Effective methods of English classroom introduction in junior middle schools

Lead: Classroom lead-in is very important in English teaching activities, and it is the preheating link of the whole classroom teaching activities. Correct and effective lead-in can create a harmonious classroom atmosphere, stimulate students' interest in learning, make students enter the best state of classroom learning in the shortest time, and naturally turn their attention to the teaching of new content.

Effective methods of English classroom introduction in junior middle schools 1. Clarify the role of import.

As the saying goes, drums still need to be hammered. The first hammer as a heavy hammer? The lead-in must be vigorous, and the voice should hit the students' hearts directly, so that students can have a spark of wisdom. At the beginning of class, the first problem to be solved is to eliminate the interference of other courses' repetitive thinking or psychological distractions, quickly concentrate students' attention, and put them into new learning situations to improve classroom learning efficiency. What is the purpose of English classroom lead-in? Activate students' existing related background knowledge, supplement necessary and new background knowledge, and inspire students to think about related topics. ? At the same time, it is also for students to summarize the existing language knowledge, such as vocabulary and sentence patterns, so as to pave the way for students to further learn new content and knowledge. ?

Second, grasp the principle of import.

How to pave the way for students' further study needs to grasp three leading-in principles: interest, pertinence and novelty.

(1) interest

Suhomlinski thinks:? The starting point of teaching is to stimulate students' interest and desire in learning. ? Confucius, a famous educator in ancient China, once said: Those who love are better than those who know, and those who enjoy are better than those who love. ? From the psychological point of view, interest is a good emotion generated in the process of understanding things. This kind of psychological situation will make learners actively seek ways and means to know and understand things, showing a strong sense of responsibility and a strong spirit of inquiry. Most students report that interesting English class introduction is a kind of spiritual enjoyment, which enables them to study more actively and consciously.

(b) Targeting

The pertinence of lead-in is mainly reflected in two aspects: first, it refers to the teaching content, which should be based on the full consideration of the organic internal relationship with the teaching materials and cannot be made redundant in classroom teaching. Secondly, it refers to the differences of students' age characteristics, psychological state and knowledge and ability foundation. For example, when I teach Oxford Junior Middle School English 8A Unit 1 Friends, I should first consider determining different ways of importing according to the English level of junior two students. But the premise is to attract students' attention and make clear the purpose of classroom teaching.

(3) Novelty

Novel and contemporary information can arouse students' interest, and the stronger the students' interest, the better the effect will be. For example, in the teaching of 7B magic things, we can attract students' attention by playing anthropomorphic English movies and videos of animals such as Kung Fu Panda, which can help students quickly enter the English atmosphere.

Third, implement the import strategy.

? What's the situation 、? Collaboration? And then what? Dialogue? They are the three elements in the learning environment, which provide strong support for students' classroom activities. Based on this, the following import strategies can be practiced in teaching.

Multimedia input

Main functions: setting the scene, rendering the atmosphere, and guiding students to actively enter the study.

Specific operation:

1. Actual import

Physical teaching can attract students' attention, grasp their curiosity, stimulate their interest and stimulate their learning motivation. For example, when it comes to words, there is a word yoyo, which is a kind of toy. I took one directly to class, and the students asked to play. Soon they not only mastered the words, but also the sentence pattern of this lesson: Can you play with the yo-yo? Yes, we can.

2. Import pictures and stick figures

The picture is rich in color and expressive, which can attract students' attention instantly. In the process of teaching, for example, in the first class of Unit 8A at sunrise, when teaching to climb mountains, there are only a few stick figures, and lifelike things will jump around on the blackboard. The introduction of pictures and stick figures can save a lot of time, help to understand and remember, add a lively atmosphere to the classroom, and let students accept knowledge with a relaxed and happy mood.

3. Introduction to music and songs

Music and songs have strong appeal and appeal. Using them to introduce new lessons and create situations in teaching can make students feel cordial and happy, help students understand culture, establish learning confidence, stimulate students' emotions, stimulate students' desire for knowledge, lay a good foundation for learning new knowledge, and thus improve the effectiveness of classroom teaching. For example, in the first class of teaching 7B ability, introduce a new lesson with a song "Proud of You" before class and sing it repeatedly? Can I fly? Stimulated students' self-confidence and interest in learning.

4. Introduction to Poetry Recitation

Rhythm and chanting are lively and popular with students, which is a good way to lead in. For example, when learning demonstrative pronouns, students can read: this is near and that is far; This is my ear and that is your star. I have these and you have those; These are my knees and these are your toes. This, that, these, these, near, far, now we know. Soon the students happily entered the learning state in Lang Lang's reading.

(2) Introduction by teachers

Main functions: grasping students' cognition, designing life-oriented problems, exporting vitality in the lead-in and establishing a conceptual framework for the next study.

Specific operation:

1. Problem-based import

Teachers should consciously choose what they have learned that is intrinsically related to new knowledge, thus? A series of questions? 、? Sudden problems? And other forms, so that students can recall what they have learned and achieve the purpose of reviewing the old and learning new things. For example, you can ask the present tense before saying the past tense.

2. Introduce the background knowledge import

Some texts are related to the life, customs and habits of treating people in Britain and America. Teachers can introduce them before class. For example, when talking about Thanksgiving, introduce the origin of Thanksgiving.

3. Temporary import

That is, teachers deliberately set doubts according to the content of the text, create suspense, stimulate students' psychology of tracing back to the source, and stimulate students' learning motivation. Proper suspense is a stimulant. If questions can arouse students' interest and attract their attention, students can actively think around the questions raised and classroom efficiency can be improved. For example, when talking about time, I draw a circle on the blackboard and ask the students: What? What is this? Students may answer: it? This is a circle. It? This is a plate. It? Then I draw a point in the circle and ask the students, and they will answer: it? A face. It? This is a cake, and so on. Finally, I draw long and short needles or numbers in the circle, and the students will understand immediately? This can lead to a new sentence pattern: What time is it?

(C) student lead-in

Main function: Use students' independence and creativity to guide students to ask questions, solve problems and complete tasks independently.

Specific operation:

1. Discuss importing

Discussion-based introduction means that teachers give students one or several specific topics before class, so that they can discuss in groups to introduce new lessons. Although sometimes the class is a little noisy, it can activate students' thinking in a short time and let them enter the learning state as soon as possible. But we should pay attention to limiting the scope of students' discussion. For example, in the main task of 8-year one-day tour, I set the topic of tourism for students, and gave them four places to choose from (Beijing, Shanghai, Dalian and Hainan) for them to discuss in groups. After listening to the students' discussion results, they naturally entered the content of this lesson. In this way, students make the finishing point, teachers make the finishing point, * * * cooperate with each other, and the teaching purpose is successfully achieved.

2. Introduction to the performance of the textbook drama

Teachers can adapt the text into an easy-to-understand script in advance, and then students can rehearse. For example, when it comes to seeing a doctor, I will let four students perform the scene of seeing a doctor before class, and then gradually introduce new lessons from the students' performances. This method has a good effect and greatly improves students' understanding ability.

3. Introduction of jokes and stories

Middle school students are characterized by strong curiosity, thirst for knowledge, and love to listen to and read interesting stories. There are many jokes and stories in English that shine with wisdom and give people profound enlightenment. Using them to introduce new lessons can achieve the effect of adjusting the classroom atmosphere and mobilizing students' active listening mood.

4. Game-based import

Games can make teaching more effective. Taking games as a classroom lead-in can not only enliven the classroom atmosphere, but also help to concentrate students' attention and make them naturally enter the learning state. Playing games is the most commonly used method in class, and it is also the most popular method for students. We often play games, such as passing games, guessing games, bingo games, touching your knees and so on.

The lead-in mentioned above aims to make boring teaching work lively, create conditions for students to acquire and practice languages in a relaxed and natural atmosphere, stimulate students' enthusiasm for learning, make students happy and eager to learn, and promote the improvement of teaching quality.

Let the students study happily at the beginning of school and enjoy a good date!
