On how to infiltrate environmental education into English teaching in primary schools
English is a practical subject, which requires teachers not to confine themselves to language education, but to regard it as an organic part of social education. Therefore, as an English teacher, we should focus on the relationship between human beings and the environment, attach importance to environmental education, and adopt the infiltration mode according to the knowledge and characteristics of this subject, that is, "silence" in the process of education implementation, and be good at using every opportunity to spread relevant environmental knowledge to students, strengthen their environmental awareness and help them establish correct environmental values.

First, excavate the educational factors in the teaching materials and infiltrate environmental education.

It is an effective way to carry out environmental education in subject teaching based on the teaching content in textbooks. The English textbook of Guangdong Education Edition has its own teaching unit directly oriented to environmental education. For example, the third and fifth units of the first volume of the fifth grade are all about environmental education. For example, "We can't pick flowers" teaches students to love plants and the surrounding public facilities and environment. "Don't feed animals in the zoo" teaches students to care about animals in the zoo, and there are many dialogues between people who describe lovely animals and plants and care for the beautiful environment. These are all good themes to cultivate students' love for nature and beautiful environment. In teaching, we should try our best to explore the educational factors in the teaching materials, find out the combination points related to environmental education while teaching English language knowledge, appropriately broaden and deepen, and carry out environmental education in combination with reality.

Second, the use of classroom teaching as the main channel to infiltrate environmental education

For primary school students, classroom teaching has the characteristics of many opportunities and strong attraction. The ideas and contents of environmental education contained in the subject can be reflected through classroom teaching, thus stimulating students' feelings of loving nature and establishing the belief that environmental protection should start from small things and start from the side. Based on the classroom, the relevant contents in the subject textbooks are used to carry out targeted environmental science knowledge infiltration education for students, so as to continuously enhance students' environmental awareness.

1, activity infiltration in class

Teachers can design classroom task activities such as singing, discussion, games, performance and investigation when teaching texts with the theme of environmental protection. Singing in class is a good opportunity to infiltrate environmental education. For example, in the classroom introduction of "They are going to the zoo" and "They are visiting the zoo", let students sing children's English songs about animals. Students quickly concentrate on the cheerful music melody, initially perceive the learning content of this lesson, and feel the beauty of flowers and plants, the cuteness of animals and the importance of environmental protection in the songs. Don't use language to pick flowers. Organize students to discuss in groups what we can and can't do in the park, and then fill in the form. In this way, students can not only train their oral expression ability, but also strengthen their awareness of protecting the beautiful natural environment.

2. Language infiltration in the classroom:

Students pay attention in class, and teachers should seize all available knowledge points and infiltrate environmental education with language. When they clean up everything, we should educate students in simple language to respect laborers' labor and protect the environment. When we teach Unit 6 phrases such as sweeping the floor, cleaning the room, washing clothes and gardening, we should educate students to be hygienic, love labor and make contributions to beautifying the environment.

Third, combine extracurricular activities and infiltrate environmental education.

1, combined with operation

In environmental education for primary school students, we should also pay attention to practicality and participation. The forms of environmental education in subject teaching can be varied, and the idea of environmental education can be infiltrated through various forms of homework, so that students can develop their English ability and establish environmental awareness at the same time.
