English classroom teaching methods in senior high schools

Lead: English is the universal language in the world, and there is an increasing demand for English talents in society. Under the background of the new curriculum reform, English teachers are required to change the traditional teaching mode, take students as the center, give students the initiative in learning, attach importance to their own development, and cultivate their autonomous learning ability, thus laying a good foundation for the society to reserve outstanding talents.

High school English classroom teaching methods (1) focus on grammar teaching.

Grammar reveals the inherent laws of language. For learners, a certain knowledge of grammar is helpful to use the language more correctly and normatively. For foreign language learning, grammar learning is a shortcut to master a language.

In recent years, English teaching methods have been constantly renovated, and English classes have become? Four unlike? . Some teachers, especially those who have just stepped onto the podium, tend to go to extremes. There is almost no grammar in English class, and class is a completely westernized teaching method. This kind of course is very unpopular in nature, time-consuming and inefficient, and students are easy to learn. Get possessed? , or easy to cause? Polarization? .

In the process of language teaching, it is very dangerous not to talk about grammar, but to talk less about grammar. For students, there are many strange things in English, such as difficult words to remember and difficult sentence structure to master. Therefore, in teaching, we should make time to make up for grammar teaching. Grammar teaching can't be divorced from context ―― for example, grammar knowledge can be integrated into language materials, and students can understand the content by reading materials, analyzing key contents and strengthening difficulties. Choose interesting materials: essays, poems, dialogues, etc. Anything related to student life can be used. You can also choose something from the simplified books of British and American novels for students to read. Many materials related to what students have learned on the Internet and newspapers can also be used.

We should pay attention to the grammar points of each unit in the textbook, so that students can understand the meaning of sentences, and then some examples will appear to summarize the usage of words and sentences. Let students learn words one by one, just like learning ancient Chinese. In addition, let the students do some grammar exercises. Doing so has a hundred advantages and no harm. Grammar teaching is indispensable in basic English teaching, and the methods should be varied. Students learn and use grammar through the perception and understanding close to life, rather than taking sentences in isolation.

So let's not talk about grammar, okay? Discoloration? Don't be divorced from language practice, but speak grammar.

(2) Increase the intensity of reciting.

? I am familiar with 300 Tang poems, and I can't recite them, so I will steal them. . Children should pay attention to guiding students to recite from the beginning of learning English.

At first, I just asked the students to recite one or two sentences and gradually increased their efforts. From reciting sentences and dialogues to reciting long articles, teachers should insist on urging students to read and recite every day. Once students form this study habit, teaching is half done.

There is no shortcut to English learning, so you need to memorize it at the beginning. I'm afraid it's futile to blurt out English without trying to memorize words. Many famous English teachers encourage students to recite. For example, Mr. Mei Renyi, a professor and doctoral supervisor at Beijing Foreign Studies University, said that in the basic stage, or in the senior year, you should try to recite famous articles, such as reciting 50- 100, which is the essence in terms of language and content. Memorizing it is helpful to understand western culture and learn words. ? That's a wise statement. Teachers should pay attention to the cultivation of children's reciting ability in teaching.

(C) Optimize teaching methods

1. Clever doubts in class

Guiding innovative thinking in teaching, I often pay attention to designing various thinking problems from multiple angles and directions, cultivate students' habit of seeing problems from multiple levels and angles, and enhance their innovative thinking ability in the process of teaching and learning. Therefore, we should pay attention to cleverly setting doubts and stimulate students' thirst for knowledge.

2. Incorporate knowledge into famous stories.

Through proverbs and aphorisms, students can not only appreciate colorful and beautiful ideas, but also feel the majestic momentum and touching power of language, as well as their profound philosophy, rich imagination, ingenious ideas and novel expressions. To this end, I implemented? One word a week? . On the first day of school, I told my students that a good beginning is half the battle. ? When I talk about the usage of infinitive, I introduce it to the students. One should eat to live, not live to eat. ? Talk? t oo? t o? Structure, I introduce to students: It is never too old to learn. ? Pass? One word a week? It greatly enriches students' English knowledge, broadens their horizons, and makes them feel the infinite charm of English language, so as to accept English happily and learn English from the heart.

(D) Optimize teachers' and students' emotions and create a happy and harmonious new teaching environment.

Psychological research shows that a relaxed and happy atmosphere can enable students to study in a happy mood, fully and effectively mobilize intellectual factors, release huge learning potential, and greatly stimulate innovation sensitivity. Therefore, in classroom teaching, teachers must create a democratic and equal relationship between teachers and students and create a relaxed and harmonious classroom atmosphere.

Since the implementation of the new curriculum, English teaching in junior high school has undergone profound changes. Attach importance to students' main role, stimulate students' learning emotions, and really give the learning process to students-but many new problems have emerged, such as? Dialogue? As a question and answer, play? Autonomous? Become? Gravity flow? . Autonomous learning, inquiry learning, etc. In name only. This series of problems deserves our consideration and exploration. How to conduct effective classroom teaching is a problem worthy of in-depth study. The problems mentioned by the author here may be used for reference by other colleagues.

Discussion on English classroom teaching methods in senior high schools.

The current senior high school English textbooks have been established when arranging unit teaching content. A unit, a topic? Model. Taking this as a clue, we can train the basic skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing through classroom teaching in various parts. So the first step of text teaching should start with the topic of this unit? Warm up? Here we go. ? Warm up? The forms of activities should be eclectic, colorful, free to look at pictures and speak and debate, ranging from individuals, families, classes and schools to countries, societies, ancient and modern China and foreign countries.

The role of topic discussion activities is just like sports activities? Warm up? It can not only stimulate and strengthen students' learning interest and motivation, but also improve students' learning interest. Soften the content of this unit? Hard bones? . ? Warm up? It was well discussed. Text reading teaching will be much less difficult; ? Warm up? If the discussion is heated, the classroom learning atmosphere will be vigorous and energetic. The direction of topic discussion needs the teacher's careful design before class. One of the most important principles is to conform to the students' reality and the theme of this unit, and never follow one's inclinations and get out of hand. Take Unit 8 of the first volume of Senior Two English as an example. Warm up? The discussion should focus on? Family first aid? This center. Students can be guided to list some common accidents in family life, such as bruises and bleeding, scalding with boiling water, food poisoning, etc. Combined with students' real life experience, it can help students to give a brief first-aid explanation of the above cases and introduce the text content of this unit in order to seek more accurate and complete relevant information.

2 center positioning

Text teaching emphasizes the text as the basic unit. Therefore, reading teaching should emphasize hierarchy, organization and logic, which is the requirement of both reading teaching and writing teaching. The content of the unit text involves many detailed facts, but the overall understanding of the text must go before the details, so finding the theme paragraphs, sentences and keywords is the key link in reading teaching. In reading teaching, we should first determine a big topic according to the title of the article, and then determine the topic according to the theme and keywords of each paragraph under this big topic. Words? After completing these links, we made a central position for the article.

Is the process of finding a topic a? Focus? The process of text content, but this process must be completed in a limited time. In order to give full play to the group role of students and create a democratic classroom atmosphere, teachers should guide and organize students to communicate in groups, and do a good job in evaluating teaching activities (there is no standard answer or unique answer), and encourage students to express their opinions and exchange and discuss extensively. At the same time, it should be noted that the central positioning in senior high school reading teaching should be a step-by-step process, and teachers should make phased plans in various links such as activity time limit, content selection and selection, and hierarchical goal expression, so as to establish an effective logo for reading teaching with the central positioning activities.

3 Detailed classification set

Details and facts are the basic materials of an article. The judgment of details and facts in reading teaching is often multi-faceted, multi-angle and multi-level, and it is blind to the reading goal. Detailed facts are the most practical and direct materials.

Most senior high school students have a superior self-awareness in judging details and facts, which comes from some direct? Sit in the right position? Information judgment experience. But this is only a superficial phenomenon, because in information conversion, there will always be some formal changes in details and facts. Therefore, when designing activities to find details, teachers should fully consider the distribution and transformation of expressions, and try to avoid direct answers and gradual natural order. In essence, properly changing the expression and adjusting the order can not only attract students' attention, but also arouse their enthusiasm for participation; Through this activity, we can increase the input and output of classroom language in the competition. In the current senior high school English textbooks, each unit text is accompanied by the following detailed facts to determine the topic. Teachers should adjust, select or supplement the after-class topics according to the students' reality, so that they can serve the classroom language training more effectively.

4 guess the meaning of the word

Vocabulary obstacle in text teaching is a difficult point in reading. For the teaching of new words, the traditional grammar teaching method usually allows students to accept them all, whether in primary school or middle school. Is this mode a way to achieve the overall teaching goal of the text? Fake? Behavior. In essence, new words have different degrees of influence and function in reading. Some words, we need to know their exact meanings; Some words, we just need to know their categories, and some words, we don't need to explain at all, because they don't affect our understanding of the theme of the article.

The activity of guessing the meaning of words should pay attention to the training of hand skills. As mentioned above, teachers should demonstrate in the initial stage of high school and explain in detail the specific process and ideas of guessing some new words for students. With the gradual deepening of this activity. Transition to students' own practice. Guessing the meaning of words includes many skills and methods such as word formation, enumeration, correspondence, juxtaposition and logical reasoning, among which the most important thing is to teach students to observe and think carefully in reading, guess the meaning of words according to the context, and cultivate students' good reading habits and logical thinking ability.

5 synchronous writing

Obtaining material information through reading is the main goal of reading teaching, and reading and writing are closely related. The design of a series of classroom activities in senior high school English reading class, whether spoken or written, has paved the way for writing on the same topic. Using a lot of materials on these related topics and designing some appropriate synchronous writing activities can enable students to learn to express their thoughts step by step in language training, which is another central purpose of language learning.

When designing synchronous writing activities, we should try to be small and precise. We should not only consider the connection between what we have written and the topic of this unit, but also consider the connection between what we have written and students' real life. In the actual operation process, the writing steps should be detailed, the information exchange should be done well, and the layout and plate design discussion should be done well. Step by step.

Reading teaching activities are far more than the above five forms. Taking this as a lesson, the author suggests that English teachers in senior high schools should attach importance to the design of classroom teaching activities, learn from others' strengths, creatively carry out English teaching, and explore better teaching methods in the practice of teaching and learning.
