Abstract
Task-based language teaching emphasizes ‘‘learning by doing’’, with characteristics of effective activities, active participation and the practical application of knowledge, which is the teaching method strongly recommended in the new curriculum standard. However, for a long time, due to the constraints of the English language environment, teaching perception, the language proficiency of teachers, the examination system and other factors, the application of task-based language teaching is not satisfactory in primary school English teaching. Therefore, the thesis expounds relative task-based language teaching theories and researches, analyzes the existing problems in primary school English teaching, and with the combination of the teaching practice mainly explores some strategies for a suitable and effective task-based language teaching mode.
Keywords: Task-based language teaching; primary school English teaching; new curriculum standard
