小学英语教学的文化意识培养
小学英语教学的文化意识培养 兴化市周庄中心小学谢静 【摘要】语言和文化是密不可分的。语言是文化的载体，语言所传递的文化信息是英语教学内容中不可忽视的重要组成部分。因此本文指出了培养文化意识的重要性，并提出培养学生文化意识的策略。【关键词】文化意识英语教学 一、文化的概念 “文化”一词包含着极丰富的内涵。文化的经典定义由英国人类学家泰勒(EdwardTylor)1871年在《原始文化》(Primitive Culture)一书中提出：文化是一个“复合的整体(complex whole)，其中包括知识、信仰、艺术、法律、道德、风俗以及作为社会成员而得的任何其他的能力和习惯。”功能学派大师马林诺夫斯基(Bronilsaw Malinowski)则认为：“文化显然是完整的全体(integral whole)，其中包括器具与消费货物，各种社群的宪章，人们的思想与工艺，信仰与习惯等。”这两位学者分别代表了狭义文化观和广义文化观。文化包括许多层次和方面，如信仰、习惯、艺术、法律、道德、人情风俗、历史事件等等，真可谓无处不在，无所不包，因而具有广泛性、历史性和多维性。《英语课程标准》指出：“文化是指所学语言国家的历史地理，风土人情，传统习俗，生活方式，文学艺术，行为规范，价值观念等，接触和了解英语国家的文化，有益于对英语的理解与认识，有益于培养世界意识。”从语言的特征和文化的范畴与内容来看，语言与文化的关系是十分密切的。语言既是文化的一个重要的组成，又
是文化的载体。学习一种语言，就必须了解这种语言所代表的文化，不然将无法正确理解和运用这种语言。这些年的英语教学实践，使我深切地体会到，在向学生教授英语时，将英语与它所承载的文化紧密地结合起来的重要性。只有培养学生的文化意识，让他们明白中英文化的异同，才能确实提高学生的英语水平，达到学以致用的目的，从而使小学英语教学再上一个新台阶。 二、培养文化意识的必要性和可行性 长期以来，在英语教学中语言和文化的这种关系一直未得到足够的重视。很多教育者似乎认为只要进行听，说，读，写的训练，掌握了语音，词汇和语法规则就能理解英语和用英语进行交流。而实际上由于不了解语言中所蕴含的文化背景，在英语学习和用英语进行交流中屡屡出现错用或误用的现象。美国的语言学家沃尔夫森（）说:“在与外族人交谈时，本族人对于他们在语言和语法方面的错误往往比较宽容;与此相比，违反说话规则时则被认为是不够礼貌的，因为本族人不可能认识到社会语言学的相对性。以"dog "一词为例，在语言意义上，中国的"狗" 与英美国家的 "狗"没有区别，但两个文化群体里的"狗"的文化意义又相差甚远。"狗"一词在中国人看来总是贬义的，汉语中常用"走狗"、"丧家犬"、 "狗仗人势"等来形容所厌恶的人。但是英语国家的人对狗的看法与我们截然不同，他们认为“狗”是人类最好的朋友，忠诚可靠。所以“dog "在英语中往往含有褒义，如love me, love my dog.（爱屋及乌）；a lucky dog（幸运儿）。又如；中国人喜欢以对方为中心考虑对方的情感,如:你感觉怎么样?

英语社团工作活动总结 英语社团工作活动总结范文一 为了丰富同学们的校园文化生活，在学院团总支的领导下，以营造英语氛围，争取让会员说一口流利的英语为宗旨，以告别聋哑英语为目标，以采取多种形式组织会员积极开展活动为主要任务，不断提高广大同学的英语水平，本着“求实、创新”的精神为广大会员服务。我们天英社将会在去年活动的基础上，把今年的工作重点放在能力培养上。今年工作的重点是努力使天英社一切工作开展的更加顺利，充分调动社团干部和干事的积极性和集体荣誉感，结合天英社实际情况，特制定本学年工作计划如下： 一、培养服务意识，全心全意为广大会员服务。 天英社“以会员为本，为会员服务”的指导思想，坚持“求实、创新、开拓、进取”的工作作风。加强协会自身建设，培养优秀的高素质会员，特此我们将举行一次大学生素质拓展训练和干部培训大会。 及时了解和反应会员们的要求和愿望，帮助会员们解决学习中遇到的困难，维护会员们的基本利益，倾听会员们的呼声满足会员们的要求。我们将会举行一次四六级总动员大会。 二、立足现状，开展独具特色的文化活动，提高同学们的英语水平
现状分析：有些同学词汇量大，应试能力高，但是简单的生活用语却成了问题，以致不能自然溶于其中，以致感到英语学习枯燥无趣;有些同学基本功不扎实，单词拼写出错，句子结构出错，应试技巧欠缺，听说读写技能各有不足，未能齐头并进。因此活动特别安排： 1. 提高口语水平，锻炼当众英语的胆量，每两周举办一次英语角活动，让会员们相聚在一起，用英语交流，营造英语氛围，大家互帮互助，共同提高。 2. 邀请有经验的老师或同学开展相应的经验交流活动，向会员们介绍有关英语过级考试的方法和策略，使会员们有的放失，掌握应试技巧，轻松过级。 3. 周五或周六播放原声电影，时间征求大家意见，开学后做一个简单的调查，让会员们领略西方文化，品位欧美风情，挺高听与读的能力。 4. 定期举办天英杯英文歌曲大赛，英文朗诵大赛，增强同学们驾驭英语的能力，提高同学们自身表达能力和英语口语应用能力。 5. 开展ro-play大赛和free-talk等，以灵活形式让英语融入到同学们的生活中去，增强同学们的学习英语的兴趣。 三、大力加强天英社干部队伍建设，不断提高社团干部的综合素质 1. 本学期将在扎实的工作的基础上，更加合理规划各部职能，明确分工。提高办事效率，推动社团活动正常有序的发展。通过制定内部量化管理制度与对外量化管理制度积极鼓励会员和会委形成良好的素质，分工到个人，实行责任制。 2. 通过交流经验和学习研讨会的形式，使社团干部素质得到提高。 3. 深入实际，一切从实际出发，避免干部队伍中的空想与实际，确保活动的开展切实有效。 4. 加强内部团结，积极热烈的参与社团活动讨论，集思广益，使社团活动

英语教育实习调查报告
英语教育实习调查报告 英语教育实习调查报告 组成教学系统的基本要素是学生、教师与课程、客观世界（英语语言）。怎么把三者有机结合起来，收到最佳效果，是我实习期间向来考虑的咨询题。经过校外实地教学，我意识到，能否调动学生学习英语的主动性和积极性，是教学成败的关键。因此，实习期间我就怎么调动学生主动性、积极性这一咨询题展开了调查。 调查对象是我任课的天津普育学校的学生，调查以咨询卷形式进行，共收回有效答卷310份。调查的题目共六个: （1）对英语课的兴趣; （2）英语课上的主动性积极性的重要性; （3）英语教学的交际特点; （4）师生关系对英语教学的妨碍; （5）在课堂教学中师生的角色与作用; （6）你心目中的英语教师。统计分析如下： 一、学习兴趣对发挥主动性、积极性的妨碍事情 类型: 百分比% 喜欢90 29 普通150 49 别喜欢70 22 总310 100 从上表能够看出，喜欢上英语课的和别喜欢的比例基本持平，中间部分比例较大，呈两极分化态势。说明学生对待英语课的态度观点鲜亮，它直接妨碍到课堂教学效果。 学生们喜欢英语课的原因要紧有：认为英语课很重要，是新世纪的需要；当前就业的通行证；喜欢接触新事物。 别喜欢英语课的原因，按教师和学生自身因素从两方面分析：（一）老师因素：现今教学传授知识的手段是“灌"。并没有带动学生去感觉英语，教会其学习办法。教学步骤公式化，课堂上说得多，让学生参与的少，致使学生被动同意，思维别活跃。 （二）学生自身因素：本身英语基础不行。学得越多，越听疑惑、记别住，丧失信心，从而对老师及其所教内容产生恐怖厌烦心理。 二、学生对课堂上老师调动其主动性、积极性，重要性的认识 从调查结果显示，百分之九十以上的学生可以认识到课堂上主动性积极性的调动与发挥是极其重要的。因为学习是自已的事，不管教师说得多么好，别调动学生学习的积极性，是不管怎么也学不行的。学生是学习的主人，惟独充分发挥学生的主观能动作用，学生才会乐意攻读，积极思维，主动进取。 三、学生怎么看待交际能力这一英语教学要紧用途 调查咨询卷的统计结果表明，百分之八十以上的学生认为培养英语交际能力是学习的最要紧目的。因为语言是交际的工具，学习语言是为了互相沟通、了解，算是为了交际。 四、学生对师生关系妨碍教学的意见 这一调查数字是出乎意料又是合乎情理的。几乎百分之百的学生特别看重师生关系，认为它的好坏对教学效果有直接妨碍。这一结果与平时看似冷淡的师生共处场面截然相反。由此可见教与学并别只在课堂短短的四十分钟和别大的教室内发生作用，它远远超出了这一范围，涉及课下的方方面面诸多因素，教师的人格魅力也起着举脚轻重的作用。学生们为搞好师生关系提了很多有效的建议。摘录如下： 以诚相待，对学生像朋友，别摆架子，有时开开玩笑，给学生们以亲切感；利用课间、
