中文摘要：当今社会，英语作为我国对外开放和与各国交往的重要工具，其地位也越来越深入人心。而随着我国2001年英语课程在全国城乡小学中的普及，英语的地位更加举足轻重。怎样指导学生进行科学合理的小学英语学习，这就需要我们研究和学习小学英语教学法，并根据学生的特点和教学内容采取合适的教学方法,如此我们更容易激发学生的学习兴趣，取得良好的课堂教学效果。情境教学法就是其中一种具有代表性的教学方法，在小学英语教学中起着至关重要的作用。本文就情境教学法的起源与发展进行了详细的阐述，并在此基础上论述了情境教学法的定义与理论依据，使我们更进一步认识情境教学法。情境教学法在小学英语教学中的应用不仅具有积极的影响，还存在着消极的一面，本文在分析其利弊的基础上，为如何正确的使用情境教学法提供了解决方法。
