Abstract
Based on SLT and with the help of classroom observation, interview and tests, the research intends to answer 3 questions. First, can teachers have an awareness to apply SLT to the aural-oral lesson? What are their particular ways to apply SLT to the lesson? Second, can SLT improve students’ listening and speaking competence? Third, what problems or difficulties do teachers have in the lesson? The results of the research show that most of the junior middle school English teachers have a strong consciousness of applying SLT to aural-oral lesson, and attach much importance to cultivate students' listening and speaking competence. Teachers actively adopt various teaching strategies and methods to cultivate students' listening and speaking competence. Teachers use multimedia, objects, and games, etc to create situations, to activate classroom atmosphere, and to arouse students' learning interests. Students have got great improvement in listening and speaking. However, due to the limitation of teachers, there are some problems existing in the aural-oral lesson.
Key words: Situational Language Teaching; Aural-oral teaching; Create situation
