[方法探讨] 我们是这样读分级读物的

现在儿子快三周岁了，经过绘本的阅读阶段后，目前会加入一点手头上有的分级读物，如Heinemann的。但我买的这套是Grade1的，而且还缺了不少。分级读物一般没有绘本让儿子那么有兴趣，但句型简单重复多对孩子的自主阅读肯定是有很大帮助的。

前几天一个晚上，我拿出几本绘本和两三本分级读物。我先拿分级读物要读，儿子一看：不要不要。然后要递给我一本绘本。
我拿的是Heinemann的Grade1的第52本：Down by the pond。为了说明清楚将内容抄写如下：

A bird is flying down by the pond.
The bird flies to its nest.

The bees are buzzing down by the pond.
They look for flowers.
Bees get food from flowers.

The frogs are hopping down by the pond.
They look for bugs to eat.

The turtle is crawling down by the pond.
It crawls out of the water.
It lays its eggs in the ground.

The snake is sliding down by the pond.
It slides into the grass.
It looks for mice to eat.

A mouse is running down by the pond.
He hides in the grass.
He hides from the snake.

The bird and the bees,the frogs and the turtle,the snake and the mouse, are down by the pond.

正当儿子不要我读的时候，我开始挥舞着自己的胳膊像鸟一样的飞起来，并且说Levy， you are a nest ,and mommy is a bird,I will fly to you.接着就飞着将头去碰他的肚子，逗得他哈哈笑，直说: 还要，还要。
哈，上钩了。
我说：The bed is a pond,you are a bird,and mommy is a nest,you fly down to mommy by the pond.
Levy：Ok。
接着他就站起来挥着两只胳膊朝我飞过来，扑倒我的怀里。这样一个场景结束，进行下一个。
我说：turn page 。他翻一页，然后我读一遍。听完读完，Levy已经迫不及待了。
Levy：I‘m （a）bee，you 是（are） flowers。I look for flowers. 然后就用手指指着我，嘴里buzz....z.................。
我：Ok，It’s mommy‘s turn. I am a bee,you are flowers,I will get food from you.
然后我就用手指挠痒痒他，嘴里说着buzz---------z----, 并摸着自己的肚子说：delicious, I am full.
Levy: my turn. I am a bee, you are flowers, I get food from you.  
之后，他自己摸着肚皮说：I am full too，yummy。 Turn page。
就这样，每个场景读完一遍后，再相互分角色玩一两次，在床上演各种动物的动作以及他们的叫声。到Turtle lays ite eggs in the ground的时候，故意在屁股后面抓几下放到床上，当作下蛋。好玩极了。Levy学snake的时候贴着床扭动着自己的屁股。

这样读分级读物，孩子的兴致很高，而且能跟着我重复句子。玩了一遍还想玩。

同样是Heinamann的Grade1的32本：tails。
其中有一段：
The monkey has a tail.
It uses its tail to swing on a tree.
我对他说：Do you have a tail?
Levy: Yes.
我: Do you want to use your tail to swing on a tree.
Levyexciting) Yes!
我：Ｏｋ，mommy is a tree,your one leg is your tail, use your "tail" to swing on me.
我就将他的脚挂在我肩膀上，来回荡着。

当我读下一段：A lion has a tail,too. She uses her tail to play with her cub。
我自己还不确定Levy是否理解cub的含义呢，这时候他就已经用嘴咬着我的睡裙的带子了，自己就将我的带子当作妈妈的尾巴了，我想cub 他应该是理解的了。
