With the development of quality-oriented education and issuance of new curriculum standards and actualization of new curriculum , modern instructional technology has been implied into education, becoming the breach of the new round of course and teaching reform. However, in face of the advanced technology and pedagogical methods, the teachers of primary and middle schools feel confused and puzzled. It is believed that the solution to their confusion not only relies on their mastering of advanced pedagogical methods and modern instructional technology, but also on employment of a model which can provide practical instructions with the potential of development and creativity. That means it is more essential to study models of teaching based on the idea of integrating Information Technology(IT) into curriculum.Through large amount of literary survey and two years' tutelage of teaching in the experimental schools(from April 2004 to now), it is found that the implication of IT in primary and middle schools is only limited to presentation of teaching contents, while instruction model of integrating IT into curriculum is rarely studied and poorly regulated. What's more, foreignlanguage teaching ignores the nature of language--communication, separates fromcultivation of students' thinking ability and development of their multiple intelligence. As a result, for solving this problem, a communicative model of English teaching in the primary school is established with the implication of the Interactive White Board(IWB). Based on the theories of Multiple Intelligence and Inborn Language Sense, it integrates ideas of new curriculum reform and successful experiments of integrating IT into English teaching by means of deduction and induction.The study also discusses the result of use of the new model according to the students' participation and development degree. More importantly, IWB is employed, which is regarded as a major medium in the future classroom teaching and learning.Establishment and improvement of the model is indebted to the action research of cooperation between the experimentalist and the teachers of experimental schools. Through the classroom observations, diaries, teachers' reflections, interviews with teachers and students after class, case study and questionnaires, the data is collected for improving the model and providing the beneficial experiment for integrating IT into English teaching in the primary school.
