摘要:
该高中英语课件围绕“旅行日记”体裁展开,核心知识点为旅行日记的特征与写作。导入通过对比“Vancouver旅程”与“Toronto-Montreal旅程”标题,以问题引导学生梳理旅程脉络,搭建“文本结构分析(分段匹配大意)—细节阅读(地点、活动、感受梳理)—特征归纳”的学习支架,帮助学生逐步掌握文本理解与写作要素。
其亮点在于融合语言能力与思维品质培养,通过“读—析—写”一体化设计:先引导学生分析旅行日记的内容要素(人物、时间、地点等)、时间顺序及描述性语言(如“misty clouds rising from Niagara Falls”“red maple leaves”),再结合邮件写作框架、评价标准(内容完整性、结构逻辑性等)和分层作业,提升学生语言表达与自主学习能力。学生在实践中掌握写作技能,教师可借助清晰支架与评价体系提高教学效率。

The bushes and maple trees outside their windows were red, gold, and orange, and there was frost on the ground...

Hi Mom and Dad,
How is everything going? Knowing that you are interested in my travel experience in Canada. Now I’d like to share it with you.
First, we arrived in Toronto and spent a few hours touring it. We went up the CN Tower and looked across Lake Ontario’s shores. The lake’s water flows into the Niagara River and over the falls on its way to the sea. Later, we met my mom’s old schoolmate Lin Fei in Toronto’s Chinatown—she took us to a restaurant, and we chatted about her life here. When the train arrived in Montreal the next morning, we were surprised that everyone spoke. Finally, we caught the train to Halifax.
This trip has been so much more exciting than I imagined and I’ll bring you lots of stories when I get back.
Love,
Li Daiyu
