部编版语文七年级上册《穿井得一人》说课稿
一、说教材《穿井得一人》是初中语文部编教材七年级上册第六单元的讲读课文《寓言四则》中的一则.第六单元是一个以想象为主题的单元，包含了童话、诗歌、神话和寓言，引人遐想，能引导我们换一种眼光看世界。新课标要求学生能主动进行探究学习，激发想象力和创造潜能，在实践中学习和运用语文。第六单元正是为了体现这一要求。语文课标还要求:应使学生初步学会运用祖国语言文字进行交流沟通，吸收古今中外优秀文化，提高思想文化修养，促进自身精神成长。《穿井得一人》体现了古今中外中的“中”和“古”。六单元四种体裁，这一课是寓言，短小精辟，趣味横生，能很好地激发学生的阅读兴趣。 《穿井得一人》是文言文，所以需要疏通文意。因为它短小而且浅显，课下注释比较详细，所以学生是可以通过看课后注释疏通文意的，这一点需要做，但可以不用花太多时间。本课还可以较好地激发学生的写作兴趣，改变学生害怕写作的现状。
部编版语文七年级上册《再塑生命的人》说课稿
一、说教材的地位和作用《再塑生命的人》是人教版七年级上册语文教材第三单元第二课，教学目的在于让学生体悟到不同时代、不同国度的孩子们的学习生活，给学生以学习和生活的启迪。 本文节选自美国女作家海伦.凯勒的自传《假如给我三天光明》，选段透过“我”的眼睛，通过细致入微的心理描写，叙述了一个盲聋哑儿童在家庭教师安妮.莎莉文老师的帮助下，重新认识周围的事物，走进大自然，体验人间真情，从黑暗、迷茫走入爱的光明之中，重拾对生活的勇气和信心的故事。本文人文内涵丰富，能更好地引导学生对人生、生命有所感悟，在情感、价值观上引导学生理性地思考爱、理解爱。二、说教学目标及重点、难点的设定根据新课标提出的“欣赏文学作品时，能有自己的情感体验，初步领悟到作品的内涵，从中获得对自然、社会、人生的有益启示。对作品中的感人形象、情境，能说出自己的体验。”为此，我的教学目标设计如下：
部编版语文七年级上册《女娲造人》说课稿
一、说教材1. 教材的地位与作用《女娲造人》选自义务教育课程标准实验教科书《语文》七年级上册第六单元。本单元的课文，都是想像极为丰富的作品。《女娲造人》是一则神话，通过本课的学习，使学生了解神话的特点，了解原始先民关于人类起源的极富想像力的解释，培养学生丰富的想像力，引导学生理解女娲身上所寄托的人类母亲的优秀品质，感受人类诞生后的欢欣与愉快。2. 教学目标新课程理念下的语文教学应当是以学生发展为本，培养能力为重，同时关注学生的情感、态度和价值观，所以根据本课内容确定以下三个方面的目标。①知识目标：掌握神话的特点，体会想像在神话创作中的作用，了解原始先民关于自身起源的极富想像力的解释，激发学生探求未知领域的欲望――追寻人类起源。
部编版语文七年级上册《杞人忧天》说课稿
二：说教学目标由于这则寓言故事出自于三千年前的古代典籍《列子》，对初一的学生来说是有一定难度的，所以对于字词字音以及文章意思的翻译还是很有必要的，为初一的学生今后学习文言文积累字词以及学习的方法。疏通字词也能更好的理解文章内容便于分析人物形象，也为揭示文章的寓意起到关键的引导作用。再通过人物形象的分析结合故事背景引导学生多角度解读寓言的寓意，指出其现实意义以激发学生学习传统文化的兴趣。三:说教学重难点所以我的教学重难点第一是在疏通文意，第二就是在学生能通过引导多角度分析文章寓意并能很好的理解其现实意义，以培养学生多元化思考问题的能力以及对传统文化的热爱。四：说教学方法:考虑到我校初一的学生大多活泼开朗，好奇心强，所以在教学过程中以让那个学生合作探究自读自悟为基础，教师可以大胆放手让那个学生结合导学案以及课下注释探究感悟文章的意思，调动学生的积极性也培养学生自我学习的能力，并把诵读作为教学的重要手段，“书读百遍其义自见”不同形式的朗读能更好的促进学生的学习和感悟。
部编版语文七年级上册《植树的牧羊人》说课稿
各位老师：大家好！今天我说课的课题是七年级上册第四单元的《植树的牧羊人》，我将从教材地位，学情分析，教学方法，教学目标，教学过程五方面进行阐述。一、说教材本单元课文体裁丰富，形式多样。从不同方面诠释了人生的意义和价值，处处彰显着理想的光辉和人格的力量。本文讲述了一个牧羊人在荒漠中默默无闻种树的故事，用自己的双手和坚韧的毅力将荒芜之地变成了人们可以安居乐业的田园。赞美他慷慨无私、不图回报的精神品质和勤劳执着、积极乐观的生活态度。二、学情分析七年级的学生正是人生观价值观的形成时期，本课的出现，可以让学生受到一次精神的洗礼，给学生一次特殊的情感体验。七年级的学生也具备了一定的阅读能力和理解能力，理解作者情感难度不大，但在如何运用正确的写作方法以及在生活中如何做到牧羊人那样还需要教师加以引导，希望借这篇美好的文章唤醒孩子们的爱心，做一个对社会有用的人。

By talking with a foreigner, the speakers introduce the historic attractions and their cultures. Part A is that William, a British student, who was going to visit the Confucius Temple and a Chinese student, Xiao Kong, who was going to the Confucius Temple to meet with the members of the research group, went together and exchanged their views on the Confucius Temple, Confucius, Confucius' descendants and Confucius' educational thoughts.
