In the practice of education and teaching, the school has always adhered to the overall development idea of "running a school with high standards (high taste and high quality), developing with characteristics and demonstrating one side", and with the aim of "serving the development of teachers and students and letting them experience the happiness of education", it has built a school-running mode of "optimizing the educational environment and fully implementing quality education" and explored the transformation from "educating people" to "educating people". As the experimental base school of the China Education Association's Committee for the Overall Reform of Primary and Secondary Schools and the Foreign Language Experimental School of the National Basic Education Experimental Center, the school has actively promoted the new curriculum reform, fully implemented the new curriculum standards, carried out forward-looking and effective teaching reform activities, deepened the reform of the methods of "teaching" and "learning" in classroom teaching, formed an operational chain of "reducing burdens, promoting learning and improving quality", and comprehensively improved the teaching quality. In the past three years, the primary school language in the whole region has improved.
Recently, Shenhe District Second Economics and Second School has established the goal of "light burden, high quality and living". It is required to reduce students' excessive burden, improve teaching quality and make the campus alive. Facing the new educational goal, the school proposes that teachers should first change themselves. The new development of teaching makes "old teachers and experienced teachers" no longer popular. Now parents and students like "comprehensive teachers" with good ethics and high quality.
To be such a teacher, the most fundamental requirement is to have "love", fully penetrate love into daily work, and use love to educate, infect and enlighten students. To this end, the school has carried out the theme education activity of "making education full of love". Every teacher is required to pay attention to the needs of students, that is, to pay attention to the development of each student; Pay attention to every student's emotion and emotional experience; Pay attention to the moral and personality cultivation of every student; Pay attention to the cultivation of each student's innovative spirit and practical ability; Strive to create a studious, enterprising, United and lively learning atmosphere so that every student can receive quality education. Respecting students' personality means respecting every student, especially students with mental retardation; Respect students with poor academic performance; Respect students with shortcomings and defects; Respect students who disagree with themselves. Corporal punishment and corporal punishment in disguised form are prohibited; Do not humiliate and laugh at students; Don't scold the students loudly; Don't criticize students at will in public, let every student walk with his head up. Appreciating the progress of students means appreciating the uniqueness, interests, hobbies and specialties of each student; Appreciate every student's even small achievements; Appreciate the efforts of every student; Appreciate the kindness shown by every student; Appreciate every student's questioning of textbooks; Appreciate every student's self-transcendence; Let every student enjoy the joy of success.
President zhangyan said that a teacher who is truly loved by children must be the most human. We firmly believe that when we naturally dedicate our love to students, students will not only regard us as teachers, but also regard us as friends, mothers or fathers.
In the past 80 years, although the school has been renamed several times, its motto of "diligence, innovation, civilization and cooperation", school spirit of "unity and cooperation, seeking truth and being pragmatic", teaching spirit of "rigorous and realistic, diligent and tempting" and style of study of "loving learning, thinking, being brave in exploration and being pro-practice" have not changed. The school tradition has been well continued and developed. Especially in recent years, the school has been successively rated as a provincial-level demonstration school of audio-visual education, a provincial-level demonstration school of primary and secondary school libraries, an advanced charging unit of primary and secondary schools in the province, a municipal civilized unit, a municipal ecological environmental protection demonstration unit, a municipal safety and comprehensive management demonstration unit, a district-level civilized unit, a district-level primary and secondary school code of conduct demonstration school, an art education demonstration school, and a district-level school-based research demonstration unit. In the concept of running a school, the school always seeks the development of teachers and students. Therefore, serving the development of teachers and students and letting them experience the happiness of education is the purpose of running a school. In the wave of new curriculum reform, the school follows the strategic thought of "education should face modernization, the world and the future", and strives to implement the party's educational policy, which is guided by three aspects, so that students can develop in an all-round way in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, beauty and labor, and cultivate students.
First, build a harmonious team to practice the new curriculum concept.
There are 7 young English teachers in Erjing No.2 Middle School English Group, all of whom graduated from junior college or undergraduate course, with strong teaching ability and level. In the years of education and teaching, they shed hard sweat, made their own contributions and accumulated rich experience in education and teaching. As the English group is a United and uplifting group, and every teacher in the English group has a strong sense of responsibility and dedication, they can be independent in all activities and work carried out by the school, can unite and cooperate, and have high cohesion. Therefore, it enjoys a good reputation in this region and has won many awards. Because the school attaches importance to English teaching, the teaching and research activities of the English group are carried out very frequently and orderly. In order to further improve teachers' professional quality and correctly understand the new curriculum concept, the school distributed learning books such as Outline of Basic Education Reform, English Curriculum Standards and Interpretation of English Curriculum Standards to every teacher, and discussed the common problems in English teaching at present. Hold regular teaching seminars. Teachers attend a teaching seminar once a month, invite foreign teachers and peers to observe and exchange activities, and organize teachers to attend classes in various schools and provinces and cities for many times, which broadens teachers' horizons and increases their knowledge. Encourage teachers' self-growth, and provide various conditions to help teachers improve their education and teaching level, so as to improve their comprehensive quality. Because only when the overall quality of English teachers is improved can our English teaching achieve remarkable results.
Second, explore new evaluation methods and pursue personality development.
Based on "striving for talents in the new century", the school attaches great importance to English teaching and strives to build a school education brand featuring English teaching. The teaching objectives of English in primary schools are: to stimulate students' interest in learning English, to cultivate students' good habits of learning English and to help students build their self-confidence in learning English well; Enable students to gain a perceptual knowledge of English, lay a solid foundation of pronunciation and intonation, and acquire preliminary English listening and speaking ability, so as to prepare for continuing to learn English well. The school pays attention to cultivating students' English listening and speaking ability and students' comprehensive ability to use English. English classes are offered from the first grade of primary school, so that children can begin to acquire basic English listening and speaking skills. Guiding students to learn to study independently and cooperate with others, the famous educator Mr. Ye Shengtao said when discussing the essence of education: "It is really useful for a man to turn some essential things into his own flesh and blood, form permanent habits and practice them all his life." It can be seen that while teachers impart knowledge to students, it is more important to guide students to master learning methods and skills, help students form the ability of autonomous learning, and let students develop actively. In 200 1 year, with the approval of Shenyang Institute of Educational Science, the school officially launched the research on the municipal project "Improving students' autonomous learning ability and letting students develop actively". Under the specific guidance of Han Kun, Yu Xiaozhen and Sun Chuang, the scientific research department of the District Normal School, and with the guidance and help of the leaders of the urban teaching and research section, all the experimental personnel of the school research group have achieved good development and results after two years of study and continuous exploration. In order to create a good learning atmosphere and make students change passive acceptance into active participation, teachers create a harmonious, equal and sincere teaching atmosphere, give students smiles and encouragement in teaching, give them special care and enhance their self-confidence. Let every student realize that learning is a process of communication and enjoyment. Everyone can have different opinions, some of which are correct and some are incorrect. This is a very normal thing. Students who think positively and speak positively sometimes think wrong or say wrong, but the students give a friendly laugh and the teachers give them respect and encouragement. So they became real masters of learning. The research of this topic is of far-reaching significance, and our English teachers have made a qualitative leap in education and teaching.
The school strives to create the characteristics of English teaching in primary schools, and truly "no one has me, and people have me new". The new curriculum pays more attention to students' development, evaluates their process and improves their comprehensive quality. In March 2003, the school began to study and implement formative assessment in some classes. The main means adopted by the school in the formative evaluation process is to establish a student growth record bag for each student to carry out formative evaluation, which can comprehensively and dynamically pay attention to every learning process of students and show their performance in the daily learning process. Its achievements not only reflect the evaluation of its emotional and strategic development, but also advocate the participation and evaluation of students themselves, teachers, classmates, schools and parents. The scientific application of formative assessment can effectively detect students' language development and trends, and reveal students' individual emotional state and strategy application in learning. The introduction of formative assessment is conducive to the full implementation of English teaching objectives, the overall improvement of students' English ability and the formation of sound personality, and the sustainable development of students. Formative evaluation Formative evaluation greatly enriches and develops the means and methods of teaching evaluation. Reflect that students are the main body of learning and evaluation, protect students' self-esteem and self-confidence, show respect and concern, pay attention to individual situations and needs, pay attention to students' subjective initiative, and stimulate a proactive attitude. Formative evaluation strengthens the diagnosis and development function of evaluation, and weakens the selection and elimination function of evaluation; Strengthen the internal incentive function of evaluation and weaken the external incentive and pressure function of evaluation. The integration of formative assessment and teaching is conducive to promoting teaching, the growth of students, the improvement of teachers' teaching ability and the development of the overall education level of the school. Our school has realized the humanization of educational environment and the modernization of educational management, and its running level is first-class. Erjing No.2 Middle School is aggressive, pioneering and innovative, and finally has its own characteristics in the exploration. In September, 2004, he introduced his experience in the seminar of three northeastern provinces, which was praised and praised by the delegates and colleagues.
Third, create an English atmosphere and improve students' quality.
The purpose of English learning in primary schools is to cultivate students' interest in English learning, develop good study habits and strategies, and lay a good foundation in language and listening and speaking by taking advantage of their age. Psychologists and linguists point out that children learn Chinese not only by imitation or mechanical repetition, but by constantly "internalizing" phonetic rules and creatively using language through contact with phonetic materials, which requires us to create a rich language environment and let students acquire language naturally through a large number of contact with linguistic materials. Therefore, in our English teaching, we should pay attention to creating a rich English language environment, stimulate students' interest in learning English, and make English teaching "combine in and out of class". English morning reading exercises are arranged every Wednesday, and all classes read English together. Every Thursday afternoon, extracurricular activities are set as an important position for oral English communication. Here, students have no formality in class, only relaxed and natural work. Teachers use the school's voice classroom and network classroom to organize students to watch an English VCD related to the content of the textbook. At the same time, the school also attaches great importance to carrying out regular English teaching activities, so that students can contact and learn English in the activities. In addition, the school often carries out a variety of English activities, such as English reading, English handwritten newspaper competition, English calligraphy competition, English dialogue competition, etc., hosted by different teachers. Activities are also colorful, including English composition contest, English speech contest, English speech contest, quiz game, etc., which create opportunities for children to show their talents. Every Christmas, the English teacher always arranges various English programs for the students, and the students always respond positively. Improve students' interest and level in learning and using English to communicate. Students not only increase their knowledge, broaden their horizons, develop their intelligence and personality, display their talents, but also cultivate their sense of autonomy and innovation.
Fourth, harvest fruitful results and realize characteristic education.
In recent years, teachers and students of this school have actively participated in various English activities held inside and outside the school. Under the organization and guidance of English teachers, the students of this school have achieved fruitful results in participating in various national competitions and activities in districts, cities and provinces, and their comprehensive English application ability has been continuously strengthened. For example, in the oral contest for primary and middle school students held in our district, five students in our school won prizes respectively. Among them, Zhang Xuejiao performed extremely well and was selected to participate in the city competition and won the special prize. According to the proportion of the school population, there were only two places in the school that participated in the Shenhe District Hundred Words Competition. Our selected students, Jia Ding and Zhang, won the first prize and the second prize respectively. From 2000 to 2005, 26 students won the first prize, 62 students won the second prize and 83 students won the third prize. The school won the excellent organization award. Each of our teachers won the excellent guidance award.
The English teacher of this school not only guides teaching to participate in activities, but also actively participates in various activities and obtains certain honors. For example, Mr. Li Xin and Mr. Shan Yingping have participated in audio-visual education, recording and broadcasting, and won provincial-level quality courses. Mr. Sun Hong has won the first-class quality courses in the city, and the teaching plan he compiled has won the first prize in the city. And the municipal audio-visual and audio-recording classes that Cui Nana participated in were well received by the judges and won awards. Professor Teng Yong's English subject won the first prize of excellent courses in the district. In the first and second English teachers' basic skills competition in our city, 1 English teachers won the all-around first prize in the basic skills competition, and three won the single prize for the second time. Every teacher in the English group has won many provincial and municipal excellent thesis awards. In addition, Mr. Sun Hong was rated as an advanced teacher, Li Xin and Cui Nana as excellent league members, Cui Nana as a backbone teacher, and Li Jing and Li Xin as excellent apprentices. Sun Hong and Zhang Ying were rated as excellent teachers and apprentices, and Wei Song and other teachers were rated as excellent classes and class activists respectively. In addition, we participated in the first and second district-level English situational performances and English poetry competitions, and won the first prize and the second prize respectively. Teacher Shan Yingping was hired as the host and was well received by everyone. Even if our honor is won, it condenses the sweat of every teacher in our English group, and also makes Beijing No.2 Middle School go further on the road of English characteristics.
"The Xiongguan Road is really like iron, and now it is one step away from the beginning." There is still a long way to go to build an "educational brand". In the future, we will increase the investment in English teaching and the pace of reform, deepen the reform of education and teaching, highlight the advantages of English teaching while implementing the new curriculum standards, and build the English education brands of the two universities.
