The task of English course in basic education stage is to stimulate and cultivate students' interest in learning English, so that students can establish self-confidence, form good study habits and effective learning strategies, and develop autonomous learning ability and cooperative spirit. Obviously, how important interest is, and how to make students interested in English reading, then teaching becomes particularly important. In class, teachers should use various flexible mechanisms to motivate students and be good at creating an atmosphere. Once students are not focused, teachers should be able to mobilize and maintain students' enthusiasm in time and have a little humor. Reading can be done in another way, instead of the traditional mode of letting students listen to tapes and then read aloud. Try to let students role-play or tell short stories to show this content. It not only achieves the purpose of reading, but also cultivates students' comprehensive language application ability. Why not?
Second, expand extracurricular reading and improve reading efficiency.
It is far from enough for students to learn English only in the content of textbooks. It is necessary to help students collect information from multiple angles and provide them with written materials that can increase their knowledge and improve their reading ability. Such as English learning newspaper and English story book. , distributed to students. Only by reading more books can we broaden our knowledge and master more vocabulary. In order to improve reading efficiency. Only when English teachers jump out of English to teach English, jump out of textbooks to teach English, constantly develop innovative texts, and realize expansion, practice and interest, can students develop in expanding reading, and their knowledge can be accepted, digested and absorbed while broadening.
3. Teaching is divided into levels to reduce the difficulty.
It is an indisputable fact that sixth-grade students have little accumulated English knowledge. As a reading material for the sixth grade, it will more or less involve previous knowledge. In teaching, we should fully carry out review activities before reading. Lead students to do word games, dialogue performances, and read key sentence patterns. Let the students master the main sentence patterns and vocabulary in this part as well as possible. After sufficient review activities, I will ask students to find out the words and sentence patterns that have just been reviewed in the reading materials and read them at the same table. Then, I put forward one or two easy-to-answer questions in the article, so that students can carry out reading activities with these questions. The difficulty is reduced, and the enthusiasm and initiative of students to participate in activities are obviously enhanced. Let the students complete the above activities, and then I will lead the students to understand the passage and encourage them to complete the test questions.
Fourth, it is very important for students to master reading methods and skills.
1, get into the habit of reading as a whole and master the main idea of the article.
Holistic reading is a scientific reading method. First of all, it is required that the sentences to be read should be grouped as much as possible, with complete meaning, and the eyes should stop as little as possible to grasp the meaning of the sentences as a whole. Instead of translating reading materials word for word.
2. Learn to guess the meaning of words and associate the structure of words.
The biggest obstacle to English reading is vocabulary. Without a certain vocabulary, it is impossible for an English article to know only a few words, which feels like reading Braille and is meaningless. But it is impossible to read without new words at all, so students should learn to guess the meaning of words according to context, context and word structure.
3. Think in English
It may be difficult to do this in primary school, but it is a bad habit to cultivate their English context from an early age and not change their meaning from their mother tongue, that is, they can't translate it into Chinese word by word, so as to grasp the general idea of the whole article. It is necessary to understand English directly and reduce the translation between mother tongue and English. Cultivate this English awareness as much as possible.
4. Choose reading materials correctly.
It is very important for teachers to choose reading materials suitable for primary school students, otherwise it will not play a role in English reading teaching. Attention should be paid to the following aspects: first of all, it is better to read the original text than to write it yourself, and the original flavor can better paste into the authenticity of the language; Secondly, when choosing reading materials, it is almost as difficult as reading materials in students' textbooks. If you are not sure, you can look at the sentence patterns used in the textbook and compare them with the selected reading materials. Thirdly, there should not be too many new words in the selected reading content, not more than five at most. Because too many new words will hinder students' reading and can't promote students' sense of accomplishment and enthusiasm after reading.
