篇2：英语新教材学习心得
参加小学英语新课程标准骨干教师培训，听取程晓堂老师的讲解我感觉收获很多，进一步明确了如何才能成为一名合格的小学英语教师，通过学习有几点体会：
一、把握课改方向
通过学习，我了解课程突出体现课程对国家发展和学生发展的意义，为学生学好英语打好基础，提高语言运用能力加强对学生综合素质的培养。把发展学生的综合语言能力，使语言学习的过程成为学生形成积极的情感过程。主动思维和大胆实验提高跨文化意识和形成自主学习能力的过程做为中心任务。所以要求教师必须以此为教学方向，在教学工作中运用各种方法激发和培养学生学习英语的兴趣，使学生养成良好的学习习惯和形成有效的学习策略，从而形成一定的综合运用语言的能力。
《英语新课程标准》以描述学生“用英语做事”为主线，强调培养学生综合语言运用能力。在做事的过程中发展语言能力，思维能力，以及交流与合作能力。
二、处理好教师和学生的关系
新课程强调教学过程是师生交往，共同发展的互动过程。在教学过程中要处理好传授知识与培养能力的关系，注重培养学生的独立性和自主性，引导学生质疑、调查、探究、在实践中学习，使学习成为在教师指导下主动的，富有个性的过程.教师应尊重学生的人格，关注个体差异，满足不同需要，创设能引导学生主动参与的教育环境，激发学生的学习积极性，培养学生掌握和运用知识的态度和能力，使每个学生都能得到充分的发展。教师要了解学生的情感态度，帮助学生及克服情感态度方面的困难，使语言学习上的成功体验与情感态度的发展相互促进。
三、运用任务型教学途径
任务型教学就是以具体的任务为学习动力或动机，以完成任务的过程为学习的过程,以展示成果的方式来体现教学的成就。通过学习,我明白了任务型教学是双边或多边的交互式活动，在活动中所学的语言是实际的工具,其价值能得到充分的体现.有利于提高学习的知觉性。它有教明确的具体目的，有利于激励学习积极性。在任务型教学中，教师的角色比较丰富,教师从全面出发、观察、控制课堂的发展。
教育的工具与人文性以及语言学习的渐进性与持续性特点：
1、注重素质教育，体现语言学习对学生发展的价值;
2、面向全体学生，关注语言学习者的不同特点和个体差异;
《英语新课程标准》的教学建议中提到“尊重每个学生，建立融洽、民主的师生交流渠道。”
3、整体设计目标，充分考虑语言学习的渐进性和持续性;
4、强调学习过程，重视语言的学习实践性和应用性;
5、优化评价过程，着重评价学生的综合应用运用能力;
《英语新课程标准》的基本理念中提到“英语教学中提倡过程性评价方式，把对学生的评价贯穿到平常的学习过程之中。注重培养和激发学生学习的积极性和自信心，丰富课程资源，拓展英语学习的渠道。
学生在学习过程中进行情感态度和学习策略的调整，以形成积极学习态度，促进语言实际运用能力的提高。要求我们英语老师要掌握一定的课堂和课外教学艺术，开展集趣味、知识、娱乐、教育于一体的英语活动，能为学生提供尽可能多的语言实践机会。教师要用直观形象的形体语言，丰富多彩的表情，幽默风趣的语言表达，使学生在轻松、愉快、和谐的氛围中复习旧知，学习新知，提高学习信心。
教学中教师要根据教学目标，学生的需要和客观条件，创造性地探索有效的教学方法，要学会活用教法解难点。 我们可以鼓励学生大胆地模仿，带表情说句子。
四、加强自身修养
《英语新课程标准》的基本理念中提到“合理利用和积极开发课程资源，给学生提供贴近学生实际、贴近生活、贴近时代的内容和丰富的课程资源;要积极利用音像、电视、书刊杂志等丰富的教学资源，拓展学习和运用英语的渠道。”
这就要求我们英语老师要自觉加强中外文化修养，拓展知识面。在课外要经常收听英语广播，收看英语讲座，观看英文电影，经常进行纯正的口语训练。在课堂上要尽量多说英语，且语音语调要好、要美，要不厌其烦，让他们慢慢体验理解。尤其是一些常用的指令性的句子，要求每个学生都能听懂。
备课时，我觉得备得越细越好，教师在备课时心里要很清楚，先吸引后激活，在最初的几分钟就让你的课活起来。学生想说什么就说什么，不要怕乱，学生猜得对否并不重要，重要的是学生在说的过程中进行大量的口语练习。学生大胆发言，错了也没有关系重在参与。学生在参与的过程中，在语言的输入输出中，不知不觉地提高了综合语言运用能力，学生积极参与，积极思维，创造出了一种非常和谐、非常宽松、非常happy的氛围。
我将在以后的教学工作中大胆尝试新课程标准，不断提高教学水平，激发学生的学习积极性，培养学生掌握和运用知识的态度和能力，使每个学生都能得到充分的发展。
篇3：英语新教材学习心得
一直以来我都觉得当一名好老师是很难的，要当好一名英语老师更是困难，在付出艰辛工作的同时感慨现在的学生难教，究竟是什么原因使英语教学越来越摸不着头脑，也许我们是该放下冗重的作业负担，加入到正确解读小学英语课程标准的队伍中，找到根源，由此发散开来，帮助自己的英语教学得到更好的过渡。今年寒假，学校让我们再认真研读课程标准，毕竟它是指引、帮助我们开展教学工作的指挥棒和教学依据。《英语课程标准》在课程目标，内容标准和实施建议上作了全面的阐述。
在课程目标上，各个层次上分为九级，每个级别上作了不同的要求，从知识难度和情感能力上每级各有不同，基础级别是一级和二级，高级别是九级，从一年级到十二年级上形成一个完善的知识体系，得到了学习知识的系统性和完善性，比以前较乱也不统一的现象得到了改进，教材上也根据不同的级别有所选择，保证了百花齐放的多选择性和灵活性，做到有统有分。
在内容标准上面：语言技能，语言知识、情感态度和学习策略文化教育上都作了明确的要求，在这个方面保持了完整性，根据内容的不同它的分级标准和目标也有所不同。在这方面，新大纲就特别强调它的文化性，所以在教材上和标准上都有文化意识和现象的学习。以听、说、读、写四个方面的技能，强调“学生能做什么”为主要内容，目的就是加强语言在实际中的运用，这也和现实的要求相等的。
在教学的实施实施建议上，《课程标准》注重灵活性，没有只是单一注重和教材相结合，而是注重它和原始教材挖掘新的功能语言项目，充分挖掘语言功能。通过使用各种不同的技术达到教学质量和效果。也注重评价的多样性，在情感和知识上进行评价。
在具体的教学工作中，在课程标准的指引下，我们要：
一、根据学情，改变教学方式，激发学生内心的学习热情
教师要采用多变的教学方法和教学手段，尤其是在三年级的教学中，这个年龄段的孩子具有好奇、好动、爱表现、善模仿等特点。他们喜欢新鲜事物，对陌生语言的好奇心能激起他们对外语的兴趣。他们喜欢引起别人的注意，重视老师的表扬，不怕犯错，很少有羞怯感。他们的发音器官较成人的灵活，因此模仿外语的语音远比成年人容易。他们的记忆力好，形象思维好，但缺乏理性思维，逻辑思维不强。他们爱玩、爱唱、爱游戏、爱活动，他们坐不住，坐不久。因此，在学生学习过程中，教师可采用各种方法：表演法、竞赛法、游戏法等，让他们在快乐中幸福地学习英语，我们可以鼓励学生大胆地模仿，带表情说句子，把自己的想法、感受给表现出来，还可以鼓励学生上讲台当小老师，让他们模仿教师平时上课的动作、表情，鼓励他们用课堂用语：stand up very good sit down 等。还可以根据孩子们天生活泼好动的性格，用英语歌曲导入，组织课堂教学。
我们还可根据小学生的思维具有直观性、形象性特点，应用事物、图片、简笔画、幻灯片等直观教学手段，激发学生强烈的学习兴趣。
二、注重学生听说能力，培养学生良好的英语素质
第一、我们的学生学习英语就是缺乏英语语言环境，作为老师应尽量用英语组织教学，给学生提供浓厚的英语语言学习氛围，从学生刚接触英语开始，我就用英语课堂用语，首先是一些常用的句子：Hello ! Good morning Good afternoon! Stand up Listen to me Read after me 等，以后每节课坚持使用，并逐步增加句数，日积月累，学生基本听得懂简单的课堂用语，增强了学习英语的自信心，在课堂上营造了生活中的情景，使课堂生活化，贴近实际生活，让学生在自己熟悉的环境中探究新知，为以后的学习打下扎实的基础。
第二、 通过与家长的沟通，教授辅导孩子学英语的方法。大部分家长没有英语基础，因此觉得辅导孩子学英语是最难的事。要通过与家长交流、沟通，让他们明白：他们在家帮助孩子学英语仅仅是监督和鼓励的角色，应该每天监督孩子去听读英语，及时给予孩子鼓励，有问题可以让孩子及时与老师取得联系，并帮助解决。
三、我们还应该加强对学生的学法指导
多鼓励，少责备，常给学生“减负”。多和学生平等地交流学习英语的体会，及时了解学生英语学习中遇到的困难，以便能够及时解决。多采用分层教学，无论是课堂设计，还是作业布置以及词汇、课文默写，针对不同层次的学生应有不同的侧重点。比如基础较差的学生要背诵大纲所要求的词汇和词组，而基础较好的同学除此以外，可以适当扩大词汇量，增加阅读量和课文的背诵。
同时，教师应建立良好的师生关系，加强师生间的情感沟通，在课堂教学中培养积极向上的情感态度，注意与学生情感沟通和交流的方式、时间和场合。多采用合作学习，培养合作精神，多使用鼓励性语言，增进师生间的情感沟通。在英语教学中关注和培养小学生的积极情感态度，有利于强化学生的学习效果，增强他们学习英语的自信心和培养他们的合作意识，使教学达到事半功倍的效果。

Integrating skills
Fill in the blanks for the revision
Advertising is a highly developed industry. It has gone hand in hand with radio, television and other media.
People react to ads in different ways. Some think ads are useful and help consumers
make informed choices while others accuse companies of using ads to mislead us. Companies can influence customers’ choices by introducing a brand name and by associating products with customers’ needs. There are so many ads for customers that advertisers must try to get their message across by appealing to their emotions.
Ads help companies and customers in all kinds of ways. They can help companies increase sales . At the same time , they help customers choose among all the available products. In fact, truthful ads provide good information,and help customers compare feathers, functions and costs. Some governments name a famous person as their spokesman or spokeswoman to make people aware
of their social problems and policies.
Customers should protect themselves by keeping an eye out for bad ads, telling false information from real facts and making good choices.
