My opinion on how to improve primary school students’ listening and speaking skills

Primary school students are the best period for language development and a critical stage for mastering language. Teachers must grasp this period and conduct listening and speaking training for students. This is not only the need for quality education, but also the need of today's society. According to the characteristics of primary school students' psychological development, I believe that the listening and speaking abilities of primary school students can be cultivated through the following points. 1. Cultivate students’ interest in speaking and encourage students to speak boldly and independently. The success of a conversation largely determines whether you listen to others, whether you are good at discovering the other person's emotions and intentions while listening, and whether you are good at capturing the information conveyed by the other person's conversation. People spend half of their language communication activities listening. In modern society, channels for retaining information through sound transmission are developing rapidly, which requires us to have a strong "listening" ability. As a teacher, how to cultivate students' listening and speaking skills? Students who have just entered school have a strong desire for knowledge, and at the same time they also have a psychological desire to express themselves. But because I just arrived in a strange environment, I came into contact with so many unknown teachers and students. It is easy to become timid and want to say but dare not say it. Therefore, we must try to choose some content that is close to students' lives, full of childlike innocence and fun as the materials for training students' speaking. Interest is a stimulation of human brain thinking and a motivation for students to learn. Teachers should consciously let students listen to some interesting stories. After listening to these stories, ask students to tell these stories repeatedly to see which one of the students can tell the best and remember the fastest. Teachers should appropriately praise students who speak well, and encourage students who speak poorly rather than discourage them, so that students will dare to speak and love to speak without knowing it. Listening is also more focused. Only when you become interested in listening and speaking can you learn to speak through a lot of speaking practice. 2. Cultivating students' good speaking habits is an important condition for forming speaking ability. The language of primary school students develops naturally in a rich life without systematic training, and there is a common phenomenon of "interrupting when they shouldn't speak, and not speaking when they should". This requires teachers to pay attention to cultivating students to develop the following speaking habits. 1. Don’t hinder others when they speak, and listen to others quietly. 2. Listen carefully when others speak and understand what they mean. 3. If you have any questions about what others say, you will ask questions. 4. Able to understand and remember what others are saying. 5. Speak concisely without being sloppy. 6. Be consistent and not inconsistent. 7. Focus on the theme and do not leave the central topic. 8. Speak appropriately and use appropriate words. 9. The tone is clear and smooth, without stuttering, etc. If students can do the above points, it means that the students also have good speaking habits. 3. Conduct speaking training in conjunction with teaching materials and teaching. Teaching materials are the basis for speaking training; teaching is the main form of speaking training. For primary schools, the first step is to teach based on textbooks. The specific methods are: 1. Use obedience training to carry out speaking training. Using obedience for speaking training is a necessary practice that should be paid attention to and utilized in teaching. Only by listening clearly, carefully and accurately can we speak comprehensively, thoughtfully and profoundly. Once students develop good obedient habits, speaking teaching can achieve twice the result with half the effort. 2. Combine the illustrations in the textbook with speaking training. In the lower grades of primary school, there are many illustrations. When teaching these pictures, teachers should guide students to speak out the contents of these pictures, and through intuitive and vivid pictures, they can unknowingly train their speech. 3. Train speaking in literacy, word learning, and sentence learning. Seize the training of speaking in literacy, word learning, and sentence learning. For example, when teaching the word "红", let students first tell what the initial consonants and finals in the syllable are, and then talk about the structure. What is on the left, what is on the right, and what is the radical. Third, form the word "red" into a word and use this word to say a sentence. In this way, continuous training from words to words, from words to sentences, over time, students' ability to recognize words, form sentences, and speak will naturally improve. 4. Practice speaking based on the text. The text is the basis and main content for training speaking. During the entire teaching process, students are allowed to know where the words they want to know appear and what they mean through literacy, word recognition, and reading the text content, and then talk about the main content of the text. What. In this way, through the training process of characters, words, sentences, paragraphs and articles, students can learn that different characters and words can express different meanings in different language environments. Understand a complete sentence and a complete paragraph, and how to speak completely and accurately.

4. Consciously organize and carry out various extracurricular activities to train speaking. Organize storytelling, continue storytelling, and practice speaking through games. Combine speaking training with school and class activities, conduct random speaking training, etc. All can cultivate students’ listening and speaking skills. 5. Pay attention to the teacher’s language modeling role. The teacher’s language modeling role plays a very important role in speaking training. Students are very imitative when learning language, and teachers’ language has a great impact on students. Therefore, teachers must constantly strengthen their language cultivation and improve their speaking ability. When insisting on speaking Mandarin, the expressions and movements should be natural and generous, the meaning should be expressed completely and clearly, the articulation should be clear, the speaking speed should be moderate, and the language cadence should serve as a model. In short, the cultivation of listening and speaking abilities is an important task in Chinese language teaching in the lower grades of primary schools, and it is also an important condition for comprehensively improving students' quality. The above points are some of my superficial understanding of training the listening and speaking abilities of primary school students, and I would like to share them with everyone.
