In 1980s, Professor Gardner of Harvard University put forward the theory of multiple intelligences. Visualinte 1ligence refers to the ability to accurately feel the visual space and display the perceived things. People with strong spatial intelligence like to imagine, design and doodle casually, and like illustrations in books. This kind of child thinks with images and imagery when learning. Under the guidance of the theory of "multiple intelligences", teachers can let students combine colors, lines, shapes, shapes and spaces to carry out English classroom teaching.
1. 1 Presentation of teaching materials by art
Textbooks are the most basic curriculum resources, and teachers should make full use of them and play an important role in them, and teachers are the most important curriculum resources. For teachers, it is particularly important to master the teaching materials and present them to students effectively, making them understandable inputs. Teachers can develop teaching materials in the following ways:
(1) Make the important and difficult points of the textbook into excellent courseware.
(2) Make full use of the illustrations in the text.
(3) When teaching 26 letters, it should be artistic and visual. For example, C is the moon, 0 is the ball, S is the snake, Y is the tree right, E is the folded quilt, H is the chair, L is the stick, M is the two doors and so on. Coupled with color, students will feel vivid and memorable.
(4) Flexible presentation of some contents in the textbook. For example, when teaching color words, let students draw pictures and colors according to the teacher's instructions. For example, when introducing technical terms, farmers, chefs, workers, d6ver and so on are not directly presented. , showing several identical paintings. Let the students add a few strokes to the picture to show the occupation of the characters in the picture.
1.2 Art beautifies the classroom environment
Let students learn English in a beautiful classroom environment. Teachers with certain artistic accomplishment will pay attention to the layout of the classroom. For them, the ideal learning environment should provide the following teaching materials and activities: art, building blocks, videos, slides, imaginary games, visual games, picture books, visits to art exhibitions, galleries and so on.
1.3 Principles of Integrating Art into English Classroom
When applying art to English classroom teaching, we should pay attention to two principles:
(1) student-centered principle: the student-centered teaching idea runs through classroom teaching. According to students' actual English level, improve the present situation, emphasize that students are the main body of teaching activities, and mobilize their enthusiasm to participate in classroom activities.
(2) Purpose: The purpose of teaching is to enable students to learn English better through art, which serves English, rather than letting art "usurp the host's role". It is necessary to prevent students from focusing on the humor of painting and multimedia animation and leaving spoken English behind, thus failing to achieve the purpose of entertaining. Integrating art into the classroom can create a relaxed atmosphere, instead of letting students just indulge in the fun of art and highlight the guiding role of art in the teaching process in limited classroom activities.
2. How to skillfully use artistic elements in English teaching
Classroom painting can closely combine vivid and interesting images with teaching content, which is a very favorite teaching method for children. Teachers' use of classroom painting in Chinese teaching is not only intuitive and vivid, but also helps students to understand what they have learned directly, and it is easy to deepen their memory by combining audio and video. The clever use of classroom painting can inspire and guide students to complete teaching tasks seriously and further stimulate their interest in learning.
2. 1 Introduction of classroom painting attracts students' attention.
As we all know, classroom teaching time is limited. How to focus students' attention on teaching at the beginning of classroom teaching is a link worthy of serious consideration and design by every teacher. It is one of the ingenious methods for teachers to use classroom painting reasonably to introduce new lessons. With only a few strokes, people and things can be outlined in an instant, which will surprise students and guide them into the teaching situation. For example, when teaching animals, in order to avoid the trouble of bringing so many toy animals into the classroom, the teacher introduced animals "Look! it
be
A… "Draw a simple head of various animals. Students are very novel when they see those "animals" with simple lines but distinctive features. They were immediately attracted by English learning and rushed to express their views.
Like a tiger. ""This dog is lovely. "
2.2 classroom painting explanation, easy for students to understand.
Some language materials are difficult to explain and students are difficult to understand. According to the characteristics of students' thinking in images, teachers can turn to "classroom painting". Draw classroom pictures while speaking language materials, which is convenient for primary school students to understand directly with their senses. For example, explain
At and see, through the combination of classroom painting and teacher's explanation, students can understand and master their similarities and differences at once. Another example is explaining on trees and trees.
Trees, the teacher drew an apple tree full of apples, a pear tree full of pears, a cat on the tree and a boy climbing the tree. Combining these classroom paintings to explain to the students, the children suddenly felt "suddenly enlightened."
2.3 classroom painting consolidation, so that students can easily master.
Make use of classroom painting review to consolidate the content of the language learned, teachers draw pictures, seize students' curiosity to attract students, and students are willing to participate in the retelling of what they have learned. For example, A who teaches Oxford English 5A
new
House "is a class. The teacher draws a picture of the class. Let the students retell the dialogue collectively. Then let the students retell the dialogue while drawing. When the students are proficient in retelling, the teacher asks the students to imagine designing and drawing their own bedroom or study, and introduce the things in their bedroom with the prepositions they have learned. The students showed their pictures and explained them in English, and unconsciously mastered the teaching content of this lesson.
2.4 classroom painting evaluation homework, encourage and guide students.
The new English curriculum standard puts forward that the ways of homework evaluation should be diversified. It is often difficult for primary school students to understand that teachers write English evaluations for students' homework. However, if classroom painting and short English evaluation are properly used to evaluate homework, it will not only change the traditional single-level evaluation method, but also help students understand the teacher's English evaluation. When the students' homework is neat and accurate, the teacher can draw smiling faces of cartoon characters next to the class, or give a thumbs-up to praise "very"
Very good! "; When there are mistakes in students' homework, the teacher can draw a thoughtful portrait "think about it"
Over! "; When students are careless in their homework, teachers can draw a sad portrait of "homework"
Push! "In addition, teachers can also turn the heads of characters into cartoon animals, fruits and so on. Every time homework is handed out, students can't wait to open their homework books and appreciate the teacher's evaluation of themselves. Classroom painting evaluation of students' homework can urge students to finish their homework seriously, or guide students to strictly demand homework and improve the quality of homework.
In short, combining personal hobbies with teachers' profession is a means to actively promote teaching. The combination of artistic hobby and English class is an effective teaching method. The combination of the two enables artistic elements to be integrated and skillfully used in English teaching.
