A Study of Figurative Teaching in Primary and Middle Schools

The cognitive and psychological characteristics of primary and middle school students show that the visualized and specific knowledge closely related with the practice and personal interest can be more easily studied and internalized by students. And the figurative teaching can make the form of knowledge specific, and transfer the knowledge into the context related with students. Therefore, the knowledge can be more easily felt, transmitted, expanded and extended, and hence help students infer more from only instances. It can clarify our comprehension of the figurative teaching to understand the connotation of figurative teaching, analyze the teaching significance, students’ request for teachers and issues which should be noted in such teaching.
