Abstract

At the present stage, grammar teaching in junior middle school is mainly based on the explanation of grammar rules, focusing on the correctness of grammar form and ignoring the meaning and practical use of grammar itself; in addition, there are also the problems of low efficiency of grammar classroom and lack of motivation of students. In order to change this status quo, this paper combines specific teaching cases, takes language use as the guide, considers the form-meaning-use of grammar as a whole, and constructs a junior high school English grammar teaching model based on the three-dimensional dynamic view of grammar, i.e., presenting the target grammar with multimodal parts of speech, perceiving and grasping the three-dimensional system of grammar as a whole, internalizing the knowledge of grammar by progressive exercises, deepening the use of grammar rules by outputting them in communication, so as to improve the students’ grammar awareness.
