【正文】Abstract: The focus of English teaching in Qing Hai primary and secondary schools is to cultivate students' listening and speaking abilities, their interest in learning English and their ability to communicate simply in English. The mastery of English grammar can assist students in listening, speaking, reading and writing activities, and play a link role in English learning. However, the dullness of grammar hinders the improvement of the efficiency of English grammar teaching in primary schools. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the current situation of English grammar teaching in primary schools and put forward corresponding countermeasures.
Key words: English grammar teaching, Qing Hai primary and secondary school, curriculum reform of grammar learning
The Significance of English Grammar Teaching in Qing Hai Primary and Secondary Schools:
English grammar in Qing Hai primary and secondary schools has always been a difficult point in English teaching, because the psychological characteristics, age characteristics and knowledge reserve of Qing Hai primary and secondary school students are not enough to overcome the obstacles to English learning caused by the habit of learning Chinese. English grammar is the link and core of learning this language. Grammar is not good, and it is difficult to learn later.
Principles and Contents of English Grammar Teaching in Qing Hai Primary and Secondary Schools
The content of English grammar teaching in Qing Hai primary and secondary schools mainly includes meaning, use and form. When Qing Hai primary and secondary school students learn a foreign language, the first thing they should pay attention to is the content rather than the form of the language. Therefore, English teachers should insist on putting the meaning of teaching first. First, they should input a certain amount of language into the students, so that they can develop certain language perception ability, and then try to use the language.
The Present Situation and Problems of English Grammar Teaching in Qing Hai Primary and Secondary Schools
1. Overemphasis on Grammar Learning
Overemphasizing the traditional grammar teaching concept of grammar learning still exists in today's English classroom. Some English teachers lack the background of English professional learning. Such teachers believe that the focus of English teaching is grammar teaching. In addition, teachers themselves rely heavily on grammar learning for English learning. Therefore, it is inevitable to bring this knowledge and habit into the classroom. On the other hand, grammar is the focus of the current English exams in both Qing Hai primary and secondary schools. It is inevitable that the test baton will make teachers more inclined to grammar teaching.
2. Over-neglecting the new curriculum reform of grammar learning
Enaglish teaching emphasizes the cultivation of oral communicative competence. Some English teachers have over-interpreted this concept. They believe that the purpose of English teaching is to help students acquire good oral communicative competence. Therefore, they spend a lot of classroom time on oral training, but put grammar learning in a secondary and auxiliary position. Some English teachers even misread the concept of the new curriculum as weakening grammar teaching and strengthening oral communication teaching. This is a one-sided and narrow view of English teaching.
Strategies for English Grammar Teaching in Qing Hai Primary and Secondary Schools
1. Grammar in Communication Training
The purpose of using grammar to learn English grammar in communicative training is not to test, but to use it. Therefore, teachers should seize every opportunity for students to get exercise, so that students can get more exposure to English, feel English and become familiar with English. Teachers should also be good at creating an atmosphere of English communication, so that students can experience the use of a certain grammar point in a specific situation, and migrate to other similar situations. For example, learning the present tense can create situations: What do you usually do on weekends? Organize students to form several groups to imitate the dialogue between friends. The creation of such a situation is simple and easy, it can also highlight grammar knowledge, so that students can master the use of functional sentence patterns in interesting simulation exercises.
2. Grammar is taught in stories or short dialogues
Grammar is taught in stories and short dialogues. Teachers should pay attention to concentrating the essence of grammar and integrate the most crucial knowledge in short materials. For example, teaching students to ask people or things, that is, the sentence pattern “What's this?” Who is he / she? To borrow the following short dialogue: A: What's this? B: It's a desk. A: Thank you, and what's that? B: That's a chair.
3. Use grammar in exercises
Primary English teachers who use grammar in exercises should select exercises that best reflect grammar knowledge to test students' mastery. If you learn the relationship between the person in the present tense and the predicate verb, use the following exercises: Every weekend, Tom's family goes to the park. Mr. Green and Mrs. Green like taking photo, Tom likes playing with other children. When Tom is tired, Mrs. Green gives him a bottle of water. Tom is very happy on weekend, Mr. Green and Mrs. Green are happy too. When using this kind of exercises, we usually need to examine the singular and plural forms of predicate verbs. Teachers can ask students to pay attention to the predicate verbs in each sentence and point out the reasons for using singular or plural verbs, so that students can grasp the relationship between subject and predicate verbs in repeated reinforcement.
4. Learn grammar in fun games
Learning grammar games in interesting games can increase students' interest in learning, arouse their enthusiasm and make dull grammar learning lively and interesting. Teachers can compile songs to make grammar points easy to remember and read. For example, learn “what can you do?” When making sentences, teachers can use the well-known song “Happy New Year” to compile songs: I can dance, I can dance, what can you do? I can sing, I can sing, Let's dance and sing. Teachers can also design guessing games, such as learning the sentence pattern “What's this?” When “It's...”, the teacher hides rubber, ruler and other small things that students can express in English. Then the teacher asks the students to look for them and express them in English as “it's a eraser” and “it's a ruler”.
In conclusion, the teaching of English grammar in primary school should adhere to the principle of “speaking concisely, practicing more, giving priority to practice”, so that students can realize the significance of learning English grammar in real context, understand English language habits and improve their comprehensive ability to use language. English teachers should explore grammar learning methods suitable for students according to their learning conditions, accumulate experience and be good at innovation, so as to improve teaching efficiency and make grammar learning no longer boring and difficult.
