11、g English courses is the necessity of social development Primary school, English courses for social development needs of the 21st century, the development of a knowledge-based economy, so that human being has enter into a learning society. The rapid development of science and technology, and interna

12、tional competition has become increasingly fierce, the competition of comprehensive national strength in the world. Science and technology is the main competition, the main symbol of modern science and technology and information technology. As we all know, in todays world, English has become the com

13、mon language of the world, we have to learn more scientific knowledge because it is an important tool. And our country to outside world in order to keep pace with the international trend of the times better. At first, making sure that our citizens have the basic foreign language skills. However, due

14、 to a weak foundation, uneven quality of teachers, limited teaching facilities and lack of a better English-learning environment, especially in outdated concepts and methods of teaching and single evaluation tools, the pace of improving the quality of English teaching is far from adequate to meet th

15、e needs of social development. For example: Most students, after learning English for about six years, their learning English is still a “ deaf-dumb ” English and vocabulary is only 2000. How can we improve the quality of teaching foreign language more effectively? To meet this need, the Bureau of E

16、ducation, which has set up English courses in primary school at the beginning of the 21st century as an important part of the basic education curriculum reformation, formulated the “ Primary English Curriculum Teaching Basic Requirement （for trial implementation） ”.English courses are favourable for

17、 improvement of national quality In Grade one or two, students are at the period of early youth with seven and eight years. At the age of the child is full of curiosity, active, loving performance, imitation and so on. They like new things, the curiosity to unknown language can arouse their foreign

18、language interest, and expect other people to pay more attention to themselves, hoping to obtain recognition of the teacher. At this period, children have more advantages to learn English than adult or senior students, such as initiative, moldable. Therefore, English courses in primary school can al

19、so exploit the students potentiality of studying language. Through the study of foreign language to improve their thinking, moral, cultural and psychological qualities so that students can understand the cultural traditions of the nation and other countries; to be in a better position to develop the

20、ir thinking, broaden their field of vision, enrich their knowledge and experience. English courses help students improve their mastery, fostering consciousness of competition, which makes them adapt to the demands of society, economy, culture, development of technology and international association

21、in the future.The students are mainly from nearby countryside, distinct from the children who come from the cities. Therefore pupils have less difficulty in learning English in rural primary school. By investigation, the main reasons are as follow:1. The rural children were fearful and ashamed of sp

22、eaking English, they were born in rural areas, influenced by special environment and family education around them. Compared with the children who come from the cities, they are overcautious, non-talktive, short of self-confidence, afraid to be criticized by a teacher after making mistakes, timid of

23、speaking English or dare not to speak.2. Rural primary English methods and means have fallen behind those of city school. In rural area, there is still a primary use of traditional methods of teaching English and this “ Cramming Teaching ”caused depressing classroom atmosphere, students in a passive

24、 state of acceptance. Moreover, it did not meet the students physiological characteristics and age characteristics, but also unable to meet their interest in learning. Thus, the students are tired of and unwilling to learn English again. 3. Lack of English-learning environment. In classroom, English

25、 teachers should give class in fluent spoken English, the students get in touch with English about three or four times every week, only twenty minutes each time. But other teachers have classes in Chinese and some of students create disturbance or kick up a row when the English teacher speaks Englis

26、h. Above-mentioned reasons will influence other students English acquisition. Moreover, in todays society, especially in rural areas, English-learning environment is very few, even none; the students are short of opportunity of listening, speaking, drilling and English-learning environment. 4. The n

27、egative influence of family o education and environment was serious. Many parents might have been aware of the importance of English learning, but the considered that it was sufficient enough to learn the basic subjects, such as language and literature, mathematics, science etc. The students need no

28、t study English in primary school, especially for six or sevens children, they can not distinguish the letters between Chinese and English. Their parents have a suspicion that the children were too young to learn English well, when children are imbued with happiness to tell about their curiosity of

29、English learning, they did not carry on the positive guided education. Though some parents may be aware of the importance of English learning in primary school, did not create a good study condition due to without sufficient knowledge of literature and know nothing about English. . The features of E

30、nglish teaching in primary school English teacher, in order to make their usual teaching more effectively, they should understand and grasp the features of English teaching in primary school, but at first they should know what the purpose of English teaching is. The purpose is to arouse students str
