英语书信类写作之建议信

一、教学内容分析

近年来，高考英语全国卷作文均以书信类形式命题，其中包括邀请信、申请信、道歉信、求助信、建议信等。建议信是向收信人就某事提出自己的建议或忠告，以便让对方接受自己的想法、主张并解决有关问题的应用文。建议信可以写给个人，就其遇到的某个问题提出看法；也可以写给某个组织或者机构，就改进其服务等方面提出建议或忠告。建议信要给出写信的原因，建议的内容，提出建议的理由，而且提出的理由要合情合理，同时语气一定要得体，即既要委婉礼貌，又要有说服力。本节课的内容是建议信的巩固和强化，要求学生对建议信的常用句式以及常用词汇熟记于心，并且在书写建议信的过程中有自己的思想和见解。

二、教学目标

1、知识与技能方面：学生掌握建议性书信写作中惯用的一些词组和句型，如I am writing to advise you to...，Here I'd like to give my advice on...等。

2、过程与方法方面：学生掌握写建议性书信的构思过程及组织结构，如第一段提出自己的观点，第二段阐述相关的内容，第三段提出自己的建议。同时要想好自己的支撑论据，做到用事实说话，增强说服力。

3、情感与价值观方面：学生学会小组合作，学会知识分享，学会爱问，爱思考的好习惯。

三、学习者特征分析

学生虽然是高二学生，但是英语写作还存在诸多大大小小的问题。书信类作文的格式有些同学掌握的不够扎实，所以结构会出现不完整的情况。个别同学写作时不会使用高级词汇和句型，导致作文内容平淡无奇。部分同学写作抓不到主旨，论述过程中逻辑性不强，因此结构不清晰，内容不切题。最糟糕的是，有些基础差的学生连基本句型都没掌握，写作内容都是中文直译，导致文章不流畅，

表达不地道。而且平时学生的学习主动性不是很强，对待自己作文中存在的问题不会主动请教老师加以改进和提高。

四、教学策略选择与设计

本课题主要针对高二学生，是一堂轻松有趣的作文指导，讲解课。课程过程以学生活动，展示和教师补充、讲解相结合。

九、教学反思

可以从如下角度进行反思：

本节课针对高二年级的学生，讲解了建议信的写作方法和技巧。本节课学生积极参与，教师对学生的课堂表现很满意。学生不仅在小组活动中热烈谈论，认真总结反思，而且写作的内容详细到位。教师就学生的表现进行一定的补充、讲解，因此课堂进行得很顺利，大大提高了教学效率。而且通过有效模仿练习，学

生对书信类写作有了新的认识跟理解，不再如此束手无策，而是有目的有方法的会构思内容，会动笔写作了。但是，学生在英语写作上存在最大的障碍就是单词拼写还是不够扎实，高级词汇和句型积累的不够多，作文写作亮点少。因此在今后的教学中，尤其是词汇教学中，还是要再详尽一些，让学生掌握知识点的时候再扎实些。
