Research on the Development and Design of Fine Arts and English Integrated Teaching in After-School Service of Primary School

In July 2021, the Ministry of Education issued the “Opinions on Further Reducing the Burden of Homework and Off-Campus Training for Compulsory Education Students” (referred to as the “Double Reduction”) . The “Double Reduction” policy pointed out that it is necessary to focus on improving students' after-school service levels and providing them with diversified learning content. However, the current content and form. of after-school services are relatively dull, and the developmental needs of students are not being well met. Therefore, this article, based on the actual situation of after-school services in primary schools, combined with theoretical knowledge of education and teaching, and based on literature research, classroom observation, and teaching practice, proposes four basic principles and a framework for the integration of art and English in the development and design of after-school service teaching. Among them, the four basic principles that should be followed in the design of integrated teaching development in afterschool services include: Clear educational goals should be set around the improvement of core literacy; The teaching content should be multi-level and based on the students' reality; Optimize the design of teaching process and emphasize students' autonomy; Establish diverse evaluation methods and attach importance to students’ development. At the same time, based on the actual situation of students, the art and English integrated teaching framework, which focuses on primary school art and English teaching content, includes three aspects: curriculum system, unit design, and classroom teaching. Through the proposal of teaching design cases, it is hoped to provide some reference for the development and design of integrated teaching in actual after-school services.
