Abstract

Activity-based method in English reading teaching in senior high school is put forward in the new National English Curriculum Standards for Senior High School (NECS). With the development of the times, the demand for hundreds of thousands of senior high school English teachers is changing, because educators stress a great attention to the application of the modern information technology and activity-based method. Therefore, around how to apply English activity-based method in the reading teaching in high school, this paper designs three learning activities to address the problems of the traditional teacher-centered teaching and the knowledge-orientated leaning. The result of this study can penetrate the consciousness of practical meaning into the frontline teachers by fully understanding the new conception and implementing it based on their own teaching needs.
