abstract:

Vocabulary teaching is an important part of junior high school English and the basis for students to learn English well. However, due to various reasons, many students often encounter many obstacles in vocabulary learning, which makes it difficult to stimulate their interest and leads to low teaching efficiency. Therefore, teachers should adopt various teaching methods in the teaching process to stimulate students' interest in learning, mobilize students' enthusiasm for learning and improve teaching efficiency.

Key words:

Junior high school English; Vocabulary teaching; teaching means

To master a language, vocabulary is the most basic element. Human activities, communication, etc. It is also realized through sentences composed of vocabulary. Therefore, there is no way to learn a language well without mastering a certain number of words. Therefore, vocabulary plays a very important role in English teaching. Here, the author talks about his own methods in English vocabulary teaching.

First, the intuitive teaching method. The intuitive teaching method is a teaching method using some objects and pictures.

For example, when learning the word "chair", I mean the chair where a student sits in the front row. I will ask myself and answer questions first, and then ask questions after the students are familiar with them. Through such repeated training, students not only master the nature of the word "chair", singular and plural, but also skillfully use it in the process of asking questions from each other. In a word, intuitive teaching is lively and interesting, which can not only create a harmonious teaching atmosphere, but also improve teaching efficiency.

Second, many words in word-formation English are closely related and have quite regular word-formation reasons.

Therefore, in the teaching process, teachers can let students learn vocabulary according to these word-formation rules, and can also quote some related vocabulary to guide students to sum up and discover themselves. In this way, students not only learn quickly, but also cultivate their own abilities. For example, when learning the word care, you can use word formation to deduce beautiful-beautiful-beautiful, which can not only reduce students' memory burden, but also learn the knowledge of word formation.

Third, in the "game" middle school vocabulary game is a kind of teaching form that students love to see and hear, which can stimulate students' interest in learning to a certain extent and effectively improve teaching efficiency.

Playing games in class can help students master some difficult words in relaxing and interesting activities. For example, after learning the names of body parts, you can play Pollysays. Play the game in groups of four, and then let the best students in each group perform in front of the whole class to see who is the best. You can add two new words at a time from the following sentences. The teacher can talk and act, let the students understand the meaning of this sentence first, and then the teacher gives instructions, first the whole class, and then individual students do the action. After repeated exercises, let the students play games in groups. The more sentences you learn, the more exciting the game will be. This kind of game is very interesting for students. Students' enthusiasm is very high. In a few days, they will be able to master all the new words firmly added. In this process, teachers can also guide students to add new words they have learned before, and repeat the game after a while to consolidate what they have learned.

Fourth, creating situations to improve teaching efficiency Situational teaching is an effective teaching method to improve teaching efficiency.

In the teaching process, according to the teaching content and students' cognitive rules, students feel novel, interesting, friendly and natural.

5. Introducing competition mechanism is an effective means to stimulate learning enthusiasm and help improve students' academic performance.

Therefore, it is necessary to create a reasonable competition mechanism, use correct competition means and adopt flexible competition methods. By introducing competition mechanism in the classroom, we can integrate listening, speaking, reading and writing, mobilize students to participate in classroom activities, and cultivate students' team spirit by adopting such ways as teacher-student competition, student-student competition (male-female competition and group competition), individual competition or self-competition. Students' willingness to participate can arouse their enthusiasm and autonomous learning. The competition mechanism is also introduced in the evaluation of students, and a system for checking students' memorization of words is established. The new curriculum standard requires encouraging evaluation of students, so that students can gain self-confidence in learning English. Introduce the competition mechanism, mobilize each student's learning passion, actively participate in the competition, and get high evaluation, so as to achieve the goal. In short, in English teaching, teachers should attach importance to vocabulary teaching and pay attention to the interest and diversity of vocabulary teaching. To make students think hard, teachers should first be diligent in thinking and be brave in innovation. Teachers should constantly improve teaching methods, stimulate students' interest and enthusiasm in learning, update teaching concepts, pay attention to cultivating students' observation ability, memory ability, thinking ability, imagination ability and creativity, and cultivate students' ability to independently analyze and expand their vocabulary, so as to lay a solid foundation for students' English learning in junior high schools in the future.
