Abstract: This thesis aims to explore how to effectively apply the scaffolding theory to senior high school English writing teaching. Based on scaffolding theory, the author analyzes the current situation of traditional English writing teaching in senior high school. In addition, sticking to the idea of student-centered teaching, the author illustrates how to create appropriate scaffolds in real class to offer students help. The conclusion of the paper is that the English writing teaching method guided by scaffolding teaching theory highlights the teacher’s leading role and students’ dominant role, which in turn effectively arouses both students’ interest in writing and improves their writing competence as well. However, teachers should pay attention to the selection and control of scaffolds. It is necessary for teachers to provide appropriate scaffolds in proper conditions.
