It requires that English teachers constantly remind them and try to use humor in the classroom to attract them. At the same time, liveliness is also the expression of students’ innovative, so that the primary school teachers should be in the right way to guide their students and turn the active aptitude into creative transformation. When the students put forward a good idea teachers should praise them and encourage them to implement their own ideas. In class, teachers can use some English games and English songs appropriately to attract students’ interests because children has a natural connection with games, introducing songs and games can also cater to their characteristics of the activeness and to stimulate interest in their English learning. After schools time is the student’s world, we should let them have the time to bathe the joy of childhood instead of using more homework to restrict them.
