In word teaching, we can make up some ballads and put the newly learned vocabulary in catchy rap or ballads, so that students can be more familiar with new words in a relaxed atmosphere during the rhythmic singing process. Students can also create their own books through group discussion according to the teacher's demonstration.
If it is difficult to make new creations, you can also adapt some simple children's songs, such as "Old McDonald has a farm", which can be used when teaching the names of small animals. Not limited to some animals in the original lyrics, children can be encouraged to think about other animals and imitate their calls, and join the songs to sing together.
2. Learn the words in the jingle.
When teaching English vocabulary in primary schools, we might as well connect some related words, such as words in a certain unit, and make them into jingles, which is convenient for students to remember and read aloud. For example, when teaching the word "color", we can say: red flag fluttering, white clouds floating, green oil, blue sky, yellow Huang Xiangjiao, black coal, orange like orange, brown like coffee.
3. Learn words in the game
"Games are children's nature". Obtaining knowledge through games is students' favorite way. Games can arouse the enthusiasm of students' thinking, guide their unintentional attention, turn boring teaching content into rich game activities, and let students actively participate in classroom teaching.
For example, after teaching fruits, you can put all kinds of fruits in an opaque bag and play the game of "guessing" together. If you guess correctly, give him a fruit reward. Another example is that after teaching food words, we can pretend to be hungry, touch our stomachs and say, "I'm hungry. Do you have any food for me? " With gestures, students can understand what you want to express more easily. They will share their own food and learn some vocabulary, which will also help to consolidate the feelings between teachers and students.
4. Learn words through association.
In fact, associative memory is often used when senior students learn English. For example, when learning the bookcase, you can compare and contact the books and cases you have learned before.
5. Learn the words in the visual objects.
The thinking characteristics of primary school students are mainly visual thinking in images. Intuitive teaching helps students to directly connect English words with real objects or situations, enhance the real execution and image sense of language, and deepen their perception and memory of vocabulary.
For example, use cards with cartoon images, use processed PPT, videos and so on. , can make students more intuitive impression and interest.
6. Learn words in sports
Psychological research shows that the ability to use multiple senses of eyes, ears, mouth and hands is far stronger than the ability of a single sense to acquire knowledge.
Fully mobilizing students' multiple senses can enable students to reach the highest level of knowledge acquisition. For example, after learning the words of human body parts, you can follow the rhythm of "health songs" and do this exercise: Han shakes your hand, kicks your legs and arms, pats your arms, and steps on your feet. Healthy people are much happier.
