Conclusion (29)References (30)1. IntroductionWriting is a primary way that individuals can communicate with others, telling others what they think and express their emotions, thoughts, hopes, dreams and opinions through writing. According to Erika Lindermama (1987: 11), writing is a process of communication that uses a conventional graphic system to convey a message to a reader. Teaching writing can be enormously rewarding and valuable because using written English is a form of power.With the development of society and economy, English teaching at senior high schools must be reformed. In accordance with the reforming of basic education, English curriculum for senior high schools calls for reformation, which led to the issue of the New English Curriculum Standards in 2001. And the new reformation of English teaching in English Curriculum Standards(Ministry of Education, 2003) requires different bands of English levels at different stages. And students are required to reach the three bands of objectives, from Band Six to Band Eight. Concerning writing skill, for senior high school graduates, the Band-8 objective requires that the students should be able to retell the passages or write summaries according to the texts read, be able to write paragraphs or reports based on the words or diagrams given, be able to write paragraphs with coherent discourses and good structures, be able to write accounts of events or express ideas and attitudes clearly, and be able to compose fluently with standard formats.The New English Curriculum Standards defines writing as composition in its true sense and designs a higher objective for English teaching, which is highlighted inthe requirement for the ability of writing or composition. So as a teacher, we should pay special attention to English writing teaching to meet the need of this instruction reformation.2. Existing Problems of English Writing Teaching2.1 Problems in teaching program and methodsTraditionally, middle school students don‟t have to take any composition courses and few teachers have been received any systematical writing teaching program. Leaving ten or twenty minutes for written exercises and assigning a certain amount of written homework have become a convention in teaching English writing. Most of the teachers just teach writing in the intensive reading classes, without sparing any special time for the purpose of instructing writing. After students hand in their compositions, the teacher only reads the compositions and points out the errors then returns the graded papers to students, either hoping that they will study the corrections in order to eliminate those in students‟writing----the obvious mistakes in spelling, punctuation from their writing in future, or requiring them to correct their own errors and to hand in the paper for a final check on the grammatical accuracy. Generally speaking, what most teachers focus on are the accuracy of vocabulary and grammar and structures while they are grading or commenting on students‟ papers. Few of them pay particular attention to coherence or clarity. And a great many of teachers seldom writecomments on the student s‟ papers. They just give students a mark or a grade.Of course there are some difficulties for teachers to teach English writing. The difficulty in writing teaching is how to correct students‟ papers. Error correction is an important part of teaching. In most of senior high school, teachers are required to correct all of the students‟ homework because of examine-oriented system. They must spend a lot of time to grade or correct the students‟ homework. However, that is not the only problem. As is know to all, one of the features of Chinese education is that middle schools usually have large class size with a total of more than 60 students in a class. An English teacher is usually in charge of two classes and some even have three classes. Thus, it often takes hours for a teacher to correct student s‟ written exercises and it takes even days to correct the composition of a class of more than sixty. This task has become a burden or even a fear to middle school English teachers, so quite a number of teachers are afraid of assigning the students writing task and have to reduce the writing, which affecting the efficiency of composition teaching.2.2 Problems in students’ English writingStudent s‟ problems in English writing can mirror some inadequacies of English writing teaching in the middle schools. As Brown observes, motivation is probably the most often used catchall term for explaining the success or failure of virtually any complex task (Charles, 1984: 116).However, although English is a required subject in China, quite a number of students don‟t show much interest in it, especially in English writing. They even have a fear for it. For many senior high school students, writing is more of an obstacle thanan opportunity. Apart from the purpose to continue their study at college, many of them do not think they need to spend so much time and energy learning to write, for they cannot see the direct use of it. As writing seems difficult and threatening and also dull, they just take it reluctantly, even with fear. For most of them, the only motivation for writing is to pass exams or to finish the tasks assigned by their teachers. As a result, teachers find it hard to motivate their students. There is no doubt that low motivation accounts for students‟ failure to learn English, especially English writing.Another problem is that middle school students are lacking sustained practice of writing because they don‟t have any English writing course at school. General speaking, they don‟t write without exams. Their draft papers are reduced to about five or six in one term, which is far from enough compared to the exercises on other skills like reading and listening. The most serious problem with students is that most of the senior students fail to have a good command of English composition. We all know that practice makes perfect, so how can we ask the students to produce good products without sufficient practice?3. On the Rules of Writing3.1 Definition of WritingThe writing term “writing” may have at least two meanings. One is the act of writing.The other is the more generally recognized meaning: to express ideas andopinions by use of written words sentences. “Writing which involves composing”(Grabe &Kaplan, 1996: 4) means that writing that involves the use of English vocabulary, grammar and text to express ideas in a meaningful and logical way.3.2 The Nature of WritingThe study of language in the twentieth century has tended to concentrate on spoken language. Written language was thought by someone to be spoken language put into written form. Many linguists from de Saussure through to Chomsky, for what seemed like good reasons at the time, neglected the written mode in favor of the spoken. Based on a comparison of oral speech, inner speech and writing, Vygotsky claims that writing is the more abstract and demanding activity. He thinks that we first experience and learn “the skill and partnership of conversation” in the external arena of direct social exchange with other people and develop “oral speech”. Then we learn to displace that “skill and partnership” by playing silently, in imagination, the parts of all the participants in the conversation, and thus develop “inner speech”. Writing (or “written speech”as he calls it) follows on and presupposes the existence of inner speech (the act of writing implying a translation from inner speech). In other words, Vygotsky thinks that writing is a process one learns through social interaction that subsequently become internalized. This, however, contributed to the fact that writing was for a long time neglected area in language teaching. A review of student‟s written work has revealed widespread and serious deficits in writing skills. Many students‟compositions are lacking in ideas and coherence, and also show lapses in clarity and organization. Most students adopt Chinese thinking pattern when writing in English.Furthermore, the assumption that writing is putting the spoken language into written form is only true for activities like taking down dictation or transcribing a tape. But, there are many differences, big and small, between writing and speaking. Biber (1988: 36-7) once commented on the differences writing and speech in the following way: There is no linguistic or situational characterization of speech and writing that is true of all spoken and written forms. On the one hand, some spoken and written genres are very similar to one another. On the other hand, some spoken genres are quite different from one another, as are some written genres. The relations among these genres are systematic, but must be specified in a multi-dimensional space.Only by learning the differences, can people have a complete and exact understanding about writing. Among all the understanding of writing, one outstanding view is the cognitive view of the writing process. Many theorists claimed that writing is a …non-linear, exploratory and generative process whereby writers discover and reformulate their ideas as they attempt to approximate meaning‟(Zamel, 1983: 165).Flower and Hayes‟(1981) model was seminal to this understanding. It suggested that the process of writing is influenced by the task-environment and the writer‟s long-term memory. Its main features are that:A)Writers have goals.B)They plan extensively.C)Planning involves defining a rhetorical problem, placing it in a context,then making it operational by exploring its parts, arriving at solutions andfinally translating ideas on to the page.D)All work can be reviewed, evaluated and revised, even before any text hasbeen produced.E)Planning, drafting, revising and editing are recursive, interactive andpotentially simultaneous.F)Plans and text are constantly evaluated in a feedback loop.G)The whole process is overseen by an executive control called a monitor.To summarize, writing is of great importance. Writing allows people to transcend time or space.3.3 Process of writingWriting is a complicated and painstaking process of language production. Many researchers show great concern on what takes place during the writing process. They observe writers as they write; interview them before and after writing to determine how they dealt with particular aspects of a writing task; or have writers verbalize some of the decisions they are making as they write; examine their journal accounts of their writing process. Several models of writing processes have been achieved.Murray (1980) distinguishes three stages in writing: rehearsing, drafting and revising. Rehearsing, or prewriting, includes finding a topic; finding ideas about the topic, thinking about the topic; letting ideas interact, develop, and organize themselves; and thinking about the audience and the purpose of the writing task. Drafting refers to getting ideas onto paper in rough form Revising involves checking what have been written and making deletions or additions as necessary. Murray‟sModel is criticized by many researchers for looking writing process as three linear and independent stages. For example, revising can occur at any time in the composing process.Flower and Hayes (1980) study the writing process with the “think-aloud”protocol. This activity requires writers to say aloud as much as possible of what they thought while performing a writing task. Protocols obtained from skilled writers make it evident that, although there is obviously a structure to the composing process, it does not correspond to the traditional picture of collecting material, organizing it, writing it out and then revising it. Those procedures all occur, but not in such a linear manner.Flower and Hayes (1980) define three major processes of writing as planning, translating and reviewing. The planning process involves generating, organizing and goal-setting subprocesses. The heart of planning is generating ideas, most of which are ideas for what to write. Some of the generated ideas, however, are ideas for goals to be pursued, and these are stored for consultation throughout the composing process. The translating process involves producing actual text corresponding to information in the writer‟s memory. The function of the reviewing process, consisting of reading and editing subprocesses, is to improve the quality of the text produced by the translating process. The most striking strength of this model lies in its claim to account for the amazing diversity of mental event during composition on the basis of a relatively small number of such subprocesses (Scardamalia & Bereiter, 1986). This is accomplished by a control structure that permits virtually any subprocess toincorporate any other subprocess. The processes and subprocesses can be “recursive”, which means the whole planning process may be called up in the service of editing, or the reviewing process may be called up for the purpose of arriving at an organizing decision.Fig. 2.2: Structure of a model of the composing process (by Hayes & Flower, 1980. Cited from Scardmalia & Bereiter, 1986)It is easy to find that self-regulation holds a prominent position in the language production process. Hayes and Flowers (1980) note that “great part of skill in writing is the ability to monitor and direct one‟s own composing process”. A skilled writer can employ flexibly the self-regulatory skill when composing. He directs the process of composing by identifying and organizing goals and subgoals for what to do and say, and then accomplish these intentions or goals by deftly bringing into play the cognitive process involving planning, sentence generation, and revising. Hayes and Flower posited the existence of a control structure, the monitor, to coordinate these processes.The Hayes and Flower model illustrates that writing is intentional and resourceful. Although the degree of control that individual writers exert depends on factors such as experience, level of knowledge, and metacognitive skills, as well as the writing task and the accompanying social and physical context (Zimmerman, 1989), composing is not a passive activity. The theories underlying self-regulation provide considerable potential for describing and explaining the actions of writers.4. On Scaffolding Theory of English Writing Teaching4.1 Theories of writing teaching4.1.1 The Zone of Proximal DevelopmentWe can‟t make ourselves familiar with the scaffolding theory without the knowledge of the zone of proximal development (ZPD), from which the scaffolding theory was developed. The zone of proximal or potential development is the best-known concept of Vygotskian‟s (1978:86) socio-cultural psychology. It is defined as “the distance between the actual developmental level as determined by independent problem solving and the level of potential developmental as determined through problem solving under adult guidance or in collaboration with more capable peers.”Initially, it was elaborated for psychological testing in schools. Vygotsky (1962) states that testing should be based not only on the current level of a child‟s achievements but also (and mainly) on the child‟s potential development. The actual level of development (level of independent performance) refers to all the functions and activities that a child can perform on his/her own, independently, without the help of anyone else. It does not sufficiently describe development. Rather, it indicates what is already developed or achieved; it is a “yesterday of development”. On the other hand, the ZPD includes all the functions and activities that a child or a learner can perform only with the assistance of someone else. The level of assisted performance indicates what a person can achieve in the near future, what is developing or potentiallevel. It is called “tomorrow of development”. In this scaffolding process, the person providing non-intrusive intervention could be an adult (parent, teacher, caretaker, language instructor) or another peer who has already mastered that particular function. Vygotsky (1978: 86) elaborates it by describing how a teacher or a more advanced peer might provide an explanation to enable a child to attain a higher level of achievement with support. Accordingly, instruction is only useful when it moves ahead of a child‟s development and provides activities that enable the child to rise above himself but are not beyond his capability.A student‟s ZPD is defined as the student‟s range of ability with and without assistance from a teacher or a more capable peer. On one end of the range is the student‟s ability level without assistance. On the other end of the range is the student‟s ability level with assistance. So as a teacher, he/she should try his/her best to stimulate the students‟ potential development, or we can say it‟s the teacher‟s duty to do so and help the students to make full use of their potentialities. But how can a teacher do to prompt the students‟ potential development? What techniques can be used to ensure the transformation of assisted performance into independent performance? That‟s what we are going to discuss next—scaffolding theory.4.1.2 Scaffolding TheoryBefore we discuss the Relationship between scaffolding and ZPD, let‟s acquaint ourselves with the definition of scaffolding. The term …scaffolding‟comes from the works of Wood, Bruner and Ross (1976), which is used to describe the way the adult or more capable peer guides the learner through the Zone of Proximal Development.This will often involve joint problem solving, with the adult-peer gradually withdrawing support as the learner‟s mastery of a given task increases. Originally a scaffold is a nomenclature in architecture. It‟s a temporary framework that supports a building during construction. When the structure is firm enough to stand on its own, the scaffold will be removed. In an educational sense, scaffolding, in the form of coaching or modeling, supports students as they develop new skills or learn new concepts. When the student achieves competence, the support is removed. The student continues to develop the skills or knowledge on his or her own. So what kind of scaffolding will decide how student will develop.Vygotsky identifies four phases of instructional scaffolding. The first phase is modeling, with verbal commentary. The second phase is student imitation of the skill they‟ve seen modeled by their instructor, including the commentary. During this phase, the instructor must constantly assess student understandings and offer frequent assistance and feedback. The third phase is the period when the instructor begins to remove her scaffolding. She offers progressively less assistance and feedback to her students as they begin to master new content and/or process. In phase Four, the students have achieved an expert level of mastery. They can perform the new task without any help from their instructor.The term …scaffolding‟was developed as a metaphor to describe the type of assistance offered by a teacher or more knowledgeable peer to support learning. In the process of scaffolding, the teacher helps the student master a task or concept that the student is initially unable to grasp independently. Of great importance is allowing thestudent to complete as much of the task as possible without any assistance. The teacher only attempts to help the student with tasks that are just beyond his current capability. Student‟s errors are expected, but with teacher feedback and prompting, the student is able to achieve the task or goal. When the student takes responsibility for or masters the task, the teacher begins the process of “fading”, or the gradual removal of the scaffolding, which allows the student to work independently.Now let‟s look at another explanation of scaffolding. “Scaffolding”, Winnips explained to Education World, “focuses on active learning and student choice. The technique works especially well with technology-based learning, in which students need to be more self-reliant. Scaffolding allows them to work self-reliantly while receiving adequate support.” (Net. 1) This is the final goal of instruction: teaching for not teaching.Instructional scaffolding is a teaching strategy that was cleverly named for the practical resemblance it bears to the physical scaffolds used on construction sites. The strategy consists of teaching new skills by engaging students cooperatively in tasks that would be too difficult for them to complete on their own. The instructor initially provides extensive instructional support, or scaffolding, to continually assist the students in building their understanding of new content and process. Once the students internalize the content and/or process, they assume full responsibility for controlling the progress of a given task. The temporary scaffolding provided by the instructor is removed to reveal the impressive permanent structure of student understanding. The purposes of scaffolds are making the task accessible, supportingthe development of expertise (explicit/intrinsic), providing information and advice, encouraging reflection, self-evaluation, and self-regulation, helping students to measure the progress and understanding, and helping students to make decision, explore, and to be …constructive‟.4.2 Relationship between Scaffolding and ZPDThe ZPD characteristic of transfer of responsibility for the task to the student is as the major goal of scaffolding in teaching. In order to qualify as scaffolding, a teaching and learning event should enable the students to carry out the task which they would not have been able to manage on their own, be intended to bring the students to a state of competence which will enable them eventually to complete such a task on their own, and be followed by evidence of the students having achieved some greater level of independent competence as a result of the scaffolding experience (Wells, 1999: 221). The emphasis of the definition is on the cooperation between the teacher and the students in constructing knowledge and skill in the former.Children learn from listening and talking with a more knowledgeable person, but they also require scaffolding through demonstration, and actual participation in the task or activity in a realistic context. Effective teachers know that they cannot leave learning to discover but must structure activities at the just-right level and support learning through conversation, modeling, and active participation in tasks (Pressley, 2002). So during the process of instruction, only when the scaffolding is put up in time and rightly can the children arrive at their zones of proximal development. Inother words, timely and appropriate scaffolding is the base of the zone of proximal development. The students‟ potential abilities can not be developed without effective supports or with ineffective supports.5. Scaffolding Theory-based Writing Teaching5.1 Learning supportsTeaching has a supportive dimension and scaffolding is the term widely used to describe effective learning support. Students require intensive instructional support when learning important skills and strategies that are challenging and in the zone of proximal development. The “scaffolds”provided by a teacher do not make the task itself easier, but rather make it possible for a learner to complete the task with support. But what supports can a teacher offer his/her students to help them finish the task? The support that is given in educational scaffolding comes in the form of modeling, giving students cues, prompts, hints, and partial solutions.The principles are to provide experience of the knowledge construction process, to provide experience in and appreciation of multiple perspective, to create learning tasks that are relevant and authentic, to encourage ownership and voice in the learning process, to embed learning in social experience, to encourage the development of multiple modes of representation, and to encourage self-awareness of the knowledge construction process.Beed, Hawkins and Roller (1991) state that learning supports should include assisted modeling, element identification and strategy naming. Assisted modeling means that teachers provide some coaching and models that enable the completion of the task. Element identification is that the teacher identifies the elements of the desired approach or strategies to help students complete the task. Strategy naming is about the teacher‟s articulation of a relevant strategy and students‟ employment of it on their own.Based on those discussed above, an English teacher can provide the students with the following learning support during English writing instruction so as to help them improve their writing skills gradually.5.2 Steps of organizing an English writing lessonIn a dynamic exciting classroom, scaffolding best occurs in learning situations where the students have the opportunity to share their thoughts through discussion, conversation and support. The gradual release of responsibility model requires variable amounts of assistance. In the first stage, the teacher has high responsibility for modeling and explaining the learning task. In the second stage, the teacher and students share responsibility for learning. Students practice the task, and the teacher gives constructive feedback. When students are ready for the third and final stage, they take on all or nearly all of the responsibility for the work. Teachers who assess students to provide the right amount of challenge and reflect on how they can provide just the right support and its gradual release will have students who attain high levels of achievement.Scaffolding is used in a very wide range of situations. Based on Scaffolding Theory and the Zone of Proximal development, how can the teacher organize an English writing lesson? How can the teacher provide students with helpful learning supports and help them make great progress in English writing? And the most important is that how the teacher can do to make students complete writing without any supports in the end. It can break down into the following steps.Step 1: Dividing the class into groups of four to sixThere is good evidence that, if the tasks are well designed, learners working in groups get far more practice in speaking and participating in conversation in group work than they ever could in a teacher-centered class. While dividing groups, the teacher should provide students with strategy on group division. The groups should not be too small or too big. If there are too many people in a group, it will reduce the students‟ participation in the activity. That is to say, perhaps some of them will have fewer or no chance to express their ideas while discussing, whereas in a too small group, group members are not able to share enough ideas with others. Besides teachers should also consider that each group be made up of boys and girls, and different levels of students. If necessary, students can choose their peers with freeness.Step 2: Group discussion and debateIn this step, students have brainstorming practice. They can express their ideas about the topic given freely, and they make a plan of the writing before they start. In groups, the idea is to generate lots of questions about the topic. This helps students focus on audience as they consider what the reader needs to know. The answers to。
英语教学法教程十二单元Teaching Writing
Task 2 Activity 1: it‟s obviously “writing for consolidating language”. All the Ss have to do is combine the sentence pairs into one sentence and make other minor changes. There is no communication in the activity. Activity 2:it can be considered as “writing for communication” though the situation is an imagined one. If the Ss write truly about the sightseeing possibilities in their locality the activity promotes a lot of communication. Activity 3: it can be considered as “writing for learning” and “writing for communication”. It depends on who the Ss are writing to. If the writing is to be read by classmates, there is no communication. If the writing is to be read by other people, it is communication.
Task 3 Ss should be more motivated to write the things that are more communicative and close to their daily life.
八年级英语教学中常见问题及应对方法
八年级英语教学中常见问题及应对方法Eight Common Problems in Eight Grade English Teaching and Their SolutionsIn the year 2023, as the world continues to be connected and globalized, English becomes a more important language than ever before. Thus, teaching English in middle school, especially in eight grade, plays a crucial role in students' language development. However, as with any teaching, there are certain common problems that arise in 8th-grade English classrooms. In this article, we will discuss eight common problems and offer some practical solutions.Problem 1: Limited VocabularyMany eighth-grade students lack essential vocabulary required for academic language proficiency. This makes it difficult for them to comprehend reading materials and express their ideas clearly and coherently.Solution: Encourage Active Vocabulary LearningIncreasing student vocabulary requires continuous effort on the teacher's part. Teachers can integrate contextualized vocabulary learning into the curriculum to help students retain and apply new words in context. Also, teachers can encourage students to learn actively by reading, finding unfamiliar words, and looking them up in a dictionary.Problem 2: Inadequate Reading Comprehension SkillsMany eighth-graders struggle with understanding texts. They may not be familiar with textual analysis skills, such as identifying themes or detecting author's purpose.Solution: Explicit InstructionTo address this issue, teachers need to provide explicit instruction in reading strategies. For example, teachers can teach students how to preview and predict based on text features and graphic organizers. Additionally, teachers can provide opportunities for small-group discussions, where students can practice and apply their reading strategies.Problem 3: Poor Writing SkillsMany eighth-graders have difficulty organizing their thoughts and presenting them effectively in writing.Solution: Teach Writing StrategiesTeachers can use writing prompts to challenge students to write creatively. Teachers can also teach writing strategies such as brainstorming, outlining, and editing. In addition, teachers should provide feedback on students' writing to help them improve in the future.Problem 4: DisengagementMany students are uninterested in English lessons, and some may even refuse to participate in class activities.Solution: Make English Lessons RelevantTo engage students, teachers can use real-life examples or use current events and trends to make English lessons more relevant. Teachers can also incorporate games and activities to make learning English more interactive and fun.Problem 5: Time ManagementSome teachers may struggle with the limited time allocated to cover all necessary materials.Solution: Prioritizing and PlanningTeachers can prioritize the critical concepts while planning their lesson plan. Also, they can use technology tools, such as online resources, to supplement classroom instruction while saving time in the classroom.Problem 6: Classroom ManagementManaging a classroom with 8th-graders can be challenging since students are becoming more opinionated and independent.Solution: Establishing Routines and ExpectationsTeachers can establish clear expectations for students. They can also set rules and consequences for engaging in disruptive behavior. Teachers should also praise good behavior to encourage a positive classroom environment.Problem 7: Limited Access to ResourcesLack of school resources can affect the quality of English teaching.Solution: Make Use of Available ResourcesTeachers can make use of available resources, such as online educational materials and local libraries. They canalso collaborate with their colleagues for shared educational resources.Problem 8: Differentiated InstructionSince students come from diverse backgrounds, learning styles, and support systems, it can be a challenge to provide differentiated instruction.Solution: Adapt to Individual NeedsTeachers can use formative assessments to guide their instruction and differentiate their instructional methods based on students' needs. Teachers can also use technology, such as interactive whiteboards, to increase student engagement and understanding.In conclusion, English teaching in the 8th grade comeswith its share of common problems. However, by implementingthe solutions discussed above, teachers can significantly address these challenges to enhance student learning outcomes. The key lies in putting continuous effort, being creative in lesson planning, and adapting instruction to meet students' needs.。

How to teach writing
To Improve the Effectiveness of the Teaching of English WritingEnglish writing is generally divided into these three basic process: the thinking, organization and expression. Through writing training to improve their listening, reading and other language skills. Therefore, writing can reflect the integrated pragmatic competence. Writing can improve listening, speaking and reading ability, at the same time, listening and reading skills can also promote the improvement of writing skills. All the language skills are interrelated and mutually reinforcing.Students often have some problems in writing:1. The lack of basic knowledge of language is the first question which exists in the English writing of middle school students. V ocabulary is the basic essential element of English writing. To write an essay or to express their ideas, the students must be sufficient for the basis of vocabulary.2. The grammar is a major problem in the English writing of middle school students.3. the lack of necessary writing skills.4. The expression does not follow the English expressions or thinking habits, resulting in mistakes in writing, called “the Chinese type English”.5. The students does not pay enough attention to English writing, which may be influenced by the teaching ideas, teaching methods, examination mode and other reasons.Having found out the existing problems in students' writing, we must take measures to deal with them. My initial idea is this: teachers should pay attention to the teaching of writing, to put the writing teaching into classroom teaching: to take effective teaching methods, cultivating students' interest in writing, and improve the effectiveness of teaching.The strategies to improve their writing ability.1. use the text learning writing: retell the text: in-depth understanding of the text, based on the interpretation of articles which can encourage students to use their own language and diversified forms of expression to retell the text2 . guide students to strengthen vocabulary and grammar learning3. Rewrite and imitation: let the students recreate according to the requirements of the text from different angles, different persons, different forms of activities , which is an effective way to cultivate students' writing ability.4. the language inputWriting is a process of selection, the output of the accumulation of language material. The ability of language output needs a long period of training, so the teacher should pay attention to the cultivation of the ability of students.5. guide the students to recite classical model, add the color6. pay attention to language output, experience the joy of writingOnly having the language input is not enough, I think, the effective language output is a way to test language learning. Students should observe things around them and accumulate life experience, which will be very good writing inspiration and subject matter, such as writing a diary that is a good habit of writing. In the arrangements for students writing tasks, let students pay more attention to writing the details, including the design, the title of the outline before writing the articles, the topic sentence writing and the logical arrangement etc..In short, in order to improve English writing level, require much effort, not only the teachers’but also the students’. Teachers should realize the importance of the teaching of writing, put the writing teaching into classroom teaching, adopt effective teaching methods, cultivate students' interest in writing, and improve the effectiveness of teaching. Students need two aspects of training, one of whom is the basic language training, to have a solid basic skills such as sentences, translation, using lexical, syntactic knowledge make correct sentences, the second of whom is the writing knowledge and writing ability training, to master the basic party source.。
how to teach reading and writing
LOGO
•Reading for detailed comprehension, whether looking for detailed information or language, must be seen by students as something very different from the reading skills mentioned above. When looking for details, we expect students to concentrate on the minutiae of what they are reading. •One of the teacher’s main functions when training students to read is not only to persuade them of the advantages of skimming and scanning, but also to make them see that the way they read is vitally important.
What kind of reading should students do?
There has been frequent discussion about what kinds of reading texts are suitable for English language students. The greatest controversy has centered on whether the texts should be authentic or not. That is because people have worried about more traditional language-teaching materials which tended to look artificial and to use over-simplified .language which any native speaker would find comical and untypical.

Aims of Teaching Writing
- to understand the nature of writing in reality - to be aware of the problems in writing tasks in existing textbooks - to understand the process approach to writing - to design writing tasks - to master some cohesive ties in writing
Why do we write?
We write for various reasons, such as to convey messages or just to keep a record of what is in our mind.
Reasons why we should get students involved in writing in a foreign language: Writing can give a voice to shy students as writing can serve as a medium through which less confident students can communicate with their teacher. Writing can be less threatening for anxious students as it gives them time to think about their meaning and purpose (Morgan, 2005). Writing can also raise awareness of how language works. Through writing, students will become more familiar with the linguistic and social conventions of writing in English.
教别人写书法的英语作文

You see, calligraphy is all about the art of writing, and it requires a certain level of skill and precision.

So, encourage your student to practice regularly.They can start by copying simple characters and gradually move on to more complex ones. It's important to emphasize the importance of patience and perseverance because calligraphy is not something that can be mastered overnight. It takes time and dedication to develop the necessaryskills.Paragraph 3:One of the key aspects of calligraphy is payingattention to details. Each stroke should be executed with precision, and the overall composition of the characters should be balanced and harmonious. So, teach your studentto observe and analyze the work of experienced calligraphers. By studying different styles and techniques, they can gain a deeper understanding of the art form and incorporate elements into their own writing.Paragraph 4:Another important aspect of calligraphy is creativity.

How To Teach Writing To ESL Students
How to T each Writing to ESL StudentsBy Sarah DrayWriting can be one of the most difficult aspects of ESLteaching. Because of the complexities of writing, manyteachers simply avoid the area, instead concentrating onreading and pronunciation. Writing is, however, essentialto ESL students, especially those in higher levels, andwhile it may be hard to get started teaching it, therewards are more than worth it.Instructions1.Give them lots of things to read. Depending on what their native language is, ESL students may have ahard time grasping the concept of sentences and idea flowing because of the way their native languagestructures stories. By giving them access to rea ding material, you’re showing them samples of what they can do in English and helping them target their writing.2.Choose a type of writing appropriate to the students’ level. Lower levels could write a short Thank Younote, while more advanced students can work on a cover letter to go along with a resume. By choosingtopics that are relevant to their lives as well as their capacity, you’re also encouraging them to bring their own knowledge into the mix.3.Make it a game. Rather than focusing on the grammar side of writing, find activities that require yourstudents to write, such as a PenPal exchange program like IECC, where teachers can connect students and classrooms to people all over the world. While eventually you want your students to write with nomistakes, this could be a great way to encourage writing in shy or hesitant students (see Resourcesbelow).e activ ities and worksheets. Websites such as the ESL Teachers’ Board have a variety of games andexercises you can use to teach writing to ESL students. Examples include helping them compose answers to job advertisements, creating comic answers to letters and writing letters to friends and family (seeResources below).5.Bring sentences for them to complete. Lower-level students may have a hard time formulating ideas ontheir own, so you can push them along by giving them a topic to work of, such as “This summer, I’mhoping…” or “After work, I will…”. Then let them write the rest of the sentence on their own.6.Emphasize the importance of using simple constructions. English can get confusing once you startintroducing lots of commas or other punctuation inside a single sentence. For beginner ESL students, itmay be easier to stick to short sentences without complicated clauses.Tips & WarningsIf your students are resistant to the idea of writing, consider creating a classroom diary. Use a large notebook or a block of paper and ask each student to write something about themselves or their day in the book. This can be a simple sentence or a more elaborated text. This will help students see writing as part of their everyday life, rather than a task to be afraid of.。
