How to Use Picture Book Materials to Teach Primary School English

Picture books have been loved by many teachers and students in recent years because of their diverse topics and contents and their closeness to life. However, there is a considerable difference between a picture book teaching class and a traditional English classroom, and these are some points that need to be noted in elementary school English teaching:

1. Teachers don't need to emphasize on vocabulary or sentence patterns, as long as the students understand the overall general idea of the story and can answer questions about some of the story's details, it's OK, and the students can naturally acquire the language in the middle of the reading.

2. Teachers need to guide students to read aloud as much as possible, in which children can read the length of each word, how many letters it has, how many words there are in each sentence, and what words sentences are made of. They will also be able to perceive English as a language naturally.

To summarize, the teaching design of "Aesop's Fables" has greatly deepened students' understanding of the overall story and strengthened their reading aloud of the text. Teachers can also internalize their understanding of teaching picture books with the help of the given teaching materials.
