The Strategies of the 5E Instructional Model in Junior High School Grammar Teaching from the Perspective of Teaching-Learning-Assessment Integration—A Case Study of the Attributive Clause

Abstract

Teaching-Learning-Assessment Integration is beneficial for cultivating students' core competence, facilitating teachers' professional growth, and fulfilling the fundamental objective of moral education in the English discipline. In teaching activities, the integration of these three elements makes them depend, influence and develop with each other. The 5E instructional model deeply integrates "learning" and "assessment" through its structured inquiry process, including five key stages: Engagement, Exploration, Explanation, Elaboration, and Evaluation. It is effective to develop students' critical thinking and practical abilities. The core value of this approach is to ensure authentic learning occurs within students and transform the classroom into a dynamic space for active knowledge construction. As the foundation of language acquisition, grammatical knowledge serves as both a central component of junior high school English teaching and a key challenge in teaching and learning for both students and teachers. According to the requirements of the "Compulsory Education English Curriculum Standards," this paper explores how to effectively incorporate the 5E instructional model into junior high school English grammar classrooms. It aims to establish a novel Teaching-Learning-Assessment Integration, integrated pedagogical paradigm, providing innovative approaches to grammar instruction while enhancing both the effectiveness and engagement of students' grammar learning.
