26、 under the buildingsreally think like a humandont know where they are when they wake uptalk like humans nowbuild cars教学反思：初中英语阅读教学既是教学重点，也是教学难点，培养和提高学生的阅读理解能力是也是本节阅读课的主要目的。本节课选自八年级 Unit7 Will people have robots?一节阅读课，这节课分为Pre-Reading、 While-Reading 、Post-Reading,在 Pre-Reading 部分我让学生了解相关的背景知识，对重点生词进行
27、学习，扫除学生的阅读障碍。在这一过程中我利用多媒体，融图画、声音、文字于一体，以声、光、色的直觉效应强化学生的观察、记忆、思维和想象，使学生的阅读从抽象向形象转化，使阅读的过程成为游戏和欣赏的过程，从而提高了他们对本课进一步学习的兴趣和热情。在 Reading 部分我主要采用小组合作的形式。课堂上小组共同阅读，合作学习，使学生在平等、协作、交流、讨论中，都有发言的机会、表现的机会、成功的机会。阅读活动中，小组内先读，先练说，每个学生都参与了活动。学生能选择一个水平适当的角色参与交流和探讨，在学习活动中互相帮助，共同提高，知识和情感都得到发展。小组竞赛更能激发全体学生产生健康、积极向上的心理，更
28、能保持和提高学生学习英语的兴趣，对提高阅读和交际能力起着积极的推动作用。 在 Post-Reading 环节中，我让学生复述文章内容，根据文章中的关键词句的提升，用自己的话把文章的主要情节和内容简明扼要地表达出来，以便让学生巩固已获取的语言信息知识，训练学生的记忆训练思维训练和口语表达能力。 当然，在本节阅读教学课中，也有许多值得改进之处。如：教学没有照顾到中等偏下水平的同学，课堂气氛不够活跃，今后要注意针对这部分的同学设置些更容易的问题，提高他们的自信心和开口说英语的能力。在个别环节没有为学生建立完善的思维导图，没有为学生的英语思维及时引导。通过本课的公开教学，我深有感触，教学永远是一门无止境的艺术，无论怎样构思教学，总要需要我们进一步改进的地方，因此，我也会不断的学习和提升自我，提炼自己的语言，为学生英语思维和语言的发展把好脉搏。
