第四篇：九年級詞匯復習課說課稿

九年級詞匯復習課說課稿

這是一節詞匯方面的復習課，詞匯的復習有時比較單調，因此容易枯燥，缺乏整和。居于英語教學中，字不離詞，詞不離句，句不離篇的原則，同時又根據中考導向及中考題型，因此我設計了這樣一節詞匯復習課，即專向歸類與中考題型鏈接。注重對學生進行思維訓練，引導學生去聯想，歸納，培養學生的發散思維。本著教學中決不能就題論題的考慮，同時對學生進行學法指導和解題技巧的指導。

一、教學過程

1、以詞組的導入為熱身環節，引起學生的學習興趣，采用個人說，集體說不同方式去活動，活躍課堂氣氛，調動學生的參與教學過程的積極性。鏈接完成句子練習進行學法指導，中英文對照，找出缺失的單詞或詞組，注意單詞或詞組的形式及時態的變化。

2、常用表達和句式的講解，我采用引導學生去歸納的方法，以師生互動、生生互動的形式引導學生去開展小組活動，自己總結歸納并進行造句練習，利用科學有效的評價去激勵學生參與課堂教學。然后鏈接完成句子練習進行解題技巧的指導，應清楚該題所考查的知識點，明白出題人的意圖，然后再去進一步思考知識點的細節問題。

3、話題作文這一環節，通過讓學生說相關詞組和句式對學生進行口語訓練和發散思

維的培養，用自己過生日時為媽媽買禮物這一話題，使學生的情感得以升華，教會學生懂得感恩。并做相關的寫作方面的學法指導。

二、對此節課進行小結。對知識點進行進一步的梳理。

三、反思：

1、教學步驟間的銜接需進一步考慮。

2、小組活動時任務的布置還不夠細，還不能足

體現出不同層次的學生的在小組活動中的價值及

收獲。
