經(jīng)常有家長問我：小朋友什么時候開始英語寫作的學(xué)習(xí)為好,？這個問題，其實暗含了這樣一種預(yù)設(shè),，那就是小朋友要學(xué)一段時間英語,，主要是英語口語，然后再開始學(xué)英語寫作,，這樣比較好,。問“什么時候開始為好”，問的是英語學(xué)習(xí)開始后多久再學(xué)習(xí)寫作為好,。
我的答案是：從英語學(xué)習(xí)的第一天,，就可以開始英語寫作的學(xué)習(xí)了。為什么不能呢,？學(xué)生們又不是剛剛出生,，他們已經(jīng)有了一定的生活經(jīng)驗、學(xué)習(xí)體驗,，只要掌握了一點語言技能,，就要用上。這和小學(xué)二年級開始學(xué)習(xí)看圖寫話,、三年級開始寫作文的語文學(xué)習(xí)畢竟還是不一樣的,！事實上，英美國家實際的教學(xué)操作,，更類似于我的觀點：他們從小朋友學(xué)習(xí)拼寫開始,，就在進行寫作的不斷滲透了。在曾經(jīng)介紹過的Writing A-Z,、Write Source等教材中,，也都有從GK開始寫作文的教學(xué)安排。
考慮到這一點,，今天我來把一套優(yōu)秀的英語寫作教材,，一套從低幼兒童開始的寫作教材，推薦給大家,，并結(jié)合這套教材,，談?wù)勎覍τ⒄Z寫作學(xué)習(xí)與教學(xué)的一二看法。Spectrum Writing 是一套在北美地區(qū)非常受歡迎的英文寫作教材,，適合 K-8 年級的學(xué)生在有經(jīng)驗的老師指導(dǎo)下循序漸進的學(xué)習(xí)寫作,。
根據(jù)我的觀察與測算，國內(nèi)小朋友跟英美小朋友的英語水平年級差大概是4-6年。我們?nèi)∫粋€平均數(shù),，相差5年,，GK設(shè)置為5歲，則5+5=10,，也即,，這套教材的GK等級，適合國內(nèi)10歲--小學(xué)四年級的孩子學(xué)習(xí),。來看一看內(nèi)頁：
我們看到,，這些都是最基礎(chǔ)的寫作要素，尤其是對于詞的功能界定,，能夠幫助小朋友從一開始就明確哪些詞可以怎么用,，對于上手寫作非常有用。G1（相當(dāng)于我們國內(nèi)小學(xué)五年級）開始接觸句子結(jié)構(gòu)：
G2（相當(dāng)于我們小學(xué)六年級,、上海的中預(yù)年級）開始接觸行為動詞時態(tài),，并利用這些時態(tài)對應(yīng)恰當(dāng)?shù)膱鼍昂褪录?br>
G3（相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)初一年級）繼續(xù)時態(tài)的運用，并加入了四種不同的句子類型的進一步學(xué)習(xí)：
G4（相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)初二年級上下）開始對于動詞,、名詞,、形容詞的精細化提出要求（vivid verbs、precise nouns）：
G5（相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)初三年級）開始向整個篇章的主旨大意和文章結(jié)構(gòu)進軍：
G6（相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)初三,、高一年級）一開頭就談了段落的結(jié)構(gòu)：
G7（相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)高二年級）開始關(guān)注大意與細節(jié)：
G8：相當(dāng)于國內(nèi)高二,、高三年級，探討的是總體框架與具體細節(jié)之間的呼應(yīng)與搭配關(guān)系,，這就是整篇文章層面的要求了：
當(dāng)然,，每一個等級內(nèi)部，都還有巨量的學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容等待著小朋友們?nèi)グl(fā)掘,。我把這些詳細內(nèi)容的列表放在本文附錄中,，感興趣的朋友可以拉到底部去看一看。
總共九本書,，都是內(nèi)容豐富的大部頭,，頁數(shù)分別為：| 年級 | 頁數(shù) | | GK | 132 | | G1 | 116 | | G2 | 116 | | G3 | 140 | | G4 | 148 | | G5 | 136 | | G6 | 140 | | G7 | 140 | | G8 | 148 |
這套書，不是一套拿來就能立刻使用的書,，需要一位好老師才能用好,，不然只是自己寫寫，連對答案都找不著地方,。寒假里,，我開設(shè)了高考英語寫作閱讀短訓(xùn)班，但高考寫作不完全是這套書的路子,，這套書更多地適用于國際學(xué)?？荚嚨奶茁贰Ｈ绻笥褌兿胍眠@套書學(xué)英語寫作，可以加我微信1825857217（武太白 致遠）跟我聯(lián)系,，如果人數(shù)夠多的話,，我們可以把課團起來。
