四、教学过程
Step 1.Pre-reading
1.Greetings
2.Read the topic together
Tech:interesting,country
3.Free talk
T:Where are we from?
Ss:China.
T:China is a country.What other countries do you know?
Ss:...(学生回答了解的国家名称)
4.Match and say
You will see...in...(复习回顾五上U3 Culture time,以旧知引新知)
T:What do you think of ...? Do you like ...?
Tech:kangaroo(s),Australia(用自然拼读(Phonics)教“kangaroo”这个单词时,可以这样拆分和引导发音:
1. 单词拆分与发音规则- k:发 /k/ 音(如“kite”中的k)。- an:组合发 /æn/ 音(如“ant”中的an)。- g:这里发 /g/ 音(因为后接元音,区别于“giant”中发/dʒ/的情况)。- a:发 /ə/ 音(弱读音,类似“about”中的a)。- roo:组合发 /ruː/ 音(如“zoo”中的oo发长元音)。
2. 连读后的整体发音
将拆分的音节连起来:k-an-g-a-roo → /ˌkæŋɡəˈruː/。
可以让学生先逐个音节读,再连贯发音,比如:“k-an”(看) + “g-a”(哥) + “roo”(入),连起来像“看-哥-入”的谐音(帮助记忆,但需注意音标准确性)。

自然拼读对六年级学生学习英语有着实际的教学意义:
1. 提升单词拼读与记忆效率
六年级学生已具备一定词汇量,自然拼读能帮助他们通过“字母组合-发音”规则,自主拼读出符合规则的单词(如“environment”“communication”等较长单词),减少死记硬背的负担。
例如:看到“ch”发/tʃ/、“tion”发/ʃn/,可快速拼出“station”的发音,同时反向根据发音辅助拼写,提升记词效率。
2. 强化阅读流畅度与理解力
阅读中遇到陌生单词时,学生可通过自然拼读规则尝试拼读,减少查字典的中断,保持阅读节奏。
比如:读到“mysterious”时,按“my-ste-ri-ous”拆分音节拼读,结合上下文推测词义,提升独立阅读能力。
3. 优化发音准确性与语感
纠正中式发音习惯,如区分“th”的清浊音(/θ/和/ð/)、“ai”发/eɪ/等,让口语更地道。
通过拼读练习(如绕口令、歌谣)培养节奏感,为听力和口语输出打下基础。
4. 衔接高阶语法与词汇学习
自然拼读规则能辅助理解单词的词源和构词法(如“un-”“-able”等前缀后缀的发音规律),为中学阶段的词根词缀学习做铺垫。
例如:掌握“-tion”的发音和含义后,更容易理解“action”“solution”等词的关联性。
5. 增强学习自主性与信心
当学生能自主拼读单词、读懂句子时,会减少对老师的依赖,形成“见词能读、听音能写”的正向反馈,提升学习成就感。
总之,自然拼读对六年级学生而言,是从“基础词汇积累”过渡到“自主读写进阶”的关键工具,能有效衔接小学与中学的英语学习需求。
