Situational context is an effective way to active classroom atmosphere，which can arouse student’s interest in English learning. At present there is, however, a major concern of Chinese students’ poor oral English owing to the lack of environment and application. Based on constructivist learning theory and Piaget’s theory of cognitive development, this paper studies the problems existed in the creation of situational context in primary English class and explores the methods to establish various kinds of environment. Teachers are expected to use the ways which are introduced in this paper to create situational context to improve teaching effects.
