牛津高中英语模块一第三单元阅读部分的教学反思引言牛津高中英语模块一Unit3的话题是Looking good, feeling good。阅读部分的材料选自一对好朋友Amy和Zhou Ling的三封邮件。讲述Amy冒着生命危险减肥，在及时治疗后，终于明白beauty和health之间的正确关系。旨在通过此文章学习，让学生深刻领悟出健康的价值，以及社会上人与人之间的友谊和关爱的重要性。通过阅读讨论了解保持健康的各种方法，鼓励和帮助同学朋友合理饮食加以积极得参加体育锻炼，养成良好的生活习惯。学生经过一段时间的高中英语阅读技巧的训练，基本掌握了略读、跳读等一定的阅读技能，能够读懂并分析此文，但大部分学生运用英语进行交际活动的能力较差，因而要加强此方面的训练。高中生比较独立、思维比较活跃，也有着爱张扬个性的特点，部分学生的基础较好，能主动配合老师，愿意开口讲，但大部分学生显得更加矜持，不像小学生、初中生那么爱举手发言。因此，实施因材施教，运用贴近学生生活的题材，设置学生感兴趣的活动，就能让所有的学生投入到课堂学习中来。教学目标After learning this part, the students will be able to grasp the main topics of the three e-mailsAmys problems, how she dealt with them and Zhou Lings concerns and advice to Amy and the students interest will be stimulated in learning English by expressing their own opinions on the topic “To be beautiful or to be healthy”. Through some practice, the students will improve their reading abilities of skimming and scanning to a certain level.教学过程Step1 Lead-inShow the students some pictures and ask them to answer the following questions: Do they look good and feel good? Whom do you like better, the thin or the fat? Why?2. Then show them a picture about a fat man exercising to lose weight which may make the students laugh and ask them this question: Whats the man trying to do?设计意图：通过图片，激发学生的兴趣，引入“减肥”这一话题。Step 2 Pre-reading1.

(Who, what, how, why, the results)设计意图：结合图片，讨论时下热门的减肥方法，增加话题的趣味性，吸引学生的注意力；要求学生根据文章标题对即将学的内容进行预测，更加激发起他们的学习愿望，对培养他们的发散性思维也大有益处。Step 3Reading1.
