【啟發(fā)想象 】能否將剛才講的內(nèi)容用一個游泳動作形容一下?這好像蛙泳動作。我們大家一起做:熔巖冒出(雙手合十向上)→推向兩邊(雙手向兩側(cè)分開)→遇陸俯沖(雙手往下)→重熔再生(雙手相向合并向上)。【小結(jié)板書】二、海底擴張學說前面我們學習了兩個假說,整理一下已知條件:事實證明大陸是在漂移的,如歐洲與美洲的距離在擴張,但是漂移的動力不足;海底是不斷擴張的,有生長與消亡。能否在前人研究的基礎上,提出更準確更合理的假設呢?一個新的理論誕生了,它是目前最盛行、最活躍的全球構(gòu)造理論【板書】三、板塊構(gòu)造學說1.板塊概念學生讀書?!締l(fā)提問】板塊“漂移”與大陸“漂移”的位置有何不同?學生回答。板塊漂移是指巖石圈漂在軟流層上,大陸漂移發(fā)生在地殼兩層之間?!咎釂枴堪鍓K是如何劃分的?讀圖用半分鐘記下六大板塊的位置和名稱(提示:按大洲和大洋名稱記憶)。
2、通過“送圖形寶寶回家”的游戲,根據(jù)圖形的三個特征進行分類?! ?3、積極參與數(shù)學游戲,體驗數(shù)學游戲的樂趣?!? 活動準備: 1、教具:大骰子三個,貼好標記。 2、學具: (1)各種圖形若干?! ?(2)貼有標記的小骰子人手三個,各種圖形每組一份,人手一只小籮筐。 (3)貼有三個標記的大籮筐若干,連成一列火車?! 』顒舆^程: 一、來了一群圖形寶寶,看有哪些圖形寶寶?復習學過的圖形?! ?教師在黑板上出示各種圖形,請幼兒集體或個別回答,說出圖形的名稱和特征?! ?如:紅顏色的三角形;黃色的正方形等等。要求幼兒能說出圖形的特征?! 《?、幫圖形寶寶找朋友。按三個特特征選擇圖形。 師:圖形寶寶要去旅游,想請我們幫她們找朋友。怎么找呢?老師給小朋友準備了三個骰子,我們可以請骰子來幫忙。
2、鼓勵幼兒用自己的方式簡單清楚地記錄,發(fā)展幼兒的觀察能力。3、引導幼兒清楚地表述自己的記錄結(jié)果。重點:繼續(xù)鼓勵幼兒用自己的方式記錄,簡單清楚。難點:在老師的引導下清楚地表述自己的記錄結(jié)果 設計思路:《幼兒園教育綱要》中指出,教育內(nèi)容應“貼近幼兒的生活來選擇幼兒感興趣的事物和問題,有助于拓展幼兒的經(jīng)驗和視野”。前一段時間,一直是陰雨綿綿的天氣,我班的孩子都帶來了傘,并且議論著傘。我們知道,傘與我們的生活有著密切的關系,它的來歷,發(fā)展過程、功能等都具有一定的探索價值和教育價值。因此我們根據(jù)綱要精神,及時利用這一資源,開展了主題“傘的秘密”的探索活動。果然,活動很快激發(fā)了孩子強烈的探索欲望。隨后,他們的興趣點集中在傘的特征上,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了傘的許多不同,如:顏色、形狀、圖案、大小不同,傘的布料也不同等等。我想,在了解幼兒當前的興趣、經(jīng)驗、需要以及現(xiàn)階段非正式活動進行的分類內(nèi)容,可以結(jié)合主題活動整合一些數(shù)方面的內(nèi)容,因此我設計了本次正式活動——分花傘,幫助幼兒提升歸納分類的經(jīng)驗,發(fā)展幼兒的思維抽象能力。通過兩次非正式活動和一次正式活動,幼兒已經(jīng)初步能用自己的方式記錄(盡量簡單,讓自己和別人都看得清楚),在本次活動中將繼續(xù)提高使用表征符號的能力;另外,幼兒具有了一些分類的經(jīng)驗,在多重分類的基礎上,開始向按物體的某一明顯特征作肯定與否定的分類過渡。
B重點與難點重點:伽利略對物理學發(fā)展的重大貢獻;經(jīng)典力學的建立;相對論的提出;量子論的誕生。難點:物理學各階段發(fā)展的原因;對科學發(fā)展創(chuàng)新性的理解。D教學過程【導入新課】1632年,伽利略撰寫的《關于托勒密和哥白尼兩大世界體系的對話》科學巨著出版后,立刻引起教會的恐慌,把伽利略投入監(jiān)獄。教皇烏爾班八世的御用工具——宗教裁判所在1633年6月21日宣布對伽利略的判決:“我們判決你在宗教法庭監(jiān)獄內(nèi)服刑,刑期由我們掌握,為了有益于補贖,命令你在今后3年內(nèi),每周背誦7篇贖罪詩篇……”這一紙胡言,竟使伽利略蒙冤300多年,致死都沒有撤銷判決,甚至死后還被禁止舉行殯禮,不準葬入圣太克羅斯墓地。那么,是什么原因?qū)е伦诮滩门兴鶎だ宰髁巳绱伺袥Q?我們應如何看待伽利略在科學領域的貢獻?
一、教學理論依據(jù)及設計理念以新課程理念和新課標為指針,依據(jù)建構(gòu)主義理論、學科探究理論和多元智力理論,采用探究式的教學模式來組織實施本節(jié)課的教學。學生成為課堂的主體和知識的主動構(gòu)建者。通過創(chuàng)設多種情境,讓學生積極參與、體驗、感悟,主動獲得新知,并逐步提高學生發(fā)現(xiàn)問題、分析問題和解決問題的能力。教師從課堂的主宰變?yōu)檎n堂的主導,是學生學習活動的組織者、引導者和合作者。教學過程是一個發(fā)散式的學生自主學習的過程。采用自主、合作、探究式的教學方式,讓學生有多元選擇,激發(fā)他們的潛能,發(fā)展他們的個性。二、教材分析1.教材的地位與作用:本框題是《生活與哲學》第二單元《探索世界與追求真理》第六課“求索真理的歷程”的第二節(jié)內(nèi)容。本單元的核心問題是如何看待我們周圍的世界,該問題也是《生活與哲學》整本書的核心問題之一。
1.導入新課:用觸目精心的一首MTV《EARTHSONG》導入新課,引出人類已經(jīng)面臨嚴峻的人口、資源與環(huán)境的危機。而中國是世界上人口最龐大的國家,人口、資源與環(huán)境問題更加嚴重。既然我們知道了可持續(xù)發(fā)展的概況,了解了它的發(fā)展過程,從上節(jié)課內(nèi)容的分析中,也理解了作為人類的發(fā)展,可持續(xù)是唯一的選擇,也是我們所追求的目標,那么,具體到我們國家、我們周圍的生產(chǎn)、生活情況又該如何呢?2.新課講授:首先,通過三則補充材料的案例和課本上的內(nèi)容分別說明龐大的人口壓力,資源短缺和不合理利用,深刻的環(huán)境危機方面的問題,得出走可持續(xù)發(fā)展之路是我國的必然的唯一的選擇。接著通過《中國21世紀議程》——中國21世紀人口環(huán)境與發(fā)展的白皮書的過渡引出實施可持續(xù)發(fā)展的途徑。在這部分內(nèi)容的講解上,主要通過其中一種主要途徑-循環(huán)經(jīng)濟的講解,特別是對清潔生產(chǎn)和生態(tài)農(nóng)業(yè)的具體分析,總結(jié)出中國走可持續(xù)發(fā)展之路事在必行,行必有果。再通過完成課本上最后一個活動題對本節(jié)內(nèi)容進行深化。
本板塊的活動主題是“談論節(jié)日活動”(Talk about festival activities),主要是從貼近學生日常生活的角度來切入“節(jié)日”主題。學生會聽到發(fā)生在三個國家不同節(jié)日場景下的簡短對話,對話中的人們正在參與或?qū)⒁H歷不同的慶祝活動。隨著全球化的進程加速,國際交流日益頻繁,無論是國人走出國門還是外國友人訪問中國,都已成為司空見慣的事情。因此,該板塊所選取的三個典型節(jié)日場景都是屬于跨文化交際語境,不僅每組對話中的人物來自不同的文化背景,對話者的身份和關系也不盡相同。1.

If a traffic accident happens and someone is injured, the following steps can be used to treat the injured.In the first place, we should make sure that the accident scene is safe so that we won’t get hurt. We should ask the injured person if he is OK, and see if he is breathing. What’s more, we should check for cuts and wounds. If he is bleeding badly, it is vital that we should try to stop the bleeding by applying pressure to the injury. This is because if a person loses too much blood, he may die. If necessary, take the injured person to the hospital as soon as possible.Do remember: when giving first aid, please be sure to place the person in a recovery position.
