英語學習方法千千萬,
今天來看看法拉古特玩轉線上英語互動!

眾所周知,鍛煉英語能力的最佳方式就是“多讀多聽多說”,但正如“少吃多動”的道理一般,說起來簡單,做起來難。疫情持續,法拉古特的線上“云課堂”卻為學生們打造了一片“網絡新天地”:除了準時、準點、不拖沓的開展各學科網上教學外,今天要給小伙伴們介紹的是“法拉古特式線上英語角English Corner Online”。

01/ 為什么要來線上英語角?
疫情的爆發以來,法拉古特率先做出表率:有序的復課,積極的家校互動,得到了認可與支持。但我們也不得不承認,居家期間讓學生們面對面英語交流的機會變少,特別是剛入學的有些學生存在英語基礎薄弱現象,需要有更多時間與外教老師溝通。
為了通過線上學習將對雙語學習的影響降到最低,我們決定為學生們開啟好玩又好學的“法拉古特線上英語角 English Corner Online”。
02/放學別走,約個英語角可好?
為了讓孩子們心甘情愿的加入線上英語角學習,奉行“在快樂中學習”原則,我們率先問了問學生們對于英語角課程內容、時間的意見。

(大部分學生選擇的時間段)
根據學生意愿,我們將英語角學習活動時間定為每周3次,每次1個小時,分別于周一、周三、周五進行。
事實上,為了實現線上的良好互動,外教老師們甚至率先要克服時差帶來的困擾,在固定課時之外為學生們準備活動。在英語口語主題選擇方面,外教老師在課程之外展示了天馬行空的強大想象力。
英語角主題


即使是天馬行空,但距孩子們的生活并不遙遠:
· Video Games電子游戲, Movie Collection電影收藏,the beauty of poetry日本俳句 等主題是青春期孩子們的最愛;
舉栗:
The beauty of poetry 主題中,Emberley老師分享了Haiku–日本俳句的有關知識。

“Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry. Typically, haikus are written about nature, but they can be about any topic. Haikus have a very specific syllable structure. The first line of every haiku has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the last line has 5 syllables.”
·What do you do when you encounter something weird 等主題傳遞正確的世界觀價值觀;
舉栗:

“What would you you do ?”是一部即使在中國也很火的美國真人秀欄目,Chris老師選擇中的一篇作為英語角內容,引入“如果是你的話,你會怎么做”的話題。
“Chris teacher at first took us to watch a few videos, the content is probably some, such as a person did or want to do something, if you were one of them you would do it. Chris wants us to come forward if we encounter these things, to say what we want to say, to answer more and more…”
·What do you want to know my country–South Africa 等主題為暫時未能出戶的孩子們打開世界的另一道大門…

03/中教老師與你不見不散

每一場活動中教團隊在線云陪伴是不能少的。不僅做到線上大家長,還是同學們的“難題解鈴人”,督促學習進度是日常,解答問題是強項。不僅僅是這樣,他們還需要做到外籍教師與學生溝通的橋梁,并為我們帶來了課程的真實反饋。
04/ 我們的感動,學生們的收獲
盡管只是一場英語角活動,仍意外的看到學生們的參與度很高,整齊的筆記、給到中教老師們的真實反饋,都讓我們的心溫暖而強大。


(學生筆記摘選)
”I think the activity of English Corner has strengthened our speaking ability and made us gain stronger English ability. This event has shortened the distance between us and foreign teachers, and we have more opportunities to chat with foreign teachers. As a future college student, English listening and speaking skills are particularly important to us. Although we can use English to learn to answer questions, there are still some shortcomings. Participating in the English Corner activity can make us speak more fluently when we talk to people in English. I am very grateful to the school for hosting the English Corner and the teachers who participated in the English Corner for this opportunity, thanks!“
”English corner is an activity of training English to broaden horizons. It’s a great honor for me to be a little assistant of English corner. I’m glad to help the teacher sort out the materials. At the same time, I’ve also increased my knowledge and improved my English level. I like to participate in English corner very much. When discussing problems with the teacher in English corner, it’s like chatting with the teacher face to face It makes me feel relaxed and happy。There are many interesting topics in English corner, such as film, geographic information and so on. I learned a lot of knowledge and expression methods from their words that I have never heard before. At the same time, some of our little assistants worked together to sort out the translation learning plan, which also played a role in sending it to the students who came to English corner to exchange materials. This makes me very proud! I am more than happy to help with the English corner activities all the time! Thanks a lot.“
