本堂课的重点在于通过学习对比写作手法,让学生体会物质社会背景下父子间的亲情与陪伴的价值。通过解读文本,层层推进,分析文中父亲一言一行所浸透的爱,准确把握文章传递的信息。引导学生关注文章所折射的社会问题,触动心灵,感恩父母、感恩身边默默陪伴自己的人,融思想教育于教学中。注重培养学生预测信息的能力及理解归纳的能力。本堂课的设计体现了“以学生为主体,教师为主导”的教学理念,注重创造良好的参与条件,提供合适的参与机会,鼓励学生踊跃参与。
(一)文本话题内容分析
授课内容是美国作家BobGreen笔下的A father and a son,作者以一位目击者的身份出场,通过他的视角,观察一对不富足的黑人父子在区间列车上的言行举止。通过作者的一番感悟,引发读者对“陪伴”问题的反思。在现代物质社会背景下,父母与子女的关系已然成为一个热点话题,关注度很高,而“陪伴”话题更能触动处于敏感期的高中学生的心灵,学生无形中会进行反思,在文章中到自己的影子。
(二)文本体裁结构分析
文本体裁不同,其框架、写作手法、语言特点也会不同。教师可以从文本体裁入手,给予学生必要的指导,使其了解文本的体裁结构和篇章模式,从而掌握各种文体的阅读方法。
本课的文本体裁是记叙文,那么,“五要素”便是本课得以开展的突破口。本文的写作手法是对比,父子相伴带来的快乐与冷漠无情的周围环境的对比;这对父子的衣着与周围人的衣着的对比;这位父亲爱孩子的方式与其他父母爱孩子的方式的对比。
(三)文本语言分析
1.At the front of the first car—looking out the window at the track that lay ahead—were a man and his son.
2.“Here we go!Hold on to me tight!”the father said.
3.“Look out there!”the father said to his son.“See that pilot?I bet he’s walking to his plane.”The son craned his neck to look.
4.“I want to ride some more!”
“More?”the father said,mock-exasperated but clearly pleased.“You’re not tired?”
“This is fun!”his son said.
“All right,”the father replied,and when a door opened we all got on.
5.“Where are all these people going,Daddy?”the son asked.
“All over the world,”came the reply.
阅读这些句子,学生宛如直观电影的每一个镜头,聚焦了镜头中父亲和儿子坐在机场区间车前排一起看风景的喜悦、父亲对孩子的安全和身心的关注、父亲与孩子平等的交流、父亲耐心倾听并真挚地回应、父亲因孩子的快乐而快乐等画面,在对语言进行分析时,学生能感知这位父亲一言一行中所浸透的爱,并真切地体会这位父亲的真心陪伴带给孩子的无以言表的幸福与快乐。教师对于第3句中的“I bet”要着力分析。可以发问:“Who’d like to use‘I bet’,children or adults?”并追问:“Why?”“Can we change‘I bet’into‘I think or guess’?”在学生思考并回答后,不难发现,这位父亲在与孩子交流时,放低自己的姿态,特意用孩子的语言,在平等交流的状态下拉近与儿子的距离。
