中文摘要:英语教育已深得社会重视数十载,它的地位在不久的将来亦不会有太大改变。尽管近些年来中高考改革,但是中国人民学习英语的热情仍旧浓烈。如今,小学英语教学虽已有所改善,但仍存在诸多问题。其中,教学方法单一,教师习惯于让学生背诵词汇表、孤立地记忆词汇的情况尤为突出。
本文用问卷调查、访谈、课堂观察实验等方法,研究歌谣创编在小学英语词汇教学中的运用情况,旨在探索用歌谣记忆单词的有效性,创新课堂教学方式,解决小学生记忆单词困难的问题。
根据研究可知,歌谣词汇教学方法在梅州地区的小学使用地较少。经过问卷、访谈和课堂观察等研究,发现学生对这种教学方法接受度较高,并表示愿意老师继续采用这种教学方法,与此同时,歌谣对词汇记忆有一定的作用,表现在词汇记得更牢固、印象更深刻等方面。
