But for pupils full of curiosity and imitation, this traditional English teaching method is not easy to be accepte

9、d and is less effective for improving their English level. However, the situational teaching method can achieve a good result in this regard. Based on the current situation of primary school English teaching, comparing the traditional English teaching method with the situational teaching method, the

10、 author thinks both of them have their merits. Therefore, the more reasonable primary English teaching method should combine these two teaching methods, and use them in an integrative way. In this paper, the author hopes that readers can understand the traditional English teaching method and the sit

15、t that China get closer and closer to the world, English has become one of the most important tools to communicate with the world for Chinese people and increasingly shown its charms in the stage of world. Based on this current situation, English teaching is bound to get much attention and is very n

16、ecessary to be improved-the first step is in the primary school. But the problem is that the traditional English teaching method lack of interest and is difficult to be accepted by those pupils who are very naughty and full of curiosity. So, the situational teaching method appeals to many teachers f

17、or its flexibility ,validity and full of imitative situation related to class. But there is also some disadvantages, such as the degree is difficult to control for teachers. This study, based on the situational teaching method, absorbing the traditional teaching technique, aims to find a way to impr

18、ove primary school students English teaching. 3 The Traditional Teaching Method and the Situational Teaching Method2.1 The Traditional Teaching Method The traditional teaching method has a very long history. Needless to say, the traditional teaching method is useful in the field of improving student

19、s score, especially in the English. The teacher always teaches the test points, and do not allow students to have some different opinions. That will do harm to the student creativity. The traditional teaching method is “inculcate the knowledge in a single way”. It is also called “Narration”. It is a

20、 comprehensive report and statement of meaning, in such a way that the teacher teaches on the platform, and students learn in their sit. The purpose of that teaching method is to explain or analyze the author and the content. So, in a word, the traditional teaching method is a method of interpreting

21、. 2.2 The Situational Teaching Method The situational teaching method just follows some rules of linguistics.Situational teaching method is originally called Oral Approach, which is developed by British applied linguists from 1930s (Shu Dingfang,1999.), and it has provided guidance to many well-know

22、n EFL/ESL textbooks and courses, including New Concept English written by Alexander, which is still used in China and known by most Chinese English learner. The concept of the situational teaching method is first projected by Brown, Collin, Duguidin in 1989. They published a study named Situated Cog

23、nition and the Culture of the Learning. They believed that “knowledge can be produced only when it is applied in the situation, knowledge can not be isolated from its environment, and the best method to learn knowledge is to carry it out in the context.” There are different kinds of expressions on t

24、he situational teaching method. “Situational teaching method is a kind of method through the use of the vivid scene, to arouse the students interest of learning, to improve learning efficiency.” (Gu Mingyuan,1999.) “Situational teaching method refers to create the problems with real event or circums

25、tance. Students are in the process of solving the incidents or problems, and understand the knowledge independently.” ( Zhang Hua, 2000.) Generally, the situational teaching method relies on the Construction Theory and the theory of Situated Cognition and Learning. Constructivism believes that topic

26、, situation, cooperation and resources are the four conditions to promote teaching. The emotional psychological researches show that the individual emotion has at least three functions on cognitive activities, these are motivation, strengthen and regulation. The situational teaching method is to aro

27、use students health and emotional experience in the process of teaching, and raise the enthusiasm of learning directly. The theory of learning underlying situational teaching method is Behaviorism, addressing more processes, than the conditions of learning. Palmer and Hornby are the main advocator o

28、f the situational teaching method (Shu Dingfang,1999.). Situational teaching method is an adaptation of the Hersery/Blanchard situational leadership model in which the instructor uses a variety of teacher centered and student centered strategies depending on the course content and the instructors us

29、e of active learning. Situational Teaching Method means a lively or concrete situation or scene the teacher establish with the emotional color by the body of image, in order to draw the students attitude experience, to help the students understand the textbook, and also improve the students mentalit

30、y development. The center of Situational Teaching Method is to motivate the studentsemotion. Make them learn actively and happily 3.Comparison Between the Traditional Teaching Method and the Situational Teaching Method3.1 The Traditional Teaching Method3.1.1 Advantages of the Traditional Teaching Me

31、thod Firstly, the traditional teaching method emphasizes the structure-function- communication teaching model, which can increase the input and the output of the language, and greatly improve the frequency of the target language training in the class. Secondly, through the traditional teaching metho

32、d, the materials that students learn are all provided by teacher. And the students task is to take them to remember, so it is relatively easy to learn for the students. Thirdly, the traditional teaching method prefers to stress analysis of the language structure, vocabulary, sentence structure and g

33、rammar learning. So, it can greatly improve the accuracy of the language use, and is accepted by many English teachers.3.1.2 Disadvantage of the Traditional Teaching Method Firstly, as we all know childrens language acquisition should be carried on in the real context of practice experience. The tra

34、ditional teaching method emphasizes the structure and function of the language, and neglect childrens Language Acquisition Law, so the result of the teaching is not very ideal. Secondly, with the teacher as the center, it ignores the students is the learning subject status. The traditional teaching

35、method will decrease students learning interest, and make the teaching effect inefficient. Because the traditional teaching method is completed in the guidance and control of teachers, thus it also brings two results: one is that the students follow the prescribed order that teachers taught, the cur

36、iosity and creativity is suppressed; the other is students are not interested in the content, and less or not participate in the activities. Thirdly, it is full of risk and unpredictability in the real communication environment. The speaker cant anticipate what the others say and cant prepare to the

37、 answer. So, the traditional teaching method is lack of practical applicability. 3.2 The Situational Teaching Method3.2.1 Advantages of the Situational Teaching Method Situational teaching method means in the teaching process, the teacher purposefully introduce or create certain vivid concrete scene

38、, to arouse student certain emotional experience, thus help students understand teaching materials. English teaching activity is that the teachers and students in class have ideological, cultural, knowledge exchange activities, and make listening, speaking, reading and writing closely linked. So, th

39、e situational teaching methods advantages are following: Firstly, situational teaching method is fit to students psychological characteristics and age characteristics. Secondly, In fact, creating scenes is the essence of situational teaching method, and pupils are interested in scenes. Therefore, cr

40、eating scenes is the best advantage of the situational teaching method which can stimulate students interest. Situational teaching method can motivate students to learn English. Stimulating pupils interest in learning is one of the important functions and purposes of the Situational Teaching Method.

41、 Raising students interest is a premise for teaching. There is a saying: Interest is the best teacher. It can make people concentrate on their work, and have enthusiasm, pleasant emotional experience for study. Teachers should be brimming with enthusiasm to teaching activities with superb teaching a

42、rt to create an attractive teaching scene. Thirdly, Concentration on Pupils Attention Scenes can draw students attention. Foreign language teaching can make students consistently remain attention. To make students focus on the study, teachers can not rely on orders and requirements, but depend on th

43、e scientific and artistic teaching activities. Naturally students can be attracted by the contents. About the teaching techniques, teachers can use the classroom and various materials.On one hand students can concentrate on learning in such a scene. On the other hand, students could understand natur

44、al and authentic meanings, and the English teaching procedure may become very vivid. Fourthly, the situational teaching can make the classroom in a good atmosphere. Creating a good atmosphere in the classroom is a key to motivate students and improve teaching quality. By using imaginative scenes in

45、classroom teaching, the atmosphere can reach climax. For example, through simulating call, asking for directions, shopping, buying tickets, students can play a variety of roles, and repeat to use various words and sentences. The Situational Teaching Method provides a lot of opportunities to speak, s

46、o it can increase students interest in learning and activate classroom atmosphere. Last, it is well-known that human beings begin to know the world from feelings and perception in the beginning. Perception is the premise of recognition of other activities. Without perception, there is no awareness. The process of perception is close to the existence of objective reality. Teaching English in the actual scene will not only enhance English language training, but also develop children s intelligence. Through the practice of the language, students develop their thinking ability through the t
