First, thinking before the activity
1, teaching material analysis
Children have always been interested in animals. Strong elephants, in particular, have always been the image of Hercules in the eyes of children. Smart little monkeys are lively, smart and naughty, and they are children's favorite. When these two small animals come to compete with water skills, how will the children react? This textbook is to understand the habits and appearance of two animals through children. Use your imagination, fully tap their strengths and start a debate. Finally, let the children know that each animal has its own different skills, depending on when their skills are used and what they do. At the same time, compared with small classes, the conversation goal of middle class emphasizes the selectivity of Qing court children, that is, "listening to the information in other people's conversations differently" In this activity, guide children to learn to listen while studying, and learn to talk around the topic and stay on topic on the basis of capturing effective dialogue. In the rules of language communication, it also emphasizes "taking turns to speak".
2. Key points and difficulties
The key and difficult point is to guide the conversation around the topic and let them know that monkeys and elephants have different skills.
Second, the process record
(1) Activity objective:
1, guide children to talk around the topic and know that each has its own uses.
2. Guide children to speak in turn and cultivate children's good listening habits.
3. Experience the fun of talking and enhance self-confidence.
(2) Activity preparation:
1, elephant and monkey puppet, each with a head.
2. There are several prizes.
(3) Activity process:
1, show puppets and introduce topics with story situations.
Teacher: "In the forest, there lived an elephant and a monkey. They are very good friends. But one day, they quarreled. Why did they quarrel? It turns out that they want to compare technology. The elephant says my skills are great, and the monkey says my skills are great, too. No one can tell the difference between them. "
Teacher: "So, children, who do you think has the greatest skill?"
(Comments: The teacher tells stories with bag monkeys and elephants, which is very lively, interesting and effective. In this process, the children stared at the classroom unblinkingly and entered the dialogue scene smoothly. Because middle-class children have initially understood the functions of general animals, they have something to say when discussing "who has the greatest ability". )
Children talk about their ideas and discuss their reasons.
* Teacher: "Just now, some children thought that elephants were capable, while others thought that monkeys were capable. Why do you think so? Please gently tell your thoughts to the children next to you. "
(Comments: In the activity of "Speak freely", some children said that elephants have great skills, because elephants can roll wood, absorb water, spray water and trample wolves to death. Some children say that monkeys have great skills because they can climb trees, pick fruits and jump around trees. These statements should be affirmed, because they say "who has the greatest ability". )
3. Small debate.
* Teacher: "Just now, all the children have their own ideas. Ok, let's have a little debate today, shall we? "
Please all the children stand up. The children are divided into two groups according to their own wishes: the elephant team and the monkey team. The children sat face to face.
* The teacher introduced two groups and asked them to cheer for themselves and stimulate their children's emotions.
The teacher announced the rules of the debate:
* Ask the members of the two teams to take turns to speak, and don't interrupt casually.
* which group of children love to use their brains, and those who obey the rules will be given a prize flower.
4. The debate officially began, and the teacher guided the children to speak around the theme, with clear rewards and punishments.
The teacher summarized the debate.
(Comment: This is the climax of the whole activity. The teacher makes every child want to express himself freely by letting the children group freely. Because of the intense discussion, it is inevitable that children will form a situation in which everyone is vying to talk together during the conversation. In this way, the requirements put forward by the teacher let the children understand the rule of "taking turns" and the role of the application of this rule in the conversation process. )
6. The teacher sets a situation: The lion king wants to eat coconut, but the coconut tree is across the river. Lions can't swim or climb trees, so they can only ask elephants and monkeys for help. Children, who do you think will finish this task?
The teacher concluded: Only when elephants and monkeys help each other can this task be completed. They are both very skilled. It depends on when their skills are used and what they do.
(Comment: This link is the difficulty of the whole activity. The teacher asks questions step by step in the situation set for the children and guides the discussion in depth at different levels. Finally, it is concluded that two people need to cooperate to complete this task. )
7. Migration activities:
Let the children talk about what other small animals you know and what skills they have.
(Comment: "Expanding the scope of conversation" is an important part of cultivating children's ability. It not only helps children expand the scope of conversation, but also understands the relationship between nature and animals. )
Third, reflection after the activity.
This activity is a very interesting activity for children and fully embodies the characteristics of language activities. Children like to talk, have the opportunity to talk, and can speak bravely. This is because teachers create a free and relaxed language environment for children, such as free conversation, group conversation and individual conversation. Give children a chance to exercise. The teacher's activity design idea is also very clear, and the children easily solve the important and difficult points in the whole activity by introducing topics-free conversation-group conversation-to expand the scope of conversation. Just because children know that elephants and monkeys are just some common functions, the center of the conversation is just around elephants absorbing water, animals rolling and being big. Monkeys can climb trees and swing. Without much experience, it is difficult to go deep into the topic. If you let your children go home before class and learn more about the uses of these two animals, the effect may be better after class.
