Almost all literary works directly or indirectly express the eternal theme of human nature. "A Drop of Tears for a Drop of Water" is a stand where the writer Victor Hugo shows people the beauty and ugliness. First, students are invited to watch the movie clip "The Torture of Quasimodo".
(Students read the ppt)
This is the first time for students to come into contact with Hugo’s works. His works reflect a relatively old era. In order to stimulate students’ interest in reading, it is necessary to create a dialogue environment. I first elaborate on the topic of "human nature", introduce the learning content, and then play the video to let students have a preliminary understanding of the characters. When students watch the clips, they will have questions: Why was Quasimodo tortured? What is the outcome after being tortured? Why did Hugo create this character? Once the question is generated, the desire for dialogue will arise. Questions are the motivation and starting point for learning. The process of learning is the process of discovering, analyzing, and solving problems. When students have questions, they will be curious about knowledge, think deeply, and actively integrate into the classroom and participate in conversations.
2. Excavating the dialogue teaching material resource fragments Teacher 2: Now let the students freely read aloud the scene "Esmeralda gives Quasimo more water to drink". This is the most important scene in the whole text, and it is also the most touching scene.
(Students read aloud freely)
Student 1: Begged three times.
Student 2: The first time he asked with an "animal roar"; the second time he shouted with a "more heartbreaking voice"; and then he "screamed for a third time with panting" .
Sheng 3: It means that he has been beaten and exhausted.
Sheng 4: It means that he can no longer bear it.
Student 5: No, I was even more seriously insulted.
Teacher: Find out how everyone insulted Quasimodo.
Sheng 6: Someone threw a sponge soaked in the gutter at his face, someone threw a broken earthen pot at his chest, and even an old woman threw a tile at him.
Student 7: These are tears of gratitude. Quasimodo was really thirsty. The deputy bishop sneaked away after seeing it, but Esmeralda boldly gave him water to drink. Poor him. She couldn't be more grateful.
Sheng 8: These are tears of self-blame. Because Quasimodo was ordered by the archdeacon to kidnap Esmeralda on the road. Now Esmeralda does not hold grudges against him, but instead gives him water to drink, which makes him very sad.
To allow students to dialogue with the characters in the novel, it is necessary to explore the dialogue resources provided by the text. In the above case, question-and-answer teaching is adopted, and the teacher provides students with certain clues so that students can quickly find some specific information of the text, find the connection point between the students' mind and thinking space and the three-dimensional teaching goals from the teaching materials, and dialogue with the text. reveal one's feelings. Let students have a dialogue with the text, usually in the places where the understanding of the work is controversial, in the most exciting parts of the work, in the places where the emotional value of the work is sublimated, and in the places where students have the most profound emotional experience.
