first kind

First, the introduction of poetry

1. Play multimedia music "I Have a Dream" (lyrics written by the national wind) to create a rich lyrical atmosphere.

Lyrics of "I have a dream" (excerpt): I have a dream/a blooming flower of happiness/I believe that miracles are just around the corner/life is rich and long, and how many storms have been forgotten/dreams come true in your palm/I have a dream/the world is a harmonious village/everything grows in mutual care/angels wander around the world, and dreams are their wings/they can fly when they meet the light of love. ...

2. Teachers read "Spring, We Meet Dreams" with deep affection, which further stimulated students' emotions.

Recitation (excerpt): quietly, spring is coming. In spring, the snow and ice melt and the seeds germinate. In spring, we brew hope and weave dreams. Through the eyes of "Spring", we see the hope, planning and imagination of life. Turning to the ears of "spring", we hear the vitality, longing and dreams of youth. In spring, we meet with youth. In spring, we dream.

Second, sharing and communication.

1, arouse interest (the teacher speaks softly in a recalling tone, slowly evoking students' beautiful reverie);

Teacher's lead: Dream is the sweet smile of my mother and the warm embrace of my father when I was a child; Dream is a bright candy in childhood, an music box that sings touching songs and dances beautifully; Is the dream a red prize in the school when I was a teenager, an admiring look from the classmates around me, a compliment from the teacher, or a vast world, colorful and wonderful, endless mystery? Dear students, what is your dream? Perhaps, you have had countless dreams, perhaps you are embracing the most beautiful dream, then, can you say it? What is the most unforgettable dream?

2. Share: I have a dream

(1) Encourage students to express their real dreams boldly.

(2) In group communication, students can speak freely or in a certain order.

Third, impromptu speech

1, the teacher asked for an impromptu speech: students can make short impromptu speeches on the stage with "My Dream" as the theme. Requirements: (1) Make clear what "my dream" is; (2) Try to describe "my dream" concretely; (3) Other students should listen carefully and make appropriate comments after listening. The comments mainly focus on the following two points. First, whether the speech is centered on "My Dream" and clear-cut; Second, whether the speech is for students, whether the expression is smooth and emotional.

Students can speak freely on the stage.

Student 1: My dream is to be a traveler. On a sunny day, I packed my simple bags and embarked on a journey full of happiness. In the spring season, I went to ancient Egypt and felt the mysterious pyramids. On the bleak days of the autumn equinox, set foot on the hot land of Thailand and pay tribute to the beautiful Taj Mahal; The breeze blew, climbed Mount Fuji in Japan and enjoyed the snow-white cherry blossoms. When the sun sets all over the sky, go to the subtropical zone to enjoy the green scenery of the tropical rain forest; I also want to go to the South Pole to see the whiteness of ice and snow, to ride horses on the vast grassland, and to enjoy the passion of going upstream in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. Well, I want to travel around the world. I want to visit all the ancient and modern places of interest.

Student evaluation: Zhou's speech was great! His dream is also my dream, but I am ashamed. I didn't think so much, so detailed and so beautiful. I can't describe my dream as poetic and so desirable as he did.

Student 2: My dream is to be a planning designer. Last year, my cousin from Shenzhen came to see me at school, and I took him to visit our school. My cousin said that our school is too small, the design is not very good, and the sports area is too small, which makes me unhappy. Later, I accompanied my cousin around Heyuan City, and he commented while watching. One moment the road is too narrow, and the other moment there is too little greening. At the same time, he said that hospitals and schools are too public. Because I like our Heyuan very much, I think our Heyuan is well built. Later, I went to Shenzhen in the summer vacation and carefully observed the city. As my cousin said, planning is very particular, design has a lot of knowledge, the whole city is beautiful, the buildings are beautiful, and there are many green spaces. So, I secretly made up my mind at that time that I would study planning and design in college and return to my hometown after graduation to make my hometown more beautiful.

Classmate's comment: Teacher Wang not only talked about his dreams, but also talked about the generation of dreams in detail. He spoke very realistically.

Student 3: I like reading and buying books, but the bookstores in our county are too few and too small. There are few books in it, and many books we want to read are not available. Students, do you feel this way? My feeling is that I am too tired to buy books. So my dream is to open a very big bookstore when I grow up, which is bigger than Heyuan Guangming Science and Technology Bookstore. There are several layers, and each layer has different functions. For example, the first floor is the reading room, which is beautifully decorated, scholarly and comfortable. There are many magazines for everyone to read for free, especially some periodicals and magazines suitable for primary and secondary school students. You can sit down now. The second floor above is open, and the second floor is a children's bookstore, which mainly sells children's books; On the third floor is a literary bookstore, which mainly sells all kinds of literary books; There is a professional bookstore on the fourth floor, selling all kinds of professional books, such as medical books and law books. My bookstore has classic works at all times and all over the world, and there are all kinds of newly published books. I want to run the bookstore well, so that everyone likes visiting bookstores, reading books and buying books.

The classmate's speech drew applause from everyone. )

Classmate's evaluation: Li Tongxue's dream is very realistic. We are too backward here. The school library can't borrow books, bookstores can't buy books, and classmates have few books. What a pity!

Group 1: it is recommended to start with Zhang Wenzhang.

Students, you must be familiar with this story: 100 years ago, a poor shepherd came to a hillside with his children, and a group of geese flew overhead. The shepherd's youngest son asked his father, "Where is the wild goose going?" The shepherd said, "They will go to a warm place and settle down there to spend the cold winter." The eldest son blinked and said enviously, "If only we could fly like that!" " The shepherd was silent for a while and said to his two sons, "You can fly if you want." The two sons tried, but they didn't fly. They looked at their father suspiciously. The shepherd said firmly, "Only with the wings of dreams can you fly where you want to go." The two sons firmly remembered their father's words and kept working hard. Later, they did fly.

Classmate's comment: It's attractive to start with a story, but the story is a bit long.

The second group: recommend the beginning of Ye's article.

When I was a child, I didn't know the hardships of my parents, the excitement outside, and what my dreams were. I only know that I play in the mountains with my friends all day, and it is dark from morning till night. Until that day, I suddenly grew up-because on that day, a dream about walking out of the mountains quietly took root in my heart.

Group comment: Ye confessed at the beginning of his article that my dream is to walk out of the mountains. This dream is more particular: childhood ignorance is a foreshadowing, a foil, and a suspense setting: What happened that day, which made me suddenly grow up and sprouted my dream of walking out of the mountains? In this way, it aroused the curiosity of readers and listeners.

Teacher's comment: Three unknowns pave the way for the knowledge and dreams of that day.

Group 3: We recommend the beginning of Li Tongxue's article.

In the vast sea, sailing boats have dreams, directions and the courage to break the waves; In the long journey of life, life has dreams, pursuits, and confidence in not being afraid of difficulties and unremitting struggle; On the journey of studying, I have a dream, a belief and the strength to overcome difficulties and setbacks.

Group comment: Li Tongxue started with great momentum. He expounded the significance of sailing, life and my dream with parallelism: with dreams, there is direction, pursuit and belief, and there is courage, confidence and strength to pursue dreams.

The fourth group: recommend the beginning of Zeng's article.

I have a dream, an ordinary dream; I have a dream, which is the dream of countless students; I have a dream, which is the dream of countless poets. I have a dream, dear friend. Do you want to know what my dream is? Oh, come on, let me tell you gently. Please don't be surprised or laughed at. Please give me support and encouragement, ok? Students, let me tell you loudly that my dream is to teach in the most remote mountain village!

Group comment: Zeng's character was unique from the beginning. Her personality is shown in the following aspects: first, he described my dream in three juxtaposed sentences: ordinary, yearned for by countless students, and praised by countless poets; Secondly, the use of rhetorical questions arouses readers' curiosity.

Teacher's guidance: After sorting out the questions, I used oral English to strengthen communication with my classmates and narrow the distance with the audience.

Group 5: We recommend the beginning of each student's article.

Dream has a pair of wings, let me fly under the sky of literature; I long for a heart that can listen to my dreams in the breeze and drizzle.

Group comment: This opening is very poetic and attractive.

Teacher's comment: Two short sentences, though not strictly antithetical, are neat. More importantly, lyrical and elegant words not only write the dreams of young authors, but also arouse readers' reverie infinitely.
