With the advancement of globalization, English has become the lingua franca of international communication. In China, English learning has gradually become younger, and many parents sign up for English courses for their children when they are in the third grade. So, how do you teach a third-grader who has just learned English?
I also have some friends who say that their English is weak and ask me some questions about English. Today, I also officially share some experiences and insights on how to teach third-grade children who have just learned English, and I hope it can be helpful to you!
1. Create a good English learning environment
To learn any language, the environment is crucial. English is unfamiliar to third graders, so it is especially important to create an English environment for them. At home, parents can play English nursery rhymes, stories, and English cartoons with their children to encourage them to imitate and retell what they hear. At school, teachers can set up English corners for students to communicate in English in simulated real-life scenarios.
If you find it difficult to find an English training course that really suits you, you must put in the effort. Each course has its own characteristics, and the training mode is also different. Nowadays, a lot of online English is also favored by many people, and at present, one-on-one training of foreign teachers is a major trend, as long as there is a computer, mobile phone and the Internet, you can take classes anytime and anywhere.

2. Pay attention to cultivating interest in learning
Interest is the best teacher. For third graders, they are curious about new things, but they are also prone to losing patience. Therefore, teaching methods should be diversified, such as games, songs, role-plays, etc., to stimulate their interest in learning. At the same time, teachers should give children positive feedback in a timely manner, encourage them, and make them have positive feelings about English.
3. Teach basic phonics knowledge
Children in the third grade are in a sensitive period of language learning. At this time, teaching them basic phonetic knowledge such as phonetic transcription, syllables, etc., will help them pronounce words correctly and develop a good sense of language. When teaching phonics, teachers should use **, animation and other forms to assist teaching, so that abstract phonological knowledge becomes visual.
Fourth, combined with the actual life of teaching
Language is in life, and it should also return to life. Teachers should try to integrate English into real life when teaching English. For example, when teaching fruit words, you can take out real fruits for students to touch and taste; When teaching orientation words, you can actually use them in the classroom. This not only makes the learning content lively and interesting, but also enhances the children's practical application ability.
5. Cultivate self-directed learning ability
Self-directed learning is a key competency for a child's future development. For children in Grade 3, teachers and parents should encourage them to develop the habit of self-directed learning. For example, assign some simple homework, such as listening to recordings to imitate pronunciation, reading simple English picture books, etc. In addition, children can also be guided to use ** English learning platforms and tools to improve their ability to learn independently.
Regarding the question of how to teach third-grade children who have just learned English, I hope that my sharing and opinions above will be helpful to everyone on the road to English learning!
