平成就。第二、三、四、五段简要介绍了海底两万里这本书，重点在对潜水艇和海底世界的描述上。尽管在当时已经有了潜水艇，但是那时的潜水艇是木制的，而凡尔纳小说中的潜水艇是铁制的，还具有huge glass windows、precious furniture和iron plates等。这样的潜水艇在当时是不存在的，当时的人们只能在儒勒·凡尔纳的书中见到这些。这也正是科幻小说的魅力所在。第六段则介绍了地心游记这本书，两个人受一封密码信的启发,进行了一次穿越地心的探险旅行。他们从冰岛的一

4、个火山口下降,一路上克服了缺水、迷路、风暴等各种困难,终于在一次火山喷发中从火山回到地面。通过阅读儒勒·凡尔纳的简介及他的两部科幻小说，理解“儒勒·凡尔纳-科幻小说之父”的真正含义。本单元阅读的要求是：在理解的基础上，重点训练学生阅读记叙文（narrative writing）和提取关键信息的能力。在本单元词汇方面，通过阅读学生可以理解lay the foundation、hunter、companions、submarine、overboard等单词和词组的意义。2. 学习者分析如果学生要很好地理解并掌握本课内容，必须具有一定的科学知识、英语基础知识和英语阅读能力，以达到

5、熟悉掌握本课内容的目的。学生已经在高二上册第一单元Scientists at work就接触到类似的人物记叙文，具备通过阅读提取人物相关信息的能力。而在阅读记叙文方面，学生也有一定阅读方法的储备，例如高二上册第十单元Under the volcano这篇文章的阅读方法会给学生一些启示。在内容方面，高二上册第六单元Life in the future中，也曾接触和想象过科技领域未来可能出现的新事物。可以说学生在高二第二学期，已经具备一定的科学知识与想象能力，因而学生可以理解这篇文章。三. 教学目标1. 知识与技能:1) 初步了解科幻小说之父-儒勒·凡尔纳以及他的两部科幻小说的内容。2)

6、 进一步了解学习并掌握记叙文的阅读重点和阅读方法。3) 根据文章标题预测文章内容的能力。4) 提高略读和跳读以及识别关键信息的能力。2. 过程与方法: 从学生的兴趣出发，设计可操作性强的阅读任务，让学生通过自主阅读和小组协作阅读，并对其进行讨论和交流；在完成阅读任务的过程中培养他们扫读、跳读、抓主旨等阅读能力，总结阅读方法，进一步形成有效的阅读策略。同时促进其情感动机发展，拓展其学习空间，并能用英语解决实际问题。3. 情感态度1) 培养学生阅读科幻小说的兴趣。2) 帮助学生树立正确的科学观。3) 激发学生的想象力。四. 教学过程和资源设计(一)教学流程图开始pre-task：共享图片；引出问题
