2.Positive effects of music Music, as one of the oldest forms of art, has many positive effects.It is closely related to peoples’ life.First music is a great language package that bundles culture, vocabulary, listening, grammar and a host of other language skills.Second, music not only can control the rhythm of human body, but also has a direct influence on human brain.Music can cheer up a person, make a person full of high spirit, and even bring out a person’s active mood.So it can help the brain memorize things more quickly and help to keep them for a much longer time The third, as Duan Ruiling(1997)ever mentioned that “students’ big attainment in music, or high music intelligence, has a positive influence on their pronunciation.”

3.Some connections between music and English learning Music and language have some features in common.Such as stress, tone, pauses

and rhyme.Sounds are the roots of both music and speech.Both of them are from the process of sounds, and are used by their authors or speakers to convey a message.Beside music has a great positive effect on the development of English skills.“The higher one’s music intelligence is, the more sense of rhythm of spoken English he has.According to Fonseca Mora(2000)” , music nature of language influences an English learner’s pronunciation and even the whole process of his English study.Additionally, the relationship between listening and speaking can not be ignored.Language input comes before language output.Listening is a process of information input.While speaking is a process of information output.In other words, music is a kind of language input which helps the learner to store and convey all kinds of information.4 Some advantages of English songs 4.1 English songs can arouse interest and heighten confidence Everyone likes songs.English songs are enjoyable and attractive because of their affective power.Songs can create an atmosphere that makes people feel relaxed.So, the students will not feel so anxious or shy to speak English as they are attracted by the interesting music.As we know interest is the best guide.When students feel enjoyable, their interest can be easily stimulated.If in the course of learning, teachers teach some songs with part of the language rules, the students will participate in singing actively, therefore this kind of activity would help the students to memorize the language materials.By singing English songs, the interest to learn English is aroused.At the same time if those who are learning English can sing in English, they will have the feeling of success.This success is just the motivation to learn English and drive them to learn more.It can also rise students’ confidence.When teachers find some students are lacking of the confidence to speak English loudly, teachers can use this method to let these students sing English songs and to encourage them to speak out English bravely.Thus the confidence of the students would be more easily heightened.4.2 English songs can strengthen memory and accumulate language materials.In the language learning a lot of knowledge need to be remembered specially.It will take a lot of time to read and recite mechanically.After some time, the knowledge will all be forgotten.If we write songs with these language rules or choose suitable songs, we will find it is easy to remember.The language in the songs may be not written for particular language learning.But it provides more chances for the students to contact with English.The more English knowledge they contact, the better their spoken English is.When students learn the words or language points in a song, the words or language points will be very easier to be remembered for they appear in their brains again.In the revision lesson, we can strengthen students’ memory by singing songs and they will summarize language regularity.Besides, singing English songs is the course of accumulating language materials.They learn words, phrases and all kinds of expressions from songs.In people’s daily life songs are more natural than language;songs like can come into people’s hearts quietly and naturally and accompany people’s lives.When students listen to more songs they will speak or sing out without thinking and use these words, phrases and expressions fluently.Moreover the language learning from the songs will not be forgotten.And even these songs will accompany students’ lives.With the improvement of language level, they will understand the lyrics and master the language naturally.Here is another example:

As is known to all, the United States has fifty-two states, and many of the names of these states are not so easy to pronounce accurately and remember well.While Susan Nipp’s song The United States can give some help because it contains all of the fifty-two states in the lyric: “The United States, the United States, I love my country the United States, There’s Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut and Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, and Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri…” As songs are always full of emotions and rhythm, singing aloud with the help of the melody and the musicality of language is useful for memorizing words.4.3 English songs are good for learning pronunciation and rhythm.Listening to and singing English songs as more as possible contributes much to learning accurate pronunciation, intonation and rhythm of spoken English.From English songs, we can get lots of phonetic knowledge, such as, change of length of vowels, pauses plosives, lose of plosives, sound linking, weak-forms, assimilation, stress, rhythm and so on.Linguistic researches have already shown that every language has its own intonation and rhythmic.According to Fonseca Mora, music and language have common features;they are stress, tone, pauses and rhythm.Here is a simple song Come `and `See `My `Family in which sound linking is reflected.“Come `and `see `my `family, ︶

`Under `the `old `apple `tree!︶

`This `is `my `father.`How do you do? ︶

`Sit `down `and `have `a `cup `of `tea `with `me.” ︶︶

In this song, the technique of sound linking is so obvious that we can make use of it to achieve fluency that is an important factor in spoken English.4.4 English songs are good for students to control grammar In English teaching, grammar is an important part and the students sometimes feel bored to learn grammar.So if teachers can combine some grammar principles with songs, it would be a good way for the students to identify and remember the principles.Take this English song “yours and mine” for example:

“Look at around and you will see, All the things belong to you and me.Look around and you will find, This whole world is yours and it’s mine.Every bird, every flower, every tree, they all belong to you and me.”

From this song students should understand how to use “me, you, mine and yours.And these words also can be changed to them, theirs, him his, her, hers, and so on.Then the students can use all of them.4.5 English songs are a source of aural input English songs are a kind of especially good listening material.Compared with some English test listening materials, they are more interesting, motivating, attractive and unforgettable.They are never dull.As is mentioned in this paper, listening is closely related to speaking, and more language input is helpful for more effective language output.Listening to English songs as often as possible is in some way good for the improvement of speaking ability.4.6 English songs contain amounts of comprehensive language knowledge English songs contain a lot of language knowledge.This mainly reflects in words, phrases, idioms, expressions, sentence patterns, and also spoken grammar.Actually, spoken language is not merely a variant of “correct” written forms.In spoken English, we can find the widespread utilization of ellipsis.For example, we can often hear sentences in English songs like “Don’t know why, don’t know why…” which has no subject.The subject(maybe “I”)is left out here.This kind of ellipsis phenomenon occurs frequently in oral communication.As we know, in English study, there are so many words, expressions, and even rules of spoken grammar to remember and then to use freely and correctly;and usually they seem to be so dull or difficult.In spite of this, for effective oral communication, it is still quite necessary to master as many as possible.Then learning English songs may be a not bad choice, because lyrics of English songs contain a large vocabulary, sentence patterns and spoken grammar.Besides, words in English songs are often simple and vivid, and most of them are those used in daily life of the western people.Last but not the least, as lyric embodies the development of society, we can get new words and expressions easily and quickly.New words often come along with the progressing of society.Some words are given more meanings or an entirely different meaning;some are not used any more or are used just on a few special occasions.As new age brings new things, by learning pop songs, we will be able to get the newest and most modern words and expressions.4.7 English songs carry rich foreign culture

Introducing songs into language learning has incomparable effects in introducing social backgrounds and cultures of English speaking countries.“As Laroy said, ‘songs are a very traditional learning aid.Learning through songs can actually be described as being very natural.This naturalness is demonstrated by the fact that in all cultures singing songs has always been one of the most wide spread ways for children to learn.Songs have always accompanied important events in life and have transmitted a good deal of traditional culture…” Many English songs have existed for a long time, they can tell us much information about the culture of a country and the history.Speaking good English needs some background knowledge of English-speaking countries.Take the English songs Silent Night Holy Night for example: “Round young virgin mother and child!” “Shepherds quake at the sight!” “Christ the Savior is born!” “Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.” All these sentences tell us the famous foreign holiday---Christmas Day.From this song, we can learn many useful words about Christmas such as “Virgin Mother”, ”shepherds”, “Christ the Savior”, “Jesus”, etc..So we can remember all of them easily and keep them in mind for a long time.In the song Dance Carol, there is such a sentence: “Easter would come when Christmas is done if lent…” From this sentence, we can know the holiday---Easter, and the important knowledge: Easter comes after Christmas.Thus we can remember this very easily and keep it in mind for a long time.From another song Rain, Rain, Go Away, we can learn that the special geographical position of England leads to large amounts of rainfall and changeable weather.So, the English greet each other like this, “Lovely day, isn’t it?” Once we know about this, when we greet people in English we will never say like Chinese, “Have you eaten?” or “Where are you going?”.Therefore, to speak more authentic English, we have to know much about western culture, which can help to avoid making stupid mistakes in real communication with the Western people.5.The methodology of using English songs to teach English 5.1 The selection principles of English songs In modern world, music is everywhere;songs are available almost everywhere.So it is very easy to touch English songs.When we use English songs to serve teaching.We should pay attention to some aspects

First, the lyrics should connect with the content of teaching.For example, when we teach the English number, the song “ten little Indians” would be the best choice.Second, choosing songs should accord to the character of age and psychology of learners.Only when we choose songs by thinking about these factors can the learners receive the great achievement in English learning.Teachers should choose the songs according to the students’ English level.Some English songs are longer and more difficult, which is not good for low level learners.Like children’s songs Colors of the Wind, My Golden Sun, My Little Table, etc.is good for children to learn.And songs like Eyes on Me, Yesterday Once More, Big Big World, etc.is good for adults to learn.Thirdly, teaching English songs should be timely and in the right quantity.In addition, teaching songs should have distinct aims, after singing a song the students would know what language point they can learn from the song.For example the song “Head and shoulders” is a good example.The lyrics are: “head and shoulders, knees and toes, knees ands toes.Eyes and ears and mouth and nose, head and shoulders knees and toes, knees and toes.” After learning this song the students should understand what a countable noun is and what is an uncountable noun.So the aim of learning is obvious.5.2 The steps of teaching English songs For English teachers, English songs are also a very good aid of helping students to improve their English ability.Teachers can use different teaching aids like: the tape recorder, the computer and etc.to teach the new song.Before teaching the song teacher could ask some questions according to the lyrics such as: “What words can you hear from the song?” “What is the theme of the song?”.“What happened to the people?” Teachers also should give students some background information about the song which would help students to understand the song.Here introduce some steps of teaching English songs.The steps are: Step1.Listen for the first time and try to think about the theme of the song.Step2.Listen for the second time and third time, try to make out every word and phrase as well as possible.And at the same time pay attention to word pronunciation and sound linking.Step3.The forth time, looking at the lyric of the song and this time focus on the rhythm, especially the words that stress falls on.Step4.Sing the song by following the tape or MTV;and learn the rhythm.Step5.Read out aloud the whole lyric, and especially pay much attention to some good words, phrases and sentences and try to learn them by heart.Step6.Sing the song with full passion as similar to the original singing as possible and try to sing the whole song correctly and fluently.Step7.Evaluate or retell the song;express inner feelings or introduce the song to others.These steps above are suggested mainly for improving English pronunciation, to master English rhythm, and then to improve spoken English.But in order to make more progress, large amounts of listening, imitating and practicing is needed.6.Conclusion From above, English songs play an important role in memorizing, pronunciation.And It helps arouse learners’ interest.It has a great effect on the development of English skills.Using English songs to enhance English skills can be a good choice.Various themes and rich background knowledge in English songs offer a good source for learning English.Also songs enrich students’ knowledge about English speaking countries, such as the history, culture and their value.Therefore, it is an effective way to make use of English songs to get rid of students’ “Chinese accent”.With English songs as a teaching aid, the learners will be able to improve their English.And it’s a kind embodiment of teachers’ comprehensive teaching skills.References 1．赵颖、李爱华.音乐和英语单词记忆 [J].大学英语，2003，6，P40 2．Fonseca Mora.Foreign language acquisition and melody singing [C].ELT Journal 54, 2000, 2, P150 4．裴正薇.音乐智力对英语听说的影响 [J].西安外国语学院学报，2004年第12卷，第3 期，P37 5．石兰.英语口语节奏分析 [J].江苏教育学院学报（社会科学版），2001年第17卷，第3 期，P89

篇2：英文歌曲英语教学

[摘要]歌曲以其独特的韵律和流畅的歌词深入人心，能够引起学生的共鸣。因此，在英语教学中，教师应结合学生活泼爱玩的特点，将歌曲元素引入课堂中，使教学气氛更加轻松，同时激起学生的学习兴趣。

无论是在新课导入还是教学活动中，英文歌曲都可以在短时间内活跃课堂气氛，激发学生兴趣。英文歌曲在英语教学中的应用，能激发学生对英语学习的兴趣，对提高英语教学质量也有极大的帮助。那么，在英语教学过程中，教师应如何巧妙地利用英文歌曲来提高教学质量呢？

一、体验歌曲美感，激发学习兴趣

歌曲是艺术形式的一种，教师应根据学生的生理和心理特点，在英语教学中引入歌曲元素，能够培养学生对学习的积极态度并激发学生学习英语的兴趣。歌曲是人们情感体验的表现形式，它可以抒发人的各种情绪，如喜、怒、哀、乐等。旋律优美、流畅的歌曲可以陶冶学生的情操，在分享的过程中，感受到音乐的美感，激发学生的兴趣，从而使学生爱上英语。

例如，在英语教材1A Unit 9《Happy New Year》的学习中，教师可以选择一些与新年相关的英文歌曲来活跃课堂气氛，激发学生兴趣。如“Planet New Year”这首就非常适合用来导入，这首歌旋律清新优美，歌词简单，适合学生欣赏。歌曲作为一种艺术，可以给学生美感教育，以此来陶冶学生的性情。

兴趣是学生学习过程中最好的老师。一旦学生对英语课程产生了兴趣，那么学习起来就会特别轻松，不仅学习态度会有所改善，学习效率也会得到提升。教师用歌曲来激发学生学习兴趣，是新型教育模式下教学方式的改变，与传统的教学方式相比，新的教学方式更适合学生进行学习。

二、多听多学歌曲，提高口语能力

俗话说：“书读百遍其义自见。”

口语作为一种必要的交流技能，必须频繁地进行练习。英语口语也是一样，只有多听、多练、多说才能使口语能力得到提升。那么，英文歌曲对于口语能力的提高有什么作用呢？我们不难发现，学生在刚开始接触英语时就让他们练习口语会有些困难，这时教师若利用英文歌曲，可以减轻学生学习口语的压力。

学生在刚开始接触英语时，学习的口语就是打招呼时要用到的基本语言。由于学生没有英语基础，接触起来会有些困难，此时教师用一首“Hello song”就可以有效缓解这个问题。虽然这首歌很短，但是旋律优美，歌词简单，歌词中包括了“你好，你好吗？我很好，还行，我很不好”等日常用语。教师利用这首简单的英文歌曲，可以帮助学生练习基础口语。

课堂教学中，教师引导学生多听、多学英文歌曲对学生口语能力的提高有很大的帮助。英文歌曲以音乐的形式来展现，学生更容易接触，也更乐于去学习。学习一首英文歌曲，不仅可以记住它的歌词大意，还可以激励学生去探索发现英文歌词的语法和语义，学习英文歌曲是提高学生英语口语能力的方式之一。当然，在歌曲的选择上，教师要尽量选择适合学生的歌曲进行学习，避免一些消极、复杂的歌曲出现。

三、运用歌曲歌词，强化词汇教学

词汇教学在英语教学过程中占据着非常重要的地位。词汇教学是英语教学的基础，课堂教学中，教师应如何利用英文歌曲来加强英语词汇教学呢？我们都知道，歌词是由一个个英文单词组成的，所以学生在学习英文歌曲时会对歌词中的单词印象深刻，以此来达到加强词汇教学的目的。

例如，“三只小猫”这首英文歌曲，旋律自然、动听，歌词也较为简单。在这首歌曲中，学生可以学到lost，begin，cry，pie等单词，教师在教学过程中引导学生去学唱英文歌曲，是提高学生积累词汇的方式之一。同时，词汇的加强是在潜移默化之中的，正是出于学生对英文歌曲的喜爱，才能激发学生学习词汇的兴趣，这样，学生就会开始注意歌词中的单词，逐渐积累更多的词汇。

课堂教学中，教师用英文歌曲来加强学生的英语词汇，是一个简单有效的方法。英文歌曲不仅能够营造出轻松愉悦的教学气氛，还可以在无形中帮助学生积累更多的词汇。

?而言之，英文歌曲是英语教学中的法宝。因此，在英语词汇教学中，教师要多运用新颖的教学方法，既可以提高课堂教学质量和学生的口语交际能力，又可以调动学生的学习积极性。

篇3：英文歌曲与中学英语教学

一、运用歌曲, 学字母

只要我们听过中文的字母歌和英文字母歌的人都知道, 通过学字母歌, 我们可以在那欢快的音乐声中不知不觉地记住26个字母。在学英文26个字母时, 我们英语教学中还要求学生掌握A, E, I, O, U这五个元音字母。其实这五个元音字母也可以通过教英文儿歌来记。

教学实例:

二、运用歌曲, 巧记新单词

众所周知, 越是英语学不好的学生越怕记单词, 也越记不住单词。通过唱英语歌曲, 易于激发学生的情绪和想象力, 在无意识状态下可以收获较好的教学效果。也因此避免了学生在学习和记忆语汇时感到枯燥乏味。如在教七年级上册的人体五官名称head, face, shoulder, legs, nose, eyes, mouth和形容词big, small, round, wide等单词时, 我先教课后的Let’s chant, 教学实例:

Let’s chant

I see a round face, just like mine.

I see big eyes, and the shine.

I see a small mouth, with a smile.

Ah, it’s a monkey’s face, just like mine.

然后再教歌曲“Head and Shoulder, Legs and Feet”。

Head and Shoulder, Legs and Feet

Head and shoulders, legs and feet,

Legs and feet, legs and feet.

Head and shoulders, legs and feet.

Eyes, ears, mouth and nose.

歌曲那欢快的节奏深深地吸引了学生, 同时可以让全体学生站起来, 边学边跳, 边触摸与英语歌中相匹配的自己的各个身体部位, 就这样在旋律中不知不觉的学习, 从而激发学生的积极性, 学生很快就掌握了这些新单词的发音。因此记住这些单词就容易多了。

三、运用歌曲, 学习语音

语音教学是英语教学的一个重要方面。通过语音教学, 学生不但可以正确发出新学语种的语音, 而且可以进行言语交际。如在教学生元音因素/u/音时, 可以利用以语音为内容的歌曲。如歌曲“I WISH I KNEW”中的歌词含有单词Knew, do, would其中的字母”o”和字母组合ew, ou都发/u/, 因此我们可以用这首歌

I WISH I KNEW

I wish I Knew what I should do.

I wish I Knew what I should do.

What I should do.

I wish I Knew what I should do.

I would it if I wish I Knew what I should do.

I wish had a friend or two.

I wish had a friend or two.

Not one but two.

I’d be happy if I had a friend or two.

A friend like you

I wish had a friend or two.

A friend like you

其实有关与语音有关的歌曲也很多, 我们应该有利地使用资源, 把歌曲带进语音课堂, 消除学生学音标的枯燥和疲劳, 让学生高高兴兴、轻轻松松地学语音。

四、运用歌曲, 学习时态

英语中的每一个句子都离不开时间, 因此英语的八大时态不仅是我们英语教学的重点, 而且还是难点。在教学中我们也可以运用歌曲来辅助教学, 活跃课堂, 注意动词形式, 了解时态。如我们在学现在进行时的时候, 我们可以先教“Are you sleeping?”这首歌, 让学生区别动词的形式和句子结构:“主语+be+V-ing”, 对时态有了初步的了解之后, 再学习现在进行时。通过唱这首歌让学生在愉快的空气里记住现在进行时的句子结构, 这样学生更容易记忆, 教学效果更佳。

事实上, 不但在教学中可以用现成的英文歌曲, 而且还可以把一些语法结构和用法编成顺口溜, 让学生唱读所编的顺口溜可以让学生记得更快且不易忘记。比如我们在学习一般过去时的时候我们可以用以下的顺口溜:

一般过去时, 陈述过去事, 动词要用过去式;

肯定句变否定句, didn’t加在动词前;

一般疑问句很简单, did提在主语前,

特殊疑问句也不难, 疑问词加在一般疑问句前。

五、运用歌曲, 渲染情境

篇4：英文歌曲与大学英语教学

【关键词】大学英语 教学 英文歌曲

音乐是人类最美丽的语言，同时曾有研究表明，音乐能够使大脑调到最佳状态。人在特别放松的时候，大脑最开放，最能接收新来的信息。因此，要想激发学生的学习动机，唤醒学生主动学习的意识，教师需要给学生提供轻松愉快的学习氛围，让学生充分享受学习过程中乐趣，使学生感受到学习是快乐的，自主的。如何能够在大学英语教学过程中让学生感受到这一轻松快乐气氛呢？

一、英文歌曲对大学英语教学的作用

当前的大学英语教学主要是以课堂为主，以教师的课堂讲解为主，久而久之，学生会对这千篇一律的教学方式感到厌倦，会觉得课堂枯燥乏味。大学英语教学不仅仅是大学英语课本教学。在教学过程中，教师应该充分利用多媒体，融入英语文化，采用多样化的教学方法，改变枯燥乏味的教学手段，使课堂生动有趣。英文歌曲的内容往往涉及的是西方社会文化、宗教、自然、爱情等人类永恒的话题，对现代生活酸、甜、苦、辣的直接描述，使青年一代的喜怒哀乐得到体现，这能引起青少年的共鸣。因此，英文歌曲一直深受广大青少年的欢迎。在大学英语教学过程中，教师根据课本内容，选取合适的英文歌曲，将其运用到大学英语教学中，这不仅可以丰富教学内容，同时也可以增强学生的学习兴趣，缓解课堂的气氛，从而大大提高了教学效果。

二、大学英语教学中英文歌曲的运用

1.英文歌曲的分类和选取。英文歌曲主要分为八大类：（1）乡村音乐 Country music；（2） 流行音乐 pop music；（3）蓝调 Blues（布鲁斯）；（4）摇滚 Rock music；（5）嘻哈 Hip-Hop；（6）爵士乐 Jazz；（7）电子音乐Electronic music；（8）拉丁音乐Latin music。其中乡村音乐和流行音乐最受学生们的喜爱。这些音乐的旋律优美，题材广泛，意境和象征意义丰富。通过歌曲的旋律和歌词，可以了解不同时代国家的文化背景，也可以不同程度的表达学生的内心世界，梦想追求，抒发情感。根据课本内容，选取合适的英文歌曲是也是学习了解英美文化的有效途径。例如：《新标准大学英语1》Unit 5 All you need is love，此单元教师可以选取关于爱情的英文歌曲：Yesterday Once More，As Long As You Love Me，My Heart Will Go On，Just One Last Dance等；《新标准大学英语1》Unit 10 Environmental matters，此单元教师可以选取关于环境的英文歌曲：Heal The World，We Are The World，Earth Song等。另外，教师也可以适当的选取经典歌曲，例如：Sound of Silence，Unchained melody，Say you say me 等。

2.英文歌曲在大学英语教学中的运用过程。以《新标准大学英语1》Unit 5 All you need is love，教师选取《Just one last dance》为例。将英文歌曲运用到英语教学过程中可以通过以下几个步骤来实现：

（1）试听。教师讲英文歌曲播放给学生，学生静静地欣赏，了解歌曲的旋律和意境。

（2）填空。教师可以将歌词部分挖出，让学生边听边填空。

We meet in the night in the ______ café （Spanish）

I look in your______ just don't know what to say （eyes）

It feels like I'm ______ in salty water （drowning）

A few hours left 'til the sun's gonna______ （rise）

tomorrow will come an it's time to ______ （realize）

our love has ______ forever （finished）

how I wish to come with you

how I wish we make it ______ （through）

Just one last dance

......

通过填空的方法，学生不仅可以理解歌曲大意，也练习了听力。对生词的出现，学生可以通过前后歌词的意思来推测，歌词中词汇和句子的重现率高，歌曲内容容易记忆，这样既提高学生的学习兴趣，也扩充了学生的词汇量。教师可以对生词进行讲解，对歌曲文化背景做适当的引入，从而丰富了英语文化知识。学生因为歌曲气氛的渲染，会自主的去学习和掌握。

（3）学唱和模仿。学生听完第二遍后，对歌曲的内容和意境有了一定的了解，这对学生学唱歌曲有很大的帮助。在这个阶段，教师播放歌曲或者大声的教唱歌曲，学生小声跟着学唱。最后，教师播放音乐，学生模仿英文歌曲。对英文歌曲的模仿，学生必须发音清晰，语音语调正确，对连读，失去爆破等掌握牢固。因此，学生不仅仅只是学唱歌，老师必须对学生的语音语调进行纠正。我们还可以选取班上小小歌星的活动来带动学生的热情和积极性。通过歌曲的练唱，哑巴英语的状况可以得到解决，学生的口语和听力也在此过程中得到了很大的练习，师生互动也得到了相应的体现。

听英文歌曲不仅仅可以陶冶情操，更重要的是可以通过对歌曲歌词的理解和掌握，提高学生的学习兴趣，扩充了词汇量，加大了学生对英美文化的了解；同时还可以增强师生感情，营造轻松愉快的学习氛围。所以，教师选取适当的符合主题的英文歌曲，将其运用到教学中去，对大学英语教学有着积极的促进作用。

篇5：英文歌曲英语教学

一、在课前征询同学的意见，整理大家所喜爱的英文歌曲，提高同学们的积极性和主动性

在讲课文的导入部分时，根据这个单元的课文内容和语境，选择较适合的英语歌曲进行搭配，当然这些歌曲也是同学们所喜爱的和耳熟能详的。例如：讲Wealth，SuccessorLove这篇文章时，我会搭配BackstreetBoys的歌曲AsLongAsYouLoveMe，其旋律琅琅上口，而且也体现了本文的主旨Loveisthemostimportantofall，让同学们能够更易理解课文的内容；讲MichaelJordanandMe时，我会选择R.Kelly专门为乔丹写的，并由他亲自演唱的歌曲IBelieveICanFly，在教同学们唱的时候，注意其中的一句歌词IfIcanseeit，thenIcandoit.IfIjustbelieveit，there’snothingtoit.IbelieveIcanfly，从中让同学们理解努力奋斗的含义，学习MichaelJordan的拼搏精神。在选择学唱的英语歌曲时，还要注意由浅入深，因材施教，对大一的新生们就选一些节奏较缓，旋律轻柔抒情的音乐，比如Enya，CelineDion，ShaniaTwain等的音乐，她们的音乐很适合精听，学生也比较容易模仿，她们的音乐有一部分为纯音乐，可以陶冶情操，另外一部分则为英文歌曲，可以学唱。另外还有一些属于Pop（流行）音乐范畴的抒情慢歌，也是不错的选择，Backstreetboys，Westlife(西城男孩)等组合团体的歌曲是最好的，他们的歌曲绝大多数都是这类风格，琅琅上口，也可以利用学生们对其偶像歌手的崇拜心理。

二、在学唱英语歌曲中巩固和加强学生的英语语法和句型

我们在学唱英语歌曲的时候，不难发现在歌曲中有很多我们常用的语法和重要句型。学生们在学完一首英语歌曲时，常常都能记住其中的英语歌词，在记住歌词的同时，也能记住一些常用的重点句型。例如：在歌曲“ISwear”这首歌词中有这样的句子：Iswearlikeashadowthatisbyyourside。同学们可以在这个句子中注意到like的用法，作为介词“像，如”的意思以及定语从句的用法，shadow作为先行词，that引导的定语从句。

三、学唱英语歌曲还能够帮助同学们纠正发音，提高他们的口语和听力能力

平时同学们在学习英语时，对一些单词在句子中的重读、弱读、连读等不是很清楚。学习英语歌曲可以增强语感，在唱英语歌曲时，自然而然地就纠正了平时一些发音的错误，这也是我们平时所忽视的地方。如歌词followmearound中的“e”和“a”要连读（元音音素+元音音素连读）以及it’slikeIliveathousandlifetimes（前者不连读，因为it’slike和后面的从句属于两个不同的.意群）。英文歌曲对提高学生的语言技能有着积极的作用，有助于学生形成良好的听力、正确的语音语调、富有情感的表现力。

四、学唱英语歌曲时可以让学生积累大量的新词汇

在高职英语教育中，很多同学在牢记大量新词汇方面都存在着问题，有不少同学今天记住的单词，一两天过后就遗忘了，这也成为了同学们学习英语的一道普遍难关。所以我向同学们推荐利用学唱英语歌曲的方法来牢记单词。这样不仅能够快速地记忆单词，还能够把单词牢牢记住，当你唱一首英语歌曲时，那首歌的英文歌词自然就能一一浮现在脑海中，这样使记单词的过程既不枯燥，而且还不易忘记单词，使记忆的周期延长了，也能体现出寓教于乐的乐趣。

篇6：英文歌曲在中学英语教学中的应用

英语的教学过程，我们不仅只停留在知识层面上的教学，更重要的是让学生感受到英语情感的教学。教师应以同情心，爱心，责任心，美感的体验去唤醒学生的同情心，爱心，责任心，美感。学习英文歌曲对于英语学习有很多的有力影响。英语歌曲教学是一种艺术型教学方式，在英语教学中，适当地把英语歌曲引入课堂教学，不仅能消除疲劳，活跃课堂学习气氛，激发学生学习英语的兴趣和动机，而且能促进语言的输入、内化和习得，从而培养学生自主学习英语的能力。

我仅从以下几方面来谈谈如何运用英语歌曲来为我们的课堂服务。一 用英语歌曲作为导入，创设丰富的情景，同化学生的情感

例如，我们在讲what do you think of game shows?这一单元时，为了激发学生学习英语的兴趣，在上课开始前可以带领学生听一首与上课内容有关的英文歌If you are happy.在欢快的气氛中放松心情，训练学生的口语表达能力和对英语的兴趣。而在学习It’s raining!这一课时，我们可以播放“How is the weather ?”这首英文歌来作为本课的导入，即自然，又能直接进入主题。也让学生熟悉了询问天气的另一种表达方式，What’s the weather like ? 二 考试过后，用英语歌曲来激励学生，给学生学习英语的信心

每次考试后，都有人欢喜有人忧，成绩好的学生沾沾自喜，成绩差的学生垂头丧气，我就给他们讲歌手史蒂夫 旺德 的故事，鼓励我的学生听他的歌。在奥巴马访华欢迎仪式上，中国青年歌手组合羽泉与来自北京大学，清华大学中国大学生，以及正在北京语言大学学习的美国留学生，60人共同演唱了美国歌曲《That’s what friends are for》用歌词传递我们中国人的热情好客，奥巴马手很放松的放在餐桌上，很愉悦的表情，这首歌铭记脑海是因为史蒂夫 旺德。早产的旺德出生后被放入暖箱，因暖箱供氧过量而永久失明，不过旺德从小就表现出对音乐的热爱，11岁时便会演奏100多件乐器，还生出一副好嗓子，旺德佳作迭出，使他赢得了许多殊荣，其中包括25次格莱美大奖以及1984年凭借电话诉衷肠获得的奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲奖，他的成就使我们汗颜，很多失败的借口无言说出口，旺德的《That’s what friends are for》歌词，Keep smiling, keep shining, knowing you can always count on me for sure.That’s what friends are for, for good times and bad times.I’ll be on your side forever.1 That’s what friends are for.(保持你的笑容，光彩焕发，请你相信，你永远都可以依靠我 那就是朋友相处之道，无论是快乐时光还是苦难时刻，我永远都在你左右，那就是朋友的相处之道)的寓意更是值得推敲，朋友，真心相持，肝胆相照，避风的港湾，给你一个时刻可以停靠的肩膀。

三 通过英语歌曲培养阅读能力和口语表达能力

很多英语歌曲的歌词很优美，通过学唱英语歌曲可以培养学生的阅读能力和口语表达能力。譬如，在让学生欣赏电影歌曲My Heart Will Go On时，教师可以事先准备好阅读材料和相关的问题，让学生带着这些问题阅读一篇介绍电影Titanic的文章，再让学生在优美的乐声中答题，最后要求学生用英语讨论这部电影的情节，进行英语口语训练。一另外，教师要注意选取恰当的歌曲，比如学生喜欢的、易于接受的、节奏欢快的歌曲，尤其是流行歌曲或电影插曲，效果更佳。四 通过英语歌曲学习语法

在语法教学中，若英文歌曲运用得当，也会收到事半功倍的效果。虚拟语气是中学生较难掌握的一项重要语法项目。在语法教学中，如果英文歌曲运用适当会得到事半功倍的效果。如以“If You Are Happy”为例，这首歌曲可以进行真实条件句练习。这首歌中这种句子反复出现多次。学生通过自己的努力学习和训练能够得到他们所喜爱的英文歌曲的歌词,满足他们学有所用的要求，切身体会感受学习的成就感，激发学习动机，培养听英文歌曲记录歌词的习惯，使英语学习和爱好结合起来。五 利用英文歌曲进行听力训练

学生在长时间的听力训练过程中，精神一直处于高度紧张的状态，如不进行调节，教学效果就不会尽如人意。由于歌曲具有较好的精神调节的作用，所以我们如能适时播放一些优美的歌曲，学生的精神和情绪都能得到放松。当然听歌并不是单纯地放歌给学生听。另外，如果学生不了解背景知识，不理解歌词的内涵，并不能提高学生的学习兴趣。听歌之前教师可以先向学生介绍背景知识；可以将歌词编成填空练习，让学生填空；可以根据学生的水平自主决定哪些词空出，一般是主语、谓语和宾语，学生听完做完之后再核对；也可以再次放音让学生进行自我校对，最后老师讲解给出正确答案。如我们 2 在学习How was your weekend?这一节课时，可以选择一首非常优美的英美歌曲“Yesterday Once More”来让学生欣赏并在欣赏的过程中，填入屏幕中出现的歌词的过去式。既缓解了学生学习的疲劳感又使他们感受到了英语学习的乐趣。六 英文歌曲的选择

英文歌曲能为英语教学提供丰富多样的资料。但以英语歌曲教学并不是很容易把握的，因此选择恰当的英文歌曲对教学来说很重要。旋律要优美,要符合中国的社会文化形式；歌曲所传递的信息应易于理解；歌曲的词句应非常清晰，能够适合进行语言训练；歌曲的内容应符合学生的水平或能满足特定的教学目的；另外所选歌曲应是健康向上、教人自信自强、激发人们奋发向上的励志歌曲。
