第四篇：九年级词汇复习课说课稿

九年级词汇复习课说课稿

这是一节词汇方面的复习课，词汇的复习有时比较单调，因此容易枯燥，缺乏整和。居于英语教学中，字不离词，词不离句，句不离篇的原则，同时又根据中考导向及中考题型，因此我设计了这样一节词汇复习课，即专向归类与中考题型链接。注重对学生进行思维训练，引导学生去联想，归纳，培养学生的发散思维。本着教学中决不能就题论题的考虑，同时对学生进行学法指导和解题技巧的指导。

一、教学过程

1、以词组的导入为热身环节，引起学生的学习兴趣，采用个人说，集体说不同方式去活动，活跃课堂气氛，调动学生的参与教学过程的积极性。链接完成句子练习进行学法指导，中英文对照，找出缺失的单词或词组，注意单词或词组的形式及时态的变化。

2、常用表达和句式的讲解，我采用引导学生去归纳的方法，以师生互动、生生互动的形式引导学生去开展小组活动，自己总结归纳并进行造句练习，利用科学有效的评价去激励学生参与课堂教学。然后链接完成句子练习进行解题技巧的指导，应清楚该题所考查的知识点，明白出题人的意图，然后再去进一步思考知识点的细节问题。

3、话题作文这一环节，通过让学生说相关词组和句式对学生进行口语训练和发散思

维的培养，用自己过生日时为妈妈买礼物这一话题，使学生的情感得以升华，教会学生懂得感恩。并做相关的写作方面的学法指导。

二、对此节课进行小结。对知识点进行进一步的梳理。

三、反思：

1、教学步骤间的衔接需进一步考虑。

2、小组活动时任务的布置还不够细，还不能足

体现出不同层次的学生的在小组活动中的价值及

收获。
