Teachers can improve the vocabulary teaching and students can get good effect in their vocabulary learning. 2. Problem Analysis
9、 In foreign language teaching and learning, vocabulary learning is one of the hottest topics among language learners and teachers, for vocabulary ability is essential in developing the language abilities of learners. In language teaching research fields, researchers and teachers are concerned with q
10、uestions like: how to help the students learn vocabulary actively and effectively, how to improve their abilities of using vocabulary, how to Taking the above factors into consideration, the following solutions were proposed:a, to show learners about more objects or pictures in order to help the lea
11、rners to learn the vocabularyb, to choose an interesting simplifies reading text like In the Beginning (Christopher, 1972), Of Mice and Men (Winks, 1975) Animal Farm (Orwell, 1945) which is at a vocabulary level well below the learners for 10 or 15 minutes each day trying to keep the learners intere
12、sted in the story. c, to control the teachers spoken language to help the learners to learn the vocabulary.d, to ask the learners to provide the missing word to help the learners to review the vocabulary learned.3. Possible Solutions Taking the above factors into consideration, the following solutio

15、ed.4. Project Objective This project is aimed to be impossible for students to remember all of words in a short time and motivate the students in English learning through the process of vocabulary teaching.5. Project Hypotheses Considering the age factors of the students: the process of vocabulary t
16、eaching can help students to master these vocabularies gradually and thus motivate the students to learn English happily.6. Project Rationale The vocabulary teaching and learning is an important aspect in language teaching and learning. D.A. Wilkins said “we can not express anything if there is not
17、vocabulary” and P.S. Carder said “It is ok without grammar if you give a dictionary to me.” Although many foreign language learners vocabulary development has different, their studies in different stages show different characters. Therefore, teachers should have important spots about vocabulary lear
18、ning in different stages. M Psychological studies indicated that human beings mainly depend on eyes and ears to obtain information. Experiments indicate that the information received by ear will remain 60% in memory after 3 hours and only 40% after 3 days, while the information obtained both by ear
19、and eye will remain 90% in memory after 3 hours and still 75% after 3 days. Application of in English teaching will create language circumstances for students and mobilize their enthusiasm in thinking in images, for the abstract language materials to turn into concrete images. When a persons daily c
20、ommunication needs change, then the words may become a part of the “motivated “active vocabulary motivation is one of the most important factors in learning a foreign language. They are not only better ways to learn the vocabulary, but also helpful to their motivation.7. Research Design7.1 Subjects
21、For this research, I chose the classes of my students as subjects, one as the Experimental Group, the other as the Control Group. The experimental and control groups were randomly selected by the process of vocabulary teaching. Throughout the project, the Experimental Group will receive the new meth
22、ods to learn the vocabulary. while the control group goes on with the old methods of vocabulary . 7.2 Procedure This project lasted four months from February in 2010 to July in 2010.7.3. Stages to follow1. Some Principles of Vocabulary Teaching 1). The Stage Principle of Vocabulary Teaching 2).The P
23、rinciple of Further Processing3).The Principle of Guessing Word Meanings 2. Methods of Vocabulary Teaching and Learning 1). Learning through Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing 2). Using High-frequency words 3). The Special and Comprehensive Training for Reviewing 7.4 Techniques for Data Collec
24、tion During this research two techniques were adopted, namely questionnaire and test. To gather information for the design of the research and to test whether the research is effective, two questionnaires will be issued, one at the beginning of the research and the other at the end. Two tests will b
25、e included (one as the pretest, the other as the post test for comparison) to test the co-efficiency between motivation and school recording.8. Project ImplementationAlthough many foreign language learners vocabulary development is different, their studies in different stages show different characte
26、rs. This time, I gave students some Stage Principles of Vocabulary Teaching to help them learning vocabulary in much training of listening, speaking, reading, writing. Next, there are some advices around the three stages of teaching.Some Principles of Vocabulary Teaching 8.1.1. Three stages of Vocab
27、ulary Teaching During the period, Chinese English learners are green hands for English, because English and Chinese have very different in pronunciation and writing system, adding the word form way of English and its formation, both are completely different from Chinese. English vocabulary learning
28、is a difficult thing. This time, I gave students some advices around the three stages of teaching.1) The Junior Stage For this point, I paid more attention to explain and trained these English high-frequency words and emphasized that learners learn vocabulary during communication because that can ma
29、ke learners get and understand vocabulary accurately and improve their ability to use these vocabulary. My name is TOM WHITE. WHITE For example 1: When I taught the color word white through the color of the clothes, first, I showed the picture And then, I pointed to the cap and asked: What color is
30、it? Let the students answer: “Its white” .Next I pointed at the boy called Tom White in the picture and asked: “Who is he?” Let the students answer: “He is Tom White.” “He is Mr. White” I said like this a few times in order to make the students understand the word white meanings I taught the words r
31、ed Red, brown Brown, green Green for students like that.2) The Middle Stage When learners finish learning the basic vocabulary, they get to the middle stage. At this time, learners can read some common materials. For example: on march 17th in 2010,I taught 2 in Section D from Book 1 Unit 5 Topic 3 l
32、ike following:1.Let students read 2 after the tape 2. Let students answer the following questions:1) What does Li Mei do? 2) What are in their school newspaper? 3) Why does Li Mei like Science Today best? 4) How does Li Mei like their school newspaper?3. Check the answers of the questions and then l
33、et students read 2 again and underline the news words “February”, “hard” and “wish”. From the example, you can know more clearly. I not only need learners to relate formation, pronunciation and meanings of words together, but also make learners try their best to understand the match, association mea
34、ning of words and so on.Run until the end of the line. For example: When I taught the differences of the words “speak talk and tell. ”I asked the students to finish the following sentences through the pictures:What color is it?I speak Japanese: 1.The boy is telling his dog something that it is runni
35、ng.2.Now, Hellen is singing in Japanese on the playground. She must speak Japanese. 3. The red sock girl is talking about the color with the green and white sock boy. From the sentences, I choose some unfamiliar words run, Japanese, what , color, is, it, playground and so on to help students to unde
36、rstand the sentences meanings so that they can learn and master the differences of tell, speak and talk.3) The Senior Stage In this period, with vocabulary size increasing and language skills improving, most of the learners enlarge their vocabulary size by incidental learning. For example: When I ta
37、ught the vocabularies hot dog, sandwich and potato. First, I guided students to reappear the vocabularies through the pictures and then let them say the vocabulary Chinese meanings which learners learnt, and trained the ability of guessing words. Second, I introduced words origin through the stories
38、 of hot dog, sandwich and a hot potato. According to the research, that can cause students interest in independent learning vocabulary. At this time, the study of vocabulary at some extent has connected with reading teaching. 8.1.2. The Principle of Further Processing In dealing with new vocabulary,
39、 learners must pay more attention to require the quality of exercises design. Learners can strengthen and internalize vocabulary knowledge by doing exercises avoiding amount and low level of repetition. Example: When I taught the new words of Section B from Unit 1 topic 2, I did like this:1. Let stu
40、dents look at the star photo and then fill the banks with the words in the table. Excuse me whats where the U.S.A from 1) _, who is she? She is Deng Yaping. 2)_ her name? 3) _ isShe _? Is she from _? No, she isnt. She is from China.2. Then teach and explain the new word : Excuse me , Whats = What is
41、 , Where , the USA. from.8.1.3The Principle of Guessing Word Meanings Using the context and word formation to guess words meanings, to promote vocabulary learning is a controversial topic in education system. I think guessing word is good for vocabulary learning, because the person who is good at gu
42、essing words can acquire more vocabulary from reading. These all explain that improving the ability of guessing words is good for incidental learning of increasing vocabulary. Example1: When I lead my students to learn the words like driver, cook,. teacher and famer ect. I use the following steps:Fi
43、rst show the pictures. Then, say: “she works in a car she is driving the gray car now”. Next, let the learners guess: what does she do? Last, I lead them to say” driver” and learn the word driver.Example 2 : Let students learning the word “which” “easy” “interesting” through the following sentences:
44、1) A: Which subject do you like best? B: I like English best. 2) A: Why do you like it? B: Because it isnt difficult and boring, it is easy and interesting.From the example: you know the students learn the new words by using the words “ subject” “English” “because” “difficult” “boring” to guess thei
45、r meanings .8.2Methods of Vocabulary Teaching and Learning 8.2.1. Learning through Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing 1). Learning through Listening (1). Activities are to turn a Reading vocabulary into a Listening vocabulary. Learners need to have the chance to transfer their reading vocabula
46、ries to listening. Quaintly of listening experience is important along with some help to see the written spoken connection. For example: My School Life Hi, Im Hu Bin, a student of Class 1, Grade 7. At school, my teachers and classmates are very friendly to me. My school life is very interesting, I l
47、ike it very much . Classes begin at 8:00 a.m. I have four classes in the morning and two classes in the afternoon. I study Chinese, math, English, biology, politics geography and some other subjects. English is my favorite subject, and I often speak English with my classmates. I also like P.E. and music. But I dont like math very much, I think it is a little difficult and boring. What do you think?After school, I often play basketball with my classmates. Its my favorite outdoor activity. Sometimes I swim in the swimming pool. Sometimes I draw pict
