Learn to write press releases? (sixth grade)

Press release is a practical style to spread valuable news, and its four characteristics are authenticity, timeliness, accuracy and conciseness. Pupils should cultivate civic awareness from an early age and gradually learn to observe life, experience life, judge life and intervene in life. It is for this reason that they advocate being a small reporter and learning news release. Especially in the "self-media era", it is more and more important to learn to write press releases.

1. Learn to extract, filter and reorganize information by sharing observation records and reports of real activity situations.

2. Through the comparison between "report" and "press release", understand the basic format and characteristics of press release, and master the basic writing of press release in the process of revision and communication.

By learning to write press releases, we can enhance our awareness of caring about life and society, consciously observe life and have our own unique feelings.

first kind

First, competition before class, focusing on real materials.

1. Before class, the class organized a coin blowing contest.

Rules of the game: blow the one-dollar coin fixed on three pins in the center of the table with your mouth. The competition is divided into eight groups, and eight players in each round compete at the same time. It is valid within 5 minutes, and failure within 5 minutes is regarded as failure.

(1) Blow only with your mouth, and you are not allowed to borrow any other auxiliary appliances;

② Don't move, shake or shake the table;

③ Don't touch the props, any touch will be regarded as a foul;

Only one player in each group is allowed to take the stage in each round, and the one who takes the least time wins.

2. During the competition, students observe and record the competition information (see the table below).

Second, situation-driven, trying to work independently

1. The school red scarf radio station collects news materials of each class. Please talk about what can be reported in the class or school.

Let the students compare and find that the "Coin Blowing Competition" is the latest real event, attractive and worth recommending, so as to clarify two requirements of the press release: freshness and truthfulness. Please report the class "coin blowing contest" to the school.

If you want to report it, you have to make it clear. Please write down the events.

It takes about 8~ 10 minutes, depending on the students' learning situation.

Third, compare reading to find the characteristics of press releases.

1. Let two students read the report to their classmates and the teacher will project it.

Sample 1:

Yesterday, the Chinese teacher organized us to hold a "coin blowing contest". The teacher put a one-dollar coin on three pins that passed through the rubber. Let's blow it off the pins with our mouths. I thought: Isn't it easy? Coins are so light, don't they come down with a light blow? However, things are not that simple.

We were divided into eight groups to compete, and one member was sent in each round. Everyone took enough breath and blew hard at the coin, but the coin did not move. As a result, the team members inhaled again and almost wanted to suck milk, but the result still failed. In this way, for two consecutive rounds, the coin seemed to be welded on a pin, and eight players failed to blow it off.

……

At the end of the competition, Wang won the individual first place, and the third group won the group first place with a total score of 3 points 19 seconds.

Sample 2:

On the morning of February 28th, a coin blowing contest was held in Class 60 1. The teacher inserted three needles in the eraser and put a one-dollar coin on the tip. Let the player blow off the coins on the pin with his mouth.

The class is divided into eight groups. The competition is divided into five rounds, with one player in each round, and the time limit is 5 minutes.

In the first two rounds, the players sent by each team failed. After a brief tactical discussion, in the third round, Zhuo Yue, a student in the third group, took the lead in achieving success. After that, each group succeeded in succession.

Finally, the competition decided the individual first place and the group first place, which were the eighth group and the third group where Wang belonged.

2. Imagine that if you were the editor-in-chief of a radio station, which one would you prefer to choose and explain the reasons.

Find another basic feature of press releases: conciseness.

3. Read more newspaper drafts of voting and think about whether it can be directly used as a press release.

Preset a different view:

Default 1: The content is concise, the materials are true, and the sentences are fluent. It can be directly used as a press release.

Premise 2: Press releases should have fixed format requirements, which are different from ordinary narratives and cannot be directly used as press releases.

4. Teachers provide two samples of press releases to compare the basic format requirements of news.

Title-the title describes the main content of the news; It can be a single title, or it can have a main title and a subtitle.

Introduction-The first paragraph of the article explains the main contents of the news and the results of the event.

Theme-introduce the ins and outs of news and supplement the relevant information of the main content.

Conclusion-Introduce the significance of the event and summarize the news theme. Fourth, self-correction, interactive exchange of comments

1. Students are required to modify the press release according to its basic format and characteristics and their own materials.

2. The group of four recommended the students to revise the press release for collective communication.

(1) Ask the students to review the basic requirements of the press release, and the teacher will randomly show the evaluation criteria.

Press release evaluation criteria:

(1) content-true and fresh.

2 language-simplicity.

3 format-title, introduction, text and conclusion are complete.

(2) Evaluate each other in groups of four and recommend that the press release be revised appropriately.

(3) Press release display and collective comments.

Ask students to evaluate according to the evaluation criteria.

Second lesson

First, with the help of brain map, broaden the thinking of exercises
