Introduction

In the past ten years, numerous Chinese scholars have devoted their time to studying vocabulary. Many papers that they wrote are related to vocabulary a lot. Those scholars who study vocabulary are concentrating on exploring some strategies on teaching vocabulary for primary school and middle school students. Only few of them focus on studying some strategies of teaching and learning words in the college.

Many domestic scholars, such as Yu Demin, Zhao Jun, Lv Mourong…etc, have written many papers that are related to vocabulary. They not only emphasize the importance of teaching and learning vocabulary, but present some strategies of teaching and learning vocabulary. Foreign scholars: Evelyn Hatch, Cheryle Brown and D.A Wilkins also wrote some papers that are connected with vocabulary. In their works, Vocabulary, Semantics and Language Education and Linguistics in Language Teaching, they presented some strategies of teaching and learning vocabulary and distinguished the relationship between words.

Although scholars did so many researches on how to teach and learn vocabulary, in order to find some proper strategies to teach and learn vocabulary, I would like to supplement some of my opinions about how to teach and learn words effectively at college.

What I would like to introduce in this part is the development of English vocabulary: the development of Old English and the development of Modern English. In his work Marxism and problems of Linguistics, Stalin pointed out that vocabulary is the building material of language.1 From the sentence I mentioned above, English learners need to understand that vocabulary plays an important role in the process of learning English. Therefore, it is necessary for learners to acquire some knowledge about the development of the English vocabulary, because it is essential for both teachers and students. To acquire some knowledge about the development of the words will help them teach and learn words effectively.

The study of the development of Old English vocabulary should not be separated from the growth of the English itself. The history of Old English started at

the conquest and settlement of the England by the Angles, Saxons and Jutes in 450 AD. The language spoken was Anglo-Saxon. It was known as the Old English. The English language from 1500 to now is called Modern English. Between Old English and Modern English was Middle English. In Modern English period, the stage of development of English vocabulary could be divided into three parts: the Renaissance period (1500-1700); at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries and after World War II till now.

In these two periods, the words from other countries, such as Old Norse, Latin, French, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, African, Indian…etc, were beginning to be absorbed as English words. Therefore, learning some knowledge about the development of English vocabulary is necessary for college students, for it will help them learn vocabulary well.

From what I have mentioned above, it could be concluded that vocabulary is the basic element that college students should learn, so it is important for both college teachers and students to know the significance of teaching and learning vocabulary. In the following part, I will introduce the significance of teaching and learning English words as well as present some strategies of teaching and learning English vocabulary to benefit both teachers and students. In this way, teaching vocabulary in the college could be improved and students could find a proper way to learn vocabulary effectively.

1. The Definition of a Word

Before discussing the significance and some approaches of teaching and learning college English words, the first thing that both college teachers and students need to know is the definition of a word.

The definition of a word has attracted more linguists?attention for centuries. Below are three different kinds of definition of what a word is. One is given by famous linguist Bloomfield. Bloomfield makes a difference between two types of linguistic forms: free forms and bound forms.2 Usually, free forms could use one word to express its meaning, but sometimes it could explain a full sentence by using

one word, while bound words can not. For instance, the word “bravely” contains the free form …brave” and bound form “-ly”. The former …brave” could be an independent unit or a complete sentence. (e.g. What kind of person he is?-Brave.) In this sentence only free form “brave” could express the meaning of the whole sentence. However, the suffix or bound form “-ly”could express nothing. Therefore, according to Bloomfield, a word is a minimal free form. 3

The second definition is given by Aristole, who defined a word as the smallest significant unit of speec h-a definition which held sway until recently.4 It uses a modern method to analyze that a new term needs to imply the smallest significant element of speech. In modern linguistic theory, it is known as a morpheme. Aristole defined a word is a morpheme.

The last one is defined by Lexicology. From the lexicology point of view a word is a combination of form (phonological) and meaning (lexical and grammar).5 Moreover, a word plays an important part in sentence.6

From above all, we see that giving a correct and accurate definition to a word is difficult, but usually most English learners think the definition given by Bloomfield and Lexicology is more suitable.

2. The Significance of Teaching and Learning College English Vocabulary

2.1 The Importance of Teaching Vocabulary

One of most famous linguists D.A Wilkins once said that “without grammar very little can be conveyed, without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed.” 7From this famous saying, English learners clearly see that vocabulary plays an important role when learning college English vocabulary. Phonetics, grammar and vocabulary are three basic elements of forming a language, but among them, vocabulary is the most basic building material of the language, without vocabulary there is no language.

In 1990s, college English teaching emphasized much in the process of teaching grammar, but now it centers on cultivating the students? communicative competency. The most valuable thing in this process is that students need to master numerous vocabulary, for without vocabulary the communication is difficult to go ahead. From

this point of view, it could be inferred that teaching English vocabulary is the most important segment in the college. Both teachers and students can benefit from the process of teaching words. It could help teachers develop students? intelligence and cultivate the students?competency of solving some problems. In addition, when teaching vocabulary, teachers need to be patient on the usage of vocabulary and grammatical form of vocabulary.

Before teaching vocabulary to their students, teachers have to consider the question: “How to teach students to master large vocabulary effectively?”Thus, teaching vocabulary is to become an important part in the process of teaching English. Teaching vocabulary effectively could help students master more words, communicate with people more confidently as well as pass examination easier.

2.2 The Importance of Learning Vocabulary

V ocabulary is the basic factor of forming a language, just as without building materials, it is impossible to build a huge mansion. It is quite similar to the former sentence, and it is impossible to build the “mansion” of vocabulary and improve the level of learning foreign language without vocabulary. Therefore, it is essential for English learners to master numerous words and know the significance of learning vocabulary, especially for college students.

The development of all language skills are tied to vocabulary closely. The ability of reading is related to the reading speed and correct understanding, for students can not improve the reading speed and its correctness without rich vocabulary. If you have no rich words, it also will influence your listening ability, because you can not hear or understand the content well. In the writing part, vocabulary also affects the ability of writing. When writing a composition, students need to have a good command of a word.

From what I have mentioned above, it could be concluded that learning more vocabulary is very important for college students to learn words. It affects the ability of reading, listening and writing. Learning vocabulary well could also help students improve their own skills of reading, listening and writing, and achieve some “fruits”from learning more words. However, students need to find a proper way to learn

words effectively.

3. Existing Problems in the Vocabulary Learning

3.1 Problems in Learning Vocabulary

Nowadays, more and more students are fond of learning English, learning English is popular in China, but here are some problems in the process of learning English language, especially in vocabulary learning. They are:

a.Neglected vocabulary in the certain context and separated vocabulary from

the certain context.

b.Emphasized much on spelling, but ignored its pronunciation.

c.Learned memorized and consolidated words mechanically and could not find

a proper way to enlarge their vocabulary.

d.Influenced by the mother tongu

e.

e.Neglected accumulation and revision words regularly.

Due to such problems in vocabulary learning, finding some proper ways to solve all problems is urgent. In the following part, I will introduce some strategies to solve problems.

3.2 Strategies for Solving These Problems

According to some problems illustrated in last part, I would like to present some strategies to solve these problems.

a.Teaching and learning words in the certain context will help you improve the

vocabulary.

b.Pronouncing vocabulary in the accurate way.

c.Learning, memorizing and consolidating new words regularly.

d.Trying their best to forget the mother tongu

e.

e.Accumulating and reviewing new vocabulary as possible as you can.

Although these strategies are not perfect for solving these problems, they will benefit English language learners very much.

4. Strategies of Teaching College English Vocabulary

4.1 The Principles of Teaching Vocabulary

According to the essence of the language and features of English teaching, the English vocabulary teaching must be based on the following principles.

4.1.1 Communicative Principle

The goal of learning language is to communicate with people successfully. Thus, teachers should teach vocabulary in the real environment, for using this method will make college students understand the real meaning of a word. After teaching meaning and usage of the word in the class, teachers should hypothesize a real environment for students to practice new words soon, because it will motivate students master more words as soon as possible.

4.1.2 Emotional Principle

The active emotion and a bit nervousness could help students improve their study efficiency. In the class, the teacher should cultivate students?interests of learning words, foster their active attitude to learn vocabulary and motivate their motivation to learn more words, because all of things could help students overcome their nervousness. For example, when learning vocabulary, the teacher could combine some interesting short stories, jokes and songs with the process of learning words, which will attract students to learn vocabulary in the relaxing environment. However, it is not easy for all teachers to follow this principle, which requires teachers have rich knowledge and strong abilities to use the language.

4.1.3 Systematic Principle

Learning is a process of organization. After teaching new words, the teacher must connect new words with the old ones together, because it will motivate students to memorize new vocabulary effectively. While organizing the old vocabulary, teachers must pay more attention to the relationship between words. If teachers use systematic approach to teach words, they will assist students to memorize new words easily.

4.1.4 Cultural Principle

Language is a part of culture. If you wish to learn English language well, the first thing that you should do is to manage to understand the English culture well.

English words are a part of English language and yet can not be separated from the culture. You know better about English culture, and you could learn English words more perfectly. It is arduous to find a precise word in Chinese, which matches an English word directly, however, you could find a lot of Chinese words which match an English word. On this condition, it is necessary for you to know English culture well and find a precise word to match a proper Chinese word. Knowing culture, teachers could find a proper or exact word to teach their students how to learn vocabulary more perfectly. Cultural principle is needed to persist all the time, since it is a key point whether teachers could teach vocabulary to their students well.

4.2 Strategies of Teaching Vocabulary

In recent years, there are many teaching strategies for college English teachers to teach words, but what I want to illustrate here is six more effective approaches.

4.2.1 Using Word-formation

Using word-formation to teach words is an excellent way for college students to learn vocabulary, for it will help students cultivate a strong ability to learn English vocabulary. Here, five approaches will be introduced, including affixation, compounding, conversion, shortening and blending.

The processes by which words are formed by adding affixes to a root are called affixation.8 There are two kinds of English affixation: prefixes and suffixes. Most prefixes, when adding the root to prefixes, can not change the word class, but change the word meaning. For example, prefix “un-”(natural-unnatural, pleasant-unpleasant), “dis-”(advantage-disadvantage, appear-disappear). On the contrary, suffixes can change one word class to another, such as suffix“-able” (knowledge n–knowledgeable a, bear v-bearable a), “-ness” (happy a-happiness n, sad a-sadness n). To sum up, if the teacher could teach students how to learn affixation, it would help students learn and memorize words easier than before.

Compounding is a process of word-formation by which two independent words are put together to make one word.9Words used to form compounding are called compounds. There are various kinds of compounds, such as noun compounds (postbox, landlady, rainbow), adjective compounds (bittersweet, blue-black), verb

compounds (sleepwalk, cutup, pickpocket), etc. What I mentioned here is the most important three, borrowing this approach to teach words not only could help the teacher teach words easier, but motivate students to learn vocabulary more effectively.

Conversion means using a form that represents one part of speech as another part of speech without changing the form of the word. 10 Conversion could not change the form of the word, but change the word class. Using word “good” for an example, it could be used to make a sentence “You look good today.”Here, “good”is an adjective, but in another sentence “That little talk with the boss certainly did him the world of good!” Here, “good” is a noun. Thus, teachers need to use conversion, when teaching words, if they wish to teach effectively in the class.

Shortening is also called abbreviation. There are three kinds of shortening: clipped words, initialisms and acronyms. Clipped words are clipped one part of a word and then used that part to represent the whole words. The shortening may appear at the beginning of a word (earthquake-quake, parachute-chute); at the end of a word (mathematics-math, modern-mod); in the middle of a word (refrigerator-fridge). Usually, clipped words are informal, but it is a good way to remember and teach words. Initialisms are words formed by initial letters of words and pronounced as letter: WTO=World Trade Organization, IMF=International Monetary https://www.sodocs.net/doc/fa9612435.html,ing innitialisms to teach words could motivate students to memorize new words easier. Acronyms are also formed by the initial letters of words, but they pronounced as word. NATO =North Atlantic Treaty Organization, AIDS =Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, OPEC =Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. These three kinds of shortening make vocabulary learning easier.

Blending is another approach for teaching vocabulary. In this modern time, there is a trend, that is, using few words to express more things, it is necessary for students to explore how blends are formed. A word that is combined parts of two words together?is called blending, such as breakfast+lunch=brunch; video+telephone= videophone; medical+care=medicare, etc. It is a good way to teach vocabulary in the college, for students could learn at least two words at the same time with one word.

In a word, word-formation is an effective way to teach and learn English words.

This strategy could be used to teach students to associate, memorize and consolidate new words as often as possible.

4.2.2 Using Synonyms, Antonyms and Hyponyms

Synonyms, antonyms and hyponyms are three more effective strategies for teaching English vocabulary. Words that are close in meaning are called synonyms. Using synonyms to teach vocabulary could help students distinguish similar words meaning clearly and learn more words at the same time. For example, when learning words “start”, learners could associate with its synonyms “begin” and “commence,”Antonyms are words that express opposite meaning. Antonyms are much like synonyms by which teachers could teach more words. For example, while learning a new word “old”, the teachers could ask students to find out its ant onyms “young”. Hyponymy refers to the sense relation between a more general, more inclusive word, and a more specific word, specific words are called hyponyms.11 For the word “flower”, teachers could request students to find some hyponyms such as “rose, lily, carnation, tulip …etc.”From above analysis, it is proved that these three methods could assist both teachers and students to teach and learn new words in an effective way, so they must be introduced to college students.

4.2.3 Using Video and Movie

Nowadays, with the development of the economy and technology, video and movie are quite popular in English teaching. The teachers also could use video and movie in vocabulary teaching. Compared with traditional teaching method, it is very colorful and easy to be accepted. Before enjoying video and movie, the teacher needs to introduce background knowledge about the video and movie. When encountering new words, teachers need to explain the meaning specifically and tell students to pay attention to these words when they appear in the film. Then, teacher must urge students to review these useful words and expressions so that students could achieve some new words and learn how to use these words, and teachers could create a good environment to teach new words.

4.2.4 Using Reading Materials

Reading materials is a good resource for students to enlarge vocabulary. In the

material, students can learn more vocabulary. For instance, in the following paragraph, teachers could instruct students to learn new words. Here I would like to illustrate below part as an example.

People who do eat too much fast food can have health problems. In the

United States, 3000,000 people a year die from illness related to obesity.

Twenty percent of children in the United States are overweight. The

problem has spread as Western fast food has become popular in countries

like China, India and Japan. Five to ten percent of Chinese children are

now overweight. (1)

After reading above materials, students could achieve some new words, such as “obesity”and “overweight”. Meanwhile the teachers need to teach students some strategies of how to guess the word meaning before students read the material. After reading the material, the teacher and students can read the material together in order to learn some new words. From above example, guiding students to find the new word “obesity” and “overweight” in the dictionary and explaining the meaning or giving the definition are necessary. Then, let students speak out the meaning; at last, the teacher let students read the material once more and memorize these new words.

4.2.5 Guessing New Words in the Context

The most important strategy in teaching vocabulary is guessing new words in the context. When one learns his first language, he will pick up most words from books, TV and daily conversation rather than teaching. There is no enough time to teach thousands of new words in the classroom, so sometimes students have to guess words meaning based on the context. However, it is difficult for them to guess words meaning successfully, yet some instructions are needed to teach students some strategies to guess words meaning in the context. When a learner meets a new word for the first time, he may ignore it, but he meets it again, he should guess the meaning from the context. Then he needs to substitute his guess meaning into the sentence to see if the meaning in the sentence is clear, in this way, he will soon realize if his guess is right or wrong. For example, “John is an industrious student, he gets up very early, reads a lot of books and studies very hard. He has awarded scholarship every

semester.” So what is “industrious”? Teacher can illustrate above sentence, and then let students guess new word meaning from other known words, such as “early”, “read books”, “hard” and “scholarship”. From information mentioned above, students could guess the word “industrious”meaning correctly. At last, teachers should instruct students to use affixes knowledge to guess words meaning, such as using prefixes and suffixes. However, students often fail to guess meaning from the context, if they do not know most words in the sentence, yet it must depend on most words in the context that they know most of them. Only in this way could students guess words meaning successfully.

4.2.6 Translating and Exemplifying

Translation is also a useful way to teach vocabulary. When the teacher meet some new words in the process of teaching words, they need to use this approach, but remember do not use it mechanically. They need to use translation flexibly to teach students to learn vocabulary, especially when teaching words to Chinese students, the teacher needs to find a proper Chinese word to explain the word meaning, for there are many Chinese words to match only one English word. In this way, students could learn vocabulary effectively. Exemplification is also a useful method to teach vocabulary, teachers could use some examples to explain the meaning of a word, such as the word “medicine”, and use specific names of medicine to explain the word meaning or make a sentence that include word “medicine”, for instance, “Medicine is used to cure some diseases”. Students could infer the real meaning of the word “medicine”by words “cure”and “diseases”. This approach is easier and direct. Therefore, translating and exemplifying are effective ways in vocabulary teaching.

5. Strategies of Enlarging College English Vocabulary

Most English learners have the same feelings that their English vocabularies are limited when they want to use them. They will find numerous new words when reading a book and also have the same experience when listening to a recorder so that they can not pick up a correct word to finish their works when writing a composition. Here, I will present six approaches to teach students how to enlarge their vocabulary.

5.1 Reading English Books Extensively

The more books students read, the more vocabulary they achieve, for in the process of reading, learners will encounter new words repeatedly, so reading English books extensively will encourage English learners to learn more words in order to enlarge their vocabulary. If students could follow aspects the below, they could read books extensively as well as enlarge their vocabulary, though there are some unknown words in the book.

a. Reading easier books extensively and looking up unknown words in the

dictionary regularly.

b. Using dictionary to find relative words, when reading a more difficult book.

c. After reading the book, please review some unknown words in your notebook.

d. Memorizing new words firstly, and then reading them in the certain material.

5.2 Putting Words and Phrases Together

It is an unwise method to learn vocabulary alone. Because in the different contexts, the meaning of a word could be changed, especially when their sentence styles and collections are changed. Wise learners will put words and phrases together, for using this approach learners could memorize and enlarge more words than before. In addition, learners could try their best to memorize some nouns and adjectives and adverbs so as to memorize the relative words. For example, when memorizing the word “knowledge”, it is a noun, but it could help learners to memorize its adjective and adverb form “knowledgeable” and“knowledgeably”. In brief, putting words and phrases together could enrich vocabulary, for one word has many collocations.

5.3 Cultivating the Interests of Learning Vocabulary

Lexicology is a scientific course, some phenomena in this course are very interesting. If students find that they have already achieved something in the process of learning and building up words, they are bound to have the interest in this course, so interest is a key element in this course. Only in this way could students learn and enlarge words effectively, for the interest is the mother of enlarging vocabulary.

5.4 Achieving Some New Words on the Internet

With the development of science and technology, surfing on the Internet is

becoming more and more popular, for this reason, English learners could achieve and learn some new words on the Internet. The Internet is not only a normal tool for English learners learning some relative knowledge, but a huge resource for learners to use it. It could be used to learn some new words, for some new products are produced every day, and consequently, students should learn to use this convenient and fast approach to achieve and enrich their vocabulary.

5.5 Using a Dictionary

The ability to use a dictionary properly could help students enlarge their vocabulary, however, students should be guided at the beginning of using a dictionary. The teacher can ask students to look up unknown words in the dictionary, and then tell them to put down all of the words in the notebook. In this way, students can collect some words in the process of learning English book. Keeping a vocabulary notebook is an important way for students to memorize and consolidate new words and help students enlarge their vocabulary. A vocabulary notebook is another kind of dictionary. Creating one?s own vocabulary notebook must include following points: a guideline i.e. an A-I format, pronunciation information, part of speech, English definition and translation,in addition, example sentences, collocations, antonyms and synonyms, pictures, word families, etc12 also could be included.

5.6 Reviewing New Words Regularly

Due to limited class time, students could hardly learn all new words in the classroom. Thus, teachers need to help students develop their own strategies to learn new words in order to enlarge students? vocabulary. Reviewing new words regularly is a good strategy to enlarge words. Students should be given time to pick up new words in the classroom, they also need to make efforts to use their extracurricular time to review new words regularly, for revision can help them memorize and remember new words.

Conclusion

English vocabulary plays an important role in the college, so both teachers and

students need to be patient in the process of teaching and learning college English. They also need to try their best to find some effective ways to teach and encourage students to learn new words. This paper centers on putting forward the significance of teaching and learning vocabulary and some approaches of teaching vocabulary in attempt to achieve some vocabulary in the college. However, the approaches of teaching and learning vocabulary I have mentioned are not completely perfect, which also needs teachers and students to probe some other strategies in the process of teaching and learning college English vocabulary. In this way, teaching vocabulary at college could be improved and students could find a proper way to learn vocabulary effectively as well.

英语教学论文英语教师论文

英语教学论文英语教师论文 浅谈如何在英语教学中转化学困生 学生初学英语感到新奇、有趣。但随着教学内容的增多,难度的加大,一部分学生在听、说、读、写方面出现掉队现象。久而久之,这类学生单词记不下,课文看不懂,上课不愿听,有的甚至放弃了英语学习,成为了学困生。然而,教师授课是面向全体学生,而学困生对学习无丝毫兴趣,还产生逆反、厌学心理,害怕记背单词,上课注意力不集中,不记笔记,教拼读音标却不看音标,不会拼读单词,不愿写作文。面对这些现象,那么英语教师该如何分析这些现象产生的原因?又该如何制订出相对应的策略来转化学困生呢? 下面就以上现象谈谈我的看法。 一、学生产生逆反、厌学心理的原因及对策 学生对新事物有很浓的兴趣,可是一旦在学习上不认真,就会逐渐听不懂,就会对课程失去兴趣,对自己失去信心。学习的积极性也就逐渐消逝,就会产生一种厌倦心理,不愿意再继续学习,产生厌学情绪。 针对学生的这种逆反、厌学心理,教师应从以下几方面来引导学生培养兴趣,建立自信。 (一)了解学困生的心理,善待他们,建立师生感情,激发学困生的学习动力,多发现学生的闪光点。

(二)教师不断改进教学方法,做到常教常新。 将自学辅导法,启发式和直观教学等方法交替使用。根据不同的课文内容,不同的情景,设计丰富多彩、生动活泼的教学方法,经常给学生换口味。这样,学生就会被教师灵活有趣的教学方式吸引,把精力全部集中在课堂上。 (三)开展一系列的第二课堂活动。 在听说方面,可以开设以下教学活动:英语故事会,英语报告会,英语演讲比赛。 在读写方面,组织学生出英语墙报,黑板报英语专辑,开展英语单词、短语默写比赛以及指导学生看图作文。 在培养能力方面,组织学生自编英语报,开展生动、有趣的英语游戏,排演英语文娱节目。从而,开阔学生的视野,让学生在活泼有趣的氛围中猎取知识,使学生学习英语的兴趣更浓。兴趣的培养对转化学困生尤其重要,实践证明学生的兴趣激发到最佳状态,以愉快的情绪自觉地投入到有趣的英语学习中去,必然会取得事半功倍的效果。 二、害怕记背英文单词的原因及对策 不认识音标,没有掌握字母拼写和读音的之间的拼读规则。如:sea、tea。字母ea的组合,发[i:]的音。let、set、辅音字母之间的e,发[e]的音。这就是学生不会读,背不下英语单词的原因。

小学英语论文浅谈小学英语单词的教学与记忆方法_通用版

小学英语论文-浅谈小学英语单词的教学与记忆方法通用版 现在,英语在人们的心中的地位越来越重要。从小学一年级就开始英语口语的学习,到三年级就要求掌握比较多的单词,这对学生来说,是一项非常重的任务。对于我们学校所处的地区,很多家长们的知识水平是比较低,但他们也知道英语的学习是很重要,可是他们却不知如何帮助子女。因此,不能完全依靠学生回家背单词,依赖家长监督指导。还是只能利用英语课堂上的有效学习和记忆。下面就来浅谈一下我的体会。 一、采用直观教学,创设模拟情景,激活学习兴趣,增强感官印象 1利用图片教授单词 有时,某些老师为了追求现代化,什么都使用电脑。如果只是用电脑显示图片的话,那么直接用图片教学更省时、更方便,而且效果也是一样。其实,图片在教学中起着重要的作用。学生对直接的实物教学比较容易接受,图片比较形象、直观,在一张纸上画上飞机、轮船、汽车、地铁、自行车、火车等,展示到学生面前,能够有效的刺激他们的大脑皮层,有利于长久记忆。当然,图片的出示要能够吸引学生,这就需要结合一些竞赛、游戏等活动进行教学。例如,我在五年级教交通工具的单词时,我就选用了竞猜游戏来激起学生兴趣。先让他们看到图片的一角,便问:“What is it? Can you guess?”学生会抢着回答:“Is it a …?”如果都猜不对,就开放更多的图片内容让他们猜。猜对就奖励他们一颗星。并呈现整张图片让学生加深印象。 2利用实物教授单词 现在,学生学习的内容,多与我们周围的环境有关,这就方便了我们利用实物进行教授单词。在四年级的时间教学中,要让学生明白时间的表示,必须利用时钟来反映时间,学生一看时钟就知道是什么时间,当老师教“What time is it? It’s one thirty.”他们就知道老师讲的是什么意思。我们就不用花太多时间去解释。在他们知道几个重要时刻的表示后,让学生归纳总结出时间的表示。最后让学生自己动手摆弄他们的时钟,边转动时钟,边练习。这样学生学习起来会较轻松和快乐。

[教学设计]小学英语高效课堂论文

[教学设计]小学英语高效课堂论文小学英语高效课堂之我见 ------龙泉小学聂丽生 高效课堂是以最小的教学和学习投入获得最大学习效益的课堂,基本特征是“自主建构,互动激发,高效生成,愉悦共享”。为了构建高效的小学英语课堂,必须从课堂导入、课堂提问、合作学习、语法教学、单词、句型教学、课堂交际、活动的安排和学法的指导上入手,多维思考,各个击破,提高教学质量。 小学英语有效教学是指在有限的时间和空间内,采取恰当的教学方式,增强学生积极参与学习活动的意识,提高学习兴趣、领略成功的喜悦,在融洽的教学氛围中,使学生的综合语言运用能力得到最好的发展,取得教与学的最佳效果。而构建高效的小学英语课堂,必须多维思考,各个击破,优化教学设计。而多维思考,我认为至少从以下几点入手: 一、教师应重视课堂导入,让学生轻松进入学英语的状态。课堂导入是教学的重要环节,一节课导入的成败直接影响课堂效果,因此应精心设计导入环节,以求得开场彩。但导入用时、用情应有度,不易过度渲染,否则不仅会“喧宾夺主”而且容易制造课堂垃圾时间,而且课堂前面时间显得很重要,应用在最重要的事情上,尤其是新授内容上,因此导入用时间尽量简短有效,一般不应超过3分钟。达到效果即可。 二、课堂提问应能调动学生学习的积极性。问题应能启发思维,让学生能主动学习。所以问题的提出,应基于学生学的实际掌握情况上,要有层次,有梯度,不能一个问题把整个班学生都问懵了的,也不能提那些几乎不用思考就能回答的问题,此类问题浪费宝贵的课堂时间,且无效。为保证提问的技巧性,应做到:(1)计划所要提出的问题。(2)问题应清楚具体。(3)若学生的回答过于简单,应追问并鼓

英语教学论文 高铁中学吕新莲 一、更新教学思想 教学班就是一个学生组织,教师和学生都是这个组织的成员,互相支持, 互相学习。教师的任务在于帮助学生认识学习对象,明确学习任务,确立学生目标;组织学习活动,创设学习环境;传授获取知识的方法。在教学过程中,我重视师生认知领域里的思维活动,能力领域里的训练活动,情感领域里的心理活动,并且注意三者的结合,以创造在学生年龄段上堪称高水平的影响深远的学习活动。 二、探索教学方法 1.激趣法。 教学心理学告诉我们,只有学生感兴趣的东西,学生才会积极地开动脑 筋认真思考,并以最简捷、最有效的方法去获得最必要的知识,这就是求知欲。可以说,没有兴趣就没有求知欲。当学生初学英语时,兴趣都很浓厚。 但随着学习难度的增加,逐渐遇到一些困难,如单词记不住,语音、语 调掌握不准等,就会产生畏难情绪,学习成绩也随之降低。在这个关键时刻,一方面,我帮助学生在认知领域里学会动脑,传授可供思考的知识,避免死记硬背。比如在引导学生读、记单词时,就教给拼读规则。同时,继续采用新奇而具“刺激”的教学手段,如放录像,挂图配合录音,开展“默写单词、首诵句型”的竞赛,等等,以帮助学生维持兴趣。另一方面,在情意领域里,我帮助学生了解学习材料,明确学习目的,以提高学英语的理性认识。同时,帮助学生建立英语学习的目标体系,指导他们寻求达成 一个个目标的途径和方法,鼓励他们在达成目标的过程中克服困难,磨 练意志。如此不断努力,一个个目标实现了,积小胜,成大胜,学生的学习兴趣就更大、更持久。 2.创设情境法。 任何人的学习活动总是从特定的背景中走出来进入学习状态的。这个背 景就是学习者和周围的环境、人群之间的关系。初中生年龄小,活泼好动,影响他们进入学习状态的因素更是多种多样。因此,我在课堂教学中注意创设情景,创设语境,吸引学生很快进入学习状态,同时保证他们在课堂上始终保持

小学英语教学论文教单词做游戏寓教于范文

小学英语教学论文教单词做游戏寓教于乐 小学英语教学中,单词教学是必不可少的一个重要环节。由于小学生年龄小,好玩,不愿把更多的精力花费在记单词上,因此,几乎所有的小学生一提起英语单词,就感到很头痛。这就要求教师注意教学方法,充分调动学生的学习积极性,把单词教学贯穿到娱乐之中,使学生学起来不感到枯燥、乏味,激发他们的学习兴趣,使他们每个人的学习才能得以充分发挥。 一、英语单词教学的五个步骤 1.让学生仔细听单词的读音。教师可放录音给他们听,使学生从听觉上正确地感受某个单词的读音。 2.让学生看所学单词所代表的事物之形状。因为小学英语中,大部分单词是表示具体的事物,抽象的甚少。这样教师就可以通过实物、卡片或了了几笔的简笔画,把要学的单词展示在学生面前,使学生有一种直观感受。如学习用品、交通工具、动物等单词,可以用实物或玩具进行直观教学。象sun,moon,star等单词,教师可用简笔画帮助教学,既生动,又形象。 3.让学生拼读单词。教师把所学单词书写在黑板上或卡片上,让学生拼读,掌握单词是由哪些字母组合而成的。 4.让学生想其读音和构成。通过以上三个步骤的训练,所学单词的读音和构成已基本上在学生大脑中形成。这时要求学生想一想所学单词读音和字母组合,主要是加深印象,让学生记牢。 5.让学生说出和写出单词,目的是检验学生的掌握情况。教师拿出实物或卡片,要求学生正确拼读出来,并能在三线本上写出来。如教师拿出苹果,学生观其形,就拼写出a-p-p-l-e

附图{图}。 以上五个步骤,缺一不可,只有通过听、看、读、说、写的练习,才算系统地完成了一个新单词的教学。 二、教单词与做游戏相结合,寓单词教学于娱乐之中 仅仅凭以上五个步骤的训练教学还不够,因为它们容易使学生产生疲劳感,会使学生感到厌烦,课堂教学气氛沉闷,不利于提高学生学习的积极性。于是,我在教单词时,辅以游戏,主要是测学生的记忆力如何。要求每个学生自制一朵大红花。教师教每个单词都只用3分钟,那就是让学生听30秒,看30秒,读1分钟,写1分钟。然后就听写所学单词,看谁的记忆力强。教师备有一本记录本,一次通过的,记忆力为100%,誉为“记忆力强者”,自己拿出大红花戴在胸前。有时教师还可备些小的奖品。3分钟不能通过,再重新背一遍。两次通过者,记忆力为80%,三次以上通过者,记忆力为60%。这样,调动了学生学习的积极性。个个都争做“记忆力强者”。有的同学因记忆力较差,就在教师教新单词前提前预习,做到笨鸟先飞。于是全班记忆单词的能力有了很大的提高。下面是我在一个班做的实验结果。五年级刚学英语时,全班58人,教一个新单词,一次就通过的, 32人,占全班55%;两次通过的,16人;占全班28%;三次以上通过的,10人,占全班17%;到了六年级,同样教一个新单词,一次通过的,48人,占全班的83%;两次通过的,8人,占全班15%;三次以上通过的,2人,占全班2%。由此可见,把竞争机制引入课堂,激发了学生的兴趣和求胜的欲望,确实起到了良好的效果。 三、注意关心差生,对他们加以个别辅导 每次单词测试结果,必然会产生个别“记忆力弱者”,他们会有种自卑感。教师应正面引导,对他们要有耐心,单独地进行补缺补差,同时要求好的同学多多帮助差生,使

高中英语教学论文 当前中学英语课堂教学中存在的主要问题及对策

当前中学英语课堂教学中存在的主要问题及对策 中学英语课堂教学是提高学生学习英语兴趣的重要途径,也是提高英语教学质量的关键。教师在课堂上如何教,学生在课堂上怎样学,一直是研究者探讨的重要问题。近年来,中学英语课堂教学经过了改革和总结,收到了较好的效果,但目前还存在不少的问题,就这些问题我进行了分析探讨,并有针对性地提出解决问题的对策,以求教于同行者。 一、中学英语课堂教学存在的主要问题 1 、填鸭式。有些教师上课时滔滔不绝,黑板写得满满的,学生不停地记笔记。这种满堂灌、填鸭式的教法带来很多弊病。教师讲得过多,他所能提供给学生独立掌握知识、主动训练能力的机会就越少,学生常处于被动位置,没有时间及时思考、消化、吸收,所学知识当然没法巩固。再有,讲得过多,重点不突出,学生掌握不了要领,课堂气氛也沉闷,学生客易产生疲劳。 2 、陈旧式。有些教师上课停留在原始的教学状态中,没有语音室,没有幻灯片,没有电脑等现代化的手段来辅助教学,甚至连录音机都少用,从始至终都只靠教师讲述,根本提不起学生学习的兴趣。 3 、应试式。学生参加中考和高考,只有笔试,不考核学生的听说能力。为了适应学生答卷的要求,很多教师不注重听说训练,学生满脑子装的全是语法、句型和条条框框,听说能力很差。 4 、厌学式。学生学习死记硬背,有些学生甚至不识音标,不会拼读单词。往往按照单词的字母顺序,象读电话号码那样反复背诵、书写生词。结果,学生的“ 努力学习” 收不到应有的成效,学过的单词念不准,新的单词不会念,加上作业过多,越学越吃力,就会在心理上产生害怕、厌恶甚至抵触的情绪。 5 、母语式。有些老师较多地利用母语教学,把英语课变成汉语课。在初一外语教学中,由于教学内容浅,容易听得懂,易于用直观手段进行教学,不必处处借助母语翻译。但在初中阶段,一些教师还习惯用母语来讲授和解释,学习外语的气氛还没有较好地形成。

高中英语教学论文8篇 第一篇 一、激发学生的学习兴趣 高中英语教师可以利用有效提问的方式提高学生的学习兴趣。教师要善于在教学中找到学生感兴趣的点,进行发散性、层次性、趣味性、探究性提问,让学生集中注意力,对问题材料进行感知、思考和想象,加强对问题的思考、分析和总结,进而提高学习效果。此外,在提问的过程中,教师可以通过与学生的互动,得到一定的有用信息,对教学进度、步骤等的安排给出了指导性意见。高中英语教师可以创设教学情境,激发学生的学习兴趣。英语是一门语言性学科,能够被运用到生活实践中来,将教学情境融入到课堂教学中,不仅可以提高学生的学习兴趣,还可以提高学生的语言运用能力。但是,在创设教学情境的时候教师应该注意学生的心理特征、认知水平和教学内容,创设学生感兴趣,能理解,与教学内容相关的情境。 二、实施个性化教学 新课程标准下的高中英语教学应该是面向全体学生的,但是,因为每一个学生的学习能力、语言水平、认知结构、性格特征等都不一样,统一化的教学不仅很难激发每一个学生的兴趣,而且很难促进每一个学生学习能力的提升。因此,高中教师应该立足于学生的具体情况,结合教学大纲的要求实施分层教学与个性化教学,促进每一个学生都学有所成。首先,教师应该对学生实行合理分层。例如,根据学生的英语基础水平、学习能力因素进行分层,可以将学生分成英语基础水平较高、学习能力较强的A类学生,英语基础水平一般、学习能力一般的B类学生和英语基

础书评较差、学习能力较差的C类学生,此外还应该在每一个学生中按照性格进行再分类,以便 在教学中实施个性化教学。其次,对教学目标进行分层。根据学生分层情况和教学大纲的要求, 进行目标分层,如基础性目标、提高性目标和拓展性目标等。再次,对课堂教学内容进行分层。 在课堂教学中,为了满足所有层次学生的需求,可以实行课前预习、课后作业分层的策略,并在 课堂中成立互帮互助小组、不同层次学生回答不同问题、不同层次学生进行不同的情景对话等方式,充分照顾到每一个学生。 三、引导学生合作交流 英语是一门语言性学科,实践性非常强,只有让学生在语言交流实践中才能提高学生综合运 用语言的水平。随着经济全球化的发展,提高学生的英语合作交流能力已经成为了新课程标准的 教学目标之一。通过合作交流学习,实行师生互动、生生互动,学生可以在交互交流中运用语言 知识、促进语言知识的学习,也能活跃课堂气氛,提高教学质量。 首先,教师要指导学生进行合理分组,根据学生的兴趣爱好、知识水平、特长缺点等实际情 况分成实力相当、优势互补的小组,建立起良好的合作氛围和竞争氛围。其次,教师要充分发挥 引导者的作用,在交流合作的前期引导学生进行主题、内容和形式进行设计,发挥学生的主观能 动性,并在课堂合作交流中放手让学生进行小组合作交流,教师仅进行必要的查看和指导。再次,在小组合作交流中,教师要对学生的合作能力进行指导,教学生学会倾听、积极表达自己观点、 善于总结和归纳、学会分工配合等,进而为合作交流效果的提升做好铺垫。最后,在小组合作交

高中英语词汇教学论文

高中英语词汇教学论文 1.词汇教学与语音教学相结合 英语是有声的,要想使学生通过听觉神经在大脑皮层建立鲜明正确的条件反射,把单词记住,就必须在教学的基础阶段把读音读准确,这是学生记住单词的首要条件。例如:full [ful]满的,fool [fu:l]傻瓜;eyes[aiz]眼,ice[ais]冰。因此,在高中词汇教学过程中,教师仍然有必要重视语音教学,要纠正学生中错误的发音,要帮助学生正确朗读每一个新出现的单词。正确发音还有利于学生正确拼写单词。英语是一种拼音文字,它的发音与拼写之间有着非常的联系。所以,我们有必要给这样的同学讲授英语单词拼写与发音之间的内在联系,帮助他们科学记忆,提高记忆效果。 2.词汇教学与构词法相结合 英语词汇量虽然大,但它本身却有其内在的规律可循。掌握基本的构词法将会大大有助于突破记忆单词的难关。构词法通常有转化、派生、词缀等可帮助学生掌握单词,如:rebuild , reread, recover, dislike, discover, beautiful, successful, wireless, homeless等许多单词。转化法则可以帮助学生扩大词汇的使用功能,如map, book, head, dirty, warm, cool等名词、形容词均可以转化为动词使用。合成法也可以帮助学生掌握诸如classmate, classroom, football, volleyball, baseball等大量单词。为此,在词汇教学中,我们必须向学生介绍构词法的基本知识。

3.在语境中教会学生以词造句,以句固词 众所周知,孤立的东西不容易记忆。要有效地掌握词汇,就应该将词汇与句子、语篇结合起来,培养学生直接用英语思维,力求生动形象,以帮助学生记忆单词。单词离不开句子,教学时,我一直把单词放在句子中,学生能更快更好地掌握。例如单词skirt,我要求学生用它来造句,规定所造的句子不能重复。学生们的句子此起彼伏:“i have a red skirt.”“my skirt is colorful.”“how much is that skirt?”…“look at that shirt,which is very nice. ”随着我的一次次表扬、鼓励:“very good!”“ great!”“excellent!”学生情绪激昂,思维快速,达到了理想的效果。但是对于高中学生来说这远远是不够的,在词汇与句子结合的基础上,我们还应该将词汇、句子与语篇相结合,进一步扩大词汇的交流功能。每学完一个对话、一篇文章后,我还时常让学生复述或自编对话,复述背诵课文或进行相关的写作练习。将词汇与句子,语篇相结合,不仅能帮助学生巩固词汇,而且能提高学生学习词汇的兴趣,发展学生运用语言的能力,达到学好英语的目的。 4.及时复习,及时巩固,加深记忆 经过前面三个阶段后,学生基本能够掌握单词的基本意思和形态特征了,但这仅仅是暂时性的短暂记忆。因此,组织学生及时复习,及时巩固尤为重要。复习首先要“趁热打铁”,不能延缓复习。其次要注意经常性,做到“学而时习之”。为了提高复习效果,复习

英语教育教学论文 导读:关于英语教育教学论文1 《语言操练提高小学英语教学研究》 摘要:英语教学的总体目标是使学生形成初步的综合语言运用能力,这一目标的实现并不是教师可以直接传授的,而是需要学生在丰富的语言实践活动中不断内化与提升。我们的小学英语教学要为学生设计丰富的语言操练活动,让学生在实践中运用,这样才能促进学生语言水平的提高,实现课堂教学效益的最大化。 关键词:小学英语;语言操练;教学效益 英语是一门语言,是一门工具课,听说读写是英语的四项基本技能,而要提高学生的听说读写技能,让学生真正地掌握这门语言,最重要的途径就是操练。只有为学生提供更多语言操练的机会,让学生有更多运用的空间,学生才能不断地将所学过的词汇与语法用于日常的交流与交际之中,这样才能促进学生听说读写技能的全面发展。那么如何在有效的时间内开展多样的语言操练,以此来激发学生参与交流的主动性,促进学生语言水平的整体提高呢?在具体的教学中我主要从以下几个方面着手展开: 一、朗读短文 朗读是英语学习的重要内容与方法,是以模仿与记忆为主的控制性反复练习,利于学生形成正确的语言习惯,适用于低段英语教学。 1.齐声朗读。

在新授知识后让学生跟着教师或是跟着录音进行齐声朗读,在全班展开,这样可以形成相对活跃与宽松的教学氛围,实现全体学生的全员参与。为了让学生更加积极地参与其中,教师要善于运用新的教学方法,如可以利用现代信息技术来图文并茂地展现短文,再配以标准而优美的音频,让学生可以深刻地体会到语言的变化,这样更能激起学生参与朗读的积极性。缺点在于会使部分学生混于其中。 2.个别朗读。 即实现教学面对学生个体。这样可以做到教学无遗漏,让每个学生都有语言操练的机会,教师可以具体地了解每个学生的发音情况,以便于纠正,便于展开有针对性的指导。如可以让学生在同桌之间或前后桌之间展开,也可以开火车的形式展开,即让学生按照座位的顺序逐个朗读。 二、即兴发言 小学生虽小,但是有着不同的生活经验,有着独立的思想与不同的看法,要真正实现以学生为中心,就必须要改变以往快节奏的灌输,而是要适当放慢脚步,利用教学的间隙时间来引导学生进行即兴发言,这样才能让教学处于不断的动态生成中,使之成为学生自己的学堂,同时这也正是进行语言操练的重要活动。例如,课堂导入可以由教师指定话题,然后让学生来进行即兴发言,围绕着特定的主题展开自由而轻松的会话,从而将教学引向具体的.教学内容。这样就可以改变 直接进入新知学习的枯燥性与突兀性,让学生在轻松活跃的氛围下进

浅谈小学英语单词游戏教学(论文)-曾玉洁

浅谈小学英语单词游戏教学 基渡村完小曾玉洁小学英语教学中,单词教学是必不可少的一个重要环节。由于小学生年龄小,好玩,再加上名族学生发音困难,因此,几乎所有的小学生一提起英语单词,就感到很头痛。这就要求教师注意教学方法,充分调动学生的学习积极性,把单词教学贯穿到娱乐之中,使学生学起来不感到枯燥、乏味,激发他们的学习兴趣,使他们每个人的学习才能得以充分发挥。 下面我就说说我的一些做法: (一)巧用实物及图片,加强词汇教学的直观性。 直观化教学有助于学生把英语单词同实物或情景直接联系,增 强语言的真实性、形象感,易于调动和保持学生的学习兴趣。特别 是对于英语学习初级阶段的学生,采用直观教学,使学生一开始就 把实物或动作与英语直接联系起来,获得一个直观印象。例如,在 教学PEP小学英语第一册Unit 1 Hello 单元的 book, ruler, pen, pencil, pencil-case, bag, crayon, sharpener 等学习用品时,向学生展示一种物品说 This is a...(It is a ...), 再出示同一 类物品说 This is a ...(It is a ...),too. 学生在直观的教学 条件下很容易将所学物品与其相应英文单词的听、说、读、写对让号,从而激发了他们学习所熟悉物品英语文称呼的兴趣,也密切了 单词与实物的联系,调动学生学习主动性,使他们全身心地投入学习,强化记忆。

(二)寓教于学,让学生“动”起来 好动是小学生的天性。在课堂里,我喜欢把符合小学生身心发展特点的肢体活动融入到英语学习中,将会受到很好的教学效果。例在教义务教科书3年级上册Unit3 Look at me eye(s), ear(s), nose, mouth, arm(s), hand(s), leg(s), face的时候,我先教一个单词的读音,接着把这个单词融入一个祈使句当中,然后根据这个祈使句的意思配上动作(如:Close your eyes!闭上你的眼睛!Touch your ears!摸摸你的耳朵!Open your mouth!张开你的嘴巴!)。学生一边模仿教师的动作,一边理解单词和句子的意思。最后我让学生随着节奏很强的音乐,边说英语,边做动作。这样,学生的兴趣来了,也兴高采烈地跟着我动起来了,对单词的印象就更深了。 (三)创设情景,让学生“演”起来 情景教学就是在课堂教学中创设具体场景,激发学生的学习热情,引导他们从整体上理解和运用所学语言。表演法不但有助于学生理解教材内容,还可以培养学生的表演才能,塑造儿童良好的性格品质。根据学生的特点,采用表演的模式,可以使学生乐在其中。 例如在学习Unit four we love animals时,要学习小动物的名字Pig,bear,cat,duck,dog等,我首先模仿动物的声音,然后让学生猜是哪种小动物,接着再教单词。所有小动物的单词教完后,用上What is it?句型,同桌,小组之间表演,提问回答。 采用情景教学的方式既激发了学生学习的主动性,活跃了课堂气氛,又启发了学生的思维,拉近了课本语言知识与学生生活的距离,加深了学生对所学语言知识的理解。 (四)寓学于唱,让学生“跳”起来 利用歌曲学习语言能提高学生的学习兴趣,增强其记忆力,减轻其学习负担,激发其成就感,为其学习英语创造和谐、愉快的环境。在小学阶段采用教唱英语歌曲的方法引导学生学习英语无疑是符合 儿童心理发展规律的。例如做字母游戏时,我一边播放音乐,一边和学生一起做下列动作):

对新高中英语教材的新探索一、引言 现如今,倡导“素质教育、培养学生的创新精神和实践能力”的新一轮的教学改革正在全国各地如火如荼地进行着;2003年秋季教育部又开始在全国各地颁布执行新的教学大纲和与之相配套的以话题为形式、功能与结构相结合的“任务型”新教材。该教材要求课堂以结构和功能为主线,组织学生进行听、说、读、写的活动。教材要求教师教学应该以启发启发学生思考为主,提倡创新,给学生思维和想象的空间。在培养听、说、读、写等各项能力的基础上,着力提高学生分析和解决问题的能力,以培养学生英语的综合能力作为主要目标。新的教材和课程不仅要求教师向学生传授知识,更要面授记忆,提高学生的英语应用的能力。因此,教师有必要对课堂上的教学内容、教学效果、学生反应等一系列的教学环节进行系统的思维创新,才能及时发现学生学习中的困难和教学过程中的不足,才能提高课堂质量,提高学生的英语能力,探索出一条适应新教材的要求和学生特点的全新教学模式。 二、教学理念的反思 面对新教材,首先思想观念要转变,有了新的观念才能接受新事物。才能避免“穿新鞋,走老路”;新课程的实施不能简单地被视为换一个大纲、换一套教材、调整一些课程内容。在语言环境的欠缺中不仅要崇尚“苦读”、“勤教”,更要以人为本;对学生“乐学”的潜能大力的开发,英语教学过程既重视语法和词汇知识的讲解与传授,更要对学生实际语言运用能力的培养。这样才能使教学观念与新课程标准要求相适应。因此,要突出“以学生为主体”的思想,教师在教学活动中要做到: 1 .培养学生自我激励学习动机。学生英语学习动机对学习兴趣的形成起着积极的促进作用,它是促进学生学习兴趣形成的基本条件。学习英语的兴趣越浓,学习的积极性就越高,学习

英语教学论文教学方法论文:在中学英语教学中如何实施素 质教育 摘要:英语教学是实施素质教育的关键环节。它有利于激发学生学习英语的兴趣和积极性,提高英语整体素质。要实现中学英语教学的目的和要求必须通过素质教育来实现,本文从转变教育观念,改进教学方法,创设交际情境,培养学生交际能力,提高教师的综合素质,提高学生人文素质,加强德育渗透和加强课外活动几个方面就如何在中学英语教学中实施素质教育进行了粗略的阐述。 关键词:英语教学素质教育教学方法因材施教 中学英语教学的目的是使学生获得运用英语的能力,激发学生的学习兴趣,培养学生的自学能力,发展学生的思维能力和创新能力,使学生受到思想品德,爱国主义和社会主义方面的教育。而要达到上述目的和要求就必须通过素质教育来实现。如何在英语课堂中实施素质教育从而提高学生的整体素质,这是摆在我们每一位中学英语教师面前的一个重大课题,需要我们去研究,思考和解决。 一、转变教育观念是在中学英语教学中实施素质教育的前提 我国现代化建设在很大程度上取决于国民素质的提高和人才资源的开发,国民素质的提高必须依靠教育来实现,这就要求我们必须依靠发展教育尤其是素质教育才能完成

这个任务。当今世界科学技术突飞猛进,国力竞争日趋激烈,只有实施素质教育才能迎接科技的挑战。教育观念对教育工作具有总体的指导意义,因此我们必须转变教育观念。长期以来,我国的中学英语教学一直受到“应试教育”的影响,课堂教学中“注入式”,“填鸭式”现象普遍,严重存在“重知识传授,轻能力培养”的倾向,因此我们要树立现代教育观念,特别是树立与素质教育相适应的教训观,师生观,人才观,教育质量观。 二、提高教师的综合素质是在中学英语教学中实施素质教育的关键 素质教育对教师的素质提出了新的要求,教师素质的高低直接影响着教育质量,教师要勇于革故鼎新,不断更新教学理念,改进教学方法。课堂上尽量用英语组织教学,不用或少用母语,为学生学习创设较为真实的语言环境。教师要认真钻研教材,设计和组织课堂教学时,尽量采用任务型教学 方法,注意突出学生的主体地位,让学生自己把握学习的主 动权,充分发挥学生的潜在能力,全面提高他们运用英语进 行交际的能力,增强他们的语言素质。 在英语教学中,教师的语言素质,尤其是口语的能力要求愈来愈高,所以教师必须具有准确的语音语调和良好的运用英语组织课堂教训的能力。要能够时刻为学生创造运用英语的氛围,积极培养学生的应用学习兴趣和英语语感。教师

小学英语论文:浅谈小学英语音标教学的重要性

浅谈小学英语音标教学的重要性 摘要:对于部分学生,特别是农村地区的学生来说学习英语真是举步维艰。教师也是一味地带读,学生跟读,导致了学生只会机械地记忆单词,而不是真正地学习。这样的英语教学注定是枯燥无味的。这更凸显了音标教学的重要性。音标是英语语言的基础。学好音标有助于为英语学习打下良好的基础。学生可以通过音标自己尝试读单词,并根据音标轻松记忆单词,这就提高了学生自主学习英语的能力。 关键词:音标,重要性,单词,学习兴趣,自主学习 引言: 小学阶段的英语教学是建立学生学习英语兴趣的关键期。要学好英语就要打好基础,而音标教学就是英语教学的基础。我们教师应该认识到音标教学的重要性。俗话说“授之以鱼,不如授之以渔”,在小学英语学习中,老师单纯地教小学生读英语,就是“授之以鱼”,而教给学生音标,就相当于“授之以渔”。因为教会学生音标就是教会了他们读英语的基本方法,从而使他们在没有教师领读的情况下,由被动学习转变成主动学习,培养他们独立自主的学习能力。[1] 人教PEP版英语课本中,从三年级开始就开辟了音标的教学板块。最初让学生通过听、跟读然后吟唱简单的辅音音标,到高年级通过海伦音标教学视频让学生学习音标发音方法与口型。编者将所有的音标都穿插进了每一单元的教学中,只要教师坚持认真教学每一单元音标,日积月累,学生在英语学习中必定有很大的收获,而非三年的学习后给英语贴上枯燥无味的标签。 小学英语音标教学的现状 目前,在许多的小学英语课堂上,音标的教学是不容乐观的。教师只注重英语知识的传授,而忽略了学生语言技能的学习。教师将教学重心放在词汇与简单句子的教学中,对于语音音标的教学重视太少。在词汇教学时,教师们也习惯于一遍一遍地领读新单词,学生机械地跟读,整个单词教学中学生没有独立拼读单词的能力。有的学生为了能记住单词的读音,就不得不用汉字和汉语拼音帮助记忆,书上记得密密麻麻。这种方法严重影响了他们的正确发音。这种不正确的读音还会导致英语听力差。学生不会说也听不懂英语。长此以往,学生将不会对这

新课标下的高中英语写作教学英语教学论文 《普通高中英语课程标准(实验)》对高中学生的英语写作有明确的要求:①能根据所读文章进行转述或写摘要;②能根据文字及图表提供的信息写短文或报告;③能写出语意连贯且结构完整的短文,叙述事情或表达观点和态度;④能在写作中做到文体规范、语句通顺。《课标》既强调了对学生写作能力方面的要求,又强调了对外交流信息,表达观点和态度等方面的要求。 但是,我国目前高中英语教学往往忽视“写”这一环节的有效训练。现行教材越来越重视“听、”“说”的训练,对“写”的内容安排相对较少,且缺乏相应的指导。很多教师在英语教学中疲于赶进度,无暇顾及写作这一费时又费力的教学活动,或把教学重点放在语言知识方面,一味地在语言形式上下工夫,对学生进行孤立、繁琐和机械的字、词、句的讲解与训练。因此,学生普遍缺乏英文写作兴趣,写作能力不高。那么,在新课标下,如何进行高中英语写作教学?笔者于2003年参加了“因能施教”课题的英语写作教学课改,在高中英语写作教学中进行了一些有益的尝试。 一、开发学生的非智力因素,激发学生的写作兴趣 在教学实践过程中,我了解到许多学生对英文写作表现出消极的态度,敷衍了事,有的学生甚至以不会写为借口,拒绝英文写作。要改变这一现象,就必须努力激发学生的写作兴趣。 学生喜欢听流行英文歌曲,我的英文写作就从听写英文歌词开始。例如学生喜欢听“Take Me ToYour Heart”,我就让学生在课堂上多听,并迅速记下歌词,记得最快最好的前3名同学有奖。学生就是在这种快乐的气氛中开始练习写简单的英文句子。 接着对教材进行必要的重组。例如高一第15单元是剧本单元。学生写简单的短文都难,就别提写剧本了。为此,在具体教学中,我根据学生的认知规律和自己的教学思路进行任务重组,创造性地使用教材激活学生的思维。通过任务重组,使学生兴致勃勃地完成了这一单元的写作任务:本单元的第一个任务Warming up,要求学生讨论图片中的故事及情节发展,想象编故事,然后将所编的故事表演出来。学生大多对英语剧本非常陌生,这个任务对他们来说难度较大。根据学生的实际情况,我打破原有体系,进行任务重组。开始的任务是听故事(Listening),让学生反复听一个三幕短剧,提醒学生注意故事的开始、发展,并注意故事悬念的设计(文中没有提供故事的结局)。通过完成听的任务,训练学生有效获取信息、处理信息并根据所掌握的信息,分析问题和处理问题的能力,也使学生对英语剧本有个初步的了解。为了让学生对英语剧本有进一步的了解,我跳过课文中Speaking的创作三个故事的任务,设定第二个任务为Reading,先学“Necklace”的剧本,和学生一起分析人物性格特点,讨论设计故事应有的结尾。通过阅读、讨论和表演,使学生全面地了解英语戏剧体裁。这两个任务的完成,激发了学生对英语剧本的写作和表演的兴趣。接着,我设计的第三个任务是“Writing”,让学生把Warming up和Speaking中给出的四个带有神秘、悬念的情景,自编成剧本并表演。学生以小组为单位任选一个题材,利用课余时间自编、自导、自演。在表演这个环节中,每个学生都有任务。他们集体创作,表演并选派同学作评委,和老师一起评出最佳男、女演员,最佳剧本及最佳合作小组等奖项。这样创造性的重组打破了照本宣科的单调性,教师从学生“学”的角度来设计教学活动,使学生的学习活动具有明确的目标,并构成一个有梯度的连续活动。使学生同时得到听、说、读、写的训练,充分调动了学生积极性,让学生充分享受参与和表演的乐趣及成就感,为课堂注入新鲜的活力,也对学生的自主学习英语产生了积极影响,学生的英文写作兴趣在不知不觉中就被调动起来。 二、加强小组合作学习,提高学生的写作兴趣 “写作不能仅仅理解成个人的行为,因此在教学中不宜总是采取学生单独写出作文来让教师批改的模式,而应该提倡学生开展两人或数人小活动,通过讨论合作完成写作”(刘道义,2000)。合作学习是一种策

初中英语教学论文初中英语课堂教学研究(内含6篇)

初中英语课堂教学研究6篇 第一篇 一、营造和谐氛围,激发学生兴趣 教师可以在平时多搜集一些简短的英文趣味小故事,用以在英语课堂上活跃氛围,还可以鼓励学生自己利 用课余时间阅读短篇英文文章,定期在课堂上与大家一起分享,这样不仅能让学生在轻松的氛围中尽可能多地接 触英语,还能帮助学生提高读英语的能力。笔者曾让学生在每一堂英语课开始的5分钟内轮流为大家讲简短的英文趣味故事或者是朗声英文诗歌,由于学生都有很多的英文阅读材料,这对他们来说并不难,只是需要他们自信地迈出那一步,并且从容地大声讲出来。在这个过程中,有些学生一开始会表现得很胆怯,笔者总是很耐心地鼓 励他们,并带头给他们鼓掌,这样,学生怯懦的心理一次次得以克服。一段时间的训练后,全班学生基本都能自 信地站在讲台上大声讲英语,有些学生还颇有演讲风范,虽然也还有些学生的发音并不标准,但是他们都非常努力地去改正,因为他们总是希望自己下一次能够表现得更好,能给大家带来更多的欢乐。 二、丰富教学策略,引导自主学习 首先,应当充分重视情境教学在英语课堂教学中的作用,并有效地利用它。在教学英语的过程中,将内容 融入情境能有效地帮助学生“消化”和“吸收”知识。因而,一方面,教师应当尽可能多地创建真实的英语环境,比如,鼓励每一个学生给自己取一个英文名字,并在英语课堂中用英文名字取代中文名字,如果可以,教师还可 以鼓励学生在课余也使用英文名字交流和对话,这样,能够帮助学生更好地融入英文环境,也就更愿意自主地花时间去学习英语。另一方面,教师应当在课堂中尽可能多地创造英文情境。比如,在一次课堂学习时,笔者先播 放一首非常著名的英文歌曲,学生在轻柔婉转的音乐中露出轻轻的微笑,可以看得出来,学生已经进入状态。歌 曲播放完毕,笔者问学生是否都熟悉和喜欢这首歌,学生异口同声地给出肯定的回答,接着,笔者进一步用英语 发问学生都喜欢什么类型的歌曲,这样,课堂教学主题自然就引出来了,通过创设这样的教学情境,学生能够更 好地去“体味”和“享受”英语,在这种轻松而愉悦的情境下,学生思维也能得到更好地发散,这种轻松和愉悦 的情感也能有效地推动学生留意生活中的英语,并乐于自主学习。其次,还应当重视教学策略以及技巧的运用, 帮助学生提高英语学习能力,从而帮助学生更好地自主学习。比如,在教学英语单词过程中,教师可以帮助学生 了解人的记忆规律,让学生基于这一理论来探索适合自己的单词记忆技巧。在笔者引导学生采用“举一反三”、 “联想记忆”以及“卡片法”等方法后,有学生还自创出“晚间学习法”,该学生说有些人(比如他自己)在晚 间的记忆力一般比较好,容易记住单词,他根据这个规律就制定自己的学习计划:晚上睡前将所学单词背一遍, 第二天早晨躺在床上可以回忆自己到底记住了哪些单词,然后再翻书将未记下的单词背一两遍,并且在每周五晚上都要再将一周所学单词复习一遍,第二天早晨再回忆、再记忆,这样,他就能更牢固地记住所学单词。

高中英语词汇教学

高中英语词汇教学与跨文化意识的培养 上海市育才中学张继龙 论文摘要: 高中生词汇量小、搭配贫乏、常常出现误用、错用词语的情况,这是一线教师感觉头痛但又很难解决的问题。深究其原因,笔者认为问题主要是学生的词汇输入模式制约了学生的词汇输出模式,即词汇教学一直在脱离目标语文化的环境下进行。语言、文化、教学的关系已为现今的外语教学所公认,本文从教学一线出发,结合课本素材,探讨课堂词汇教学如何渗透文化意识,以期学生词汇学习的原汁原味和语言运用的完整贴切。 高中词汇教学应特别关注那些概念相同但内涵不同的词语,逐渐养成跨文化意识。除此之外,在词汇教学中加入词汇的社会意义和搭配意义则可以保证学生词汇运用的恰当性,防止学生乱用词语。 关键词: 高中英语;词汇教学;文化意识 一、引言 长期以来,词汇教学都受到诸多关注和重视,但却因为讲解形式单一、操练过程乏味、相互关联缺失、复现率偏低等问题,致使教师和学生都感到厌倦,却又不能置之不理。尽管大量的时间和精力被投放到词汇学习上,可学生的词汇运用能力并不见长,经常看到学生因为词汇运用方面的问题而不能很好地完成简单的阅读和翻译等语言活动。常常表现为单个单词吧,都背了,但放在一定的语境中却不能正确理解;看似简单的翻译练习,却无法用地道的英语来表达,要么用错词、要么用词不当,更不用说在写作时出现的大量中式英语了。词汇输入模式的局限性影响了学生对于词汇文化因素的吸收,从而造成了许多学习者词汇理解及使用上的偏差,影响了跨文化交际能力的提高。 上海市二期课改明确提出,英语语言教学需开拓学生的国际视野、培养跨文化意识,尊重异域文化和习俗,形成开放包容的情感态度和价值观念。语言是文化的载体,而词汇又是语言的基本构成要素。中西方文化差异在词汇层面上体现的非常突出,涉及的面也最为广泛。了解词汇层面上的中西方文化差异既有助于

小学英语单词教学论文

单词教学趣味谈 一口流利的英语离不开大量的词汇积累。由此可见,掌握一定数量的词汇是学好英语的基础。否则,对话教学及句子教学都无法顺利进行。语言的学习是在不断操练和积累中发展起来的。单凭反复机械的操练只会降低学习者的热情。俗话说得好:兴趣是最好的老师。在教学实践中,我们得不断摸索如何使单词教学活泼、生动、富有趣味的路子。 一、在唱歌中学单词。 如今,英语教学法可谓是流派纷呈。其中“唱歌学习法”深厚广大学习者的喜爱,实践也证明了这种学法效果的优异。对于小孩子,唱唱跳跳是他们的天性。在单词教学中,要充分挖掘并利用学生的潜能,带领孩子们进入有音乐的单词天地,学生个个其乐融融。。 二、在顺口溜中学单词。 中国是诗歌的王国。中国人天生有着对诗歌琅琅上口的节奏感。小学英语非常注重知识的板块性,每一单元的单词都属于同一系列。这种编排对老师渗透新的语言知识点很有好处。在教学中,尝试把每一单元的单词串联起来,编成一个顺口溜,便于学生记忆和朗读。如,教Animals时,编的顺口溜是:猫儿cat 爱吃鱼,猴儿monkey爱吃桃,小鸟bird天上飞,小狗dog地上跑,老虎tiger 兽中王,熊猫panda是国宝,大象elephant大力士。又如教学Colours时顺口溜是:红色red红旗摇,白色white白云飘,绿色green绿油油,蓝色blue天蓝蓝,黄色yellow黄香蕉,黑色black黑煤炭,橙色orange象橘子,棕色brown 象咖啡。另外,还把比较容易混淆的词组编成顺口溜。如:叮叮当,闹钟响,get up,get up快起床,背上书包go to school,see you,byebye 说再见,赶快回家go home,想要睡觉go to bed,道声晚安good night. 三、在游戏中学单词。 英语新课程强调要求学生在做中学,在玩中用。这样有利于发展语言运用的能力,有利于提高语言学习的动机。在教学中,尤其是在巩固环节或检复环节,经常带学生开展各种游戏。如在教学食物时,可把各种食物放入一个不透明的袋子中,一起玩“Touch and guess”的游戏,猜对者将把食物奖赏给他。在有食物奖赏的刺激下,学生的学习热情异常积极。几分钟游戏下来,学生既玩得开心,8种食物单词也已经扎根大脑了。又如,在教玩食物单词后,我故意摸着肚子说:“Today everyone has many delicious foods.I’m very hungry.”通过体态语,学生也已明白老师此时的肚子很饿,纷纷举出自己的食品或饮料说:“Miss Xiao,some cakes?”“Some coffee?”等,真诚的问候帮助学生巩固了新知识,也很好地交流和巩固了师生间的感情。 四、在对比中学单词。
