一位优秀的教师不打无准备之仗,会提前做好准备,作为高中教师就要根据教学内容制定合适的教案。教案可以保证学生们在上课时能够更好的听课,帮助高中教师缓解教学的压力,提高教学质量。所以你在写高中教案时要注意些什么呢?急您所急,小编为朋友们了收集和编辑了“MyNewTeachers教案2”,仅供参考,欢迎大家阅读。
MyNewTeachers教案
Module2 MyNewTeachers
话题导入
老师——多么崇高、神圣的字眼。我们走过的人生每一步,老师总是在伴随着你,引导、支持着你。当你为挫折而沮丧时,正是老师的鼓励给了你信心和勇气;当你为一些成就而沾沾自喜时,老师在提醒你人生的道路充满着荆棘;当你为某事而烦恼不安时,老师给了你“灵丹妙药”,让你轻松走过每一个坎坷。
背景知识
StateSchoolsandPrivateSchools公立学校和私立学校
[美国]美国的学校分公立和私立两种。所有公立学校被50多个州支持,收费要比美国私立学校学费便宜得多,外国学生和外州的学生要缴纳非居住费。一般来讲,公立学校也提供一系列的优质服务,自由选择住宿、便利的就餐、俱乐部、学生组织、国际学生组织等。私立学校靠学费及公司的捐赠。这意味着私立学校的制度更适合学生的需要。他们可以有更小的班,更了解教授。私立学校的收费要比公立学校贵得多,很多人认为高昂的费用是值得的。有一些私立大学是全球最好的大学,比如哈佛、斯坦福等。这样多元化的教育系统构建了世界上优秀的人才培养平台。?
[英国]英国的学校也分为私立学校和公立学校。私立学校的学费要比公立学校的昂贵。私立学校的学费包括各种各样的费用,例如,学费、住宿费、膳食费、文具费、课本费,体育音乐等所需的基本设备费用。家长们可能需要负担专项学费,以用于购买乐器及学生打电话的费用。还可能支付一小笔人身意外事故保险金。校服和运动服也由家长出资购买。另外,私立学校的学生也必须接受公立学校的学生所接受的课程,例如历史。私立学校是为七岁到十一岁的孩子准备的,旨在为他们进入高一级的传统的公立学校而准备的。?
英国的公立学校都是免费的。一些声望很好的公立学校是学生选择的主要学校,但是入学竞争非常激烈。许多家长甚至不惜搬家以靠近学校而增加孩子入学的机会。大多数的公立学校都是男女生同校接受教育,宗教信仰不同的不在一起学习。私立学校就分男女生分校学习,接受不同宗教信仰的学生分校分班学习。??
