Homework is an indispensable link in the teaching process, and it is the continuation and perfection of classroom teaching. Its purpose is to enable students to further consolidate what they have learned in class, use what they have learned in class to train their language application ability and improve their English communication level. At the same time, scientific and reasonable homework will play a timely feedback role on students' knowledge mastery, which will help teachers to better complete their teaching tasks.

First, homework should be targeted.

Homework design should highlight the key points and difficulties, which is conducive to the realization of English teaching objectives. It is necessary to consciously design and arrange relevant content, make the homework objectives clear, and let students create situations in connection with real life, which is in line with the level of students' knowledge. Let every student experience the joy of success and inspire students to do their homework. For example, in the teaching of grade five English unit My Family, students can play the role of family members after class, in groups of several people, voluntarily combine, write dialogues in different roles, and role-play in class. Through this kind of oral and written training, students have mastered the sentence patterns they want to master.

Second, the homework should be interesting.

Interest is the best teacher and the first condition to learn any subject well. Therefore, students can't always copy words and write sentences when assigning homework, which will make them feel very boring. Therefore, teachers should try their best to make the types of homework diverse, the content novel, vivid and interesting. Only in this way can they arouse students' curiosity and thirst for knowledge, thus stimulating their interest in learning and making them take the initiative to learn. For example, when teaching "Happy Birthday" in grade three English class, let students discuss whether there are birthday parties, birthday gifts, birthday cakes and candles. The students' discussion is very intense. After the discussion, let the students draw a birthday cake and a present. And let his family sing "Happy Birthday" on their birthdays, so that students can unconsciously use new knowledge.

Third, the homework should be concise.

Under the new educational form of advocating quality education and reducing students' burden, teachers must ensure the quality of homework. It is necessary to carefully select and design exercises that conform to the teaching content, so that the homework is few and precise, but at the same time, students can be trained in a targeted manner. It not only consolidates knowledge but also exercises English communication ability, and can't assign too much homework. Put an end to "sea tactics", otherwise students will get twice the result with half the effort, and the loss will outweigh the gain.

How to arrange effective primary school English homework

Keywords: various forms, step by step, combination of old and new, relaxed and happy, interactive display.

In the process of implementing quality education, reducing the burden is one of the primary tasks. In order to reduce the burden, how to give students homework has become a topic of disagreement among teachers. What kind of English homework should students be assigned? Especially for primary school students who have not taken English as their main subject, they should be given some optional homework that can cultivate their interest in learning and combine various skills. Therefore, the design of homework should proceed from the reality of students at all levels as far as possible, pay attention to the difficulty, let the students with strong learning ability "eat enough", ensure the students with weak ability to do and "jump" to meet the needs of different levels.

Of course, in order to reduce the burden on students, the total amount of homework should also be strictly controlled, especially the amount of mechanical exercises. The design of homework should be based on the teaching materials, around the teaching requirements, and match the teaching materials and the teaching objectives of each class. Therefore, when designing homework, teachers should understand the basic goals and development goals of textbooks and each lesson, and then design homework according to the goals to ensure that the goals land and let the homework shine.

First, the forms are diverse and colorful.

Pupils are curious and interested in new things. Therefore, when designing homework, they should take various forms (letters, words, sentence patterns, dialogues, essays, short plays, etc.). ), let students participate in various organ activities, exercise basic knowledge, basic skills and application ability. The effective attention time of primary school students is short, so when implementing the principle of diversity, we should prevent the tendency of too many and complicated questions. The design of homework should be carefully selected and the workload should be controlled reasonably. For example, teachers should arrange optional homework according to students' different degrees, so that students can choose one or two they like. For example, after teaching "Happy New Year", give students the following optional homework:

(1) Draw a cartoon comparing Chinese and Western festivals with pictures and texts.

(2) Choose familiar nursery rhymes to arouse enthusiasm.

(3) Students with strong ability try to write a short essay and read it aloud to their classmates.

(4) At least be able to read the text fluently.

In this way, students who like painting will choose the first assignment. Then the teacher will organize students to evaluate each other and talk with pictures. In the process of drawing, writing and speaking, they will be familiar with the knowledge of this unit, while students who like singing can choose the second one, and replace their favorite songs with appropriate words or sentences, which will be fluent and beautiful to express. In this way, learning and singing together will greatly stimulate their interest without causing them homework pressure. For example, a student sang a Happy New Year song with the following lyrics:

Happy new year, happy new year.

Happy New Year to China and Britain.

In spring, in winter.

Happy New Year to China and Britain.

Happy new year, happy new year.

We decorate the Christmas tree.

We give presents and we sing Christmas songs.

Happy New Year in England.

For these assignments, teachers should check or spot-check them in time, and provide students with a stage to show their homework from time to time, such as holding an English corner to enrich the second classroom activities. Many students will show their usual homework of speaking, singing and performing in the activities.

Of course, homework should pay attention to the training of knowledge, skills and abilities, and it can also be an assignment to cultivate interest. For example, the production of some school tools. In addition, you can also go to the library and look for learning materials or practical activities through computers and networks as part of your homework to cultivate students' practical ability and innovative spirit.

Second, step by step, brilliant.

According to the procedures from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, from simple to complex, make homework questions. Give students orderly and step-by-step homework tasks, guide students to "climb the mountain step by step", let students taste the joy of success and stimulate their interest in completing homework. For example, the kinds of homework mentioned above can't be done in one breath. For example:

A, drawing to learn English, you can draw a single object and write words first, and then develop them into sentences, dialogues and even comic stories.

B, the lyrics can be written by simple children's songs, such as "What's your name? ","How are you "and so on. Put words or simple sentences into songs that students can sing well and create freely.

C, writing essays or sketches can combine the old with the new, from less to more, with 3-5 sentences and 5-7 sentences of low level. Of course, the stronger the better. Students who can't, teachers can even make up dialogues, leaving room for students to fill in words or sentences, and gradually let go of self-editing.

D, don't be greedy, cover it up.

Third, the combination of old and new is dazzling.

English has its own characteristics, and students need to review it frequently. The homework designed for this teacher should combine the old and new language materials organically. Let the students see how the new language materials are related to the language materials they have already learned. What sentence patterns are taught? What are they doing learning the present continuous tense? They are rowing dragon boats. After class, the teacher gives the students a picture of the activity scene from singular to plural, asks them to color it, and matches each picture with a dialogue in the present continuous expression. The teacher gives each picture a person and guides them to write what Li Shan/Lucy is doing. She is playing the flute. What are you doing? I/we are reading. What are they doing? They are playing football. The teacher added some dialogues before and after the picture to make the whole picture a coherent cartoon. In this way, the old and new knowledge are merged. In the next class, let the students bring their own pictures to communicate with each other, or talk in groups and act them out, and check their homework in the form of spot checks, so that students can feel how to re-integrate old and new knowledge. For example, after teaching the perfect food module, let students compare the differences between Chinese and western customs and food with the expression of festival module, and draw sketches by themselves, which is better.

Fourth, relaxed and happy, colorful.

The amount of homework should be moderate, on the premise of not increasing students' excessive academic burden. It is best to negotiate with several disciplines to control the daily amount, and don't let students attend to one thing and lose sight of another, so that students' rest time can not be guaranteed. For example, writing dialogue, acting and drawing mentioned above will take one to two weeks as a unit, and students will be assigned a theme assignment according to what they have learned during this period. Students will choose anything they like in drawing, singing, acting and writing dialogues. This is a teacher's homework to be randomly selected. It takes about 65,438+05 minutes to read the text taught this week 3-5 times a day with a tape recorder. In addition, guide students to study seamlessly, and play more English recordings before going to bed, eating or in their leisure time to create an English learning atmosphere for themselves.

Fifth, show interaction and richness.

In primary school English teaching, there are fewer homework, so it seems that homework can't be checked. No, as long as there is homework, whatever homework must be checked in time. However, at present, English teaching in primary schools has not been fully rolled out and there is a shortage of teachers. A teacher often has to face hundreds of students, so it is really difficult to correct homework one by one. what should he do ？ In fact, the ways to check the work are open and varied, such as:

1. Develop a variety of English interest activities, so that students can provide a space to show their homework.

A set up an English corner to provide a stage for students who love singing, performing and reading. Usually, each class provides 5 minutes to show the time and space of various assignments.

B holding school-wide activities such as singing English songs, telling English stories, reciting and giving speeches is also one of the forms of showing homework.

2. The combination of teachers and students plays the role of mutual evaluation and self-evaluation.

A. For writing assignments, teachers can take turns to correct them through spot checks, and excellent assignments can be displayed in the "learning garden" of each class as encouragement.

B, the teacher can't correct, set up a group leader among the students, and the group leader will check and record it on the registration form provided by the teacher. The teacher will check the registration form and supervise the completion of the homework.

C. Students set up their own growth bags, collect their own writing assignments, and record their own painting, singing, acting, reading and other assignments. After a period of time, they sum up themselves first, then communicate with each other, evaluate each other and promote each other.

Homework is not only the mutual feedback of teaching information between teachers and students, but also a bridge to connect and communicate the feelings between teachers and students. In homework, students' ideas and autonomous learning can be noticed by careful teachers. Similarly, teachers' comments on homework and the stage provided for them can also help students understand whether teachers are sincere, confident and responsible for them. Teachers must give practical encouragement to students' efforts; Express sincere appreciation and joy for their achievements and progress; We must point out the mistakes and negligence in students' homework in good faith and in an appropriate way; Be sympathetic and responsible to some underachievers. Praise should be appropriate, criticism should be tactful, and encouragement should be focused.

Modern educational psychologists believe that achievement motivation can stimulate people's learning motivation well. Students are eager for success, and the motivation for success is a huge emotional force, which can make students have the psychological impulse to take the initiative to seek knowledge, and this impulse will also be shown in doing homework. Therefore, when assigning homework to students, teachers should pay attention to copying as few rigid questions as possible, and copying more topics or questions that can be freely played properly, so that students with different degrees and hobbies have room to exert their imagination and opportunities to put forward different opinions, and then give praise and encouragement without losing the opportunity. Let homework become an extension of the classroom, radiate strange light, and become a wonderful work to assist English teaching!

How to Cultivate Primary School Students' English Writing Ability

(1) Grasp the standardization of writing in stability, accuracy and reality.

All behaviors must be restrained. "Without rules, there would be no Fiona Fang." Therefore, English writing must follow the rules. When teachers teach every new rule, they should standardize students by writing. This standardized practice should always be adhered to, otherwise it is easy to be preconceived. Only by adhering to standardized teaching can we lay a solid foundation for subsequent writing teaching and students gradually develop good writing habits. In my opinion, in English writing teaching, stability, accuracy and firmness are the key elements to standardize writing.

1. How to achieve "stability"?

When students begin to learn to write, they should first cultivate the habit of reading before writing, and open the first window so that students can learn to learn, be good at observation and induction. Once it is found that some students are eager to write without carefully reading and listening to the rules and steps written by the teacher, the teacher should stop it in time and concentrate the students' attention before giving an explanation.

2. How to be "accurate"?

The teacher's own style of writing is an example for students, so the teacher must demonstrate in place. Through teaching observation, it is found that some teachers' letters are tilted at too large an angle, Lian Bi wrote. Teachers can take the following measures while improving their own quality so that students can master the accuracy of writing.

(1) Use color teaching to solve the problem of confusing strokes.

(2) Hand-marking effectively solves the problem of stroke confusion.

(3) Help students summarize their writing skills.

Helping students summarize in time can get twice the result with half the effort. Teachers can use the following methods.

Help students write English with nursery rhymes and formulas.

When writing a letter, I infiltrated the following nursery rhyme.

The letters are written regularly, just five degrees to the right.

Capitalization is always in two spaces, and it is a principle not to top the line.

What about lowercase letters? Please be patient and look down:

There are two squares (B, D, H, K, L) on the head and two squares (G, Q, Y) on the tail.

The middle case (a, c, e, m, n, o, r, s, u, v, w, x, z) without "braid" and "tail",

Only f, j and p occupy three squares,

I, T, read the top one and a half squares carefully against the textbook.

The key to developing good writing habits is to practice repeatedly.

When teaching sentence writing format, I also used a jingle: "The first sentence is capitalized, the last sentence is punctuated, and the period is shortened to a point." . Don't stick words together when they are separated. A string of words can't be read by Sugar-Coated Berry. "With such interesting and vivid jingles, English sentence writing rules are quickly mastered and remembered by students.

● Grasp the typical letters for teaching.

Comparison between printing and writing: the capital printing of the letter I is the same as the capital printing of the letter L, and some students will write backwards when copying, which the teacher should emphasize.

3. How to be "malicious"?

The "malicious" here is "strict". Teachers should strictly guide students to practice writing letters. In the first step, they should practice blank while observing and master the order of strokes skillfully. The second step is to draw letters in red on the textbook; Step three, write on the copybook; The fourth step is to consolidate the exercises in extracurricular books.

According to the actual situation of students in our school, a list of students with poor writing ability and poor learning consciousness is established, and individual guidance is given in their spare time, combined with interesting exercises, which obviously improves students' writing level.

(2) Use diversified and interesting exercises to dispel the boredom and ineffectiveness of writing.

1. With interesting exercises, we can achieve the goal of effective consolidation.

In order to keep students' enthusiasm for learning English, it will be very attractive for students if teachers can design novel writing exercises and put an end to plagiarism and scribbling. When teaching letters, students are often asked to do such exercises. For example, write down the neighbors of a given letter, change the given letter to uppercase or lowercase, correct mistakes, etc. These forms not only speed up their mastery of letters, but also train their writing skills.

After senior three students can copy letters skillfully, they can try to copy words or further copy sentences and texts. At this time, students can be asked to do some topics that combine the requirements of letter writing, word writing and sentence writing, such as copying "This is my computer", changing capital letters into lowercase letters and writing a complete sentence. Let them continue to practice in an all-round way, gradually practice makes perfect, and flexibly master the writing of these letters and the changes between uppercase and lowercase letters.

2. Take the competition as the carrier to keep students' interest in writing.

In order to keep students interested in English writing, I launched a writing competition in my class for one semester. It is required that the writing in the exercise book must be standardized and beautiful. If the writing in each exercise book meets the requirements, please ask the group leader to draw two stars on the practice report card, and only one star is left for the irregular writing. Through intuitive form and timely evaluation, students' desire to write a good composition is stimulated and students are urged to complete each composition with high quality.

(3) Using hierarchical teaching and cooperative learning strategies to promote the development of each student's writing.

In writing practice, excellent students are required to write on a piece of white paper with a pencil and copy on a line grid-with a ballpoint pen or line grid-to strengthen the depth of writing and carry out "advanced education". For underachievers, we should lower our writing requirements, and haste makes waste. Ask them to copy the four-line grid with a pencil in a down-to-earth manner, and then gradually improve the requirements according to the specific situation.

(D) Effective and accurate evaluation to promote the progress of writing

1. Using peer teaching to stimulate students' writing potential

Peer plays a very important role in the learning process. When you find yourself better or worse than your peers, this feeling is often stronger than that from your parents. When you are better than your classmates, the sense of self-efficacy seems to be much easier and more effective than external encouragement. And when he is worse than his classmates, his sense of inferiority and shame will also strongly affect his behavior.

Using this psychology, in writing teaching, excellent writing assignments and poor quality assignments (not listed to maintain students' self-confidence in learning) will be exhibited at the same time (if the works of good friends can be exhibited at the same time, the effect will be better) for evaluation, which will give students who are behind in writing a visual impact and then reflect on their spirit and promote writing.

2. Humorous language evaluation and effective error correction.

Students' homework, I try to correct in class, and use humorous and inspirational language to give timely feedback, such as:

Sentence writing, words and words stick together: wow! So many candied haws! /You are so stingy! There is so little space for them that they can't breathe! Leave a space of one letter between words.

The first letter of the sentence is not capitalized: where is the boss of this sentence? The first letter of a sentence should be capitalized.

Full stop: this sentence is also a combination of Chinese and western! (English period should be solid, not hollow)

After listening to this humorous and harsh evaluation, students have a deep memory, the probability of making the same mistake is much less, and their writing assignments are also improved. In the face of students' progress, teachers should affirm in time.

How to correct and comment on English homework in primary schools

You need to pay attention to the way of assigning homework, and so does correcting homework. If the teacher adopts "arranged" revision of homework in batches, it will not only consume a lot of time for the teacher to study the syllabus and teaching materials, but also cause students to focus only on the results (right or wrong) and ignore the process (wrong reasons) when correcting the teacher's homework.

Below I made the following tentative corrections and comments on the operation method:

First, the combination of "rough reform" and "fine batch" is adopted. How to "rough reform"? For example, correcting the composition, if all of them are corrected, each class will take 50 people for one minute, which will take nearly an hour, which is both time-consuming and laborious. We might as well conduct spot checks according to the different levels of students, and then collectively correct typical mistakes. How to "fine approve"? That is to say, for all kinds of intensive consolidation exercises consisting of vocabulary, grammar or communicative terms that require "three skills" or "four skills", we should not only give comments on right and wrong, but also correct the mistakes made by students and point out the reasons for the mistakes. At the same time, the teacher should write his own postscript.

The combination of "rough revision" and "fine evaluation" can not only make teachers have a clear aim when commenting on exercises, but also let students know their knowledge defects and "prescribe the right medicine".

Second, let students combine "self-modification" with "mutual modification". What is "self-transformation"? That is, for those exercises with single questions and low requirements (such as word spelling, sentence filling or sentence structure transformation, judging right and wrong, etc. ), the teacher can ask the students to make corrections against the standard answers. How to "change each other"? That is, for exercises (such as completing dialogues, sentences, using language, etc. ) consists of "three meetings" and "four meetings" in the unit. The teacher first gives the necessary key tips, and then asks the students to exchange homework according to the tips and correct each other (or in the discussion). At the same time, teachers can give face-to-face counseling and correction to those students who are not interested in learning and have poor foundation (this can also enhance the emotional communication between teachers and students, eliminate the obstacles of students' thinking and learning, stimulate curiosity, help to "prevent mistakes" and avoid large-scale polarization).

Thirdly, the mode of combining "student evaluation" and "teacher evaluation" is adopted.

If you don't comment on the test paper, the effect will not be too good; But every time I comment, the teacher is not allowed in time and energy. At this time, the students' cooperative learning group played a role. Generally speaking, the team leader can basically do the test questions. They can explain to the team members instead of the teacher, and the team members can also discuss and communicate with each other. Finally, the teacher will make a centralized comment and analysis on the * * * mistakes in the homework, so that students can realize the causes of the mistakes and master the correction methods. This not only saves teachers' time, but also improves students' learning ability and cooperation spirit.

How do English teachers in primary schools do their jobs well?

1, formulate and implement the teaching plan.

As an English teacher in primary schools, we should first understand the guiding ideology, content and writing ideas of textbooks, design the main methods of classroom teaching, and make annual teaching plan, unit teaching plan and class plan according to the objectives and requirements of the syllabus and textbooks, so as to better realize the teaching objectives.

Implementing the teaching plan is the main task of teachers. How to implement it should be based on the following teaching links: review, new lesson introduction, demonstration, practice, consolidation, questioning, audio-visual teaching with multimedia, language expression, changing teaching methods, stimulating students' interest, and correcting mistakes.

2. Classroom teaching.

Classroom teaching is the basic form of today's teaching and the main place to fully implement quality education. Teachers' work in the classroom is mainly to realize the tasks of education, teaching and management. Teaching includes: reviewing, explaining, asking questions, guiding students to learn, organizing discussions, arranging students to practice, using various teaching methods, checking and giving feedback on students' knowledge and skills, etc. The teacher must let the students know what to learn in this class, so that every student has something to do. Students should follow the teacher's teaching ideas in class. Teachers should be good at stimulating students' interest in learning, mobilizing students' enthusiasm for learning, giving full play to students' main role, making students feel unfinished and full of expectations for the next class. Management includes: organizing teaching (using English as much as possible), dealing with accidental events in class, helping students to carry out individual education, praise and criticism, and so on.

3. Correct homework.

Correcting homework is one of the teachers' jobs. Generally, it includes class assignments, homework and exams. Homework is a kind of feedback from students. Teachers can find problems in time by correcting homework and improve in future teaching. And correcting homework is also an encouragement and supervision for students. If the teacher just assigns homework and doesn't correct it, the students won't take it seriously and perfunctory, and the teacher can't understand what problems the students have in their studies and can't be targeted.

4. Extracurricular activities.

English teachers in extracurricular primary schools should strengthen their contact with students and their parents. The specific work includes: ① preparing lessons, including consulting materials, researching teaching materials, compiling teaching plans, preparing teaching AIDS, making courseware and discussing teaching-related issues with other teachers. ② Understand the students, talk with them and consult their homework. (3) To guide extracurricular activity groups, such as organizing an "English corner", running English handwritten newspapers, blackboard newspapers, English radio stations and rehearsing English programs. So as to provide students with more opportunities and environments for natural language input.
