1. Introduction

 As society advances, English is widely used in our daily life. Because of the globalization, Chinese people have a strong desire to learn English well. However, faced with the current Examination-Oriented Education system, English teachers have to pay much attention to scores, and thus neglect students’ all-around development. As a result, rote-memorization has become the emphasis in class, which heavily affects students’ interest in English learning. So in order to change the lack of interest, English teachers have used many teaching methods, especially the situational teaching method. With the help of this method, any language communication activities can be realized in special situations. For example, primary school pupils are all in age of 7 years old to 13 years old, they are energetic, active and curious about imitating. Hence, it is difficult for them to focus on the knowledge that teachers are delivering in the class. Based on students’ characters and the realization of the New English Curriculum Standards, we must try to create various academic atmospheres and make it possible for students to get information on their own through different approaches. The situational teaching method meets the needs because it can increase the flexibility and validity of the class, increase students’ interest in learning English and help them get along well with others. 小学英语教学中的情景教学法探究:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_57991.html
