A Modern and Popular City

曲鴻梅

Part 1：設(shè)計理念

教材分析：因?qū)W校是五四學制，學生六年級已經(jīng)完成了小初銜接教學，七年級上學期學習任務(wù)相對輕松。為進一步擴大學生的閱讀量，提高學生的閱讀能力，結(jié)合本學期所學內(nèi)容，有針對性地對學生進行課外閱讀拓展訓練。課外閱讀是課內(nèi)閱讀教學的輔助與補充，可有效解決七年級學生閱讀量不足的問題。在閱讀教學過程中，教師要注重培養(yǎng)學生對語篇的領(lǐng)悟與分析能力，更要重視培養(yǎng)學生的語言運用能力和文化意識。

文本分析：為滿足七年級學生的閱讀需求，本節(jié)課選取了一篇介紹哈爾濱的說明文。說明文是以說明為主要表達方式的文體，要求抓住事物的特點，采用舉例子、列數(shù)字等說明方法，客觀地來說明事物或闡明事理，要求語言簡明，說明方法嚴謹，文章結(jié)構(gòu)清晰，條理性強，便于學生讀后仿寫。

Part 2：教學目標

1.知識目標：（1）了解說明文的文體特征;（2）學習舉例子、列數(shù)字等說明方法。

2.能力目標：（1）引領(lǐng)學生“吃透”文本，把握說明文的文脈，培養(yǎng)學生運用所學知識表達觀點、口述同類文章的能力，最終提升學生的讀后仿寫綜合語言能力;（2）培養(yǎng)學生使用思維導圖對文段進行解析的技能。

3.情感目標：培養(yǎng)學生熱愛家鄉(xiāng)，熱愛祖國的情感。
