A Research On The Application Of The Implicit Stratified Teaching Method To English Reading Class In Junior Middle School From The Perspective Of Input Hypothesis

The basis of language learning is reading.Reading can not only help students expand their vocabulary and enrich their language knowledge,but also improve their judgment,generalization,comprehension and thinking ability in the process of reading.Reading teaching is the key and difficult point of English teaching.the traditional reading teaching ignores students’ individual differences,students can not be promoted accordingly,and even affect students’ interest in learning.According to the different characteristics of different students,The implicit stratified reading teaching is stratified according to teaching objectives,classroom activities,after-class assignments,after-class evaluation,etc.,which can not only protect students’ self-esteem,but also meet the needs of different students,so as to promote students’ all-round development;From the point of view of protecting students’ emotion,The implicit stratified reading teaching carries out scientific and reasonable stratification according to the differences of students’ different reading levels,and sets different task objectives for different implicit stratified students.the corresponding task teaching activities are designed so that students at different levels can develop in their own "zone of proximal development".The study,based on classroom teaching practice,Krashen’s "i+1" input hypothesis theory,taking 100 students as the research subjects from two paralleled classes of the second grade,carried out a well-planned five-month action research on stratified reading instruction,supplemented by the methods questionnaire and interview,The study was designed to answer the following three questions:(1)Whether learners’ reading interest of all levels can be aroused with the instruction of implicit stratified reading?(2)Whether learners’ reading speed of all levels can be accelerated with the instruction of implicit stratified reading?(3)Which layer of students’ improvement is the most obvious in the implicit stratified teaching?The results show that implicit stratified reading instruction guided by the "i+1" language input hypothesis,could effectively improve learners’ reading speed and achievement scores.in terms of students at all levels,low-level students who have lost interest in following reading classes because of long neglect in the traditional "one-size-fits-all" teaching model are paid attention to under the implicit hierarchical instruction,have something to do in class,and gradually participate in class.Desiring and enjoying the classroom,so the improvement in the teaching experiment is the most obvious,followed by the high-level students and the middle-level students.From the questionnaire and the interview results,we can see that under the guidance of recessive stratified reading,the reading motivation and reading interest of the stratified students are ameliorated.In general,the recessive hierarchical instruction of reading teaching has a significant effect on improving students’ comprehensive reading ability.
