Abstract

As an important part of high school English classroom teaching, writing teaching is one of the important ways to improve students' English learning ability. As for the current high school English writing teaching, there are still many problems in classroom learning. For example, the students' writing efficiency is not high, the number of words in the classroom writing practice is not enough, off-topic, and writing interest is not high are the practical problems that high school teachers need to solve urgently.

Highlights

The traditional writing teaching mode is monolithic, the interaction between teachers and students is formalized, and the teaching quality is not high
Such writing has a single teaching method, and has a narrow range of writing topics, ignoring students' interests and actual life experience. This teaching method is not conducive to improving students' writing ability. This practice damages students' interest in English writing and makes students feel that writing is not to meet their own needs for expression, but a simple learning task
In the teaching activities, teachers can infiltrate the articles and dialogues in class into the writing teaching, so that in the writing class, students will have a sense of familiarity with the knowledge they have learned in the past, thereby reducing the psychological impact of English writing difficulty, which is conducive to students' better writing activities

Summary

Problems Existing in the Teaching of English Writing in Senior High School

One of the main problems in English writing teaching in senior high schools is that the teaching methods are too single. The teacher gives a composition proposition, and asks the students to write, and asks the students to use the recently learned words or grammar knowledge in writing. Such writing has a single teaching method, and has a narrow range of writing topics, ignoring students' interests and actual life experience. This teaching method is not conducive to improving students' writing ability This practice damages students' interest in English writing and makes students feel that writing is not to meet their own needs for expression, but a simple learning task. Students will naturally not consider how to express their ideas clearly and think about English writing skills, as long as there are no mistakes in basic knowledge, they will feel that the task is completed
