Part 3 Learn words in clusters 教学反思

1.

通过Part 1 Revise words部分，既巩固了课文生词，又对课文内容进行了复习。

2.

在Part 2 Guess words部分，学生们能从整体上把握全文大意，深入文章细节，根据上下文猜测词义。本环节学生们讲解准确到位，并能用英语给英语单词下定义，同学之间合作默契。如若多设几个猜词练习让学生们根据上下文猜词会更好。

3.

在part 3 Learn words in clusters部分，以一个单词为中心，衍生出与之相关的合成词和派生词，本环节给予学生充分的联想空间，既巩固了生词，又复习了旧词，还通过小组交流认识更多的词，一举多得。此环节的处理可以尝试让学生归纳总结。
