How do I teach English verbs
Chen Juxiang, from No.553500 Middle School in Guanping Town, Panxian County, Guizhou Province, found that although most students worked hard, their knowledge was not satisfactory, and most of them had a little knowledge, especially the teaching of English verbs and voices. Many students often write sentences without verbs because they don't have a good grasp of the tense and voice of English verbs. So many students often joke about Chinglish. After years of teaching exploration and experience accumulation, I found that if junior high school students want to learn English well, English verbs must be taught well and students should use them flexibly. Now I will talk about some successful teaching experiences based on my own teaching experience. Firstly, English verb teaching is introduced into classroom teaching. Think about it. When we guide students to learn the texts in Chinese textbooks, in order to make students master the Chinese knowledge they have learned within the prescribed plan, teachers will use methods such as revealing topics to stimulate students' desire for knowledge, introduce new class teaching and guide students to learn step by step. Similarly, in English verb teaching, in order to teach English verbs to students in an easy-to-understand way and let them apply what they have learned, before teaching English verbs, we can briefly introduce the differences between English and Chinese sentences with examples, and draw a conclusion through examples: English sentences generally cannot be without predicate verbs (except special sentence patterns). If an English sentence has no predicate verb, it's just like a person without a heart. Therefore, predicate verbs are the core of English sentences. In order to write touching English sentence patterns and English compositions, we must learn the usage of English verbs well. Second, the classification of English verbs Teaching English verbs can be divided into seven categories according to their meaning and usage, namely, notional verbs, relational verbs, modal verbs, finite verbs, dynamic verbs and auxiliary verbs. 1. notional verbs. It is the largest category of English verbs and has its own meaning. It can be used as a predicate independently in sentences (including tense verbs and modal verbs, etc.). ), such as playing, thinking and walking. He likes reading story books. Like and read are notional verbs. 2. Transitive verbs and intransitive verbs. Verbs can be divided into transitive verbs (with objects) and intransitive verbs (without objects) according to whether they are followed by objects. For example, everyone laughs, and laugh has no object and is an intransitive verb; He bought a dictionary (he bought a dictionary), and buy took an object as a transitive verb. 3. Modal verbs. Modal verbs can not be independent predicates, but can only be with active words, indicating that the tone and modality of speech have no change in person and number. The modal verbs that junior middle school English textbooks require students to master are may, can, will, shall, must and so on. 4. Auxiliary verbs. Auxiliary verbs, as the name implies, are auxiliary verbs. 5. Finite verbs and non-finite verbs. Verbs can be divided into finite verbs and non-finite verbs according to whether they are restricted by the subject or not. Finite verbs can be used as predicates in sentences, and non-finite verbs don't have to be predicates. Infinite verbs include infinitive, gerund and participle. He likes English and like is a finite verb. His wallet was stolen on the bus. Stocked is an indefinite verb. 6. Dynamic verbs and static verbs. According to the characteristics of word meaning, verbs can be divided into dynamic verbs and static verbs. Dynamic verbs mainly refer to actions, while static verbs mainly refer to verbs such as inner feelings, inner activities, feelings and relationships. I worked there for five years, and work is a static verb. 7. Continuing verbs and non-continuing verbs. According to whether the action continues or not, verbs can be divided into continuation verbs and non-continuation verbs. It rains on rainy days (rainy days), and rain is a continuation verb. He left here three days ago. leave is a discontinuous verb. Third, the tense of verbs and the tense grammatical phenomenon of verbs in phonetic English. For China students who grew up imperceptibly in the Chinese environment, it is really impossible to master or even use them flexibly without the guidance of tutors and examples, because Chinese has no tense changes. In view of this special grammatical difference, in teaching practice, I have realized a teaching method that can help junior high school students learn verb tenses and moods-comparing images with examples. When I was teaching "Verb Tense and Mood" in English class, I gave an example to my students: You often watch TV dramas or news from western countries on TV. Have you ever found that when westerners express things in language, their pronunciations are different from those in China, and they are constantly accompanied by gestures, and even their facial expressions are very happy? Compared with the expression of China people, it's a bit exaggerated. Look at their clothes, it is even more novel, even the way of eating is very different, it is really impossible to say the same thing. In fact, the changing law of their language is also closely related to their living habits. As far as the verb "play" is concerned, it doesn't need any special dress when it meets anyone at present, but when it meets he (he) or s He (she), it has to add the tail "S" as a special dress to welcome the distinguished guests. In the past tense, it is changed to another kind of welcome clothes, that is, the tail of "S" is changed to "ED"; In the future tense, it no longer uses "ed" as its tail, but wears a hat "will" to form a "will play" structure; More interestingly, in the present continuous process, its clothing suddenly became "be playing". The whole has a head and a tail, which is extremely decent. Students, think about it. The language of westerners is as colorful as their life. If you don't believe me, it will be interesting to sum it up again. Learning their language tenses should also be closely related to their expressive tone. Now you try. Did you get some inspiration from it? Students at the same table or at the front and back tables can talk to each other about their findings and let everyone share your success, ok? I use this image contrast teaching method to realize the teaching task of "verb tense and mood" in English textbooks. In my classroom teaching atmosphere, students are relaxed and happy, master the content of this lesson as scheduled, and then use it satisfactorily, and their academic performance is increasing day by day.
