我开设的新概念英语系列课程,各班级都有一项非常特别的学习任务,就是“完美朗读打卡”。
这个完美,主要是指两方面:
一、不能读错单词,一个都不可以;
二、不能回头修改,一次也不可以。
这实际上就是播音主持的标准。
之所以要设立这两个标准,原因很简单:背诵比较痛苦,容易引发小朋友的抵触情绪;朗读如果没要求,那就等于白读。因此,用相对比较容易把握的朗读形式,上点强度、加点难度,让小朋友伸手够得着、不伸手就够不着。
我在《我不提倡背诵,我更赞成朗读:怎样的朗读更有效率?怎样的背诵无痛有效?朗读有没有什么危害?- 白话英语202019》这篇文章里讲过朗读的效用,“完美朗读打卡”活动,可以说就是我这一理念的实践。
几个月实践下来,我们的完美朗读打卡很有用。有图为证:
厉害的是,现在的完美朗读打卡还有了朗读测评打分的功能。这个功能虽然不能说是完美,但作为一个基本的参考,还是绰绰有余的。
于是,现在,我每天都到各班级群公布前一天完美朗读打卡的得分情况。
小朋友们,尤其是新一和新二起始班级的同学们,对此非常在意,他们有的同学甚至“朗读了28遍,嗓子要废掉了”
Four girls went to school every day by taxi.
One day one of the girls said, "There's a test this morning. Let's get to school late. Then we won't have to take the test."
"What can we tell the teacher?" one of the girls said. "He'll be angry. We'll need a good excuse."
The girls thought for several moments, then one of them said, "Let's tell him that our taxi had a flat tire."
"That's a good idea," the other girls said. "We'll tell him that." They arrived at school an hour later. The test was finished.
"Why are you late?" the teacher asked. "You missed the test."
"Our taxi had a flat tire," one of the girls said.
The teacher thought for a moment, then he said, "Sit down, one of you in each corner of the room."
The four girls did this.
Then the teacher said, "Write on a piece of paper the answer to this question: Which tire was flat?"
