Chapter one: A preliminary study of English innovation in primary and secondary schools in the new curriculum reform.
With the development of quality education, English classroom teaching in primary schools should not only cultivate students' listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities, but also cultivate their inquiry learning ability, so that they can effectively master the knowledge in the teaching materials and promote the development of their English quality. In the student-centered English classroom, teachers should give full play to the role of teaching organization and guidance, so that teaching activities can be carried out efficiently in the positive interaction between teachers and students.
First, pay attention to students' emotions and stimulate their learning initiative.
With the development of quality education, in teaching activities, teachers should not only pay attention to students' learning situation, but also pay attention to their emotions, understand their learning attitude, guide students from non-intellectual factors, and make them interested in English learning and actively participate in knowledge exploration. In the communication with students, the relationship between teachers and students has been narrowed, so that students are infected by teachers, actively participate in the exploration of English knowledge, and constantly improve their English learning ability. In classroom teaching, teachers should change their teaching concepts, get rid of traditional teaching, tap the requirements of new curriculum standards, design teaching with innovative ideas, and let classroom teaching proceed at a compact speed with the active participation of students. In the process of new curriculum reform, teachers pay attention to students' emotions, which is conducive to building a new relationship between teachers and students, making students feel trust in teachers and actively exploring the learning tasks assigned by teachers, which is conducive to the smooth progress of classroom teaching. Under the good teacher-student relationship, it is helpful to improve students' enthusiasm for inquiry, so that they can give full play to their independent inquiry ability and actively think about the problems in their study. In the harmonious and relaxed learning process, English learning is no longer the pressure and burden of students, but the fun of learning, which helps to give full play to their learning initiative, meet their learning needs in constant thinking and analysis, and improve their learning ability.
Second, optimize the lead-in link to improve teaching efficiency
Classroom lead-in is very important for successful English teaching. Good classroom lead-in can not only make students concentrate quickly, but also activate their thinking, so that students have a sense of urgency and curiosity about what they want to learn, so as to actively explore the content of classroom learning and achieve good teaching results. In teaching design, teachers should carefully design the classroom lead-in link, let students actively participate in learning, analyze the lead-in link, and promote the development of students' English thinking ability. There are many design methods for the lead-in link. Teachers should take the teaching content as the design basis and flexibly choose the design method, so that the lead-in link can really stimulate students' thirst for knowledge, make them analyze the teaching materials with the purpose of exploring knowledge, and improve their ability to find and solve problems. The design of the lead-in link should meet the students' learning needs, firmly grasp the students' curiosity, and make their active inquiry become a promoting factor for the smooth progress of classroom teaching, so as to realize efficient English classroom teaching.
Third, adopt a variety of teaching methods to improve students' interest in inquiry.
In the process of new curriculum reform, in order to construct innovative teaching mode, teachers should consider students' interests and choose teaching methods according to their cognitive structure and laws, so that classroom teaching content can stimulate students' inquiry and make them actively analyze knowledge. In the process of active inquiry, students have a strong learning purpose, can analyze the contents of teaching materials in a targeted manner, deeply understand and master the difficulties of knowledge, and promote the improvement of English inquiry ability.
1. Stimulate students' inquiry with multimedia teaching *
In teaching, teachers can combine multimedia to create intuitive teaching situations, so that students can learn English knowledge in vivid situations, thus being active in thinking and interested in learning content. Under the guidance of multimedia, through the cooperation of intuitive thinking and abstract thinking, the learning difficulty of students is reduced and the understanding of knowledge is deepened.
2. Perform dialogues to improve students' ability to use English knowledge.
In primary school English textbooks, there are many contents about dialogue. After asking students to explore reading and thinking, teachers should let students play characters and perform dialogues. During the performance, the teacher can ask the students to have a dialogue with the text. After being familiar with the dialogue, let the students put down their textbooks and act out the dialogue according to their own understanding. Performing after leaving the textbook requires students to give full play to their thinking enthusiasm, carefully recall the contents of the textbook and successfully complete the performance activities, so as to deeply understand the contents of the text and learn how to use what they have learned. Through dialogue performance, students' English thinking has been developed, and their imagination and creativity have been improved.
3. Create game activities to stimulate students' enthusiasm for participation.
Teachers can organize students to play games and learn in games according to the teaching content, so as to improve students' interest in learning and enable them to master the teaching materials in depth. In the game session, students' thinking is extremely active. They can use their existing English knowledge to think and analyze quickly and deepen their understanding and mastery of new knowledge.
Fourth, carry out rich English extracurricular activities to improve students' practical ability.
English classroom teaching in primary schools is the basic stage for students to learn English knowledge. In teaching, teachers should pay attention to cultivating students' awareness of using English, and strive to provide them with opportunities to use English knowledge and improve their English listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities. Therefore, teachers can carry out a variety of extracurricular activities according to the English knowledge that students have mastered, so that students can use English knowledge in activities and promote their English thinking ability and English communication ability. For example, teachers can ask students to write handwritten newspapers in English, give full play to the innovative ability of thinking and write creative handwritten newspapers from the interest. In the process of writing handwritten newspaper, in order to improve students' ability to use English knowledge, teachers can ask students to design a special column and put their own short articles to stimulate students' interest in writing in English; Create an English corner for students and provide them with opportunities and places to communicate in English; Ask students to find knowledge written in English in their daily life, such as English signs on packaging boxes and shopping bags. Through colorful extracurricular activities, students have a strong interest in English learning, actively explore knowledge in teaching, constantly broaden their knowledge and master more solid basic English knowledge.
In short, in primary school English teaching, teachers should optimize teaching according to students' interests, let students play their initiative in exploring various teaching links, promote the construction of their knowledge structure, and effectively improve classroom teaching efficiency. In the student-centered classroom teaching, teachers should strengthen the interaction between teachers and students, so that students can master the skills and methods of English learning, so as to effectively master the contents of teaching materials in a limited learning time and realize high-quality and efficient innovative teaching.
Chapter two: Classroom dialogue teaching strategies.
abstract:
With the comprehensive promotion of the new curriculum reform in China, the realization of English teaching with dialogue as the main teaching method has gradually become the ideal teaching method pursued by the front-line teachers of English teaching in primary schools. Dialogue teaching is an important teaching link to cultivate students' communicative competence and stimulate students' interest in learning in primary school English teaching. However, in daily English teaching, teachers pay more attention to the teaching of words and ignore the overall application of dialogue, which cuts off the connection between English words and dialogue to a certain extent and increases the difficulty for students to apply English knowledge to real life. In order to change this situation and improve students' English literacy, this paper will focus on how to carry out dialogue teaching more effectively in primary school English classroom teaching.
Key words:
Primary school English; Dialogue teaching; Strategic investigation
In order to meet the teaching requirements put forward by quality education, many primary school English teachers have begun to innovate and reform English teaching classrooms, among which improving the efficiency and quality of English dialogue teaching is the most important. English dialogue teaching, in short, is that teachers cultivate students' dialogue ability and improve their English dialogue skills through actual English classes, so as to finally help students master and use language skills freely. In primary school English teaching, dialogue teaching is an important teaching link and teaching mode. Its development can not only effectively promote good communication between teachers and students, but also improve students' English communication ability and make them have a deeper understanding of English learning.
First, create a teaching situation and build a dialogue platform
In English conversation teaching, teachers often use the method of creating teaching situations to start teaching, because this method can effectively help students enter the real dialogue world, create a good dialogue environment, help stimulate students' interest in learning, and at the same time strengthen students' understanding of the dialogue content. Ma Lin * once said: "If there is no language situation, words are meaningless and can't represent anything. Therefore, words can only produce meaning in situational context. " This shows the importance of teaching situation to primary English dialogue teaching. In the actual dialogue teaching process, the closer the situation created by teachers is to students' daily life, the more they can mobilize students' enthusiasm and make them actively carry out effective dialogue exercises. For example, in the class of "AtChristmas", teachers can decorate the classroom in advance, such as putting up a Christmas tree and pasting ribbons. In class, teachers play videos, pictures and music about Christmas to students with the help of multimedia, stimulate students' learning motivation through sound and color, and let themselves appear in front of students as Santa Claus. This makes the setting of teaching situation not only close to the teaching content, but also in "DoyougetChristmaspresents? In a series of related dialogues such as "Yes". The relationship between teachers and students will become more harmonious, and the true feelings of teachers and students will gradually step into the teaching theme of this class under the guidance of the teaching situation, so as to achieve the teaching goal of improving students' English literacy.
Second, enrich teaching methods and innovate dialogue means.
The diversity and rich performance of dialogue teaching methods can effectively stimulate students' interest in learning and improve their participation in learning. When improving teaching methods, teachers should strive to make education entertaining, and play and teaching are indispensable. Only in this way, students can truly enjoy education and feel the charm of English dialogue teaching. First, listen to the sound. In dialogue teaching, asking students to follow the teaching courseware or tape recorder can not only correct students' pronunciation problems, but also help students understand the characteristics of foreigners' dialogue expression at close range. For English dialogue teaching in primary schools, there is basically no condition for contact and communication with foreigners, and listening to recordings or courseware is an important way of contact. Therefore, teachers should attach importance to listening as a teaching link. Secondly, cooperative learning. This way can effectively help students find dialogue partners and realize dialogue learning in groups or at the same table, such as reading aloud in different roles, which is an effective teaching mode of cooperative learning dialogue. Finally, perform. In other words, let the students act out the English dialogue. It can be said that role performance is a way for students to consolidate their practical language application ability. In the process of traditional dialogue teaching, when the teacher asks, "Have you learned?" Students will basically only answer: "I have learned." In this way, you can't see the actual mastery of students. What students don't understand and master in the process of dialogue learning can only be truly reflected in actual practice. At the same time, performance display is an important way for students to enhance their self-confidence and show themselves. Therefore, teachers should actively apply this dialogue teaching method to English teaching, giving students ample opportunities to show and let them experience the happiness of success in the show.
Third, pay attention to expanding practice and sublimating knowledge application.
In the classroom of English dialogue teaching in primary schools, teachers should not only establish the teaching concept of "respecting teaching materials", but also pay attention to the expansion of English dialogue teaching materials, enrich and expand language teaching materials according to students' actual learning level, and help students apply their language knowledge to actual dialogue more effectively. For example, in the teaching of "Theplanningforweekend", teachers can design a discussion activity with the theme of "Takeaboutyourweekend", and then arrange for students to know their relatives and friends' weekend plans by email or telephone with the help of the teaching link of "Do a survey", so as to link the weekend conversation topics in class with practice, realize the combination of theory and practice in teaching, and further sublimate and improve the content of dialogue teaching. Another example is teaching "my schoolbag". Teachers can use the creation of teaching situations to let students practice dialogue in dialogue situations, which will help students master new words such as "pen, knife and copybook". After that, teachers can use small game exercises to expand teaching dialogue, consolidate words and sentence patterns through the game named "What'sinmyschoolbag", and expand dialogue and vocabulary practice under the condition of expanding practice forms, which can easily improve students' English dialogue level and promote the development of English dialogue classroom teaching in primary schools.
Four. conclusion
The development of English dialogue teaching activities in primary schools provides an important platform for students to master English dialogue knowledge and skills flexibly. To be an excellent primary school English teacher, it is necessary to create an interesting, reasonable, scientific and relaxed dialogue teaching atmosphere, and use advanced teaching methods to guide students to make up for their own shortcomings, increase their own advantages and develop their thinking in the process of English dialogue, so as to help students improve their English literacy.

Chapter three: the diversification of classroom reading methods.
abstract
Reading is an indispensable part of primary school English teaching, and it is also a difficult point in teaching. For primary school students, independent text reading is not easy, so it is necessary for teachers to guide students how to promote the effectiveness of English reading. According to the basic theory and practice of teaching, the author puts forward some suggestions on the diversified presentation of reading methods.
key word
Primary school English; Reading style; Effective classroom
For primary school English learning, reading is a basic ability and a big challenge to students. From the perspective of application, English subjects emphasize nothing more than listening, speaking, reading and writing, and reading, as one of them, plays a decisive role. If students can't read, it's hard to say that they have learned English. However, for primary school students who have not been exposed to English knowledge for a long time, the mastery of vocabulary and sentences is not mature enough, and it is really difficult to read articles. For this "difficult" and "necessary" learning task, teachers need to guide and help students from the perspective of reading methods and methods.
First, technical assistance to stimulate interest in reading
The first step of effective reading is to stimulate reading interest. If students don't even have the most basic enthusiasm and interest in English reading, then all teaching designs will be in vain. In primary school English teaching, reading can also be regarded as one of the most difficult teaching activities to arouse students' interest. When a long reading content is placed in front of students, many primary school students will have resistance and fear. It is the primary task of teachers to eliminate this negative emotion and let students face reading activities with a positive attitude. For example, there are many antonyms in Unit 8 "Doll" in Grade 4 of primary school English, which is also a reading focus of this unit. So, I made the text into slides in advance, and exaggerated these antonyms in the form of pictures. For example, put two dolls in the same slide, one is very big and the other is very small, showing "big" and "small" respectively. With the help of a series of pictures, students not only initially perceive the meanings of antonyms such as "fat", "thin", "long", "tall" and "short", but also have a high reading enthusiasm in the process, hoping to see how these words are applied in sentences. The current teaching background is very conducive to stimulating primary school English reading interest. Nowadays, more and more modern information technology means can be used by teachers and transferred to English teaching activities. On the one hand, with the help of technical means, the reading content can be displayed in a more vivid and interesting way. On the other hand, under the impetus of this form, reading activities can be carried out more smoothly. All these help to stimulate students' interest in reading.
Second, penetrate and skim carefully to promote the development of reading.
Effective English reading is inseparable from reasonable and ingenious reading methods, especially for primary school students whose knowledge base is not solid enough. It is more important to read under the guidance of methods. In fact, successful reading is not necessarily done word for word. For primary school students, the introductory reading method is not intensive reading, but skimming. Skimming emphasizes selective reading and grasps the content of the article as a whole. By skimming, we can not only know the meaning of the article, but also speed up the pace. For example, Unit 8 of the first volume of the fifth grade of primary school English describes the scene of celebrating Christmas in detail. In order to train students to skim, I ask you to extract the core content from each paragraph. We have found some keywords, such as gifts, Christmas tree, Santa Claus, Christmas, socks, turkey, pudding and so on. By putting these words together, we can clearly describe the whole Christmas process. In this way, students also realize that when they need to read quickly, they don't have to dig every word carefully, just grasp the key content. Under the infiltration of skimming, students not only greatly improve their reading efficiency, but also strengthen their perception of English paragraphs. After mastering the method of skimming, students establish a macro reading perspective, even if there are many strange contents, it will not affect students' grasp of the meaning of the text.
Third, properly use search reading to guide reading improvement.
In primary school English reading, "seeking to read" is another effective reading skill. If skimming is to pay attention to the reading material from the "surface", then searching is to grasp the text from the "point" angle. Many times, when students get a reading material, they don't need to grasp every detail, but grasp the key parts to understand. At this time, the use of search reading is particularly important. For example, there are four long and concentrated paragraphs in unit 7“protect the earth ",the first volume of the sixth grade of primary school English. It is difficult to ask students to read them all. So, I ask you, "Why should we save water?" “Whyisenergysoprecious？” "Why should we save trees?" "Why shouldn't we use too much plastic?" Wait for questions. These questions naturally lead students' eyes to the key position of the paragraph, and the work of finding reading begins. The application of search-reading method makes the whole English reading process more targeted, that is, as long as the questions are put forward accurately, students can be guided to concentrate on the target position, and the reading speed and quality will be improved synergistically.
For primary school students, English reading itself is more difficult and boring. However, with the continuous expansion of reading methods, the teaching effect of reading classroom has been significantly improved. It can be seen that in order to effectively carry out reading teaching in primary school English class, we need to pay attention not only to the essence of reading content, but also to the presentation form, so as to guide students to continuously promote English reading activities.
