Abstract


English picture books, as popular extracurricular reading materials, have gradually become an important option for teachers to strengthen students’ English ability. How to effectively connect English picture books with elementary school English textbooks to improve students’ English level is one of the focuses of this paper. With a certain quantity of literature review and a conducting of a survey, the elementary school English textbooks (Yilin Version) may suffer the problems of being out-of-date, the lack of corpus as well as authentic English language for communication. Thus, this study provides the principles and solution for selecting proper English picture books for elementary school teachers as extended teaching materials to associate with their teaching.
