Question: Why is Cricket’s House a great project?

Reflection:

"Cricket's House" is an observation note written by Fabre. When we sink into the text and study it carefully, we will find that this text is not written in the order of Cricket building a house: first choose the site, then build, and then write about the completed appearance; rather, it is written according to Fabre's observation order. , first discover the house, then observe its features, and then want to understand its construction process. Moreover, Fabre expressed his appreciation and admiration for the cricket's efforts to transform his life in the face of the harsh natural environment in interesting language. Mr. Ye once said, "The author has a way of thinking, and he will know the truth by following the way." "Read the entire article to understand the author's train of thought." Grasping the train of thought of the article opens the door to the mystery of the work.

Based on this interpretation and the characteristics of the text, we have made some attempts to simplify teaching. Time is limited. Let me briefly mention three points.

1. We grasped the title of "residence", followed the author's ideas, and led the students to appreciate the residence, gain further understanding of the residence and make new discoveries, and constantly communicate with the text During the conversation, I naturally felt that this was a great project, and the sublimation of emotions came naturally. Rather than giving students a conclusion about a "great project", students are required to demonstrate this conclusion. This greatly respects the subject of students and truly allows students to explore independently.

2. Highlight the key points and pay attention to the internal connections of the article. In terms of text, it mainly talks about two aspects: residential characteristics and construction. When the students shared their findings and insights, based on the fact that students were generally interested in the characteristics of housing, I "teached based on what I learned and followed what I learned" and made bold choices in the content of the text, focusing on the characteristics of housing and summarizing the learning. construction process. When studying the characteristics of the house, the students found that Cricket's house has the characteristics of facing the sun, leaning and drying quickly. I guided the students to connect the context, discover the connections between paragraphs, and understand the comfortable house of Little Cricket and his discomfort. A willingness to adapt to circumstances and careful location selection are inseparable. Today's teaching practice shows that this kind of "not giving up, hanging up and down links" highlights the key points, reveals the internal connections of the article, improves the efficiency of classroom teaching, and adapts to the needs of children.

3. Use a variety of methods to guide students to actively participate in the process of Chinese learning. Reading is the most basic method of teaching reading. I attach great importance to reading in this class. In addition, I also used a variety of methods. For example, in contextual reading and comparative reading, grasp the key words of "excellent drainage and mild sunshine"; in reading, thinking combined with the "half-covered" wisdom of Zhongpin grass; in reading and writing migration, between "nest", "residence" and "home" of Zhongpin The different meanings and the different emotions behind the words. After savoring the charm of language, the students "experienced writing". In my eyes, this place is like a cricket... The children's witty remarks surprised me. In this way, students can appreciate the exquisiteness of language in "every word is precious" and feel the admiration of this amazing little life and the author and us. There are also teachers who create situations and ask students to "obey and imagine" what will the crickets sing? The children's imagination was running wild, and a little cricket who knew how to work and live was deeply imprinted in their hearts. There are also timely captures of good learning methods and habits during class. Such as questioning, annotating, reading, listening and thinking. and the final "reciting a passage from the Insects". After class, learn how to express yourself in the text and write about your favorite animals. These are all trying to find ways to guide students to actively participate in the process of Chinese learning. It is precisely because students have the awareness to actively participate that the classroom appears harmonious and full of vitality.
