It was bad enough the cows had found the old typewriter in the barn , now they wanted electric blankets !“No way ,”said Farmer Brown. “No electric blankets”
So the cows went on strike. They left a note on the barn door.
sorry.
We’re closed .
No milk today.
“No milk today !”cried Farmer Brown .In the background , he heard the cows busy at work:
Click , clack , moo.
Click , clack , moo.
Clickety , clack ,moo.
The next day , he got another note:
Dear Farmer Brown ,
The hens are cold too.
They ‘d like electric blankets.
Sincerely,
The cows
The cows were growing impatient with the farmer . They left a new note on the barn door.(closed . NO milk . No eggs.)
“No eggs !”cried Farmer Brown .
In the background he heard them.
Click , clack , moo.
Click , clack , moo.
Clickety , clack , moo.
“Cows that type . Hens on strike ! Whoever heard of such a thing? How can I run a farm with no milk and no eggs !”Farmer Brown was furious.
Farmer Brown got out his own typewriter .
Dear Cows and Hens:
There will be no electric blankets . You are cows and hens. I demand milk and eggs . Sincerely ,
Farmer Brown
Duck was a neutral party , so he brought the ultimatum to the cows.
The cows held an emergency meeting .All the animals gathered around the barn to snoop, but none of them could understand Moo.
All night long , Farmer Brown waited for an answer.
Duck knocked on the door early the next morning . He handed Farmer Brown a note:
Dear Farmer Brown,
We will exchange our typewriter for electric blankets.
Leave them outside the barn door and we will send Duck over with the typewriter . Sincerely ,
The cows.
Farmer Brown decided this was a good deal. He left the blankets next to the barn door and waiter for Duck to come with the typewriter.
In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.
One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and-pop!-out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.
He stared to look for some food .
On Monday he ate through one apple . But he was still hungry.
On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.
On Wednesday he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.
On Thursday he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.
On Friday he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.
On Saturday he ate through one piece of choclate cake, one ice-cream cone, one pickle, one slice of swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.
The next day was Sunday again. The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt muck better.
Now he wasn’t huntry any more-and he wasn’t a little caterpillar any more. He was a big , fat caterpillar.
He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out and ……
3),不确定孩子是否理解绘本的内容, 采取让孩子复述大意的比较好,开始的时候有困难,没有关系,可以采取大纲的形式:
Who-- who was in the story? 故事的主角
What-- What did he do in the story? 这个故事里面他做了什么?
要让孩子讲更多一点,可以从起因,经过,结尾这样:
How--- How did the story start? How did the story develop? How did the story end? Was it a happy ending? ---大人可能要帮小朋友排一排顺序,用一些时间顺序的词:start,then,later,at the end...Start from, then,
Where--Where did the story happen? 故事发生的地点?
When--when did the story happen? (season, month, time....)
类似于这样的一些问题,可能可以帮助孩子理清思路, 而不是采取翻译的形式。
1, 这组绘本里面,有个很有趣的玩意:note。 类似于书信体,但是没有那么正式,所以我们可以鼓励小朋友给爸爸妈妈,假象人物写note,比如小朋友想要什么,可以模仿这个note,给爸爸妈妈提申请, 爸爸妈妈可以适当地满足一下小朋友的愿望,这是鼓励他们动笔写,模仿写,我知道很多外国的小朋友都爱写便条,各种各样的便条既有趣又能表达自己的情感,所以,除了模仿书中的cow来提条件,也可以给爸爸妈妈写个,Dear Daddy & Mommy, I love you, Sincerely your sweetheart。or,Dear Parents, I do need a little bit time alone. Love you, though, XXXX爸爸妈妈也可以给孩子们留言,方便的话家里建个留言板,温馨,好玩,有趣。
是啊,准确是最起码的要求。
因为不想打击孩子念的兴趣,并不是每次犯错都纠正;另外,也不是每句话都用中文讲解,所以孩子到底听懂了多少,我也不是特别知道。
每个单词每个单词的纠正是不是好方法?这可能短期内让某一个文章的朗读很成功,但孩子对句子的整体语感可能被破坏了,对英语的兴趣也可能受影响。这真是有点两难又不得不平衡的一个议题。
小孩子常犯的错误
1)词尾吞音,比如复数的"s",过去时的"ed",单数第三人称的"s"或"es"。
2)生僻的单词,含含混混试图蒙混过关
3)句中的单词直接跳过不念(看得快读得慢?)
4)发音不准确
