Design ideas:
1. Analysis of the teaching value of the work:
< p> (1) The story "The Taste of the Moon" is a picture book with an interesting plot and beautiful artistic conception. On the big picture on the first page, there are many eyes coveting the moon in the dark night. In order to reach the moon, the animals stacked one on top of another and built a ladder. In the end, the ladder not only did not fall down, but got higher and higher! The interesting content of the works firmly attracts young children. In view of the age characteristic of children in large classes who have significantly increased interest in reading, teachers can guide children to carefully observe some key pictures, develop rich imagination, discuss and discover methods of stacking.(2) This activity integrates literary works with scientific exploration. The plot of the work can make children full of curiosity, full of joy, and the urge to play, and explore in the same game with their peers." The secret of "stacking high" allows children to initially experience the fun and importance of cooperation, further triggering children's desire to explore again. The activity mainly adopts audio-visual lecture and operation methods. The first half is about looking, thinking, talking, discussing and discovering ways to stack heights. The second half uses practical operations to internalize and understand the externalized knowledge acquired by young children. Finally, the activities are extended to life and experience is expanded, reflecting the life-oriented learning. Continuation activities can also arouse children's interest in further exploration. In fact, this is the greatest value of this activity.
2. Analysis of children’s development level:
(1) Regarding the method of stacking high, the children in the upper class have accumulated some operational experience, but there is no "mystery" in the stacking method. But it's not clear. At the same time, children in the upper class are extremely interested in the process of changes and development of things, are willing to participate in activities such as exploration, operation, and experiment, and can actively try to find problems. This activity follows the interests of children in the upper class and poses certain challenges to their cognition and abilities.
(2) Children in the upper class like to make some speculations about the content and plot development of the story, and their thinking can move from "divergent" to "concentrated" more freely. Therefore, in the teaching process, teachers can use a variety of methods to present teaching content, so that children in large classes can feel and understand the content of the work and explore it through the use of various learning methods such as intentional listening, problem discussion, imitation operations, group communication, etc. Gain various experiences in the process, accumulate some experience, and become a "happy and active builder".
(3) The integration goal of this activity is based on the development characteristics of the two special education children integrated in our class. For common animals, Huang Yifan and Mao Xinyi can recognize and name them. In our integration activities, we often see children with strong abilities helping them learn skills, so this integration goal is feasible.
Activity process:
1. Introduction of courseware to arouse curiosity.
1. What is this? Note: Please ask a special educator to speak to young children.
2. Here is an interesting story about the moon. Let’s take a look. What is the name of this story? Note: Ask the special education children to retell it.
2. Listen to the story and understand the work.
1. Look at the PPT in sections.
Key questions:
(1) The turtle is so small and the elephant is so big. How should the elephant stand firmly on the back of the turtle? Isn't it hurt down there? Come and help them think of a solution. Pay attention to special education children and learn some movements.
(2) How do giraffes keep themselves balanced? Did he succeed all at once?
Summary: Sometimes things don’t succeed all at once. You have to try a few more times and don’t give up just because of failure. Can they reach the moon now?
(3) When a lion comes over, which way do you think it will be more stable with its head? Why?
Summary: The lion should stand in the same direction as the giraffe in order to stand more stable.
2. I want to discuss.
(1) The little mouse can successfully break the moon and taste the moon. Is it just his ability or what is the reason? (Guide children to talk about mutual cooperation)
(2) How did they reach the moon? (Stack them up slowly, stand firmly, cooperate with each other, cooperation is very important)
Summary: The small animals cooperate with each other one by one, move slowly when stacking high, and find a balance The secrets are like a stack of Arhats, standing firm and steady. If you fail once, you try again. Finally, you succeed and taste the taste of the moon.
3. Group cooperation and exploration methods.
1. Introduce operating materials and guide children to cooperate in pairs.
2. Children operate, and teachers observe and guide. Invite highly capable children and special education children to work together.
3. Exchange of experiences. (Highlight the importance of "balance and cooperation" in stacking and some tips to achieve success, such as: persistence, seriousness and meticulousness, etc.) Preset questions:
(1) How high can stacking Arhats be? What's the secret to success?
(2) Was it successful all at once? Have you ever failed? Did you give up in the end or continue?
(3) How did you cooperate during the process? Has it been discussed?
Summary: It turns out that there are many good ways to stack heights, but there is only one secret, and that is to maintain balance. Everyone needs to cooperate with each other when building together.
4. Expand experience and leave doubts.
Just now, our children and the little mouse played the game of "Stacking Arhats and Picking the Moon" together, and we also discovered that the key secret to stacking Arhats is to pay attention to balance. In fact, these phenomena also exist in our lives. Let's take a look.
Reflection on the activity:
1. Pay attention to guidance and cultivate children’s divergent thinking
Teaching starts by letting children observe pictures of the moon in reality, eliciting their opinions on Thinking about the flavor of the moon takes children from reality to the world of imagination. "What does the moon taste like?" The first child's answer was surprising, "It tastes like mooncakes." Faced with "Strawberry mooncakes taste" and "Lemon mooncakes taste" one after another, I affirmed but did not guide the children in time. Divergent thinking caused the imagination of the taste of the moon to change from surprise to monotony. In the process of imagining what the moon in the water tastes like, the children's answers seemed so rational, "The moon in the water has no taste." "It is the shadow of the moon, it is fake." "The moon in the water It tastes like boiled water. "It's ice cold," I asked many students, trying to find a childlike voice among them, but all the answers were so realistic. This once again made me realize that today’s children generally lack childishness and imagination. In this information age full of pictures such as TVs and computers, children see more and think less, becoming adults prematurely. , childhood has lost its childishness. In class, when faced with the children's non-childlike answers, I should have seized this opportunity to inspire and guide them to imagine, but unfortunately I was not very successful.
2. Pay attention to imagination and create imaginative space for children
Children nowadays generally lack imagination. Faced with this problem, what teachers have to do is to try their best to create imaginative space for children. Space and opportunity. Every picture book is a good material for cultivating children's imagination. In "The Smell of the Moon", "What does the moon smell like?" "How did the full moon on the cover become a crescent moon on the back cover?" "Little Animals" How did you eat the moon? "What happens between the little fish and the moon at the end of the story?" etc. These can provide space for children's imagination. When designing teaching, the biggest imagination space I created for the children throughout the class was what does the moon in the water taste like? What story will happen between the little fish and the moon? Ask students to use their imagination to talk about it. I considered the continuity of the story and felt that it was more reasonable to continue imagining along the development of the story, but I ignored the room for students' imagination and the students' imagination in such a space. Students' thinking is limited by water. In their perception, water has no taste. The moon in the water is the shadow of the moon. Small fish cannot eat the moon. Therefore, in this link, the children's imagination space is limited. became smaller. If it were changed to how you go to the moon and taste the moon, students may have more room for imagination when faced with such a situation.
3. Pay attention to language training and cultivate children’s ability to comprehend texts
Students in lower grades often lack language expression ability, so it is necessary to strengthen students’ language expression during teaching. train. When teaching, I pay attention to allowing students to express themselves as completely as possible when answering questions. They must pay attention to observation and express their meaning clearly. "The Taste of the Moon" is like most picture books. The plots in the development of the story are similar, and there are only some differences in the text expression, which makes it a good material for training students' language.
It is suitable for students in lower grades to learn language expression from imitation. Therefore, when teaching "The Taste of the Moon", I guided the students to observe the pictures while listening to me slowly telling the plot of the little turtle and the elephant in the story. The students heard the little turtle and elephant twice. If the animals are similar and have the same reaction as the moon, they can spontaneously imitate the language in the picture book, and then the rest of the story gradually becomes a story where the students and the teacher learn to use the language of the picture book to tell the story together. On this basis, I asked the students to think about what the little mouse did after eating the moon? While expressing their opinions, students sow the beauty of "sharing" into everyone's hearts. Sharing will make people feel happy, happy, and sweet in their hearts. Realizing the beauty of sharing, I asked the students to think about how the little animals eat the moon? Some students immediately felt the unity of the little animals. They worked together and never gave up. After working hard, they tasted the most delicious moon. Only then did they have a warm scene of huddled together and sleeping beautifully. I hope that this picture book class can sow the seeds of "sharing" and "unity" into the hearts of children, and they will sprout and bloom in future actions.
