在日常的阅读教学中，我们多以单篇阅读教学为主。在让学生习得相关语言的同时，进而提高阅读理解能力及相关技能。但单篇阅读，一个学期只教授学生二三十篇文章，其阅读量是远远不够的。初中英语群文阅读教学，尤其是在复习课中，对提高学生的阅读速度、增加阅读量、训练阅读策略、提高阅读理解能力是很有效的，是对单篇阅读教学的一个很好的补充。接下来我想以一节课例来探讨初中英语课外群文阅读的实施策略。
在复习外研版八年级英语（上）Module 3 Sports时，确立了I do sports, I’m healthy，I’m happy.这一主题为线索的议题，围绕该议题选取了四篇文章，并把此四篇文章视作一个语篇整体进行教学设计。
群文阅读语篇列表
Sports
Passage 1 Training hard
Passage 2 Some students’ favourite sports
Passage 3 Jogging
Passage 4 Sportsmen
本节课在帮助学生习得本模块所涉及的语言知识及训练学生阅读策略的同时，也旨在引导学生就Sports这一议题的阅读过程中进行集体建构，最终达成共识，实现德育渗透，践行学科教学的育人理念。下面详细介绍教学环节。
首先，本节课教师以校运会精彩视频直接导课，既激发了学生浓厚的阅读兴趣，也成功地引入了话题。该视频教学情景具有真实性、现实性，使学生感到所学内容与自己密切相关，调动了学生积极参与议题建构的热情，学生乐于表达自己的真实想法。教师对学生说Our class won many prizes at the sports meeting. As your head teacher, I’m very proud of you，极大地鼓舞了学生。接下来，对Passage 1 的阅读中，既复习了该模块有关运动的很多短语，也在情感上教育学生任何事情的成功，都要付出艰辛的努力。In order to be successful, we must do a lot of training. We must train hard. 在引入Passage2 时，教师对学生说There are many kinds of sports in the world ，紧接着，通过许多图片展示，给学生拓展了课本之外的许多跟运动有关的词汇，并与学生讨论What’s your favourite sport？本环节，教师侧重了对学生学习能力的培养，指导学生运用预测、扫读及细读等阅读策略进行真实阅读，并完成Exercise 1 , Exercise 2及Exercise 3。
Exercise 1：Read Passage1 and complete the table.
what why
1.We arrive .
2.We are training than .
3.It is to practise in winter.
4.Our coach is .
Exercise 2：Scan Passage 2 and underline the students’ favourite sports.
Exercise 3：Read Passage2 carefully and answer: Why do they like doing these sports?
Exercise 4：What’s your favourite sport ? Why do you like it ?
师生之间关于favourite sport 的交流，既培养了学生运用英语表达的能力，也使学生对议题有更深的认知。
在有效引发了学生对sports的认知后，教师请学生阅读Passage 3，并完成Exercise 4及Exercise 5。Passage 3 中Jack和Robert是不同的运动员，各自要做什么，不能做什么，有助于学生联系自己的实际，To be healthy ，what should I do？What shouldn’t I do？ 学生只有切身参与到分析问题与解决问题的过程中，学生思维的敏捷性才能得到提升。这也是学科核心素养需要培养的关键能力之一。通过小组合作，学生分析，总结了Jack 和 Robert 作为成功运动员的原因，并让自己意识到为了保持健康，需要有毅力，也需要有克制。
Exercise 4 Read Passage 3 and complete the Information Card.
What does Jack usually do in the morning? 1
Why doesn’t Jack want to be fat ? 2
How often does Robert eat meals？ 3
When does Robert practise？ 4
Is a good sumo wrestler fat ? 5
Exercise 5 work in groups. Discuss：I want to be healthy，what should I do ?What shouldn’t I do ?
前三篇文章使学生对议题有了较深刻的理解与思考，接着教师指出There is one sport which is popular with many people in the world。引出Passage 4 Jogging。通过前面的复习、认知、讨论，最后紧扣主题，并推荐一种很多人喜欢的运动慢跑。坚持慢跑运动，既有利于学生身体健康，有也利于学生毅力品格的形成。这也是本节课情感教育的最终落脚点。学生阅读Passage 4 ，完成Exercise 6 及Exercise 7。
Exercise 6：Read the passage and complete the sentences .
1.Jogging means .
2.Walking is than jogging.
3.To start jogging, you only need some .
4.Jogging in the country side is than jogging in the city.
5.The more you go jogging , you will feel.
Exercise 7：Discuss：Keep on jogging , what is the most important?
在最后，老师顺势说I do sports , I’m happy, I’m healthy.In order to keep healthy， let’s do sports together。此时，在英文版《健康歌》的欢快乐曲中，所有同学起身和老师跳健康操，大家在轻松、愉快、活力中结束该课，将do sports 实际展现，成功地对学生进行了德育渗透，并于阅读过程中培养了学生的英语学科核心素养，真正实现了学科的育人价值。

Sports
Passage One
Training hard
By Li Daming
It is Saturday tomorrow, but I am going to school. I am not going for lessons, but to play football. I am in our school team and we are going to play against another school next week. The practice starts at 10 am. We all arrive as early as we can so that we have time to warm up. We are training harder than usual because the other team beat us last year. This year we want to do better.
It is more difficult to practice in winter because the days are short and the weather is cold too. It gets dark earlier, so it is important not to be late for after-school practice.
Our coach is pleased because we are playing better as a team now. Last year we were sometimes careless when we passed the ball and we lost to the other team in the final match. What a pity! This year we are training more carefully. That means we have a better chance of winning.
The fan club has fewer people this year. We hope to play well so that we have more fans to watch the matches. It is good to have our fans around. They cheer us on loudly and we feel more confident to win the game.
Passage Two
Some students’ favourite sports
PE (体育) is difficult but I like it very much. I am in our city sports club. The members in the club are all young, between 6 and 13 years old. I go to the club every Sunday. I do the sports very hard. I want to be an Olympic champion (冠军).
— Sara
Running! Lots of people don’t think it is exciting. However, I like running very much. I run every morning. Running isn’t expensive so anyone can run. Running is a good sport. Let’s run together!
— Alex
Basketball, the Miami Heat T-Shirts and James are part of my life. I play basketball with my classmates on Saturday mornings. I watch basketball games on TV with my brother on Saturday evenings. However, my sister Lisa doesn’t like watching that. She likes tennis.
— Frank
Passage Three
Jack and Robert are sportsmen, but they are different. Jack is a runner. Every morning he goes swimming for one hour. Then he does strength training (力量训练) and practises running. He likes fish, beef and eggs. He eats a lot of fruit and vegetables too. He hardly ever eats junk food. Jack says he can’t be fat, or he can’t run fast. Robert is a sumo wrestler (相扑手). He weighs more than 150 kg, because he eats a lot and sleeps a long time. Robert only has lunch and supper every day, but he eats a lot. And he usually sleeps from the early evening to the next noon. He only practises in the afternoon. The training is usually very hard. These habits help him keep fat and be a good sumo wrestler.
Passage Four
A lot of people around the world enjoy jogging. Jogging means running slowly, but it is still faster than walking. In the mornings and evenings you can see people jogging in parks or along city streets. Jogging is cheaper than many sports－to start, just get some comfortable sports clothes and good running shoes.
I enjoy jogging with my friends Tommy and Anna. In the early mornings we often go jogging in the park. Then we are ready for school. At weekends, we sometimes go jogging in the countryside. It is more fun than jogging in the city and we feel good in the fresh air. The more you go jogging, the longer you will run and the healthier you will feel. Just try it!
