5. 教学建议
教师讲解与turn有关的短语时,挑选的是歌手Justin Bieber为他的母亲所作的turn to you这首歌曲,描述了母亲的艰辛与不易,赞扬了母亲的伟大精神。
第一,通过播放微课视频,让同学们欣赏歌曲,深刻体会歌词和与之匹配的图片,领会歌曲的含义,感受母亲的艰辛与伟大,激发学生学习英语的兴趣,同时引入turn to sb.这一语法知识点。
第三,引申讲解与turn有关的其他短语。例如: turn off / on打开; turn over翻身,反复考虑,翻(书页),翻转; turn out证明为,结果。 turn down调低,拒绝; turn up向上翻,露面,出现,音量调大; turn against变得敌视,反对 ; turn away打发走,驱逐,转过脸去 ; turn back返回,转回去…
最后教导学生从小要孝敬父母,不要等到“树欲静而风不止,子欲养而亲不待”时,后悔莫及。从而达到教书育人的目的。
