“音素意识”课程过于庞大,搬运工也犯难了! - 白话英语0157

 昵称70926123 2020-07-21

在《自然拼读“音位意识”和“音素意识”,各是什么概念?有什么用? - 白话英语0156》这篇文章中,我把sightwords.com网站对于这两个“意识”的介绍进行了翻译,并谈了自己的看法,也得到了朋友们的好评,感谢大家!

本来,不出意外的话,下一步就是把他们的具体做法——课程(curriculum)——也编译过来,供朋友们参考。但我点进课程页面一瞧,我的天!

请注意,上面还仅仅是这个庞大课程库的一小部分。英语里有一个词叫overwhelmed,被击败,被征服,我想我就overwhelmed了!

当然,多有多的好处。在翻译相关材料的时候,我深深感觉到,这个课程就是适合低龄儿童的内容。虽然今天我不能把这110个游戏、活动介绍给大家,但我可以把相关内容搬过来给大家看看。

后面请大家给我一段时间,我来慢慢整理,力争把这些内容分门别类地呈现给大家。下期开始我要转向自然拼读了,所以这个系列会暂别一段时间,请大家耐心等等。

下面开始翻译对照时间(译者 武太白,为便于理解,也做了个别地方的改编):

Phonemic Awareness Curriculum and Lessons

“音素意识”课程与教学

1. Phonemic Awareness Curriculum

“音素意识”课程

Our curriculum is based on the 110 games, arranged in an order that’s research-supported and classroom-proven to lead to successful reading. Each game builds on the skills taught in the previous games, and the children should be confident on each of the previous lessons before they move on to a new lesson.

sightwords.com设计的“音素意识”课程可了不得,总共有110个游戏,按照有研究支撑的、有课堂教学验证的顺序加以安排,能够促进“读”的成功学习。每一个游戏都在此前游戏中教学过的技能基础之上有所发展,孩子在进行新课之前应该对此前的每一节课都有掌握的信心。

Children who complete this pre-reading curriculum will have a strong foundation for learning to read and will be ready to start a traditional reading curriculum of phonics and sight words.

完成此项读前课程的孩子将打下牢固的学习基础,不难学会“读”,并将做好准备,开启传统的自然拼读和认读词的学习课程。

NOTE: Be sure to consult our Before You Start page and our Pacing & Assessment page before you dive in!

注意:在急着开始之前,一定要看看我们的“课前必读”页面,和我们的“步调与测试”页面!

2. Lessons

教学

Each lesson takes approximately 15 minutes and is most effective when taught to children individually or in small groups (2-5 children). Use your lesson time to present one new game, and possibly devote 5 minutes at the end to review an activity the child has already mastered.

每一课大约15分钟,对一个或少数几个孩子(2-5人)来说最有效。使用授课时间呈现一个新游戏,可能的话在结束前花上五分钟复习一下孩子已经掌握的活动。

3. Confidence Builders & Extensions

培养信心,加以扩展

Every child is different and will move through our curriculum at a different pace. A child who breezes through the Rhyming games may struggle with Compound Words, while another child will struggle with Rhyming but master the Compound Words activities very quickly.

每个孩子都不一样,完成本课程的步调也会有所不同。一个对押韵游戏举重若轻的孩子可能碰到合成词部分就觉得困难,而对押韵游戏不算擅长的孩子却能够轻松地掌握合成词部分。

Many of our activity pages feature recommendations for adjusting the activity to the needs of your particular child or classroom:

我们的活动页面中,有许多都特地突出了一些推荐和建议,以调整活动,适应您自己的孩子或课堂教学:

Confidence Builders make the game a little easier for struggling students.

培养信心提示使得游戏对那些有困难的孩子来说会变得容易一点。

Extensions offer extra challenges for children who have already mastered the main activity.

扩展活动为已经掌握了主活动的孩子提供额外的挑战。

Variations suggest options for changing up the game a little to add variety.

变换部分提出了建议和选项,用以略微改变游戏,从而更加多样化。

Group Variations offer tips for scaling up from an individual child to a group of children.

小组变换部分提供了小贴士,以便使活动能够有效应对单个孩子到小组的不同教学规模。

4. Lesson Schedule

教学日程

Our Curriculum is specially designed and organized to lead your child from toddlerhood to full readiness for reading. Go through all the activities in order, making sure your child has a good handle on each one before you move on to the next.

sightwords.com的课程特别设计、组织,用于把您的孩子从学步阶段引导到为阅读完全做好准备的阶段。按照顺序完成所有这些活动,确保孩子在继续前已经掌握了现有的活动要领。

Print out our Phonemic Awareness Pacing Guide for suggestions on how to focus your lessons for children of different ages. When your child reaches the end of our program, he/she will know all the letter sounds and will be well on his/her way to learning to read!

可以把网站的“音素意识步调安排指南”打印出来,那里提供了建议,阐明了怎样把你的课程焦点调整妥当,以适应不同年龄段的孩子。等孩子完成了这项课程,他们就掌握了所有的字母发音,也就能顺利地去学习“读”了!

5. Frequently Asked Questions

常见问答

Q: How old does my child need to be before I start teaching him Phonemic Awareness?

问:我的孩子要有多大,我才能开始教他“音素意识”?

A: The Phonemic Awareness curriculum is generally recommended for children who are three to five years old. Some of the Listening activities can be done with a child as young as two, but only if the child is a willing participant.

答:我们通常推荐3-5岁的孩子学习“音素意识”课程。一些听力活动可以跟两岁的孩子开展,但仅仅在孩子有意愿参与的情况下。

Q: How long will it take to go through the entire Phonemic Awareness curriculum?

问:整个“音素意识”课程,需要多长时间才能学完?

A: Again, this depends on your particular child or group of children. The average time, for typical four-year-old children, is ten months or one school year.

答:还是那句话,这要看孩子(们)的具体情况 。对一个四岁孩子来说,平均时间是十个月,或者说一学年。

Q: All the pages have scripts for how to do each activity. Do I really need to follow the script exactly?

问:所有的页面都有脚本说明怎样做每一个活动。我真的需要精确遵循脚本的说法吗?

A: We have worked hard to develop scripts that will make each activity go as smoothly as possible. Our scripts use age-appropriate vocabulary and terminology. We strongly recommend that you not add much to the script, particularly extra words that clutter upthe activity and confuse or distract the child from the task at hand.

答:我们努力开发了这些脚本,目的就是要使每个活动都尽可能顺畅地进行。我们的脚本使用了适合于不同年龄段的词汇和术语。我们强烈建议不要添加过多内容到脚本中去,尤其是额外的词,那样会使课程活动“淤塞”起来,会使孩子感到困惑,或者分散其注意力,使他们不能专注于当前的活动。
