活动教学法在小学英语教学中的应用
摘要
近些年来,全国正在进行有深远意义的课程改革,而英语课程为了适应各种要求,也在某种程度上进行了改革,而活动教学法作为交际教学法的一个分支,也越来越受学者们的青睐和喜爱。
活动教学法是一种能较好的适应小学生身心发展的教学方法,它可以让孩子们在“做中学”,促进孩子的全面发展。
本文旨在发现当前英语教育存在的问题,并针对这些问题提出策略,为学生提供轻松的学习环境,以提高学生的学习兴趣,学习能力和成绩,使学生主动学习,并提高其英语交流能力。
在这两个月的具体教学的实践研究中,本文对两个应用不同教学方法的小学英语班进行对比实验。
作者采用学生问卷调查、测试等研究手段,通过对问卷结果的整理,课堂活动的观察,考试结果的对比讨论发现,活动教学法不仅锻炼学生的思维,增加学生体验英语的机会,而且可以提高学生的成绩,优化英语课堂教学效果。
