干貨分享：幼兒英文故事學習巧方法

　　1.由于學齡前孩子集中精力長度不同，所以要根據不同年齡段的孩子，選擇不同長度的故事。

　　一般來說，3-4歲的孩子，應選擇5-6分鐘長度的故事；4-6歲的孩子選擇6-10分鐘；9-10歲的孩子可選擇超過20分鐘長度的故事。針對低幼的孩子，家長(微博)們可以選擇有鮮艷顏色插圖的故事書，有助于抓住他們的注意力。

　　2.給孩子講故事時要注重視聽結合，借助實物、口形示范和手勢等直觀手段，形象具體地向孩子示范發音，并讓孩子反復的辨別和體驗。

　　3.邊講邊啟發孩子填出部分關鍵詞，如：“A dog is (stronger) than cat, a tiger is (much)stronger than dog, an elephant is (the strongest )among three animals. (狗比貓強壯，老虎比狗更強壯，大象是三種動物中最強壯的)

　　4.講完故事后，可讓孩子復述故事(故事中部分情節或故事大意)，以培養孩子的概括能力，發展孩子的創造力。

　　A Clever Panda

　　A little panda picks up a pumpkin and wants to take it home. But the pumpkin is too big. The panda can’t take it home.

　　Suddenly she sees a bear riding a bike toward her. She watches the bike. “I know! I have a good idea.” she jumps and shouts happily, “I can roll a pumpkin. It’s like a wheel.”

　　So she rolls the pumpkin to her home. When her mother sees the big pumpkin, she is surprised, “Oh, my God! How can you carry it home?” the little panda answers proudly, “I can’t lift it, but I can roll it.” Her mother smiled and says，“What a clever girl! Use you heard to do something,”

　　聰明的熊貓

　　一只小熊貓摘了一只大南瓜，想把它拿回家。但是這只南瓜太大了，她沒有辦法把這么大的南瓜帶回家。

　　突然她看見一只狗熊騎著一輛自行車朝她這邊來。她看著自行車，跳著說：“有了！我有辦法了。我可以把南瓜滾回家去。南瓜好像車輪。

　　于是她把那瓜滾回家。當她媽媽看到這只大南瓜的時候，很驚訝：“天啊！這么食的南瓜！你是怎么把它帶回家來的？”小熊貓自豪地說；“我拎不動它，可是我能滾動它啊！”她媽媽微笑著說：“真聰明啊！記住：只要你肯動腦筋，沒有難辦的事。

　　One story about Jack，an Irishman，who was not allowed into Heaven because he was stingy with his money.

　　關于萬圣節有這樣一個故事。是說有一個叫杰克的愛爾蘭人，因為他對錢特別的吝嗇，就不允許他進入天堂，而被打入地獄。

　　So he was sent to hell. But down there he played tricks on the Devil （Satan）， so he was kicked out of Hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern.

　　但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦，所以被踢出地獄，罰他提著燈籠永遠在人世里行走。

　　Well，Irish children made Jack's lanterns on October 31st from a large potato or turnip， hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside.

　　在十月三十一日愛爾蘭的孩子們用土豆和蘿卜制作“杰克的燈籠”，他們把中間挖掉、表面上打洞并在里邊點上蠟燭。

　　And Irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village Halloween festival that honored the Druid god Muck olla.

　　為村里慶祝督伊德神的萬圣節，孩子們提著這種燈籠挨家挨戶乞討食物。

　　The Irish name for these lanterns was "Jack with the lantern" or "Jack of the lantern，" abbreviated as " Jack-o'-lantern" and now spelled "jack-o-lantern."The traditional Halloween you can read about in most books was just children's fun night.

　　這種燈籠的愛爾蘭名字是“拿燈籠的杰克”或者“杰克的燈籠”，縮寫為Jack-o'-lantern 。現在你在大多數書里讀到的萬圣節只是孩子們開心的夜晚。

　　Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school.

　　在小學校里，萬圣節是每年十月份開始慶祝的。
