教学反思：

本节课我通过设计丰富多样的实际操作活动让学生对字典的使用进行当堂训练。学生掌握并熟练运用各种方法快速查找字典中的生词，并且能够关注单词的发音，词性，词义和例句等重要信息。有效解决了学生在文本阅读中对于生词的困惑。另外，本节课的学习非常有益于学生自主学习能力的培养，即借助字典这个强大的学习工具，自己解决英语阅读中生词的能力。

为了激发全体学生的学习兴趣和参与积极性，我设计了两个竞赛环节。分别采取男女生PK和小组合作竞争的形式，极大地调动了学生参与的广泛性。通过课堂体验，让学生明白，Practice makes perfect的道理，寓教于乐。本节课我注重学生微技能的培养，希望借此机会

可以为学生的终身学习打下良好的基础。

本节课也存在一些不足，比如由于课堂时间的限制，以及学生自身的能力差异，有些环节部分学生还没有自己找出答案就已经过渡到下一个环节。他们的成功体悟不错，不利于他们自信心的培养。另外，对于字典的解读也是比较浅显的，没能深度挖掘它的功能与作用。
