近几年来由于初中适龄儿童正处于人口低谷,再加上城市化进程的加快、大量农村人口流入城市导致农村中学生源锐减。部分原生源较好的学校出现教师富余,为不浪费教师资源,部分学校采取了小班化教学。这种不得已的小班化被专家称为“自然小班化”。就“自然小班化”对初中英语教学产生的影响进行了分析,并提出了相应的对策。 In recent years, due to the low population of school-age children in junior high schools, coupled with the acceleration of urbanization, a large number of rural population flows into the cities and the rural secondary school students have sharply reduced their sources. Some primary sources of good schools appear teacher surplus, in order not to waste teacher resources, some schools took a small class teaching. This kind of last resort was called “natural small class” by experts. The impact of “natural small class ” on junior high school English teaching was analyzed, and the corresponding countermeasures were put forward.
