中国学龄前儿童第二语言教学策略浅析关键词： 幼儿? 英语 ? 第二语言 ? 认知摘要学前儿童英语教育活动的兴起与“英语热”有密切关系，而“英语热”或“双语热”的产生又有着深刻的社会背景。在当今全球信息化的时代背景下，随着国际间交流与合作的不断增进和加深，如全球经济一体化，“地球村”和“地球人”概念的提出，英语逐渐成为现代人必备的交流工具，也成为现代人自我发展的基本条件之一。自中国加入WTO以及申奥成功后，中国人学习英语的热情不断高涨。我国现已将开设英语课的起始年级提前到小学三年级，一些有条条件的地区已经从小学一年级就开设英语课，这种低龄化的趋势不仅波及到小学，同时也在幼儿园产生了广泛的影响。现阶段，社会各界对“幼儿英语教育是否适合，可否全面开展”这一问题仍存在争议，但我国各大中小城市的幼儿园都已普遍开设英语课程却是不争的事实。本文的研究重点不设定在是否对幼儿开展英语教育的问题上，而是通过对海口市幼儿园幼儿英语教育现状的客观描述，调查和分析海口市幼儿英语教育的目标、实施途径和内容，以及语言环境的相关情况；以我市幼儿园为例，在了解我市幼儿英语教育现状的基础上，重点研究幼儿园的英语教育途径与方法，从发展心理学的角度分析其英语教育方法是否遵循幼儿身心发展规律，主要以皮亚杰认知建构理论和认知发展理论、第二语言习得与学习等心理学理论为理论基础，研究如何充分利用幼儿语言学习的优势，对幼儿第二语言学习采取恰当的教学，让幼儿产生对第二语言学习的兴趣，建立对第二语言的敏感，从而促进儿童语言整体能力(母语和英语)的发展和综合素质的提高。 Abstract Preschool English education for children is closely connected with “English Learning-rush”, and the rush of English learning or bilingual learning is deeply affected by the social development.
