Reflection after class
张老师整节课教学程序衔接紧密,过渡自然。板书设计抓人眼球,让孩子自己归类有共同发音的单词,锻炼他们的思考能力和动手能力,效果很好。张老师教态自然,给人感觉亲切大方,我相信平时也比较受孩子们喜爱,所以整节课的氛围还是比较自然轻松的。在教授完新知之后,适时地通过fill in the blanks,listen and read,let's think,let's share,think and say等训练巩固教学,效果比较好。另外我最喜欢的是张老师给予了孩子们大声说,大胆说的机会。让学生在实际运用中操练will的将来时表达,有利于孩子全面地掌握语法知识。
张莉老师整堂课的教学各环节过渡自然,教学目标明确,教学环节层层递进,通过活动,帮助学生突破教学重难点,既降低了教学难度,又非常有效的完成了教学任务。符合学生认知水平;设计有层次、有深度,特别是反馈形式多样,可见该教师花费了不少心思,如提问、对话等设计有坡度,并且都是为了一个共同的教学目标。
