神器|强力推荐: Chants 制作神器鼓点|copy|推荐|制作

那天收到来自河南焦作的小冯的信息，小冯老师发来了一张电脑的截图，然后问道：田老师，打扰你了。后天有个区里的公开课。在这节课的巩固环节想自编个chant。可是找了这么多天，也没找到合适的伴奏乐曲。不知道您有没有好的建议。

仔细读着小冯老师提供的语言材料。一边读，一边打着节奏。于是，结合自己的认知理解和节奏的需要，将以上的文字材料进行适当的增加，变成了以下的内容。
Sweets, sweets
Some sweets.
Can I have some sweets?
Yes, you can.
Yes, you can.
Yes, you can.
Sweets. Sweets
Some sweets.
Can I have some sweets?
Sorry, you can’t.
Sorry, you can’t.
Sorry, you can’t.
确定以上文本之后，在电脑上找寻到曾经存储的一段鼓点的伴奏音乐。打开Audacity,先将这段节奏音乐导入，然后点击录音功能，于是，在鼓点的伴奏下有节奏地进行了朗读。录制完毕，将杂音消掉，将人声放大，将音平均衡，保存并导出成为MP3格式的文件，就此搞定。
【 神器|强力推荐: Chants 制作神器】Chants 在小学英语教学中的确运用得非常广泛。很多老师在尝试运用Chants的时候，都苦于找不到合适的伴奏音乐，尤其是节奏性强的鼓点。其实，这并不难。个人建议：第一、没有鼓点，我们拍掌也是蛮好的。如果真要鼓点节凑，那么，给出两条建议：第一，处处留心“皆学问”。平常我们多些观察，多些积累，包括多收集一些不错的适用的鼓点节奏，这是必须的；第二，利用今天的推送，给大家推荐一个 Chant 节奏制作神器。那就是大名鼎鼎的Garage Band 音乐制作软件，中文名：库乐队。

在小学英语教学中如何使用Chant辅助教学，曾经有过一些思考。在此一并推送分享。
第一、何为 chants
网络搜索，给出这样的答案：words or phrases that are repeated again and again by a group of people
第二、为什么 Chants
小学生年龄特点，活泼好动，有效记忆时间短，要求我们采用形式多样的教学活动帮助学生学习；
Chants有它独特的优势。不仅可以尝试着将要点单词和句型反复地呈现，而且可以让孩子们在欢快的节奏下一边朗朗诵读巩固所学，还能够激发孩子们的学习兴趣；
Chants很适合“无音不全”的朋友们运用。只要把握好节奏，朗朗地读起来就好。
第三、怎样用 Chants
实例一：Practice stress and rhythm
* Choose a jazz chant you want to use and make one copy of the chant for every pair of students in your class.
* Play the recording for the first time just for fun.
Give each student a copy of the recording script, and play the recording again as they listen and read at the same time.
* Put students into pairs and have them put a small circle above each word that is stressed. Check their answers, then play the recording again as they listen and check.
* Finally, play the recording one more time and have students sing along.
实例二：Review vocabulary
* Check the vocabulary focus for each jazz chant and choose one you want to review.Make one copy of the Recording script for every two students in your class.
* Write the vocabulary focus on the board and put students into pairs to make a list of as many associated words as they can.
* Play the recording and have students note all the words they hear that are associated with the vocabulary focus.
* Give each student a copy of the Recording script, and play the recording again as they listen and read at the same time. Tell them to underline all the target words.
* Finally, play the recording one more time and have students sing along.
实例三：Review grammar
* Check the grammar focus for each jazz chant and choose one you want to review.Make one copy of the Recording script for every two students in your class.
* Write the grammar focus on the board and put students into pairs to make a few example sentences using the grammar.
