First, explore the moral education factors in teaching materials and find the combination of ideological education and knowledge and ability training.
Educator Herbart believes that "the highest and ultimate goal of teaching is contained in this concept-virtue". This sentence tells the true meaning of all teaching. Traditional English education has separated the connection between English education and moral education, neglected the improvement of ideological and moral quality, and failed to achieve the goal of cultivating future talents with both ability and political integrity. As a young teacher, while grasping the content of the textbook, we should also think about how to use the content of the textbook and seize the opportunity to infiltrate the students with moral education. I have been teaching for eight years and summarized the following points to share with you.
1, combined with the most commonly used English polite expressions, conduct polite education for students.
Start with the simplest and most commonly used spoken language. Intermediate workers in our school generally have a poor English foundation. According to their actual situation, they usually speak some of the simplest spoken English in class. As mentioned in "Thanks"
You! This is the most common polite expression. Teachers can focus on cultivating students' good habits and always remind them that if you accept help from others, you should say "thank you".
You! "; Say "thank you! "When accepting compliments from others. ; Say "thank you! "When accepting gifts from others. Even your own parents won't forget to say "thank you"
You! "。 Because only by being grateful for life at all times can we truly feel spiritual satisfaction and happiness.
2. Make use of traditional festivals and organize activities to carry out moral education throughout.
In the teaching process, teachers can organize some meaningful teaching activities. Making full use of various novel teaching methods and guiding them in a planned way can stimulate students' interest in learning.
In this year's Mother's Day, we broke the traditional teaching methods and organized an event called "Mom! I want to tell you about the activity class and invite my parents to attend. The purpose of this activity class is to make students dare to speak out their thoughts to their parents on the basis of practicing oral English. As we all know, China people are very reserved and even shy when expressing their feelings. Even between mother and child, it is hard to say "I love you!" "In this way, take this activity to guide students to simply express in English what he usually wants to say but is afraid or embarrassed to say to his mother. Through this activity, I found that these adolescent children hope to get more care and understanding from their parents, and hope that their views can be recognized by adults. After participating in this activity, many parents of students also realized the importance of playing the role of children's friends as parents sometimes. As a teacher, I will lose no time to tell my students and parents that they should be good at communicating with each other in the right way and attitude in life.
3. Cleverly use the classic sentences in the text to help students establish a correct outlook on life.
A text in the first volume of Advanced Practical English for Business left a deep impression on me. In America, there was an old woman (Rose). When she was young, she always dreamed of receiving and completing a college education, but for various reasons, her dream never came true. At the age of 87, he finally had a chance to enter the university. Like other young students, the old woman studies hard every day. Because of her age, she spends more time and energy on her studies than normal students. After several years of hard work, she finally passed all the exams and graduated smoothly, but a week after his graduation, she died peacefully in her sleep. Nearly 2000 college students attended her funeral. At his funeral, many people recalled Ross's speech at a party.
"We won't stop playing because we are old; We grow old because
We stopped playing. There are four secrets to staying young and happy.
And succeed. "
"You must laugh and look for humor every day."
"You must have a dream. When you lose your dream, you die.
"There is a big difference between getting old and growing up."
"There is no regret. We old people usually don't
Regret what we have done, but regret what we have done
Didn't do it. The only people who are afraid of death are those
With regret. "
After this class, the students spoke freely and had a heated discussion in class. Some students regret their mediocrity, some students have always been proud of their dreams, and some students feel that they have found the direction of their efforts. This kind of learning can enable students to choose the purpose of life according to their own value standards and strive to realize their own life value in practice.
Second, several principles should be paid attention to in the process of integrating moral education into teaching.
In the process of moral education, we should adhere to several principles: (1) the principle of combining theory with practice. In moral education, teachers should combine the education of ideological and political concepts and moral norms with the practice of participating in social life. Especially for some technical school students who have factory practice experience, this kind of moral education is more convincing and can arouse students' resonance, and the educational effect can be effective. (2) the principle of neat appearance. Moral education should be persuasion-oriented, start with improving students' knowledge level, fully mobilize students' initiative and enthusiasm in learning, and make them study hard, actively and consciously. This requires teachers to have higher theoretical literacy and knowledge level. (3) Strictly demand and respect the principle of combining students. Moral education requires teachers to combine strict requirements for students' thoughts and behaviors with respect and trust for students, and use scientific educational methods such as hope and encouragement to promote the physical and mental health of young students.
In short, in English teaching, teachers should not only teach students English language skills but also pay attention to their ideological and moral education. According to different teaching contents and students at different stages, different moral education methods are adopted to teach and educate people. Only by organically combining learning English with improving ideological quality can students establish and develop a correct world outlook and outlook on life.
