The Application of Phonics in the Elementary School English Teaching Abstract As we all know, vocabulary teaching is an important part of English teaching, especially to the elementary school students. Many pupils think vocabulary is tough to them. And most of the English teachers would like to use the traditional teaching method in their vocabulary teaching. However, the traditional method is focuses on the rote learning but neglects the internal relationship between sounds and letters. Thus the pupils are unable to decode the words. 47742
And phonics is an effective vocabulary learning method to help elementary school students recognize the new words, which is worthy of our efforts. It makes students learn vocabulary in a more autonomous way by establishing the correspondent relationship between letters or letter combinations and the form of words. The study of phonics abroad has made great achievements, but most studies of phonics are conducted among learners in English speaking countries. So it is necessary to know whether this method is useful for our Chinese learners of English.
Owing to the importance of vocabulary learning, and the shortage of applying phonics in primary school teaching currently, the author conducts a collaborative research in a primary school in Huzhou. This study employs the methods of test, class observation, questionnaire, and interview. According to the results, it is clear that phonics can do positive influence in English vocabulary learning. And the data also shows that phonics instruction is better than the traditional vocabulary instruction. The results of questionnaire and class observation also shows phonics is helpful to words recognition. What’s more, the results of questionnaire, class observation and interviews for students show that phonics enhance the interest of pupils to learn the new words of English and students are willing to use this method to get new words in the future learning. The writer believes that with the improvement of phonics by the scholars and experienced teachers, it can be developing faster and wildly used in the mainland of China in the near future.

摘要众所周知，词汇教学是英语教学中的一个重要组成部分，尤其是于初级英语学习者而言。然而，很多小学生皆反映词汇学校对于他们来说非常难。英语教师大多采用传统教学法来教授单词。然而这种教学法注重死记硬背，却忽略了词汇“音”和“形”的内在联系，这就导致了小学生无法对单词进行解码。
“直接拼读法”通过建立字母或字母组合与词形之间的对应关系，帮助小学生自主学习单词。自然拼读法在国外的研究已经取得了丰硕的成果，但其研究大多是针对母语是英语国家的学习者。因此，确认它是否能对我国小学英语学习者学习单词产生积极效应，也就显得尤为必要。
基于词汇学习的重要性，以及目前“直接拼读法”在我国小学词汇教学中研究较薄弱的现状，作者在自己家乡的某教学机构进行了试验研究。研究中运用了测试，课堂观察，问卷调查以及访谈这四种方法来寻求研究问题的答案。通过分析这四种研究方法的结果可以得知：自然拼读法对初级英语单词教学有推进作用并且能提高学生的学习兴趣。虽然自然拼读法仍有一些不足之处，但相信在国内学者的积极研究和完善下，这种教学方法能得到迅速发展以及普及。
