【单元主题的生成】
➢ 课标分析
英语学科核心素养是学生在接受相应学段英语课程教育的过程中,逐步形成和提升的适应个人终身发展和社会发展需要的必备品格和关键能力,综合表现为四大素养,由语言能力、文化品格、思维品质和学习能力组成。其中,文化品格是指对中外文化的理解和对优秀文化的认同,是学生在全球化背景下表现出的文化意识、人文修养和行为取向。文化品格体现英语学科核心素养的价值取向。文化
品格的培养有助于学生树立世界眼光,增强国家认同感和家国情怀,学会做人做事,成长为有文化修养和社会责任感的人。本单元教材中主要涉及到几部经典英美文学作品,但在本单元主题教学设计中,将此话题拓宽为学生自己喜欢的任一小说,向同学们推荐,经典的、流行的、国外的、传统的缤纷呈现,通过对小说主题的挖掘,在一定程度上加深了对中外文化的理解和对中国优秀文化的认同。 ➢ 学情分析
小说阅读
从初一到初二下,学生有了一定小说类文本阅读量的积累,初一上进行了校本自编教材Fiction Reading的推进,从加州教材Treasures中收录了若干童话、神话、传说等短篇阅读篇章,初一下和初二上,利用寒暑假的时间阅读了英文原版小说Charlie and the Chocolate Factory和The BFG。语文学科也有一些必读书目,从而学生有一些共同的小说阅读经历,比如《鲁滨逊漂流记》《汤姆.索亚》《海底两万里》《三体》《小王子》《骆驼祥子》《水浒》《狼图腾》,也有一些个性化的阅读,比如Harry Potter,My Sister’s Keeper,Lord of the Flies,The Great Blue Yonder,Jane Eyre,Pride and Prejudice…
小说分析
关于分析小说,学生也积累了一些经验,每学期开学伊始的两周会集中分析假期读过的小说,

小说的分析主要从四个角度展开,人物分析、情节分析、主题分析、语言分析。
1) 人物分析,主要通过分析看得到的人物外貌、语言、动作,挖掘看不见的人物心情、人物思想、
人物品质、人物变化和人物关系;
2) 情节分析,主要抓住小说的几个要素,主要人物在特定环境下发生的事,但是因为小说相对于
短篇故事来说人物和情节更为复杂,所以我们可以将小说的情节发展分为几个阶段,exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, resolution,然后按照小说发展的阶段逐一分析此阶段的时间、地点、人物和主要事件,最后小说的情节脉络就比较清晰了;
3) 主题分析,通过一些可视化的思维路径挖掘小说主题,比如Cause& Effect Chain,不断挖掘结
果背后的原因,层层接近小说的核心主题。还可以设计一些基本问题,通过对基本问题的探讨,不断挖掘小说主题。同时,用 “Find the perfect quote to float your boat.”或者 “What do you read that makes you say that?”去追问学生,从而进行有理有据的表达;
4) 语言分析,对于初中阶段的学生,metaphors和similes对于他们理解小说,或者在日常写作中
进行形象表达都有非常大的帮助,这些修辞之前进行过专题学习。
有了以上的积淀,本单元聚焦小说的交流也就水到渠成,而交流的目的是为了分享,分享是为了遇见下一本自己想读的好书。所以本单元的主题定为:Share What We’ve Read & Meet What We Want to Read. 教材分析
本单元是人教版教材八年级下册Unit 8 Have you read Treasure Island yet?本单元话题是文学,文学可以分为诗歌、散文和小说等,本单元主要聚焦小说,教材中主要呈现了《爱丽丝梦游仙境》《小妇人》《鲁滨逊漂流记》《金银岛》《汤姆索亚历险记》《雾都孤儿》等六本经典小说的场景片段,其目的不仅仅在于让学生了解这些文学作品的名称、内容及相关的语言知识,同时还希望通过与文学作品相关的听说读写活动,激发学生对英语语言文化的兴趣,学会如何与人探讨和交流文学作品,发表自己的观点和看法,从而提高学生的文学素养和人文素养。
向别人推荐一本小说,自然要介绍书的主要内容,关于这一点,教材中有若干范例,比如 The Little Women is about four sisters growing up. Tom Sawyer is about a boy who lives in the United States.
Treasure Island is about a boy who goes out to sea and finds an island full of treasures. 通过观察这几个示例,学生可以在一定程度上总结出归纳概括小说主要内容的方法,但由于过于简短,满足不了不同水平学生的需求,所以在这方面做了一定的拓展:
Tom Sawyer is about a young orphan boy living on the banks of the Mississippi River. Robinson Crusoeis about a man who is shipwrecked on a desert island, lives off the land for 35
years.
Oliver Twist is about an orphanwho runs away from the workhouse, is taken in by a group of
thieves and is finally adopted by a gentleman. 3
Alice in Wonderland is abouta young girl who falls through a rabbit hole and gets transported to
another land where she meets characters like the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter.
除了介绍小说的主要内容之外,向别人推荐时,更主要的是加上自己的评论,但是如何写书评,相比较归纳概括小说主要内容,对学生来说是一个更大的挑战。Goodreads这个应用,其创建的主要目的就是为了满足读书爱好者总在寻找下一本好书的需求,其宗旨是Meet your next favorite book. 上面有大量的书评,而且评论来自大众读者,评论的质量介于专业书评和寥寥几句泛泛评论之间,正好符合初中生的阅读水平。
《小王子》是当下语文学科共同阅读的一本小说,所以关于书评,锁定The Little Prince,从海量评论中,梳理出书评的几个角度,比如Feelings while reading,Ideas the writer wants to convey,Influence the book has made on me,并且整理出结构相对良好的阅读材料,供学生阅读发现书评的角度和可迁移的语言(详见课时教学设计):
Apr 08, 2009K.D. Absolutely I taste different feeling while reading this book. …...
May 23, 2016Ritu R
This is a book of just about 80 pages, but the idea in it is far, far greater. ……
Dec 30, 2016the Cat Lady The Little Prince is life changing for me.
