5. Teaching process

(1) Introduction:

Today we are studying a text about dinosaurs, and we are writing the word "fear" together. ? Fear Bottom? indicates that this word is often related to mood. Random board writing: Dinosaurs.

Do you know anything about dinosaurs? Can anyone give a brief introduction? (2-3 people)

The teacher also collected some pictures of dinosaurs (2 types). Do you want to see them? Do you know them? ?Call out its name (Tyrannosaurus rex, Mamenchisaurus).

After seeing the picture, what impression does the dinosaur leave on your mind? No wonder British paleontologist Richard Owen originally called it a "terrifying lizard?!"

When you see the words "Fly to the blue sky", what do you think of? (Show two pictures of birds) Yes, birds are the pride of heaven that are light and free in our hearts.

The title of this text is "Dinosaurs Flying into the Blue Sky" (Add the word "?") When you first saw the topic, what questions did you have? Written on the blackboard: question mark

It seems that everyone has the same question. Let us solve this question mark together today. Read the topic together.

(2) Check self-study and learn words

This is a popular science article. There are some words and sentences that are difficult to read. Let’s read two groups of words first.

1. Show the words:

Heavy and slow, hairy and blood-drinking, a huge family with different shapes, ferocious and abnormal

Light and agile, colorful body, light and soaring in the sky, the proud son of heaven

p>

Please read it freely. (Correct pronunciation ǔ)

Ask two students to read these two groups of words respectively. Let's read it together.

When you read the first set of words, what picture appeared in your mind? What about the second set of words?

2. Such two unrelated groups Words, two unrelated pictures, but they have a deep affinity!

3. In addition to uncommon words, there are also difficult-to-read sentences in the text. The teacher found two long sentences. sentence. Who knows how to read? Try it yourself. Read by name. Tip: Pay attention to the pauses in the sentences. Read together.

(Show sentence: The two seem to have nothing to do with each other, but a large number of fossils discovered in recent years show that during the Mesozoic Era, a branch of dinosaurs finally turned into soaring birds after a long evolution.

The discovery in western Liaoning showed the world evidence that dinosaurs had feathers, adding a finishing touch to the picture painted by paleontologists)

(3) Study article:

1. Now that I can read words and sentences accurately, I can now solve the questions you just raised. (Show: ?How did dinosaurs fly into the blue sky?) Please read the text carefully. Which natural paragraph can answer this question? (The fourth natural paragraph)

2. Let us put it together Focus on the fourth natural paragraph. Read the text silently, and use ?/? to divide the points. What stages did the dinosaurs go through when they flew into the blue sky? (Teacher inspection, guidance)

Who can tell me? How did the dinosaurs fly into the blue sky? Camera board: the first dinosaurs, a huge family, some predatory dinosaurs.

Please look at the blackboard: The descendants of the first dinosaur on earth have spawned a huge family. In this huge family, some predatory dinosaurs have finally taken to the sky after a long evolution.

(The teacher is talking about changing the drawing of arrows)

3. Next, let’s first get to know the first dinosaur on the earth. Who will read the first sentence?

Can you imagine? Have you seen what the first dinosaur looked like? Can you tell us what it might have looked like?

How strange! We have never seen dinosaurs 230 million years ago. How can you imagine it so clearly? Come out?

Yes, we have all seen dogs and ostriches. Using things we are all familiar with to describe dinosaurs we have never seen can make it easy for us to imagine what it looked like. .

This method of explanation is called "analogy explanation" (writing on the blackboard: analogy)

Students, in our impression, dinosaurs are huge monsters, but you see, on the earth The first dinosaur was the same size as a dog, how interesting it is! Please read this sentence again to experience it!

4. How does the author introduce us to the huge family of dinosaurs? Please Everyone, read the second sentence for yourself. As you read, mark with serial numbers how many types of dinosaurs there are? Name them. (Six categories, let’s talk about each). Six, some of them, describe the different shapes of the huge family of dinosaurs.

Compare the sentences in the text and read the sentences provided by the teacher (show the sentences, and the semicolons in the sentences are deliberately changed to commas). Do you find anything? (If you don’t find any, the teacher reminds: Students, punctuation marks You can’t let it go either)

Why are there semicolons between each two categories? (The sentence changes color) Let’s read the first clause first and what to write? This is all about their walking style. . What about the second clause? What about the third clause?

Originally there were six categories, but now according to the unique characteristics of dinosaurs, this huge family is divided into three major categories. This explanation The method is called "Classification Description". (Blackboard writing: classification) Six parts and three clauses clearly show the huge family of dinosaurs!

And students who study seriously will make new discoveries! Read the sentences again by yourself , each clause has similarities but also differences! Did you find it? The two sentences in each semicolon describe relative forms. This method of explanation is called "contrast explanation". (Write on the blackboard: comparison)

Can you show the huge family of dinosaurs through reading aloud? (Show the correct sentences)

If you can’t read it, guide you to read aloud: What do you think of the dinosaur family? Is it huge enough? Yes, (Fan reads some? Some?) Imagine that they have different shapes, and you will be able to read it well!

Let’s read it together. The teacher will read the previous part and the following part. , boys read blue, girls read red. We must understand the different shapes of this huge family.
