设计理念:六大子策略的提炼依据
本节课围绕“写一篇关于伟大科学家的文章”这一写作任务,设计了六个循序渐进的子策略,旨在系统性地引导学生完成从输入到输出、从模仿到创造的全过程写作训练。具体设计理念如下:
1. 子策略1:回顾描述科学家的句子
通过回顾教材中描述科学家的典型句子,帮助学生积累语言素材,建立“内容图式”,为后续写作提供语言支持。
2. 子策略2:从伟大科学家身上学习优秀品质
引导学生思考科学家成功的内在品质,并学会用具体事例支撑观点,培养“内容构思”与“事例支撑”的能力。
设计理念:六大子策略的提炼依据
3. 子策略3:学习文章结构
通过分析范文,让学生掌握“引言—主体—结论”的基本文章结构,理解各部分的功能,建立“结构图式”。
4. 子策略4:学习表达与句型
提供常用句型和表达方式,帮助学生突破语言表达的障碍,提升写作的流畅性与准确性。
5. 子策略5:独立写作
在语言与结构准备充分的基础上,鼓励学生自主完成写作任务,实现知识的内化与输出。
6. 子策略6:修改与评价文章
通过自评与互评,引导学生关注文章的结构、内容与语言,培养批判性思维与合作学习能力。
设计理念总结:六个子策略体现了“输入—内化—输出—反思”的写作教学过程,注重语言、内容与结构的协同发展,兼顾写作能力与思维品质的培养。
本课例的创新之处
1.策略化写作路径
将写作过程分解为可操作的六大策略,帮助学生逐步搭建写作支架。

I am going to introduce one of my favorite scientists to you.Yuan Longping, known as the “father of hybrid rice”, is one of the most famous and influential scientists in agriculture.
Born on September 7th,1930 in Beijing,Yuan Longping studied hard since childhood, showing great interest in agriculture. After graduating from Southwest Agricultural College in 1953, he began a lifelong journey in rice research. In order to save people from starvation, he devoted all his life to his work. He often spent long days in the rice fields carfully studying each plant under strong sunlight. What’s more, his innovative spirit led him to break through traditional thinking and finally develop various kinds of hybrid rice, which greatly increased rice output. Yuan’s innovation has helped feed not only the Chinese people, but also the people of many other countries.
