今天我选择的绘本是《Dear Zoo》
这是一本动物主题的绘本,里面有涉及不同种类的动物名词,形容词和颜色,还有容器的名词等。
适合刚开始英语启蒙不久的孩子。

Hi. You know what? I love animals.
So one day I wrote a letter to the zoo(假装在写信)
Dear zoo, would you please send me a pet?
Have a guess, did they send me a pet?
From the zoo(指封面)
Okay. The zoo sent me something. What was that? Was it a lion? Let's read the book together.
Dear zoo by Rod Cambell.
I wrote to the zoo to sent me a pet. They sent me a big yellow box. What was it inside the box?
What's it? It's an elephant. Wow. But he was too big(手势). No no no. I sent him back. Bye bye.
So they sent me a green box. Fragile. What was inside the box? What is it? It's a giraffe. Oh. He was too tall.(手势)Emm.摇头I sent him back. Bye bye.
…
They sent me a cage. It says from all your friends at the zoo.
(狗吠)wow. It's a dog. It's so cute. Not too big.(手势,下同)Not too tall. Not too fierce. Not too grumpy. Not too naughty. Not too jumpy. Not too scary. It's perfect. I kept him. Hello dog!
So finally, I got a pet. What is it? A dog.
改变记录:
①之前读这本绘本,只是照着原文读,没有加入问题,也没有和孩子产生比较好的互动。孩子的注意力有时在某一个点上,而我没有注意到,关顾着念书了。
现在的改变是:会加入简单的问题,把读绘本当成一种情境的营造,跟孩子的互动可以是让孩子模仿动物的叫声,让孩子翻翻书,看看箱子里面是什么小动物。
②「Dear Zoo」是有声书,网上有阅读的音频资源,也有视频资源,还有歌曲的资源,但我没能结合起来,每次亲子共读的方式都比较单一。
现在的我会在读书之前先给孩子听一遍音频➕音乐,再来读绘本,读的过程中问问题,给孩子5秒钟的时间思考,再继续读下去。也让孩子参与互动,帮忙翻书或者模仿动物的叫声,我也会做一些动作给孩子看,孩子特别喜欢我模仿动物,可能觉得有趣吧,有时还会模仿我,哈哈哈,读着读着挥舞爪子,或者跳来跳去,老母亲真的很卖力表演了。
③现在孩子小,特别喜欢机关书,所以Maisy的机关书,Dear zoo,pat the bunny,where's baby's belly button这类型的机关书,孩子比较喜欢。
英语角有的,床头柜的书是最近看的。不过孩子还小,15m+,还不敢给她太多书,否则稍不留意就毁书了。
