   教学反思：Chinese festivals是译林版英语五年级第七单元的教学内容。本单元第一课时story time较难，内容较多，我在设计上充分尊重了学生的主体性，倡导体验、实践、参与、合作与交流的学习方式和任务型的教学途径，在教学过程中通过一些设计将课堂与生活相互结合。我把四段文本转变成了四个对话。学生对对话更感兴趣，并且也没有太多的抵触感。在教学的过程中，这些中国传统节日的朗读和拼写还是存在一定的问题的。如Dragon Boat Festival和Double Ninth Festival等，学生在朗读和拼写上存在一定难度，需要多注意。同时，本课时的教学内容中，一些名词的复数也是要特别注意的。如get together with their families，have dragon boat races, in some places, eat rice dumplings, eat moon cakes, climb mountains等，学生总是忘记加s。还有一个大小写也是需要强调的，特别是Chinese festivals这个短语中，学生总是把Festival的f也大写了，需要强调。在合作过程中，老师也主动参与其中。例如在找listen and match部分，我配合学生共同完成任务，成为他们中的一员，这样拉近了老师与学生的距离，觉得自己受老师关注的。在这节课上，还有几个值得我改善的地方：整个课堂的教的内容较多，板书的设计不够合理，内容太多，影响了学生的课堂效果。其次，本课内容没有合理进行取舍，没有将本节课的重点展示出来，所以学生在回答问题方面，有点无所适从，一些重点单词发音还不够清楚，在教学中以后要采取分音节读，不会读的部分要重点练习。学生对文本的熟悉程度不够，所以课堂效果不佳。在以后课堂的把握上更需要对于教案教材的熟悉以及大量的课前准备工作，多向其他教师请教，交流。
