ABSTRACT

This paper probes into the current problems in primary school English teaching, pointing out that the phenomenon of surface, fragmentation, and patterning often occurs in the teaching process, and pays too much attention to language knowledge, ignoring the value of cultural education. This paper points out the necessity of interdisciplinary English teaching in primary school, and tries to integrate the knowledge of English and other subjects to construct interdisciplinary teaching design through the research of primary school English teaching practice. This paper puts forward a set of systematic interdisciplinary project implementation plan, including creating real situations, enriching teaching activities, integrating discipline knowledge, strengthening interdisciplinary themes, emphasizing the combination of learning and thinking, promoting inquiry learning, designing comprehensive assignments, and improving practical ability. Through the research on the design and implementation of interdisciplinary teaching, this paper shows how interdisciplinary project-based teaching can enrich language learning resources, break through the problem of ignoring cultural education in traditional English teaching, and achieve the goal of cultural education. It not only helps to develop students' English language skills, but also cultivates their cultural understanding. This paper also holds that interdisciplinary project-based teaching can effectively improve the drawbacks of traditional English teaching, make the teaching process more vivid and coherent, and better stimulate students' interest in learning, hoping to provide useful experience and suggestions for the improvement and promotion of interdisciplinary English teaching in primary schools in the future.
