今年度は、いずれ何らかの形態で研究授業をしなければならないので、それに備えていくつか実験的な取り組みをしている。今回紹介するのはその一つ。科学リーディングという所属校独自のスーパー・サイエンス・ハイスクール科目での授業である。
狙いは、先を予想しながら進める読解の指導、それと読解を基にしたライティングの演習。というわけで、以下のような課題を用意した。
A) Traditionally, history has been written by and about men. (Even though some feminists have attacked the word history, the original meaning does not come from his story. It comes from the Greek word historia, which means inquiry or narrative.)
Because history has emphasized [ 1 ] and battles, women's role in shaping the past has been ignored, or seen from a male point of view.
B) This is an example. The average man is bigger and heavier than the average woman. This is true in all societies, although of course many women are taller and heavier than many men. Sociologists who studies primitive societies believed that men evolved to be bigger and stronger because they did the [ 2 ], whereas women didn't need to be so strong because they "only" developed agriculture. The sociologists explained the difference in size, but from a male point of view.
C) In contrast, recent research has looked at the same situation from a different angle. Sociologists pointed out that among primates (apes and monkeys), the males are also larger than the females, in spite of the fact that the male don't hunt. Greater size is not much advantage to animals that eat leaves. Scholars concluded that primates and humans did not evolve bigger males; [ ].
3つのパッセージは、横置きB4用紙の左上、左下、右上に配置。紙は二回折って、一回につき1つのパッセージしか見られないようにしておく。
それぞれのパッセージ毎に、語彙の確認、質問の投げかけ、質問の答えを探りながらの読解、グループ内での意見の交換、発表という具合で進める。
最初のパッセージの質問は、Why do some feminists attack the word history?とWhat is the suitable noun for blank 1? The noun represents a type of person. である。
二つ目のパッセージの質問は、What is the suitable word for blank 2? The word starts with the letter "h." である。
三つ目のパッセージの質問は、Write a suitable sentence in blank 3.
そして、最後に、右下のスペースに、予想されるこの話の結末を作文するというものである。
