A Comparative Study on the Design of Reading Teaching Activities for Novice and Experienced Primary School English Teachers: Based on the “View of English Learning Activities”

Abstract

From the perspective of English learning activities, based on the three dimensions of the classification framework: learning and understanding activities, application and practice activities, transfer and innovation activities, this paper compares and analyzes the design of teaching activities in reading class between a novice teacher and an experienced teacher. Based on research results, this paper puts forward the following suggestions: 1. Teachers should pay attention to different types of activities and balance the proportion of different activities. 2. Teachers should focus on the use of transfer and innovation activities, and pay attention to the cultivation of students’ thinking quality. 3. Novice teachers should learn more from experienced teachers and attach importance to the connection and progression of activities.
