1.1 Background of the study

Classroom teaching is bilateral activity of teaching and learning between the teachers and the students, the effect of which mainly depends on the teaching art. Teachers teach for textbook, examination, for knowledge itself.

Instead of saying that designing tasks is a science, it’s more of an art which includes the efficiency and creativity; it greatly stimulates the students' interest in learning, and forms a harmonious classroom atmosphere between teachers and students. As a language teacher, it’s an essential ‘art’ to grasp.

The purpose of writing is to find out more methods designing better teaching tasks, in order to improve students’ comprehensive ability, through analyzing the designing instance of teaching tasks applied in the primary school English class.

During the activities of the task, language is a tool for communication, the value of it is fully demonstrated .The direct feeling of the value on learning English would improve the learning self-consciousness of students.
